Just Be Yourself: Moving from Chronic Pain to Joy


Listen Later

What happens when pain becomes your constant companion—and no doctor can explain why?

In this episode, Virginia interviews Heidi Kennedy, a Catholic mindset coach whose 13-year battle with chronic back pain, anxiety, and depression led her to a breakthrough that changed her life.

After years of failed treatments, Heidi discovered the mind-body connection and the healing power of faith, mindset, and self-compassion.

Heidi shares about overcoming perfectionism, learning to “just be yourself,” and finding wholeness by integrating mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health.

Whether you’re struggling with illness, stress, or self-doubt, this episode offers real hope, practical insights, and a deeply Catholic perspective on what it means to heal from the inside out.
