"I can't explain the feeling, but it's as if everything was going to fall out of you"


In this episode, we sit down with Jasmine from Emerald and Tiger, a meditation teacher and energy healer, to explore her journey through endometriosis, perimenopause, and self-healing. From enduring a 20-year diagnostic delay to finding empowerment in her cycle, Jasmine shares raw, honest insights on body awareness, pain management, and the emotional highs and lows of women’s health.
