Dealing with resistance to being in your own body? Maybe your body just doesn't feel like a safe place to be? On today's show I invite Nitika Chopra, chronic illness advocate and creator of Chronicon, to talk about her personal journey to healing and the passion she has for her mission to inspire self-love and help others learn to thrive with chronic illness.

We get deep into:

• Nitika's journey to advocacy and creating her platform for chronically ill folks to build connection
• What can happen when you make healing the ultimate goal in your life
• The one thing her inner voice told her that changed her whole life
• How damaging the toxic positivity cycle can be and how Nitika broke out of it
• Balancing the spiritual with the real pain and trauma that disease brings
• Recognizing trauma in the body and how powerful it can be for transformation
• Why Nitika started working with a therapist even though it was outside the norm in her culture
• The relationship between pain and pleasure and how that has shown up in her life
• An important first step to discovering your own pleasure (and why it's okay if you find this difficult!)
• And so much more!
