In today’s episode, I sit down with Deb Malkin to explore what it truly means to reclaim your body, your agency, and your sense of safety from the inside out. Deb’s story of overcoming years of debilitating knee pain isn’t just about symptoms resolving—it’s about a paradigm shift. We talk about what happens when you stop assuming your body is broken, and instead begin listening to it, partnering with it, and seeing it as a safe place to return to. Deb learned to align with her body rather than fight it, and the result was profound physical and emotional transformation.

We also dive into internalized weight stigma, body image, and the external pressures that shape how we view ourselves. Deb brings so much clarity around the harm of cultural narratives that tell us our bodies must look a certain way to be worthy or healthy. We talk about how those beliefs create nervous system activation, fear, shame, and pain—and how shifting into compassion, curiosity, and trust becomes its own form of healing. This conversation isn’t just about knee pain. It’s about liberation, empowerment, and remembering that your body is not a problem to fix—it’s home. XOOX n.
