Dawnversations: In My Head | Food, Mood, & Healing from the Inside Out-Trinity Pate and Missy Chase LaPine

Food, Mood, and the Microbiome: Healing from the Inside Out       
On this episode of Dawnversations, we dive into the fascinating world of the gut-brain axis and the microbiome with two incredible guests: Missy Chase Lapine and Trinity Pate.

Missy is the New York Times bestselling author, foodie, and Functional Health Coach™ whose own journey with low blood sugar and anxiety showed her how food can truly be medicine. Trinity brings the science, with an advanced degree from Oxford and published research on the gut-brain connection. Together, they co-host the Heal Thru Food community, blending research, real-life experience, and practical tools to help people reclaim their health.

We talk about why the gut and brain are so deeply connected, how food can impact mood, energy, and overall well-being, and what steps you can take today to support your microbiome. Plus, I get to learn more about Missy and Trinity’s personal paths into this work.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered why your stomach and your mind seem to be in constant conversation, this episode will give you both the science and the practical steps to start healing from the inside out.

What is Dawnversations: In My Head ?

⭐ Ranked Top 7 in Improv Podcast of the Month on Goodpods, and Top 10 in Funny & Life categories. Apparently talking to myself is working.

Welcome to Dawnversations: In My Head — Part Funny. Part Therapy. The podcast where the real conversations happen inside Dawn’s brain… and yes, it’s a lot. Join me every week as I talk honestly about life, overthinking, identity, style, midlife chaos, and whatever strange spiral I'm riding that day — often interrupted by my inner nag, Carol, who ALWAYS has something to say.
This isn’t self-help. It’s self-talk — relatable, raw, and slightly sarcastic in the best way.
If you’ve ever wondered “Is it just me?” — good news. It isn’t.
Ready or not… here we go. You can watch me on YouTube or listen anywhere you listen to your favorite podcasts!
