Healthy-ish Through Health Crisis - with Gillian Goerzen


Listen Later

Chronic illness, health crises, serious health conditions: the question often is, can you be Healthy-ish when the "ish" hits the fan? The answer is, not only can you but it's a relly, really great way to make the management of certain illnesses much easier, with great results. Today, I'm talking with Gillian Goerzen - a body positive health coach, certified Intuitive Eating Counsellor and author who helps her clients ditch diets, programs and plans and reclaim their authentic approach to health + fitness. Tune i to hear about her incredible health event and how she's navigating the waters of chronic illness in Helathy-ish style.

We talk about:

  • the ways body acceptance can lead to ambivalence
  • Gillian's health crisis (spoiler: it involves MANY bee stings!)
  • the subsequent diagnosis of Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis
  • misconceptions about intuitive eating and what it means to live the deepest, truest version of IE
  • figuring out what makes her chronic illness worse and what doesn't. What's easy to eliminate, what's not.
  • understanding the patterns in our own bodies
  • the resistance to managing illness in a Healthy-ish way
