In this episode, Heather McKean and Carrie unpack Carrie’s decades-long battle with pain, caretaking, and dissociation—and how the Mind Change Method led her to rediscover her true self. From hip pain to heartbreak, ruminating thoughts to relationship tension, Carrie’s journey is a powerful testament to what’s possible when you stop managing life and start feeling it. Whether you’re a healer, seeker, or skeptic, this episode will inspire hope, healing, and the courage to rewrite your story.
