  • Journey to Limitless: Navigating Mysterious Illness & Finding the Light Through the Dark: Alex Macfarlane's Journey with Long Covid

    Send us Fan Mail

    On today's episode we have my friend Alex Macfarlane on the show to share his journey of navigating mysterious illness for MONTHS before his Long Covid diagnosis. 

    The beauty of Alex's story is that he eventually was able to find FAITH & PURPOSE again after months of hopelessness & depression. 

    Alex & I talked about: 

    • When his symptoms started and in general that whole journey 
    • How attachment to feeling better actually hinders our healing
    • Feeling the pressure of when other people want you to feel better, but it just isn't happening
    • SURRENDING & bringing FAITH into the picture
    • Healing modalities that impacted Alex's journey
    • Trusting that YOU know what you need for your health: whether that is western medicine, eastern medicine, or a combo of both
    • Alex's experience of learning to accept the chronic illness card that he was dealt
    • Not needing to understand WHY chronic illness is apart of our journey but TRUSTING that this is apart of your deeper purpose & plan 
    • Honoring the stage of grief that you are in
    • Learning to be at PEACE with CHANGE
    • Alex's Long COVID Relief Program 
    • Tony Robbin's Priming Technique: What is priming, and how can it help you succeed in life? (tonyrobbins.com)

  • Journey to Limitless: How Is Your Chronic Illness SERVING YOU? 6 Gifts That Ulcerative Colitis Has Given Me!

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today's episode is inspired by a conversation I was having with my friend Michaela in the sauna. I had the realization of how health focused I am TODAY & how much I used to WANT this so bad for me. 

    & truly I have my chronic illness to thank for that.

    In today's episode I talked about: 

    • How having gratitude for your chronic illness is DIFFERENT than  toxic positivity 
    • What I was telling myself WHILE in a severe flare to help me through
    • Not needing to know WHY something is happening but having FAITH that it's going to teach you a valuable lesson 
    • The lesson I learned about slowing down 
    • Learning to take care of my health & becoming the person I want to be
    • How my chronic illness checks me back into ALIGNMENT
    • How my chronic illness is helping me heal in DEEPER ways
    • Learning to truly LOVE myself & have SELF COMPASSION

  • Journey to Limitless: Healing Our Inner Child: A BEGINNER'S Guide

    Send us Fan Mail

    I was VERY intimidated by diving deep into my past. I also had a sense that I didn't need to heal my inner child because "It's made me who I am today & I'm so grateful!" 

    Can you relate? 

    But what I've realized lately is that even if we have a positive perspective about our childhood...that's often just the SURFACE LEVEL. 

    So, that's why we are talking about this today in this very RAW episode because since diving deep into this work over the last few months there has been so much that has been coming to the surface. 

    In this episode we chat about:

    • Why we deserve to heal our inner child
    • How our patterns are deep rooted 
    • Healing our inner child so we can have SELF COMPASSION 
    • Why healing our inner child will help us break patterns & could help our chronic illness 
    • The importance of support in your journey & not doing this work alone
    • How bringing awareness to your patterns is the FIRST STEP & how to dive deeper into awareness
    • Somatic therapy & why this has been profound on my healing journey

    Today we are chatting with my friend Jake who is a chronic Lyme warrior & has been through SO much over his 16-year journey (seriously his story had my jaw drop) but he has an AMAZING PERSPECTIVE on his chronic illness & has learned to EMBRACE IT. 

    In this episode Jake & I chat about: 

    • his Lyme journey & how difficult it was to get a diagnosis
    • The tools & practices that have been the most impactful for Jake during the really difficult times
    • Becoming the person that you want to be through your illness journey 
    • Tips to practice mindfulness if meditating at a mat is difficult for you
    • The different mindsets that Jake has had throughout his Lyme journey & where he is today
    • What has been impactful for me (Court) to remember/keep in mind when in the trenches of a really difficult flare 
    • The importance of reminding yourself that it's OKAY to be sad/mad 

    We reference the book Atomic Habits by James Clear a few times. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!

    About the guest, Jake:
    Jake Mayers is a Transformational Coach that helps people regain control of life. Jake turned the pain of his 16-year battle with chronic Lyme Disease into his mission to help others. But first, he failed Kindergarten- yes, it’s okay to laugh. That was when he began cultivating the ability to respond to challenges in an empowering way. He learned to embrace his unique differences as opportunities, rather than obstacles. That mindset propelled him through Lyme Disease and into launching a coaching business to help people live more fulfilled lives!

  • Journey to Limitless: How I've Built SELF WORTH + CONFIDENCE Over the Years

    Send us Fan Mail

    In today's episode I wanted to share openly & honestly how I have built self worth + confidence in myself over the years because I don't think the journey is talked about enough. 

    No one wants to admit that they aren't confidence in themselves or were not confident. & I whole heartedly understand that. & Honestly this episode is very VULNERABLE for me to share but I think it's important. 

    As I recovered from my previous UC flare, I realized I handled things differently than 24-year-old me did, and it came down to this foundation of SELF WORTH that I have built. 

    I remember 23/24 year old me just wanting to feel better about herself. She just wanted to not hate herself. I know 23/24 year old me is so RELIEVED that I finally have some self worth TODAY as a 28 year old woman. 

    In this episode I share: 

    • Where I was at 23/24 years old and what contributed to my lack of self-worth 
    • My transformation: Where I am TODAY at 28 years old
    • How therapy catapulted my self worth journey 
    • How deep rooted self-worth goes: it's not in our DNA to feel insecure, we are CONDITIONED. 
    • How I started really getting to know myself & OWNING who I am!
    • How being vulnerable with my struggles has EMPOWERED me
