Trust Your Gut: Recent Episodes
Demi Fair
Trust Your Gut, hosted by Demi Fair, dives into the world of the mind-body connection. We explore the emerging science of the gut-brain axis and microbiome, while harnessing the power of intuition and connection to spirit. We dig into nervous system health and trauma, understanding how this is a key piece in our gut-brain and overall health imbalances, and learn new resources for building resilience.
If you struggle with chronic digestive and mental stress, and are tired of trying “just one more diet” to address your symptoms, then this is the place for you.
Sprinkled with personal stories of a lifetime of chronic gut-brain symptoms and a deep exploration of her inner world, Demi is here to help guide you to trust your gut.
Demi is a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (FNTP) and in training as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP).
In 2014, I bought a one way ticket that ended up being 5 years of nearly full time travel. In these episodes I am going deeper into stories of the places I travelled and how it's all interwoven with my gut-brain, trauma, and nervous system healing journey.
My immersion into these different landscapes, and the people and experiences had along the way have been essential to building my experiential learning and embodied wisdom for the work I am doing now, and the person I am.
This is the second episode in this series from my three + months in India.
I hope these stories, learnings, and connections spark something inside of you on your own journey.

Your mindset around your symptoms and overall health matters.
And sometimes just trying to shift your mindset can be really tough, especially if you are dysregulated in your nervous system or have experienced trauma.
So this is a way to bring the body into connection with the negative thoughts you are having, and to establish positive thoughts around your symptoms.
Emotions are a direct line to the body when you bring awareness to where you feel them. That can be more motivating and impactful than just telling yourself to change your mind.

Intergenerational trauma is very important when we are looking at chronic symptoms of the gut-brain and mind-body connection. Trauma can be passed down through three generations and may be at the root of some of the issues, habits, patterns, beliefs, and symptoms we are feeling stuck in.
Tune into this episode to learn about what intergenerational trauma is and how we can begin to address it.

I take a very careful approach to supplements after a history of being too hyperfocused on supplements to heal my gut-brain symptoms. However, there are certain times I find them to be extremely supportive, one in which is during travel!
As I am currently traveling overseas for the next month, I wanted to share what I bring to support my gut-brain health and why during my travels.

I talk a lot about chronic and traumatic stress being one of the largest culprits and root causes of chronic gut-brain symptoms. If you've looked to improve your gut symptoms or anxiety, then you know just how import managing and reducing your stress is.
Often though, people will tell me "but I already took care of my stress" or "but I'm not that stressed." Well, your body may be under more stress than you think. Listen to the episode to find out if that is you!

IBS is so frustrating. It's mostly just a catch all phrase for a doctor to say "I don't actually know what is causing your symptoms." I struggled with IBS-C (constipation dominant) for so much of my life.
The thing is... IBS is a dysfunction of the gut-brain connection. Therefore, how our nervous system is functioning is essential when it comes to IBS. In fact, 50 - 74% of people diagnosed with IBS report having childhood trauma or adverse early life experiences. An incredible statistic that shows just how impactful chronic and traumatic stress is on our gut health, and how supporting the nervous system is such a key piece.

This is a MUST listen. Join Haley and I as we talk about her experience with serious digestive issues that were not fixed by a celiac diagnosis and going gluten free - but rather by looking at deeper aspects of herself. A large part of her healing was through the support of Chinese medicine, which helped her understand what emotional aspects were driving her symptoms, and by connecting more deeply to herself. This led her into becoming an acupuncturist, and she shares her wisdom of this approach to healing with us!
In Chinese medicine, the physical body is not seen as separate from the emotional body, but absolutely intertwined. When looking at physical symptoms this type of healing considers the emotional aspects behind these physical manifestations. This is so important to understand and could absolutely change your life, and help heal your symptoms for good. Understanding how our emotions are contributing to our symptoms and overall health is an important part of the work I do with clients and in my program, and Haley brings such a beautiful guidance to understanding some of this.
Haley DeMarco is an acupuncturist who has a practice in Bellingham, WA. If you have any questions about acupuncture, or want to keep up to date with any information she shares, you can find her at:

If you go to Google and search for how to best support your gut, you will come across some common recommendations: eat a ton of vegetables, eat lots of fiber, take a probiotic, take a prebiotic!
If you struggle with IBS, or have been diagnosed with SIBO, then you'll likely hear to eat a low-FODMAP diet.
Let me break these suggestions down and debunk them - because they aren't all true for everybody!
As mentioned in the episode, here is the list of hearty probiotic species that withstand stomach acid:
Saccharomyces boulardii, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Bifidobacterium animalis, Bacillus coagulans, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus acidophilus
Here is the study I am referring to about taking probiotics with antibiotics: See study here

What exactly causes nervous system dysregulation in the first place?
Seems like everyone and their grandma is talking about nervous system regulation these days. And yes, I am one of them! I have spoken to this as part of other episodes, but I wanted to make an episode dedicated specifically to explaining what causes nervous system dysregulation in the first place. Can you identify your common causes of dysregulation?

So everyone these days is talking about finding the "root" cause. What does that actually mean? In this episode, I break down gut-brain symptoms and what I have come to understand as the true root cause for most of them, and it is not SIBO, dysbiosis, or low stomach acid.
It's so overwhelming to have digestive symptoms and turn to Google to find they could be from so many different sources. You may come across low stomach acid, SIBO, dysbiosis, candida overgrowth, or leaky gut. Maybe you even have tested and found out you do have one of these dysfunctions. However, I don't believe these to be the root issues in most cases. Listen in to understand why!

Symptoms are going to flare. Triggers are going to happen. As much as I wished they would just heal and never come up again, it's not realistic for most people. Healing isn't linear, but rather it's cyclical. I've been having symptoms flare lately in my gut-brain, and I share in this episode how I approach and navigate these flares. This is how we build greater awareness, trust in our body, and resiliency to face stressors, triggers, and symptoms.

Change your mindset, change your life. Think positively. Do affirmations. Live with an abundance mindset. Be in a high vibration to manifest. Create your vision board.
So many of these concepts we hear thrown around all the time in the wellness, spiritual, and personal growth worlds. This can lead to feeling a lot of shame when we are unable to have a positive mindset, when we aren't manifesting our dream life, and when we struggle with our thoughts. This can make us feel like we are not good enough, broken, or just need to "do" better.
Well, let me shed light on to what's really happening that could be affecting your mindset and ability to go after your goals, and what needs to happen first before we can successfully do mindset work.

Talking about weight loss is not something I do, nor it is anything I work with clients on, or promote. Weight has nothing to do with gut health, mental health, or the kind of health and healing I promote. This title is meant to be a little controversial to grab your attention and offer a different idea behind weight loss and diet culture. We have been told forever that we need to exercise more and eat less to lose weight, and we are bombarded with images and messages about what the ideal body type is.
It's all bullshit, and it feeds into so many people developing disordered eating, orthorexia, and body images issues, which I have personally struggled with, and have found to be a very common thing among my clients. Many people with gut issues have become afraid of foods, macronutrients, and can easily develop an obsession with eating clean.
If this is triggering to you to read, I am sorry, and invite you to listen to the episode to understand the message here.

This was such a fun, juicy conversation with musician, energy worker, and truth seeker, Stephanie Carlin.
We talk about her journey through gut issues, and how she overcame them by learning to love herself and listening to her truth. This led her to creating Truth School, a place where trailblazers can unlock the emotions behind their imbalances and diseases so that they can trust themselves, reclaim their Truth, and generate 6-figure incomes.

Oh, bloating. One of the most common symptoms I hear folks complaining about when it comes to their gut. Bloating was the daily norm for me for so much of my life. The morning would start fine but by the end of the day my stomach would look pregnant.
If you experience this you know just how uncomfortable and disheartening it can be. These are the most common reasons behind bloating that I’ve experience in myself, my clients, and in working with gut health and the nervous system. Some of these may be more root cause, and some may be symptoms of a root cause.

This is the first interview airing on the podcast! I talk with Dr. Tawny Kross, a physical therapist who specializes in chronic pain. So much of what she shares about her mind-body approach applies to those who struggle with chronic symptoms.
Dr. Tawny Kross graduated with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Duke University in 2013.
She has worked in a Veterans Affairs hospital for nearly a decade now. Through the course of her practice, she has developed a very comprehensive and integrative approach to PT, which evolved from the necessity of such an approach in her work with the complexities of those who have chronic pain. This includes nutrition, hypnosis, guided imagery, mindfulness among other practices.
Focusing on mental health and being trauma-sensitive is of particular importance, as many of her clients have experienced military sexual trauma. She helps her clients move beyond pain and fear by connecting them with internal motivations, guiding them to see innate strengths and realize their inner healing abilities. She recently started her own business, Kross Centered Care - Integrative PT, Health and Wellness in order to bring her expertise to more people.

I am currently in Mexico for a month housesitting and dog sitting all by myself. It has been a huge slow down for me filled with more solitude than I've had in a long time.
This was something I knew I needed and have been extremely excited about. And it has given me some great insight to my nervous system and the pattern of busy, go-go-go, do-do-do that I learned to keep me safe. I'm uncovering the ways my system tries to achieve safety when I slow down, like loneliness, boredom, and anxiety.
If you also struggle with this pattern, or even if you don't, I highly recommend taking a listen and see what awareness this brings to your own protective mechanisms!
This also includes a really fun spider story! Yay! (I do not like spiders, and they certainly activate my nervous system, haha)!

Today’s episode is all about my favorite topic: the nervous system!
That’s because the health of our nervous system affects every aspect of our life. It is the most important system when it comes to our health and well-being. Especially when dealing with chronic symptoms in our gut health and mental health!
So many things we struggle with in our lives can be linked to our nervous system and how it’s responding to our environment and to threat.
By learning about our own nervous system and how it responds to stressors, we can actually shift the way our system responds to stress and build more resiliency.
In this episode, I will walk you through what our nervous system is, the different components and states of our nervous system, how it operates, and how it responds to different stressors.
You will gain a deeper understand of what each state feels like for you, and if you have any dysregulation that may be contributing to your symptoms, triggers, feelings of being stuck, or overwhelm.

How does the health of your gut affect your mental state? How does your mental state affect the health of your gut? They are intricately linked and constantly influencing each other.
The key players in this are our gut bacteria that make up our microbiome. They impact our neurotransmitters that are produced in the gut, which in turn effects our moods and mental states.
However, our emotions, mental states, and nervous system responses are also impacting our gut bacteria and how our gut functions.
Tune into this episode to learn about the gut-brain-microbiome connection and how it is influencing your emotions, moods, mental state, and gut symptoms.
If you struggle with anxiety, depression, IBS, or troubling gut issues, then addressing the gut-brain-microbiome connection is essential.

This is a spontaneous episode created around a concept that has been coming up for me this last year as I’ve been doing therapy consistently. It's been a fresh reminder over the past days, so I felt compelled to create an episode so that it may support you on your own healing journey.

Understanding how the digestive process works is a foundational piece for supporting our gut health, mental health, and overall well-being!
In this episode, I walk through the process step-by-step, explaining HOW it all works, and then identifying what can go wrong in each step of the way.
If you are feeling stuck in digestive symptoms, coming back to these basics and understanding this blueprint can help you identify where you need to focus.
Even if you feel you know this information well, it can be very helpful to refresh yourself on this process so you can be sure you are on track to supporting your gut-brain in the best way for you!

We all know the saying “trust your gut,” but what does that actually mean?
Why is the gut such a large part of intuition? Where does intuition come from? Can we really trust it?
In this episode, we explore where where intuition is in our body, how our gut feelings are formed, when we may not be able to trust our gut feelings, and what you can do to get more in touch with your inner knowing.
