Welcome to Episode 102 of the Emotional Eats Podcast!

In this episode of the Emotional Eats Podcast, I’m joined by my dear friend and fellow holistic health practitioner, Jacquelyn Lovett, to talk about something more women need to be aware of—Graves’ disease and thyroid health. In previous podcast episodes, we have talked about thyroid health and Hashimoto’s disease, but not Graves’ disease.

I thought it was a perfect time to highlight Graves’ and Jacquelyn.

Jacquelyn shares her powerful story of being diagnosed with this autoimmune condition and how she avoided surgery and a lifelong prescription regimen by choosing a holistic healing path instead.

We want to share that path with you in case you are struggling.

We really get into the symptoms of Graves’ disease, the importance of full thyroid panels (not just TSH), and why so many women are misdiagnosed or dismissed. Jacquelyn opens up about the emotional side of her health journey, including how trauma, stress, and inflammation contributed to her illness. She also shares the tools and lifestyle changes that helped her heal, including a whole foods approach, toxin reduction, EFT tapping, breathwork, and dance.

This episode is for any woman in midlife who feels like something’s “off” but hasn’t gotten clear answers. We explore the critical connection between stress and autoimmune illness, the role of faith and community in healing, and why now is the time to start advocating for your body.

Episode Highlights:

  • The often-missed symptoms of Graves’ disease and how Jacquelyn knew something was wrong

  • Why a full thyroid panel is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment

  • How medical gaslighting almost led Jacquelyn down a conventional path that didn’t align with her values

  • How inflammation, trauma, and stress play a role in autoimmune conditions

  • What to eat to support thyroid and hormone health (including plant-based tips for every budget)

  • Why reducing toxins in your home and body matters and how to start simply

  • The power of movement and Zumba as a form of emotional and physical healing

  • How EFT tapping and breathwork can shift your energy and calm your nervous system

  • Why women struggle to prioritize themselves and how to start showing up for your own health

What They Say

Discover What My Clients Are Saying

“You have a unique and special way.”

The most significant thing that changed in my work with you was that my all consuming, soul-killing obsession with food was relieved through gentle healing and integration. I knew in my heart that you really cared about me and had my best interests at heart which helped me to re-connect with my own ability to love and support myself. When that part felt back in balance I think the food piece also re-balanced itself. Another incredible gift you offer is a super well resourced tool box! There was also plenty of deep diving into core wounding and reviewing old stories, all of which you skillfully guided me though and helped me to integrate in order to heal.

Thank you so much for everything.

E. K.

“It seems so simple now!”

Kim taught me to listen to my body. I now can slow down and find out what I really need…which is not always food. I also learned it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. I struggled with dieting and then overeating. I have found a happy place where I can just be. She also taught me so much about food, reading labels and how good real food can be. Thank you.

“I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me.”


My reason for hiring Kim is different as I already knew how to eat healthy and was already in great shape. I wanted to learn more about digestion and overall gut health which is super important for all aspects of life. She is amazing! Very easy to talk too and she made me feel very comfortable and I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me. She is very nice and definitely very knowledgeable! She was able to help me in every way I needed and then some! Anyone who needs any form of help that she offers because she is top notch and well worth the money and time!Could not be happier with the decision I made to hire her as my coach!

K. C.

“Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives.”

I feel an enthusiasm for embracing routines and habits that encompass not only my body, but spirit and mind. Kim is a beautiful, genuine person who is intuitive and kind.
Her support and positive perspective always turn around my attitude and help me see the favorable aspect to decisions I’ve made in a non-judgemental way.
Access to this type of reassurance is perpetual and brings peace of mind. Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives. Kim has been instrumental in bringing me home to my truest self.
