What happens when you bury emotional trauma? Where do those unprocessed feelings GO? Do they lodge themselves in your physical body, causing acute or chronic illnesses like diabetes or even cancer?

For my guest this week, Irma Lorena McGraw, the answer was a resounding YES. Having completely buried her feelings about terminating an unplanned pregnancy, Irma Lorena was shocked to be diagnosed with cervical cancer, pre-diabetes, high cholesterol, and PCOS—all before her 30th birthday and despite being in excellent physical condition as a lifelong athlete.

Tune in to hear:

• How she went from feeling hopeless and suicidal to CANCER-FREE and genuinely joyful—in just a few short years
• The 3 key moves that allowed her to take back the reins of her mental, emotional AND PHYSICAL health—without a prescription, surgery, or any other medical intervention
• How she recovered from a devastating late-stage miscarriage... and what this experience has taught her about grief, forgiveness, and vulnerability

Get a box of tissues (and keep them handy), because this episode is packed with ALL OF THE FEELS...

What would you change about your life if you suddenly faced the end of it? This is the question we'll explore this week with my guest Jennie, Cruise, whose multiple near-death experiences taught her to believe that "Everything—and I mean everything—is a gift, albeit occasionally wrapped in sandpaper."

About My Guest:

Barbara Katsnelson (aka "the awareness muse") is a sex + love coach who has been helping women create epic love and extraordinary pleasure inside and outside of the bedroom for over twelve years. Her journey started when she hit rock bottom in her own romantic relationships (or as she calls them, “situation-ships”). Feeling completely lost, hopeless, and dead inside when it came to sex and pleasure, Barbara sought out the profound teachings of feminine leaders like Mama Gena, Sheila Kelley, and Layla Martin who helped her alchemize her own wounds into her signature Modern Goddess coaching methodology. She brings her irresistible flavor of helping women thrive in their love lives and beyond to the FUCK YES container.
