Episode Synopsis

What happens when your body forces you to slow down before your mind is ready? In this raw and unfiltered episode of Rebel CEO Podcast, Breeanna Kay shares the behind-the-scenes of navigating an autoimmune diagnosis while running a six-figure business. Instead of accepting the limitations handed to her, Bree pulled back the curtain on her health journey, revealing what really worked, what didn’t, and why trusting your intuition might be the most powerful form of medicine. From questioning traditional healthcare to experimenting with functional medicine, holistic practices, and lifestyle shifts, Bree’s story is proof that you don’t have to choose between thriving in business and thriving in your body. You’ll hear how she's in the process of rebuilding her health by advocating for herself, digging deeper when doctors dismissed her, and making hard changes like eliminating gluten, dairy, and sugar (plus more!), while still growing her business on her own terms. If you’ve ever felt ignored by the medical system, stuck in the cycle of burnout, or scared that your health is holding you back from chasing your big goals, this episode will show you another way forward.   Key Takeaways: Functional medicine digs deeper into root causes that traditional tests can miss. Diet + lifestyle changes matter: Eliminating gluten, dairy, soy and processed sugar was a game-changer in managing autoimmune symptoms. Advocate for yourself: Your intuition and your own research can help you to ask for tests when doctors dismiss you. Holistic practices help regulate the body: from red light therapy to sauna sessions. AI vs. functional testing: Why personalized support often beats cookie-cutter results. Notable Quotes: "My body wasn't functioning the way that it was supposed to, I knew that." "Please advocate for yourself and do your own research." "The cool thing about the minerals test is that there are different ratios that show how well your organ systems are functioning."
