Episode notes

In this episode, I sit down with Laylalu Celis—author, content creator, certified twerk instructor, and animal-based health coach—to explore her extraordinary journey of healing from juvenile arthritis and chronic pain through a strict carnivore lifestyle, body awareness, and radical self-expression.

Diagnosed with arthritis at age two and unable to walk by age nine, Laylalu tried everything before discovering the power of meat, movement, and mindset. What followed was a full-body transformation fueled by red meat and self-education.

Here’s what we cover in the episode:

• Laylalu’s childhood battle with crippling arthritis—and the turning point that led her to carnivore

• Why raw veganism and “healthy” eating weren’t enough—and how inflammation finally disappeared on red meat and eggs

• The role of cannabis in aleviating her pain

• How twerking became therapeutic, and why sensual movement helped her rebuild strength and body connection

• Practical tips for identifying hidden food sensitivities and building a healing diet that works

• What “Dirty Carnivora” really means—and why she proudly embraces controversy in the wellness world

If you’ve ever struggled with chronic pain or autoimmune symptoms, Laylalu’s story offers an unfiltered, empowering path to reclaiming your body and vitality.
