09. Rebalanced and Resilient: Hair, Skin, Nails, and Spirit

The Vital Spirit Podcast with Dr. Kelly Livingston

What if your hair loss or skin changes weren’t cosmetic problems but sacred invitations to go deeper?

In this final phase of The Vital Spirit Method, we enter Pillar Four: Rebalanced & Resilient, where we shift from managing symptoms to embodying radiance—from the outside in and the inside out.

Yes, we talk about hair loss, brittle nails, dry skin, histamine flares, and hormone imbalances, but we also explore how these visible signs are often rooted in nutrient depletion, stress responses, and even spiritual disconnect. In this episode, I guide you through the physical and emotional patterns that emerge during midlife and how to integrate body, mind, and soul medicine to feel real, radiant, and rooted again.

In this episode, we cover:

• 05:00 Hormonal changes, histamine flares & thyroid imbalances in perimenopause
• 08:00 Nutrient depletions and gut-skin connection
• 11:00 What to do when all your labs are “normal” but you still feel off
• 13:00 Midlife as a spiritual initiation: from perfectionism to presence
• 20:00 Ego vs. soul work: getting quiet, real, and deeply healed
• 24:00 Archetypal healing, sacred contracts & the journey to your true self
• 26:00 The embodied radiance that emerges when healing is integrated
