“I have autoimmune disease but it doesn’t have me”. WOW this interview is moving & inspiring. Today Chelsea talks with Michelle from Hapa Health, about her multiple autoimmune disease diagnoses, and the journey she took from symptoms so severe she couldn’t leave the house, to deeper emotional work and healing beyond food + supplements. We’re talking about listening to your body, giving yourself space to heal, root issues vs. bandaids, acknowledging that your body is on your side, feeling your feelings, creating an identity beyond your illness, navigating food fears, comparison, when healing diets aren’t enough or can become counterproductive, the role stress plays + managing chronic illness & unwanted symptoms in front of a significant other. If you are struggling with anything you will 100% feel less alone listening to this conversation. And if you’re feeling stuck all while doing everything right with food & supplements, yet still unwell, hopefully this inspires you to open up to deeper emotional & mindset work that may be the next step.
