About this episode
In this episode, one of Hollywood's leading wellness experts + founder of The Pure Joy App, Kelsey Patel, opens up about the year that brought her to her knees—mysterious illness, anxiety, insomnia, psychiatric medication, and the terrifying fear that she was losing her mind.
What she ultimately uncovered at the root of it all changed everything. Ahead, Kelsey speaks candidly about mold illness symptoms, the stigma around psychiatric medication, and navigating holistic healing alongside pharmaceuticals.
Her darkest season ultimately became a profound spiritual awakening + radical return to faith. Together, Krista + Kelsey explore community as medicine, mother wounds, chronic illness, burnout, and the deeper spiritual reckoning beneath anxiety + autoimmune symptoms.

Neuroinflammation, vertigo, insomnia, and panic attacks explained
