Elise Loehnen is helping redefine wellness. As the former chief content officer of goop and Gwyneth Paltrow’s right-hand woman, Elise understands health as the complex intersection of mental, physical and spiritual health. She has created a cult following through her own writing, Instagram monologues, and her hit podcast Pulling the Thread. Each week, she brings her fans on a journey of self-discovery, pondering life’s biggest questions alongside cultural luminaries like Gabor Mate, Susan Cain, and Nedra Tawwad, sprinkled with her signature warmth and curiosity.
On this episode of Beyond the Prescription, Dr. McBride and Elise discuss reconceptualizing what it means to be healthy. Elise talks about her own encounters with Western medicine, her complicated wellness journey, and how she envisions leading a healthy and fulfilling life. Elise opens up about the physical manifestations of emotional stress, the power of introspection, and her multi-factorial intuitive understanding of healing.
