In this powerful episode of Holistic Health with Melissa, we sit down with Jamie Javed, a former critical care nurse turned holistic and metabolic health coach. Jamie shares her transformative journey from the trauma-filled halls of the ER to her mission of helping women reconnect with their bodies, reclaim their energy, and master their metabolism. Through raw storytelling, Jamie opens up about the pivotal moments that sparked her passion for holistic health, including a life-altering experience with a fallen firefighter that forever shaped her purpose.

We dive deep into the mind-body connection, understanding how beliefs impact physical health, and why many women feel disconnected from their bodies—constantly reaching for quick fixes while believing they are broken. Jamie offers practical, empowering strategies to shift these limiting beliefs, find your "why," and begin a journey of lasting transformation. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your health journey or disconnected from your body, this episode is your guide back to wholeness.

In this powerful episode, coach and speaker Anthony Dahya opens up about his personal journey from deep emotional pain to unshakable confidence. Anthony shares how his traumatic childhood experiences shaped him—and how he ultimately learned to sit with discomfort, reconnect with himself, and rewrite his story. We dive into the first crucial step in healing: awareness, and explore the role of somatic work in transforming trauma into purpose.

Anthony’s raw honesty and wisdom will inspire anyone feeling stuck in survival mode to take the next brave step toward healing. Plus, I share details about the upcoming 3-Day Mind-Body-Spirit Healing Summit, where we’ll be going deeper into how these tools—like somatic work—can reconnect you to your body, your truth, and your power.

This week, we’re diving deep into one of the most powerful (yet underrated) wellness tools for 2025: glutathione, aka “Vitamin G.” Joining me is world-renowned Naturopathic Physician, researcher, and formulator Dr. Gina Nick — a trailblazer in integrative medicine and expert in everything from autoimmune support to addiction recovery.

Dr. Gina shares the science behind glutathione’s role in immune health, detoxification, anti-aging, inflammation, and even skin radiance — and why we’re seeing it rise to the top as a must-have nutrient for vibrant health in the year ahead. We also explore how stress, toxins, and lifestyle deplete your body’s natural supply and what you can do to boost your glutathione levels naturally and effectively.

Whether you’re struggling with chronic illness, focused on longevity, or just want to uplevel your energy and resilience in 2025, this episode is for you.

In this solo episode, I’m breaking down the key differences between conventional medicine and functional medicine—how they approach health, why root-cause healing matters, and what I’ve learned on my own journey to keep myself happy and healthy.

I'll dive into the 7 daily habits I live by to keep my body and mind thriving:
✨ Prayer & Meditation
✨ Moving My Body
✨ Prioritizing Protein & Fiber
✨ Hydration
✨ Quality Sleep
✨ Sunlight Exposure
✨ Deep Connection with Others

These habits have been game-changers in my healing journey, and I’m sharing how you can implement them in your life too! Remember, it's ONE habit at a time, don't try to implement everything at once. That's a recipe for failure. Just try one and once you master that, add another, and another, and another. You get the point.

Hit play to learn how to take control of your health from a whole-body perspective. 💫
