Lisa Frattini was in severe pain when an MRI showed an abnormality that scared her to death. As I know from experience, seeing a significant problem inside one’s body and hearing about a dark prognosis from a physician can really rock your world. After a childhood of people pleasing and overcaring for those around her, Lisa was overflowing with big feelings and the vestiges of stored trauma. 

I have had the privilege of being with Lisa for years in community and at our June OMEGA retreats in New York, and she has an amazing story to tell. Join us for a triumphant and joyful conversation about pain, fear, community, and ultimately a chronic pain-free life. I’m excited to share it with you. XOOX n.

Danielle wears so many hats in this work - my best most loving friend, my recovery sister, the one who believed in this for others before she knew it was for her too, the one who listened to my "gentle suggestion" to do this work for herself when a symptom was literally stealing her life and her joy, the success story who shined on this podcast three times before, and now... A BREAKAWAKE COACH! Dani is a gem in the world, and she articulates so well why being seen and heard by someone who gets it can really change the game of healing. Join us for this fun and enlightening conversation! XOXO n.

People can be our biggest tiggers. Opposing views and perspectives on issues that are dear to us feel dangerous. Symptoms flare when we repress our feelings to keep the peace. But the alternative—conflict—feels unsafe too. How do we walk that tightrope, honoring our need for authenticity and belonging? Differing ideas & opinions are everywhere — family, friends, online. We have two default options:  Repress/avoid → peace outside, conflict inside → symptoms.  Explode/confront → release inside, rupture outside → unsafe.  The “tightrope”: How do we balance our need for both authenticity and belonging? Let's discuss it all! XO n.

Claire was having strange symptoms she didn't understand after a day of swimming and diving. She was dizzy (at times severely), having balance and mobility issue, and experiencing pain in her head and neck. Of course, this was all terrifying and confusing. After many specialists and much despair, Claire found this work and her story is both inspiring and instructive. There is nothing better (for me!) than hearing these tales of hope and healing. Spoiler - she's all better. Join us for a conversation that could change your perspective and maybe even your life. XOOX n.

Podcast music by the beautiful and talented Danielle Furst: @musicfurst 

It's so easy and human to get lost in the fear that we are "not okay." It's so tempting in the middle of the night to despair about things that may come from a night of no sleep. It's so natural to pre-grieve and obsess about symptoms and fear we don't have the fortitude to endure hard things. Today on the pod I give you a healthy dose of perspective, one that is changing the game for me. When we can normalize that which is indeed possible within the realm of the human spirit, we gain a superpower to endure and heal. Join us! XOOX n.

Today I sit down with Phil De La Haye for an IFS session on...me! Phil de la Haye is a Certified IFS Therapist, Counsellor, and SIRPA Practitioner. He has a particular interest in the way that stress and trauma impact the nervous system, and how this can affect our physical body as well as our mental health. 

As a transgender and queer clinician, Phil does a lot of work with queer and gender diverse clients. He is also an advocate for the trans and LGBTQ+ community. Phil is a long term JournalSpeaker, and he’s been involved in my online community since 2020 when he began his own recovery from many years of chronic symptoms. Enjoy!

Phil’s 1:1 therapy practice is currently full, but he runs regular workshops about how to use IFS in your own self-healing work. He has also just started to provide some short-term IFS therapy groups.

The best way to find out about Phil’s offerings is by signing up to his newsletter through his website at www.phildelahaye.com or by joining his Facebook Community: Phil de la Haye: IFS and Mindbody Healing.

I can't overstate how many emails I get about Long Covid and the alarming symptoms associated with it - Brain fog and Chronic Fatigue among many others. No case exemplifies these concerns like Gary's. When this episode first aired, Gary was overwhelmed with gratitude for having TOTALLY recovered from Long Covid which wreaked havoc on his life. Today he is still 100% well. If you haven't heard this one, or even if you simply haven't heard it in a while, tune in for Gary's astonishing story. If there's any episode to stoke belief in and dedication to the process, it's this one. No matter who you are or however this finds you, allow Gary to be an inspiration to commit to this work and see yourself through. This is your life, and you are worth it. xoxo n.

When Jonah Primo, host of the in-app podcast Work in Progress on the WAKING UP app contacted us, Lisa and I were elated. We are long time fans of WAKING UP and its founder, neuroscientist Sam Harris, and we were enthusiastic about sharing space with such a like-minded person. But that was just the beginning. Jonah's own pain story was stunning, and we quickly jumped on the chance to have him on our podcast to tell his tale of complete despair to recovery using the mindset and tools of MindBody medicine. After being a totally health and athletic 27-year-old, Jonah found himself so swallowed by a laundry list of symptoms that he quite literally struggled to walk. As he became skeptical of the medical model to cure his pain, he turned in our direction and the rest is history. Join us for a striking tale of recovery from some of the most common (yet most terrifying) symptoms we hear about - vertigo, migraines, anxiety, and the dreaded Long Covid. I know you will get so much out of what we discuss. Much love! xoxo n.

Bri really went through it. Her myriad TMS symptoms cascaded into panic attacks so severe that she had to put her entire life on hold (including her marriage), take her kids, and move in with her mother to be taken care of. This is not an unusual story. As I always remind you, although TMS is completely curable with my methods, the pain IS NOT in your head. You are not dramatic, overly sensitive, or making it up. Bri was sidelined pretty severely before learning about Dr. Sarno, and then me. On that day, her life changed. Walk with us as we share an incredible and inspiring story of total chronic pain recovery. And Bri has some pretty great advice for all of us at the end.

Sending you all so much love. This is hard work, but you can do it. You can be free. xx, n.
