Gut Health: What is the Real Cause of Your Bloat? with Colleen Kurtz

Are you a busy woman who feels like you are constantly running on empty, battling exhaustion and an unpredictable stomach? In this episode, I sit down with Colleen Kurtz to explore the deep connection between your daily stress and your digestion. We dive into how chronic overwhelm silently affects your body, and how taking simple, grounded steps to calm your nervous system can help you heal, restore your energy, and finally find some much-needed relief. Colleen Kurtz is the owner of Mindfully Nourished Wellness where she helps women restore their gut health so they can have more energy, less digestive issues, and feel more comfortable in life.

In this episode: Colleen shares how her own frustrating health struggles led her to discover the amazing benefits of fixing her gut health. She explains that for busy business owners, our stomachs and brains talk to each other constantly, so all that daily stress really upsets our digestive system. She talks about how poor gut health can actually cause sneaky problems like skin breakouts, brain fog, and migraines. Colleen shares that healing your gut health can even help balance your hormones and give you your precious energy back. She explains why taking a simple lab test at home gives you way better answers than just guessing what foods to cut out of your busy life. She talks about a 90-minute session she offers to help you figure out your personal gut health puzzle without needing lots of pills.
