EP 8 // What to Do During a Symptom Flare (So You Don’t Spiral or Lose Hope)


Listen Later

Symptom flares can feel like a punch to the gut, especially when you’ve been doing everything “right.” They can make you question your progress, your body, and your entire healing journey. But what if a flare didn’t mean you were failing? What if it was actually a sign that your brain is learning something new?


In this episode, I’m walking you through exactly what to do (and what not to do) during a flare. You’ll learn how to shift your response in a way that keeps you out of fear loops and actually moves your healing forward…even when things feel like they’re getting worse.

This is for you if you’ve ever felt blindsided by a flare, stuck in overanalysis, or afraid that your symptoms mean you’ve done something wrong.

💡 This episode will help you:

  • Break the spiral of panic, fear, and overthinking during flares
  • Understand why flares happen (and why they don’t mean failure)
  • Learn a new way to respond that builds resilience and safety in the brain
  • Feel empowered, even in the messy moments of healing
  • It’s time to stop letting flares derail your progress and start using them as fuel for transformation.
