On this episode, Tatiana Mercier, a registered nutritional therapist, yoga teacher, and functional medicine practitioner, recently joined Yvonne Pierre on the show Let's Talk About Healing to discuss healing from burnout. Tatiana specializes in burnout after having experienced it herself in her early 30s. She had been on the wrong diet for her constitutional type for over 20 years prior to her burnout. The conversation also touched on peptide and stem cell therapies, which are used to reverse any acceleration of the aging process caused by inflammation in the body. Tatiana believes that a key component of healing from burnout is understanding one's constitutional type, in order to create a diet and lifestyle that works best for their individual needs.

Tatiana discussed how the lack of nutrients and minerals in her diet caused her to experience difficult childbirth. She inherited her mother's fear of childbirth since her mother had to have C-sections for all three of her children, and this fear led to her feeling extreme stress and anxiety, known as perceived stress. Her malnourishment caused her body to be under a lot of stress, and this is why it is so important to have a healthy diet, especially when pregnant or breastfeeding. The speaker emphasizes that not only is it important to have optimum nutrition, but it is also important to manage perceived stress in order to have a successful and healthy pregnancy.

Tatiana experienced severe burnout after the birth of her child due to a combination of stressors, including thinking she would die, being in a hospital that avoided C-sections at all costs, lack of sleep, and having to do everything alone due to a lack of support. She became flooded with adrenaline and cortisol, and her body was unable to produce enough milk to feed her baby. After speaking to a dietitian who told her that relaxing at home would help her produce milk, the speaker found herself unable to relax and exhausted due to the crying baby at night and lack of sleep. She went to a naturopathic doctor who diagnosed her with dysregulated stress response due to excessive stress and poor diet.

The conversation is between Tatiana and Yvonne discussing how to deal with burnout. The doctor explains that the first stage of burnout is a manic life, with too much stress both in and outside of the body, such as infections and dysbiosis. To combat this, the doctor prescribes vitamins and minerals, such as magnesium, B vitamins, omega three fatty acids, and most importantly, vitamin C. Vitamin C is essential for the adrenal glands to function optimally and to manufacture the hormones of stress. Excess cortisol due to stressors triggers the body to release glucose stores, giving the muscles the strength to run away from danger.

About Tatiana Mercier: Tatiana Mercier is a registered nutritional therapist, a yoga teacher, and a functional medicine practitioner. She’s based in Weybridge which is located in Southwest England, UK, and works remotely with clients from America and the UK. After experiencing nearly two decades of invalidating burnout, and desperately knocking at the doors of various GPs who dismissed her symptoms arguing that “burnout” didn’t exist, and who only offered her antidepressants as a solution, she finally found a naturopathic doctor who believed her and helped her recover her health naturally. Since she became a practitioner herself in 2011, she decided to specialize in burnout. Her message is that of hope for people who live with extreme fatigue and do not find the answers and support they really need from the conventional medical establishment.

Tatiana works remotely with clients in the US.
