Beyond Quick Fixes: Root-Cause Healing & Self-Advocacy with Abby Tweeten (Episode 65)
About this episode
What happens when the system you’ve worked in for years no longer feels aligned with true healing?
In this episode of Thrive with Carrie, I sit down with my dear friend, Abby Tweeten—a registered nurse turned holistic health advocate—who shares her powerful journey from burnout and chronic illness to finding freedom through root-cause healing.
Abby opens up about:
👉 The decade-long health struggle that conventional medicine couldn’t solve
👉 How one simple (but overlooked) change transformed her life
👉 Why asking questions and seeking second opinions is essential for your health
👉 Practical ways to advocate for yourself and trust your body’s wisdom
👉 The importance of marrying traditional medicine with holistic tools for lasting wellness
If you’ve ever felt dismissed by the healthcare system, overwhelmed by quick fixes, or unsure how to make the best decisions for your health—you’ll leave this conversation feeling informed, empowered, and reminded that you are your own best advocate.
🎧 Tune in now and share this episode with a friend who needs encouragement on their health journey.
