If you’ve ever wondered how long it actually takes to reduce bloating, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, I’m breaking down real symptom-tracking data from women who completed my 6-month gut health coaching program in 2025. These aren’t guesses or before-and-after hype. This is monthly, measurable data showing how symptoms changed over time.

We’re talking:

• How quickly bloating, gas, constipation, and abdominal pain typically improve
• What happens in the first 4–6 weeks vs. 3–6 months
• Why many women see faster results once they stop focusing only on food elimination
• Improvements in energy, brain fog, skin, mood, and immune health
• The common patterns I see across clients, and what that means for your gut

If you’ve tried cutting gluten, dairy, FODMAPs, or “doing everything right” and still feel stuck, this episode will help you understand why, and what actually creates lasting change.

✨ Plus: I’m sharing details about my brand-new 6-week group gut health program launching this February, designed to help you experience the early wins many of my clients see in the first month.

If you’re going into 2026 still dealing with daily bloating, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing the habits, trends, and “gut health rules” we’re officially leaving behind in 2025, because doing more hasn’t led to less bloating.

We’ll talk about why things like extreme diets, intermittent fasting, and even scrolling on your phone until midnight can quietly sabotage digestion… even when they’re marketed as healthy or helpful.

You’ll learn:

• Why restriction often leads to more bloating, not less
• How fasting and under-eating can slow digestion and increase distention
• The overlooked connection between sleep, stress, and gut motility
• Why waiting for the “perfect time” keeps you stuck
• What to focus on instead if you want a calmer, more predictable gut in 2026

This episode is especially for women who feel like they’ve tried everything (diets, supplements, food rules...) and are ready for a more realistic, supportive approach to gut health.

If you feel like your bloating is totally random (fine one day, six-months-pregnant the next), you’re not alone… and it’s not actually random at all.

✨ The 5 Bloat Personalities I see over and over in my clients
✨ How habits, stress, meal timing, and “healthy eating” patterns impact digestion
