Today, my guest is Dr. Jill Carnahan, who's a board-certified integrative holistic medicine specialist known as your functional medicine expert and often referred to as the Sherlock Holmes of medicine for solving the case of the most well-known medical mysteries.
Utilizing state-of-the-art lab testing and biochemical analyses, she helps each patient identify the root cause of their illness by identifying nutritional or metabolic imbalances that may be contributing to their symptoms.
Dr. Jill uses nutritional protocols and supplements, lifestyle changes, and medication to increase patient level of function and always seeks the gentlest and least invasive ways to restore health and optimize healing.
She has also sustained a five-plus-year waiting list as the medical director of Flatiron Functional Medicine, a widely sought-after practice.
As a survivor of breast cancer, Crohn's disease, and toxic mold illness, Dr. Jill brings a unique perspective to treating a variety of complex and chronic illnesses and has traveled the world sharing her knowledge of hope, health, and healing live on stage, as well as through newsletters, articles, books, podcasts, and social media.
Her memoir, Unexpected, which I have right here, is out now, which is the highlight of our conversation today.
So it's a cross section between a personal memoir about trauma, healing and recovery and a self-help guide designed to give practical advice for those seeking solutions to long term chronic illnesses.
It explores the role faith and spirituality can play in one's healing journey coming from a medical doctor who has diagnosed and treated countless patients suffering from life altering disease and who has also suffered from great loss.
And I'll tell you what, you had me at science and faith because early in your book, you talked about rock climbing and you said something, I might not get this right, but you said something like science and faith combined with experience form wisdom.
