Today’s episode perfectly encompasses this month’s theme of framily (friends plus family). Our conversation really focuses on the gut, our microbiome, and how we not only impact our health and immune system but our friends and family — the people we surround ourselves with every day — do as well. Today our guest is Ashley Harris! Ashley owns this amazing company called Lovebug Probiotics. We actually love it so much that Sophie even sells it on her own site, Philosophie Superfoods. We use them every day and even with our kids too! Having a high-quality probiotic is so important to your lifestyle and we’re so excited to have her on the podcast today to share all about the importance of incorporating a probiotic into your lifestyle! In the story Ashley tells us today, she explains why she created her company, Lovebug, out of necessity for herself, her family, and especially her child. It’s an incredibly insightful and powerful story that really sheds light on the power of probiotics and how crucial these healthy bacteria can be to our health! Ashley also shares some awesome tips for maintaining gut health and your microbiome, explains why the people you surround yourself with can greatly impact your physical health, and speaks about how your mental health impacts your gut health and vice-versa.
