💛 The Love Your Skin Program: healing eczema from the inside out

24/07/2025

Menopause isn’t JUST hormonal. And eczema isn’t JUST skin deep.⁣
⁣
If you’re flaring, flashing, itching, and you’re over it ⁣
⁣
Guess what. ⁣
It’s not just bad luck.⁣
There’s a reason WHY.⁣
⁣
As estrogen drops, your body loses key anti-inflammatory protection. Your skin gets drier. Your nervous system feels frayed. Your gut barrier weakens. And the immune system becomes more reactive.⁣
⁣
It’s not just menopause.⁣
It’s not just eczema.⁣
It’s the perfect storm of unaddressed inflammation.⁣
⁣
🔥 That’s what happened to Lisa.⁣
Her skin and symptoms felt unmanageable ⁣
… until she addressed her root causes, calmed her stress responses, and healed the Gut-Brain-Skin connection.⁣
⁣
Comment “LISA” below 👇🏼⁣
to get access to her full interview, where she explains how.⁣
⁣
Lisa’s relief wasn’t from “trying harder.”⁣
It was from finally using the right tools — in the right order — at the right time.⁣
⁣
This is what we do inside the Love Your Skin Program:⁣
💡 Map your unique inflammation patterns⁣
🧠 Rewire the brain-skin connection⁣
🧬 Support hormonal shifts without extreme detoxes or restriction⁣
🌿 And help your skin (and you) feel calm again⁣
⁣
Because healing your skin is healing your system.⁣
And yes, you can heal both.⁣

Lisa used to check the mirror 10 times a day.⁣
"Am I flaring? Am I peeling? What’s wrong now?"⁣
⁣
She was stuck in the eczema-anxiety loop.⁣
Always scanning. Always bracing.⁣
Always trying to control her skin.⁣
⁣
Until something shifted….⁣
⁣
Lisa realised: ⁣
“My skin’s trying to send me a message… figure out what that message is”⁣
⁣
During the healing process, Lisa accepted:⁣
“My face was going to be the way it was going to be.”⁣
“That’s when I truly started to heal.”⁣
⁣
Instead of fighting her skin?⁣
Lisa started listening to it.⁣
⁣
She did the breathwork.⁣
She did the deeper work.⁣
She stopped running from the message her body was sending.⁣
⁣
And everything started to change.⁣
⁣
✨ 4–5 months with no eczema on her body⁣
✨ A face that’s calm, with only occasional redness⁣
✨ A sense of peace that gets stronger every day⁣
⁣
Because healing isn’t about perfect skin.⁣
It’s about a new relationship with your body.⁣
⁣

How Lisa got to the root cause of her anxiety 🧠⁣
⁣
Lisa thought she was just “stressed.”⁣
Until she joined the LYS Program, Lisa realised it was the unconscious anxiety that was quietly driving the flares.⁣
⁣
📍 The pressure to be perfect⁣
📍 The internal voice saying “you should”⁣
📍 The fear of letting balls drop⁣
📍 The constant drive to “do more” and make everyone happy⁣
⁣
Stress is external (juggling work, life, and family).⁣
⁣
But anxiety? ⁣
That’s internal.⁣
⁣
It’s anxiety that overactivates your nervous system⁣
and flares your skin… even when life looks “under control.”⁣
⁣
Lisa’s breakthrough came when she started to notice her patterns…⁣
⁣
🧠 Noticing: the part of her that was always pushing.⁣
🧠 Asking: Where did this part of me come from?⁣
That’s when she started peeling back the deeper layers.⁣
⁣
That’s when Lisa connected…⁣
Her lifelong perfectionism. The pressure to please.⁣
All rooted in childhood stress from when her parents divorced.⁣
⁣
This is why healing eczema means healing the whole system.⁣
And why the real root cause often starts way before the flare.⁣
⁣
✨ THIS was Lisa’s turning point.⁣
When her eczema finally began to calm.⁣
⁣
✨ When you can name the part…⁣
You can stop letting it run the show.⁣
You start learning how to work with it, rather than against it.⁣
⁣
✨ THIS is how you do the Deep Work Healing⁣

When you don’t have to…⁣
… wake up scratching every night⁣
… Google eczema at 2 A.M.⁣
… cancel plans because you’re mid-flare⁣
… obsess over every bite of food or new cream⁣
⁣
That’s when it happens.⁣
Your nervous system exhales.⁣
Your body shifts out of survival.⁣
Your skin finally starts to heal.⁣
⁣
💡 A client had this realization on a recent call:⁣
⁣
“My whole life revolved around managing my skin.⁣
Now that I have support… I can breathe again. ⁣
And my skin’s changing because of it.”⁣
⁣
I get it.⁣
This is easier said than done.⁣
Eczema feeds the stress cycle.⁣
Flares → Stress → More flares → More stress.⁣
Your body gets stuck in a loop of inflammation and fear.⁣
⁣
⚠️ In this survival state, your body isn’t focused on healing.⁣
It’s prioritising staying alive, not skin.⁣
(You don’t need your hair, skin and nails to survive.)⁣
⁣
That’s why rashes erupt. ⁣
The body diverts resources away from your skin to survive.⁣
⁣
But when you have:⁣
A proven system⁣
A team of experts⁣
A community that gets it⁣
…everything starts to shift.⁣
⁣
Your mind can rest.⁣
Your body can receive support.⁣
Your eczema can finally start to heal.⁣

The root cause of Lisa's anxiety (that was driving her eczema)⁣
⁣
Lisa’s allergist told her it was just allergies.⁣
Avoid this. Take that. Try to manage it.⁣
⁣
But Lisa knew it was more than skin deep.⁣
⁣
Even after joining the LYS Program…⁣
Even after the symptom mapping, blood work, and stool testing…⁣
⁣
Lisa sensed there was still something deeper.⁣
⁣
Yes, we uncovered⁣
→ Nutrient deficiencies⁣
→ Gut overgrowths⁣
→ Hormone imbalances⁣
→ An overworked liver⁣
→ Anxiety⁣
⁣
Buttttt Lisa started noticing something else 💡Patterns.⁣
⁣
📍 The pressure to be perfect⁣
📍 The anxiety rooted in childhood stress⁣
📍 The constant drive to “do more” and make everyone happy⁣
⁣
These weren’t surface symptoms.⁣
They were nervous system patterns… survival strategies her body had held onto for decades.⁣
⁣
And that was the real root cause.⁣
⁣
Her turning point?⁣
⁣
Letting go.⁣
Letting the flare happen (without panic).⁣
Letting her skin be red (without shame).⁣
And finally listening to what her body was trying to say.⁣
⁣
✨ 4–5 months flare-free⁣
✨ Calmer skin. Calmer mind.⁣
✨ No longer stuck in the anxiety-eczema loop⁣
⁣
This is what happens when you stop fighting your skin…⁣
and start healing the system underneath.⁣

The root causes of Lisa’s eczema and allergies weren’t on her skin.⁣
⁣
Her allergist ran the tests.⁣
Avoid these. Take antihistamines. Try to manage it.⁣
⁣
But Lisa knew there was more.⁣
And she was right.⁣
⁣
When she joined the Love Your Skin Program, we went deeper:⁣
⁣
🧬 Full health history⁣
🧪 Blood + stool analysis⁣
🍽️ Diet + symptom mapping⁣
⁣
And we uncovered what was really fueling her flares:⁣
⁣
→ Nutrient deficiencies⁣
→ Gut overgrowths⁣
→ Hormone imbalances⁣
→ An overworked liver⁣
→ Anxiety, no one had linked to her skin⁣
⁣
But we didn’t stop there.⁣
⁣
❌ Because eczema isn’t caused by allergies ⁣
It’s driven by an overactive immune system, overloaded with stress and internal inflammation.⁣
⁣
So we kept peeling back the layers…⁣
⁣
🔍 Why the gut issues?⁣
🔍 Why the anxiety?⁣
🔍 Why the low nutrients?⁣
⁣
That’s when Lisa noticed…⁣
Her lifelong perfectionism. The pressure to please.⁣
All rooted in childhood stress from when her parents divorced.⁣
⁣
✨ That was her turning point.⁣
⁣
This is why healing skin means healing the whole system.⁣
And why the real root cause often starts way before the flare.⁣

Has your eczema gotten to the point where it’s taken over your life, too?⁣
⁣
Don’t worry, you’re not alone.⁣
As eczema warriors, we know eczema is more than just skin deep.⁣
The rashes snowball, and it affects so many other areas of life.⁣
⁣
As hard as the physical, itchy, red, burning skin is⁣
It’s the mental and emotional toll that's the hardest.⁣

"I didn’t need another protocol… I needed to feel safe."⁣
⁣
Breanne had seen so many doctors and Practitioners before.⁣
⁣
Each one handed her a new plan—⁣
✨ Here's your diet⁣
✨ Here’s your supplements⁣
✨ Try to “stop stressing”⁣
⁣
But no one saw her.⁣
No one said,⁣
“Your trauma matters. Your nervous system is part of this. You're not broken—you’re in survival.”⁣
⁣
Until she found the Love Your Skin Program.⁣
⁣
That moment?⁣
When someone finally looked at my skin, my history, and my emotional world and said…⁣
⁣
“Yes. It’s all connected.”⁣
That’s when everything changed.⁣
⁣
Because healing eczema isn’t just about eliminating gluten or adding zinc.⁣
It’s about creating a whole life that supports your body’s ability to heal.⁣
⁣
👉🏼 A life where suppressed emotions don’t have to come out through your skin.⁣
👉🏼 A life where you have tools in every area (nervous system, gut, trauma, emotions)⁣
👉🏼 A life where you’re not just managing symptoms… but building safety inside.⁣
⁣
When Breanne finally felt safe to take my hands off the wheel…⁣
to trust someone else to lead her,⁣
to stop trying to control every flare and fix everything alone,⁣
her body could finally relax.⁣
⁣
Breanne’s nervous system was finally able to shift from a sympathetic (fight-flight-survival) to a parasympathetic (rest, digest, healing state).⁣
⁣
THAT’s when the healing started. 🧡⁣
⁣
If you’re doing all the right things and your skin is still flaring,⁣
It’s not because you’re doing it wrong.⁣
It might be because your system doesn’t feel safe enough to let go.⁣
⁣
You don’t need more pressure. You need support.⁣

“Stress and anxiety was just my norm, it was just how I lived. ⁣
⁣
When people told me that ‘you should stop doing that, that's affecting your skin’⁣
I was more stressed because none of it worked”⁣
⁣
That’s what Breanne shared when she first joined us.⁣
⁣
She had tried all the classic advice: ⁣
- From doctors (topical and oral steroids, anti-histamines)⁣
- From Nutritionists and Naturopaths (“remove this food, take that supplement”)⁣
⁣
But nothing reached the underlying Nervous System Dysregulation that was driving Breanne’s eczema.⁣
⁣
What changed everything?⁣
⁣
✨ Rewiring her Brain-Skin Connection⁣
✨ Having Breathwork in her toolbox ⁣
✨ Learning how to feel safe in her body⁣
⁣
⁣
“ After moving myself from my MIND and into my BODY?⁣
The game changed. ⁣
I finally felt like I was living in my body.⁣
⁣
This shift happened when I was finally able to release ⁣
that level of constant stress and constant anxiety ⁣
that was always on the surface 🌅”⁣
⁣
This is what led Breanne to become a Breathwork facilitator.⁣
And now, she leads this work inside the Love Your Skin Program.⁣
⁣
Because healing your eczema isn’t just about what you eat.⁣
It’s about the state of your nervous system.⁣
⁣
It’s not JUST about doing breathwork or yoga or meditation.⁣
⁣
It’s about learning how to create resiliency ⁣
and building the consistency, support, and structure⁣
to rewire the gut-brain-skin connection over time.⁣
⁣
So you don’t get a flare-up every time life gets stressful 🙌🏻.⁣
⁣
In Love Your Skin Program, we don’t throw tools at the problem.⁣
We teach you how to build a solid foundation.⁣
so your body can finally stop surviving… and start healing.⁣

Does your skin get itchy and red when you’re stressed or overwhelmed?⁣
⁣
Does this sound like you…?⁣
⁣
… You’re busy from the moment you wake up to when your head hits the pillow⁣
… Your mind never stops racing—there are always a thousand tabs open⁣
… Your worst flares always seem to hit after major life stressors or transitions?⁣
⁣
If you’re nodding your head right now⁣ 👇🏼
Comment “YES” below.⁣
⁣
You’re not alone.⁣
⁣
In fact, this is true for 99% of our clients.⁣
(It was a huge part of my own eczema journey too.)⁣
⁣
So if stress is the straw that broke the camel’s back...⁣
What can you actually do about it?⁣

Most people try to:⁣
❌ Avoid stress completely⁣
❌ “Think positive” and hope for the best⁣

But here’s the truth:⁣

💥 The problem isn’t stress.⁣
💥 The problem is how your mind and body RESPOND to stress.⁣

When your nervous system is dysregulated,⁣
even small day-to-day stressors are perceived as a life-threatening event.⁣
⁣
That chronic overdrive? It’s what's fueling your eczema flare ups.⁣
⁣
The real problem?⁣
⁣
Your mind + body has just lost resiliency⁣
After being in overdrive for so long⁣
your system no longer has the resources to bounce back.⁣
⁣
After looking at these diagrams, does it make sense that if you want term relief from your eczema you have to rewire the Brain-Skin Connection?⁣
⁣
Otherwise, you’ll keep ending up back at square one—no matter what you eat, apply, or avoid.⁣
⁣

A bit about me..

My journey into the world of Nutrition and Natural Medicine stemmed from a lifetime of suffering with eczema and gut issues. I used every steroid cream and natural cream under the sun with no long-term improvement. Then a trip overseas triggered the most horrendous gut issues, triggered more food intolerances and my eczema flared to the worse it’s been.

After seeing numerous doctors and dermatologists with no resolution, I felt frustrated and alone. I started investigating natural remedies and learnt first hand the connection between food, gut health and eczema.

This plus my passion for food and helping people led me to studying a Bachelor of Health Science in Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine. During this time I started Goodness on the Go ready made meals and started working with gyms.

Through personal and clinical experience I developed the Love Your Guts, Love Your Skin. This program helps people with digestive symptoms and eczema find relief so they can feel comfortable and confident in their skin.
