First Responders: Taking Control of Your Mental Health Through Functional Medicine w/ Bryanna Austin, FDNP, BCHHP

Depending on how long you've been around FDN, you might remember when today's guest and Detective Ev were going live every week! Her name is Bryanna Austin (formerly Bryanna Lindly), and she has the EXACT same energy as Ev!

 

Although these two extroverts always have fun together, today's topic is a bit more serious (but much needed) conversation around the mental health of first responders. Bry has experience as a first responder herself, and knows all too well that this community of people has not had their mental health supported in any meaningful way for a long, long time.

 

This type of episode (depending on who is listening) could make you chuckle, cry, or feel anything in between, too. Most importantly, we hope it leaves you inspired and "fired up" to go out and help make a change for these brave men and women.

 

About Bryanna ("Bry"):

 

Bry Austin is a mama to two boys and two fur babies. Her husband and her reside in the Bay area, CA with their little family, and they love anything that brings them outdoors. She firmly believes that being in nature every single day will heal all things and that the body is meant to heal naturally. Bry is extremely passionate about holistic health, thinking outside the box, always challenging the “norm” and helping people break down their own barriers through the functional and holistic lifestyle to unlock the magic that lies within them.

 

Bry has been an FDNP since 2020 and has had the honor of working in a variety of different “niches” with some really amazing clients. She's gotten to work with people who have been exposed to toxic mold, high-level corporate folks, and all kinds of athletes, to name a few. 

 

Bry's hope is to meet everyone that her story and message resonates with and to inspire folks to dive deep into how the holistic and functional lifestyle can potentially help change their lives in the best of ways.
