EP204: Healing IBS, Anxiety, and Medical Gaslighting w/guest Atavia Minoudis

Jul 24, 2025

In this episode of Hope Natural Health, Dr. Erin chats w/guest Atavia Minoudis about IBS and medical gaslighting. 

Atavia Minoudis is a fully registered Nutritional Therapist specializing in IBS, bringing a valuable background in Psychology and Counselling to her practice. Her journey into nutritional therapy was deeply personal: in her twenties, she faced significant health challenges, becoming dangerously underweight and barely leaving her bedroom. Despite her love for food, her gut battled IBS, and when she sought help, she was often told "there's nothing wrong with you" and simply advised to eat more.

Determined to understand her own gut health, Atavia spent the next three years exhaustively studying Nutritional Therapy while working full-time. Now, having uncovered the truth about irritable bowel syndrome, she is on a passionate mission to share this knowledge with women everywhere, empowering them to overcome IBS and its debilitating symptoms, and ultimately master their gut health.

During this episode you will learn about:

• The role mindset plays in overcoming IBS
• Practical strategies that you can implement today to calm your nervous system
• Common misconceptions about IBS
