Let’s be honest - sometimes “doing the work” becomes just another way to avoid feeling it.

We journal, meditate, manifest, optimize, and call it healing... but underneath it, our nervous system is still bracing.

In this conversation, I open up about what it means to stop performing healing and finally embody it. I share my own journey as a high achiever learning to rest, surrender, and move through the dark night of the soul — the season where everything you’ve learned stops working, and life asks you to integrate, not perform.

You’ll learn:

• Why your nervous system can’t heal through force - only through safety and presence.
• What the Dark Night of the Soul really is (and why it’s not punishment, but purification).
• How to recognize when you’re “doing” healing instead of feeling it.
• Real-life tools for somatic rest, emotional regulation, and nervous system integration.
• How to move from self-improvement to self-intimacy - from fixing yourself to finally meeting yourself.

This episode isn’t about chasing your highest self.

It’s about remembering your wholeness — even in the quiet, messy, beautifully human moments.
