Founder Lisa Smith Wellness, Host Pretty Well Podcast
Lisa Smith, MS, RDN, LDN, CHWC is a functional medicine dietitian, gut health expert, and founder of Lisa Smith Wellness, where she helps women restore energy, balance hormones, and slow aging from the inside out.
After navigating her own health challenges – including leaky gut, Hashimoto’s, and significant hormone dysregulation – Lisa learned firsthand that symptom management isn’t the same as healing. Sustainable results come from understanding the gut–hormone–nervous system connection and addressing root causes, not just flare-ups.
Her work blends clinical precision with real-world practicality, helping women move from reactive and depleted to steady, clear, and deeply confident in their bodies again.
Lisa also hosts the globally ranked Top 2% Pretty Well Podcast, where she explores the deeper drivers behind gut health, hormone balance, and ageless vitality — and the science-backed strategies that actually move the needle.
