As women, many of us go through life without fully realizing how deeply our self-worth has been impacted by past experiences, societal pressures, or internalized beliefs. These silent wounds can diminish our self-worth and hold us back from creating the life we truly desire and deserve. But healing is possible, and it begins with the courage to look within and honor our intrinsic value. Acupuncture offers a beautiful, gentle path to healing, inviting us to quiet our minds and reconnect with the deep, intuitive knowing that resides within us. By aligning our body’s energy, acupuncture helps us clear away the blocks that keep us small, empowering us to rediscover our worth, step into our power, and live a life filled with purpose, confidence, and joy.

In this episode, we talk about how acupuncture can help you tap into your self-worth and reconnect with your inner knowing with a returning guest, Jacques Depardieu. Jacques is nationally board-certified in acupuncture and traditional Chinese pharmacology and has been practicing for over 25 years. He has a masters in oriental medicine and has been a Qigong practitioner for over 30 years. Jacques is a self-described advocate for the human spirit, having treated thousands of individuals for a wide array of conditions. He understands the role that spirit, creativity, and spontaneity play in creating health and recovery.
