Austyn Yarbrough

Hi Austyn, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start, maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers. 
I started my business right at the heart of covid. I am a functional medicine doctor and chiropractor that mostly works with women. I was currently working in a corporation right before I decided to start my own little practice because I was not seeing people heal in that setting the way that I wanted to. 

I am incredibly passionate because I have gone through struggles with my own health. When I was a young teen, I was in a bad gymnastics accident that left me with a diagnosis called Palatal myoclonus. I get about 100 mini seizures a day, but you would not know because they are in my soft palate. This started to influence my gut, and then later on, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. 

Throughout the years, there have been many sleepless nights, cries, and times I thought I wanted to give up, but every single time I did, I would go do that thing that was even more scary, even harder, and not take no for an answer. Eventually that led to me healing myself, but also wanting to heal others. 

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
The road while building my business has not been easy, nor do I think building a successful business for anyone is! 

I started at one chiropractic college that I almost gave up at. I was bullied in different circumstances (never had been bullied in my life) and When I was the lowest I had ever been because of my health and loss, I picked up all of my things and moved within 3 days across the country, not knowing one person to change my environment, get motivated and focused, and make sure I was going to be successful. 

My success doesn’t come from me WANTING return, it literally comes from me caring- sometimes I think too much. I want to create success to give back to women eventually that cannot afford the care that they need. I want to change the world with this business. 

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next, you can tell us a bit more about your business.
I am a holistic physician that has an online functional nutrition practice. I specialize in detoxification, gut health, hormones, weight loss, and inflammation. I believe that nutrition and supplementation is vital to reach optimal health. 

Whether one needs basic diet adjustments to decrease inflammation or more in-depth work, we are here to help patients reach their goals in their health and healing journey. Some things we focus on are supplementation based on blood panels and hormone panels, comprehensive nutritional analysis based on detailed history and surveys, detoxification to treat internal disorders, and detailed workout plans. We strive to educate the public on the effects of synthetics on health. 

What do you think about happiness?
Spending time with family, hanging out with friends, my cat and dog, hiking, eating healthy, yoga, travel, and reading!
