Hi friends! I'm SO excited to share this week's episode with symptom support coach Rachel Reimer, where we explore the fascinating connection between emotions and the body, and how unprocessed stress can show up as chronic symptoms, pain, and even autoimmune issues. Rachel shares how she helps clients uncover the emotional roots of their physical ailments - bridging the gap between traditional medicine and emotional healing. This conversation is such an eye-opener if you've ever felt stuck in your healing journey or wondered what your body might be trying to tell you.

Here's what we discuss:

• Rachel's path from chronic illness to becoming a symptom support coach, also known as a medical intuitive

• How the body uses symptoms as a signal that something deeper needs attention

• The difference between intellectual and emotional processing of stress

• How to identify unresolved emotions that may be stored in the body

• Common emotional roots behind conditions like back pain, thyroid issues, and autoimmune disease

• The link between self-criticism, Type-A tendencies, and chronic illness

• Rachel's "knot" exercise for emotional release and symptom relief

• Real-life client transformations—from chronic pain to deep emotional healing

• Why physical healing alone isn't enough without emotional integration

• And so. much. more!

This one's for anyone who's ever said "I've tried everything" and still hasn't found answers: Rachel's perspective just might change the way you think about your health forever.

If any of my fellow health professional friends are looking for another way to help their clients, I highly recommend IHP. You can also use this information to heal yourself and then go one to heal others, which I think is a beautiful mission. You can absolutely join if you don't currently work in the health or fitness industry; many IHPs don't begin on this path. They're friends who are passionate to learn more about health and wellness, and want to share this information with those they love. You can do this as a passion, or start an entirely new career.
