Heal Yourself. Change Your Life™

284: How Letting Go of the Need for Approval Can Heal Pain and Transform Your Life


Listen Later

What if your chronic pain wasn’t just physical but rooted in the emotional pattern of always needing to be approved of or validated by others?

In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Brandy works with Mary, a deeply authentic and courageous volunteer who has lived with chronic pain for over 34 years. Brandy shares insights on how a lifetime of approval-seeking, especially from family, has quietly fueled her suffering—and how releasing that pattern begins to shift everything.

As Brandy gently guides Mary through this healing process, you’ll witness firsthand how our thoughts, emotions, and energy shape our physical experience—and how creating even a small inner shift can open the door to lasting transformation.

💡 If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of people-pleasing, self-judgment, or emotional overwhelm, this episode will speak directly to your heart—and remind you that change is truly possible.

✨ In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • How approval-seeking can create energetic blocks and chronic pain

  • What it looks like to begin building true inner confidence

  • The exact moment Mary starts to release her pain—and how you can too

You are not alone in this. As you listen, you may begin to see parts of your own journey in Mary’s—and feel a gentle invitation to release what no longer serves you.

This episode offers more than insight. It offers a pathway inward—to the peace, clarity, and healing that are already within you.

💖 Tune in now to reconnect with your heart, your body, and the innate wisdom that’s always been there, waiting for you to hear it.

IMPORTANT NOTE: We understand that some may believe mind-body healing is impossible. Therefore, if you would like to see images of individuals using their minds to relieve pain, you can check out this medical journal. It includes images from some of Brandy's case studies. If you want to learn how to use your mind to heal yourself, you can check out the training on Brandy's website. Each week, Brandy publishes a volunteer episode where she coaches a volunteer to heal themselves using their own mind. In addition, Brandy shares a quick IQ episode (Insights and Questions) where she answers listener questions or delves deeper into insights on working with the mind for healing.
