What if pain isn’t just physical—but perceptual?
In this off-the-cuff solo episode, I share a deeply personal story that changed everything I thought I knew about suffering, healing, and what’s possible for the body. From a nearly pain-free childbirth (yes, really) to a powerful client breakthrough around chronic pain, this episode is a living case study in the power of narrative and perception to reshape what we believe is “inevitable.”
This is a conversation about story medicine—and how your body listens to the stories you’ve been told.
What You’ll Discover:
✨ Why “pain is inevitable” is a cultural script, not a biological truth
✨ How my second birth experience (using Hypnobabies) was 99.9% pain-free
✨ What my patient’s resistance to healing taught me about collective beliefs
✨ The link between trauma, identity, and nervous system feedback loops
✨ How stories shape biology—and why your environment must reflect your possibility
✨ Why “support groups” can reinforce illness—and how to create spaces that open new timelines
Whether you're navigating Crohn’s, chronic pain, emotional survival patterns or beyond—this is a reminder that what you've been told isn't the whole story.
