“I’m fine.”
That’s a four letter word. But are you really fine? Often we rush through life with blinders on, disconnected from our inner spark. We don’t know how good we could potentially feel. As a functional medicine expert in burnout and stress, I help patients and health professionals optimize their brain-body balance to bring renewed vitality and fall in love with their life again.

Finding harmony in a
world of dissonance.
I’m Dr. Lara Salyer, and I help motivated high-performers redesign their life by identifying areas that block flow and strategically plan methods to mitigate fatigue, move through burnout, and emerge as a flourishing, embodied protagonist of their own story.
Rewind to 2016, when I was shocked to discover myself struggling with burnout 15 years into my career as a rural family medicine physician. I started painting, drawing and running. This regular dose of blissful neurochemical flow resulted in improved autonomy, wellbeing, and decreased stress, inspiring me to pursue additional certifications from the Institute for Functional Medicine and Flow Research Collective.
As your “Chief Creativity Catalyst,” I work collaboratively with you to structure our sessions and solidify a plan that makes the most sense for your goals. I use a blend of cognitive-behavioral and solutions-focused coaching along with evidence-based holistic recommendations to teach you how to optimize your dysregulated stress response and achieve ideal brain-body resonance.
You’ll excavate your core values, spot places of self-sabotage, engage your neuroplasticity and learn how to tap into creative flow on demand so you can paint your work/life masterpiece.

Personal Life
Born and raised in the Midwest, I met my husband, CJ Smith, in medical school. We settled in Monroe, Wisconsin to raise our three children. The power of Cheese Days is only made stronger by having my office located on the quaint downtown square. I enjoy long distance running (awarded Not-Last-Place in the 2016 Chicago Marathon), making messy art (Undefeated Pictionary Champion since 1993), playing clarinet, and geeking out about all things creative.

![[EXPLICIT] Coming up this Friday on The Catalyst... Cortisol, Boundaries, and Menopause...Oh My!
.
This week's guest is Stephanie Fusnik, Owner of Vitality Osteopathic and Exercise Therapy.
.
Stephanie has worked in the health and fitness industry since 2013 first as a personal trainer, and then as an exercise and neurokinetic therapist, manual osteopathic therapist, and nutrition coach. She found as she progressed through her education and career that there were huge gaps in the health care system and the way it approached not only physical rehabilitation but also chronic disease and weight loss.
.
After working with clients who were “doing everything right” by “eating less and moving more” yet still not getting the results they should, she really dove into the roles of hormones and metabolism. Then she realized that her female clients going through peri menopause (and onwards) had different struggles and that hormones, cortisol, and metabolism were the most important things to address for not only weight loss but increased quality of life as well! She grew tired of hearing that women would go to their doctors saying that they felt like their bodies were being taken over by aliens, they did not feel like themselves anymore, and that they were really struggling with their weight yet all they were told to do was to eat less, move more, and that it was just “how things are now”.
.
She became passionate about empowering women, by educating them on how their bodies change during this time in their lives so they can finally reach their health and fitness goals, live a life full of vitality and feel in control and at home in their bodies again.
