What started as a simple infection turned into the biggest heartbreak of my life. In this deeply personal episode, I share my mum’s story, how a common UTI treatment spiralled into years of antibiotic damage, health decline, and heartbreak.

But this isn’t a story about despair, it’s about purpose behind thepain. After my mums story went viral on Instagram and reached over 1 million views, thousands of families reached out with similar experiences, and it changed everything I thought I knew about health, immunity, and healing.

I’ll walk you through what I’ve learned, why some infections keep coming back, how antibiotics can impact your gut, hormones, and mood, and the gentle, natural ways to rebuild your body’s resilience and restore true health.

If you’ve ever felt helpless watching someone you love suffer… this episode is for you. Because even in the hardest moments, there’s always hope and healing is closer than you think.
