Hey there, warrior. In this deeply personal episode of Getas Digest, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Erin to unpack the tangled web connecting gut health, chronic illness, and trauma. Imagine your body as a house—each room holding pieces of your story, even the ones you’ve tried to lock away. We’re here to explore how those hidden rooms can impact your health and how to gently open the doors toward healing.

We dive into the ripples of complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD), not just in your mind but in every fiber of your being. From the triggers that parenting can unveil to the fight, flight, and freeze responses, this episode is about uncovering the messages your body sends and learning to read them with compassion.

You’ll hear us reframe chronic illness not as a punishment but as a sacred signal—a protective mechanism urging you to slow down, lean in, and truly listen. I share my own journey and how somatic work, and emotional release have been lifelines, while Dr. Erin shines a light on the transformative power of community and the magic of self-discovery in healing.

The healing journey is less about having all the answers and more about trusting the wisdom your body already holds. So, grab your tea, settle in, and let’s rewrite the narrative together.
