Strap in for an engaging conversation with the remarkable Allison Graham. Not only is Allison an author of four books, but she applies her wisdom as a coach and speaker, assisting individuals in navigating life's challenges and identifying disruptive patterns. We unpack her unique perspective on designing the perfect morning routine, managing family chaos with an 'angst jar', and her forthcoming book on the illusion of stress.

Living with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a significant part of Allison's life, and she opens up about her daily struggles in a heart-to-heart discussion. Allison's personal strategies for mitigating her body's response to pain, including fasting for more than nine days, are revealed. She also discusses negotiating with doctors, handling medications, and dealing with insensitive family remarks about her condition. 

Navigating chronic pain and the importance of self-validation is a crucial part of our conversation. Allison shares a personal account of a party she hosted, illustrating the severity of her pain and the support she received from her friends. She provides valuable tips for managing pain, like using code words and setting energy limits for tasks, while emphasizing the importance of dismissing others' opinions about your pain. We wrap up our insightful chat by discussing the importance of self-care and resilience in managing chronic pain.
