#213 | Lisa Hoyer on Faith, Chronic Illness & Emotional Healing
When health challenges change everything, where do you find the strength to keep going? In this episode of Talks with Gallagher, John Gallagher welcomes Lisa Hoyer for a candid conversation about chronic illness, faith, trauma, and whole-person wellness. Lisa shares her experience navigating a severe antibiotic reaction, mold-related illness, Lyme disease, and cancer—and how that journey inspired her to pursue education in herbalism, homeopathy, functional medicine health coaching, and the Root Cause Protocol. Together, John and Lisa discuss her perspective on the relationship between emotional well-being and physical health, the importance of supportive community, and why forgiveness can be a process rather than a single moment. Lisa also guides John through a short breathing and affirmation exercise. At the heart of the conversation is a message of encouragement: your struggles do not define your worth, and you do not have to face them alone. 00:00 Opening preview 01:08 Introducing Lisa Hoyer 02:07 Her personal health journey 04:01 From health challenges to starting a practice 06:58 Lisa’s training and credentials 09:04 Emotions, beliefs & wellness 12:05 Her approach to client health histories 14:09 Faith, perseverance & supportive relationships 19:09 Words, identity & personal beliefs 24:56 Trauma, emotional healing & feeling safe 31:08 Self-compassion and identity 36:39 Forgiveness and moving forward 42:08 Community and encouragement 44:08 Guided breathing and affirmation exercise 48:19 Stress, minerals & an audience question 54:57 Lisa’s practice and a client experience 59:32 Final encouragement Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/talks-with-gallagher--6106098/support .
