About this listen

Dr. Ashley Beckman — Doctor of Chinese Medicine, acupuncturist, and functional wellness expert — joins us to talk about the hidden sources of burnout, chronic fatigue, hormone imbalance, and unexplained symptoms that so many women face today.

Dr. Ashley shares her personal healing journey, beginning with severe chemical sensitivity, joint pain, and autoimmune-like symptoms that went undiagnosed by conventional medicine. Her search for answers led her through homeopathy, Chinese medicine, and ultimately the discovery of mold toxicity and Lyme disease as major root causes behind her health collapse.

We explore:

  • The truth about mold exposure
    How mold silently impacts the brain, skin, hormones, mood, immune system, and even childhood conditions like eczema, OCD, and tics.
  • The misunderstood link between mold, Lyme, Epstein-Barr, autoimmune symptoms, and chronic burnout
    And why mold often must be addressed first before heavy detox protocols.
  • The nervous system piece
    How mold disrupts safety signals, creates internal chaos, and why regulating the nervous system is foundational for recovery.
  • Real self-care vs. “performance” self-care
    And how many women unintentionally burn themselves out trying to heal.
