Healing isn’t something we’re meant to do alone. In this episode, we explore how community, whether it’s a sisterhood or a circle of survivors, has the power to lift us through our most challenging seasons. I’ll share stories of connection, the impact of showing up for one another, and why leaning into community can be the medicine your soul has been waiting for.

Our bodies tell stories—through illness, surgeries, age, and all the unexpected changes along the way. In this episode, we talk about what it means to love yourself in every season, to honor the boundaries your body sets, and to embrace the truth that you are still becoming. No matter what you’ve faced or lost, your body is still beautiful, still powerful, and still yours.

Even after the scars, the surgeries, the weight shifts, and the moments you don’t recognize yourself in the mirror—your body is still worthy. In this episode, I’m sharing the raw truth about learning to embrace a body that has been through battles, betrayals, and breakthroughs. We’ll talk about self-acceptance, compassion, and why your worth is never tied to perfection.

Let’s talk about how to take care of US in these crazy unprecedented times.

Let’s talk about the journey of healing with all its challenges AND all the of the benefits of going through it!
