Episode 25- Healing From Chronic Illness With Ava Young

In this powerful episode of Barefaced and Unbridled, we sit down with Ava Young, Platinum Certified Coach in Cellular Detox and Head of Consulting Content and Training for the Pompa Program, to hear the incredible story of how she went from being bed-bound as a teenager to thriving in the wellness world today. Ava opens up about her journey through chronic illness, including Lyme disease, Hashimoto’s, mono, and vaccine injury, and how these layers of illness led her to discover the Pompa Program, which ultimately saved her life. We talk about what’s missing in most healing protocols, how chronic inflammation impacts every system in the body, and how to know if you’re ready for true detox. Ava shares what it really means to support the body at a cellular level and how doing so can restore energy, brain function, and hope when nothing else seems to work. You'll also hear about her favorite non-negotiables (like mushroom coffee + marshmallows), and how she balances deep healing with joy and routine. Ava now helps people detox at a cellular level through a multi-phase process that addresses root cause inflammation, improves hormone function, supports mitochondrial repair, and helps the body heal itself the way it was designed to.
