Many of us with skin conditions don't know exactly what is going on. We often don't know our root causes, so we have trouble finding out why our skin is flaring up in various ways. I hope today's guest will help you.    My guest today is Ashley James, an entrepreneur, coach and podcaster. When Ashley was 22, she lost her Mom to cancer.  This loss was so great it caused Ashley to reassess her life. She became determined to learn how to help others lead healthier happier lives. She is a massage therapist, Reiki Master, a master practitioner and trainer in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Time Line Therapy, Hypnosis, and coaching. When Ashley isn’t interviewing doctors and holistic health experts for her podcast or coaching her wonderful clients to achieve their life and health goals, she is spending time with her husband and son, enjoying the Pacific Northwest, exploring the Greater Seattle Area and cultivating her skills in the kitchen by cooking whole food, organic meals for her family. Join us as we discuss the fascinating story behind Ashley's skin rash, and the steps she took to heal. Are you working to find your skin rash root cause? Let me know in the comments!

How to manage stress Quotes “I'm used to candida being in the vagina, or thrush in the mouth, or some kind of something in the gut. Those are my experiences with it. I had never had a candida infection or a yeast infection on my skin.” [4:59] “I have to be honest. The skin rash kept me honest and it helped me stay on track to really manage healthy blood sugar, and stress and sleep. I had to do all of that.” [9:50] "We get so habituated to stress mode that it becomes our new normal. I challenge you, all listeners, to create a new normal, become habituated to the healing mode.
