In today’s episode, I sit down with Dr. Cathleen King, founder of Primal Trust, for a deeply healing and eye-opening conversation about the power of nervous system regulation, brain retraining, and trauma recovery as the true path to lasting wellness.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of chronic illness, burnout, or endless healing protocols that never seem to work… this episode will change everything. We unpack how your brain and body create patterns of protection — and how you can finally rewire them to feel safe, free, and alive again.

Dr. Cat shares her own journey of healing from chronic Lyme disease and complex trauma, and how that experience inspired her to create the Primal Trust community — a space that helps thousands of people recover through brain retraining, somatics, and nervous system healing.

We talk about:

•          Why the body can’t heal if the brain doesn’t feel safe

•          How trauma and chronic illness are intertwined

•          The difference between real healing and managing symptoms

•          Tools to regulate your nervous system in real time

•          The spiritual and energetic layers of brain rewiring

•          Why “doing less” often creates the biggest breakthroughs

Whether you’re healing from chronic illness, fatigue, anxiety, or just feeling stuck — this conversation is the bridge between science and soul healing.
