022: Healing the Root Cause of Why We Get Sick with Elissa Goodman

Essential Ingredients Podcast

“One of the biggest things about being unhealthy is we are so hard on ourselves. We don't love ourselves.” -Elissa Goodman

There's a lot of pressure to be healthy.

We want to feel better, and we know what makes us feel better: not eating a bunch of junk food that makes us feel like crap. But sometimes, we just don't have it in us to eat right, hydrate, or exercise enough. And then we beat ourselves up for not being able to do it—for feeling bad about our bodies and ourselves. But it’s not too late for us to treat our body with more kindness and love.

In this episode, Justine interviews Elissa Goodman, the creator of S.O.U.P. Cleanse. Her program is a guide to help others detoxify and heal themselves in a natural way. Elissa’s health journey began in her early 30’s when she learned that she has cancer, Celiac Disease, and Hashimoto’s Disease. Her doctors suggest that she start chemotherapy and a host of healing strategies right away, but with her weak immune system, she knew her body would give out. But Elissa is not one to give up. She searched for a way to heal naturally and also strengthen her body along the way. Today, Elissa is cancer-free and has built a business from her passion for helping others heal holistically.

Listen in as Justine and Elissa talk about how pathogens and toxins affect our health, the importance of hydration, how to get started with detox, how our own health journey can impact our loved ones, especially our kids, and how we can find what recipe is best for us.
