Hi! I’m Sarah!

Does chronic fatigue suck the life out of you? Is gut discomfort making it hard to focus on friends and family? Do you suffer from bad skin despite taking good care of it? These symptoms could point to an underlying autoimmune disorder. Our guest on this week’s show, Cressida Pollack, shares her journey living with crohn's disease and how she discovered relief for herself with essential oils. Join us to find out how you can use essential oils on your journey towards healing and relief.
If you’ve ever had a cold or fever then you’ve probably experienced that pure exhaustion that no amount of rest can fix. For anyone living with Crohn's disease that exhaustion can become an everyday struggle and reality. This week we dive into another autoimmune disorder and explore the healing that can come from essential oils.
In her soothing Australian accent, Cressida Pollack opens up about her journey with Crohns and how essential oils changed her life.
In her early twenties, Cressida got the worst news. Her doctor diagnosed her with Crohns, a potentially life threatening autoimmune disease which attacks the gut. He basically told her there was nothing she could do AND it would only get worse with age.
I don’t know about you but I would be tempted to give up right then and there. Luckily for us, Cressida instead turned that fear into action. She spent the next few years researching and investing in her health.
Incorporating essential oils into her treatment was a breakthrough moment and tremendously helped Cressida who shares how she is now 100% symptom free. I am so excited to help bring her story to you.
This episode is not just for people who struggle with autoimmune diseases but for anyone who’s ready to reclaim their health and happiness using essential oils and other holistic tools.
