3-Day Fast: Tools of Liberation — Join Our Live Group Fast After Thanksgiving w/ Dr. Katie Deming

3-day fast, water fasting, and tools of liberation: Dr. Katie Deming, MD, joins Freddie Kimmel to explore how a short, intentional fast quiets food noise, frees up mental energy, and turns healthy habits into freedom instead of one more protocol. This is a joint release with the Born to Heal podcast. Katie is a radiation oncologist whose practice now centers on supervised water fasting. Together they preview the group fast they're co-leading right after Thanksgiving.
