In this episode, host Kenzie Bath sits down with board-certified health coach Meg Crockett — founder of Meg Crockett Health — to unpack why the order of your healing protocol matters just as much as the protocol itself. Meg's journey began not with a Lyme diagnosis, but with an infection following an egg retrieval procedure that landed her in the hospital multiple times, led to sepsis, and ultimately became the catalyst for a complete career and lifestyle transformation. What followed was six years of investigating the root causes hiding beneath the surface — mold toxicity, parasites, co-infections, and the nervous system's role in all of it. Her framework is simple but powerful: clear the terrain first, then address the infection. In this episode, you'll learn: Why mold toxicity is often the first layer to address — and how to test your home accurately using the ERMI test The truth about parasites: why they're more common than you think, why standard gut tests miss them, and how to cleanse safely How Lyme co-infections like Babesia and Bartonella respond to herbal protocols — and why Meg has never used antibiotics for Lyme The connection between endometriosis, cysts, and Lyme that rarely gets discussed Why emotional well-being and nervous system regulation are non-negotiable parts of physical healing What Meg's 4-month private coaching program looks like and who it's designed for Resources & Mentions: Vibrant Wellness Tickborne 2.0 Panel ERMI Home Mold Test / Micrometrics Lab (NJ) Great Plains Mycotoxin Test CellCore Biosciences parasite protocol IS-4 herbal tincture (Bartonella) GI-MAP & Vibrant Gut Zoomer Nicole Sachs — The Cure for Chronic Pain journaling method Institute for Integ…","meta_description":"What if treating Lyme directly isn't actually the first step toward healing?
