Listen "85. Journey to Wellness with Jena Ochsner"
Episode Synopsis
I’m so excited to have Jena Ochsner on the show today! Jena shares her backstory on growing up, graduating with two degrees (one being in nursing), and then transitioning to working on the family farm with her husband. She’s also a mom, direct-to-consumer beef business owner, and podcaster.
Jena shares her personal journey, as well as her son’s, to better health while working with a functional medicine doctor. Her journey includes a detox to heal her gut, getting rid of anything with food dye in it, swapping foods for healthier options, and what low to non-toxic household items she uses. She’ll share tips she used to change to their more healthy lifestyle as well as some ideas of where to start your own health discovery. The biggest message coming out of today’s episode: be your own advocate to find what works for you and your family.
