From Depleted to Energized: Functional Health with Ricarda van der Walt
About this episode
Leslie Gaudet and Ricarda van der Walt discuss practical strategies for restoring energy and improving health through functional approaches.
Join Leslie Gaudet and Ricarda van der Walt, qualified nutritional therapist and mother of four, for a grounded and practical conversation about restoring energy at the root. After navigating her own experience with IBS, stress-related symptoms, and supporting her daughter through eczema, Ricarda turned her personal healing journey into a mission to help busy, worn-out individuals rebuild their health with clarity and confidence. In this episode, Ricarda shares why so many high-functioning individuals normalize fluctuating energy, digestive discomfort, and low immunity—and what those symptoms may actually be signaling. You’ll hear how gut health and stress are deeply connected, why functional testing can remove the guesswork from your wellness plan, and how small, strategic changes can create steady, sustainable vitality—even in a time-poor life. If you’ve been pushing through exhaustion and calling it “normal,” this conversation will invite you to reconsider what’s possible when you stop overriding your body and start building real foundations for wellbeing. ******************************************************************** Connect with me…
