Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today, I’m exploring a truth that’s changed everything for me and my clients: we are not broken machines; we are adaptive, conscious beings in dynamic systems of repair.After years of sitting with people navigating complex chronic illness, I’ve realized that our biology is not just chemical, it’s also energetic and informational. Our nervous systems are constantly scanning for safety, and when symptoms arise, they often become the story our brains use to make sense of chaos: “It’s my mold,” “It’s my MTHFR gene,” “It’s my hormones.” These narratives can help us, but they can also trap us.The healing work lies in the yes, and… validating the diagnosis, while remembering we have levers of influence: breath, movement, light, connection, thought, and time in nature. Pattern interrupts, tiny shifts in our inner dialogue and sensory experience, can retrain our physiology, lower inflammation, and awaken resilience. Healing, ultimately, is the art of creating new internal conditions where health can return naturally.This episode is a reminder that you are not a malfunctioning machine, you are a masterpiece in process. Episode Highlights[00:00] – The nervous system as storyteller: how our brains create meaning from illness[01:24] – “I am broken because…”: how health narratives form and when they hold us back[02:47] – Why healing must include biology, energy, and information—not just chemistry[04:15] – The power of breath, cold, heat, light, and thought to change physiology[05:11] – Nature therapy: the most accessible medicine on Earth (and it’s free)[06:40] – How fear-based stories become cages and the ego resists the real work[07:32] – Limbic system retraining: the ROI of rewiring your stress response[08:55] – The bridge of true healing: biology meets consciousness[09:45] – Healing isn’t fixing; it’s changing the conditions for adaptation[10:01] – A closing love letter to your body and its innate intelligenceLinks & ResourcesThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/ Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN Silver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN LightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybroken CatchBio: https://catchbio.com — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN  CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world)  Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/)  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today, I’m joined by the luminous Dr. Shivani Gupta, founder of Fusionary Formulas and author of The Inflammation Code. Shivani’s story begins with a home full of mold, hair loss, and a reminder that even the healthiest among us can get blindsided by hidden toxins. What followed was a journey of deep functional medicine testing, emotional regulation, and fierce self-advocacy—proof that healing is never linear.We talk about the real root of “inflamma-aging,” why brain fog and fatigue are not normal, and how inflammation is at the center of most chronic disease. Shivani breaks down the six Ayurvedic pillars of anti-inflammatory living, the importance of circadian alignment (especially the 10–2 window), and why tea time is more than self-care—it’s medicine.From tongue scraping and turmeric to sleep hygiene and self-awareness, this episode is full of accessible practices that bring ancient rituals into modern life. Whether you’re battling burnout, navigating hormonal chaos, or simply ready to feel more alive, Shivani’s wisdom will help you rewrite your own inflammation code. Episode Highlights[00:00] – Living with mold: the surprise diagnosis that changed everything[03:30] – Mold dogs, remediation, and the truth about “healthy homes”[06:40] – Why no supplement can fix a toxic environment[09:10] – Genetic resilience, functional testing, and understanding bio-individuality[13:05] – Hair loss as a metabolic signal and the timeline of toxic exposure[17:00] – Fear, mindset, and emotional regulation during mold recovery[18:52] – The Inflammation Code: aging, Ayurveda, and winning at inflammation[22:45] – Cycles, seasons, and building your Ayurvedic circadian rhythm[26:19] – Mental inflammation: the hidden driver of burnout and disease[30:40] – Building an anti-inflammatory lifestyle from the ground up[36:57] – Why doctors stay in their lanes—and why you must self-advocate[39:22] – Pitta, Kapha, and using fire time for healing and repair[45:24] – Ayurvedic sleep rituals and the power of forgiveness in wellness[47:21] – Tea time is me time: micro-moments of self-care that change your biology[53:37] – The 12 daily rituals for detox, digestion, and emotional balance[55:15] – Tongue scraping, turmeric, and the simple tools that actually work[58:56] – How to cycle supplements, build awareness, and measure results[1:01:26] – The spreadsheet of supplements: data meets intuition[1:03:02] – Big love, big lessons, and the path to sustainable healingConnect With Dr. ShivaniDr. Shivani Gupta: https://drshivani.comThe Inflammation Code (Preorder): https://theinflammationcode.comGet Your UpgradeVisionary Formulas: https://fusionaryformulas.com/?sca_ref=9671297.FAK6ESUdt3R9--- Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENThe Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybrokenCatchBio: https://www.catchbio.com/beautifullybroken — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN   CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world)  Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/)  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. Today, I’m joined by Martha Carlin, a woman who turned heartbreak into groundbreaking innovation. When her husband John was diagnosed with Parkinson’s, Martha refused to accept the standard “there’s nothing you can do.” Instead, she built a team of microbiologists, chemists, and researchers and founded The BioCollective, one of the first large-scale stool banks for Parkinson’s research.In this conversation, Martha shares what she discovered about the gut-brain connection, from the role of calcium and endotoxins to the emotional trauma that so often precedes disease. We talk about the origins of BiotiQuest, the company born from her desire to create living microbial systems that restore balance to the gut. Her formulations—like Sugar Shift, Perfect Peace, and the Total Gut Reset—don’t just add bacteria; they build microbial teams that communicate, heal, and support human resilience.Martha also opens up about losing her husband in 2024 and what she’s learned about the lasting impact of environmental toxins, cleaning products, and emotional repression on our biology. It’s a conversation that redefines what healing means—and reminds us that science, love, and purpose can coexist beautifully. Episode Highlights[00:00] – How Martha earned the title “Poop Queen” and why studying fecal samples changed everything[02:33] – The Parkinson’s journey that started it all: from diagnosis to data-driven discovery[04:59] – Building a poop bank: designing the patented BioCollector and pioneering stool-based research[06:54] – What Parkinson’s stool looks like—and what it reveals about the disease[10:55] – Environmental toxins, pesticides, and mercury exposure: mapping the chemical burden[13:20] – The emotional triggers behind Parkinson’s and why grief, fear, and loss matter[18:34] – Giant viruses, latent infections, and hidden pathogens in the microbiome[22:04] – The role of endotoxin in neurodegeneration and the link to chronic inflammation[32:18] – How diet, sugar, and soy influence symptoms—and the microbiome shifts that heal[34:43] – Creating Sugar Shift: a probiotic that turns sugar into healing fuel[37:05] – Pivoting during COVID: launching BiotiQuest and building living microbial systems[41:24] – The dangers of cleaning products and surfactants that damage cellular membranes[47:00] – Emotional release, spiritual connection, and the Healing ALS framework[51:49] – How Perfect Peace and Sugar Shift help calm the body and restore the gut ecosystem[56:35] – The Total Gut Reset: Martha’s full protocol for restoring gut resilience[58:36] – Honoring John’s legacy and the lessons learned through love, science, and loss Links & ResourcesBiotiQuest: https://biotiquest.com/Follow BiotiQuest on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/biotiquest/The Biological Blueprint Program: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/Beam Minerals: http://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken— Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: bit.ly/3JnxyDD— 30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794— Code: beautifullybrokenCatchBio: https://catchbio.com — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKEN CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world)  Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/)  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. In this reflective episode, I explore the concept of bio-individuality—how each of us carries a unique blueprint of DNA that unfolds into a living, breathing expression of life. I share personal stories of illness, healing, and loss that illuminate the incredible polarity of the human experience: how some of us are biologically resilient, while others are profoundly sensitive to the same environmental triggers.We’ll look at the scientific and spiritual sides of this truth—from how genetic mutations shaped survival during the Black Death and malaria epidemics, to the modern emotional weight of watching friends fall ill far too young. I unpack what it means to live with awareness of your blueprint without fear of it—to recognize that while nature may be impartial, the choices we make each day can color our genetic expression.This episode is both a meditation on grief and a celebration of life’s exquisite design. It’s an invitation to move through the world with kindness, curiosity, and reverence for your own human blueprint. Episode Highlights [00:00] – Opening reflection: our DNA as a living blueprint, shaped but not ruled by environment[01:12] – Defining bio-individuality and why some people seem “immune” to illness[03:35] – Honoring grief: remembering friends lost to illness and the fragility of life[05:50] – Personal reflection on cancer, Lyme, and surviving 100% of hard days[08:12] – The science of resilience: HIV resistance, the CR5 mutation, and evolutionary advantage[09:50] – The double edge of genetics: how the sickle cell trait both protects and harms[10:36] – Why our genetic diversity ensures the survival of humanity[12:48] – The power of choice, compassion, and connection in shaping our gene expression[13:44] – Closing reminder: the same individuality that causes suffering also enables miracles Links & Resources Biological Blueprint Program (Freddie’s custom coaching): https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintBeam Minerals: https://beamminerals.com/beautifullybroken — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENSilver Biotics: https://bit.ly/3JnxyDD — Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: https://lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794 — Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world)  Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/)  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
