  • How People Pleasing, Codependency, and Perfectionism Keep the Nervous System Stuck with Béa Albina

    ⁠⁠⁠LEARN HOW TO JOURNALSPEAK

    In this episode, I’m joined by Béa Albina, nurse practitioner, somatic practitioner, and the author and creator of Emotional Outsourcing, for a conversation that gets right to the heart of why so many of us abandon ourselves in the name of being good, helpful, agreeable, easy, impressive, or needed. Béa defines emotional outsourcing as the chronic habit of sourcing our safety, belonging, and worth from everyone and everything outside of ourselves, instead of from within, and we unpack how deeply this pattern can become wired into the nervous system. For so many of us, especially women raised inside cultural expectations to be pleasant, useful, low-maintenance, and not “too much,” people pleasing and codependency were not personality flaws. They were survival strategies.

    This conversation is such an important bridge between the emotional life and the body. We talk about the way chronic self-abandonment, resentment, perfectionism, hypervigilance, and the constant scanning of other people’s moods can create a fertile environment for symptoms, anxiety, and nervous system dysregulation. Béa and I explore why awareness is the first doorway into healing, how somatic practices help us come back into relationship with ourselves, and why the smallest “newborn kitten steps” can be the beginning of profound change. We also talk about boundaries, self-compassion, the power of intentional language, and what it really means to stop outsourcing your sense of worth and begin building safety inside your own body.

    In this episode, we discuss emotional outsourcing as a new way to understand codependency, perfectionism, and people pleasing; why women are so often conditioned to disconnect from their needs in order to stay loved and accepted; how the nervous system learns to prioritize everyone else’s comfort over internal stability; the connection between self-silencing, resentment, chronic symptoms, and emotional repression; why somatic awareness and JournalSpeak are so aligned; how to begin asking the body what it needs; why boundaries are not about controlling other people but about deciding how we will take care of ourselves; and how self-compassion becomes the foundation for real healing instead of just another thing we try to perform perfectly.

    Béa’s work is compassionate, practical, funny, deeply intelligent, and beautifully aligned with the core message of this podcast: you are not broken, your body is not betraying you, and the patterns that once protected you can be understood, softened, and changed. This is a conversation about coming home to yourself, not in a cheesy way, but in the most biologically necessary way. Because when we stop living as if everyone else gets to decide whether we are safe, lovable, and worthy, the nervous system finally has a chance to exhale.

    Where to find Béa: Listen to her podcast, Feminist Wellness, read her book, End Emotional Outsourcing: How to Overcome Your Codependent, Perfectionist and People-Pleasing Habits, and find her on social media under her full name, Beatriz Victoria Albina NP.

    ⁠⁠The first day I saw Sean's face was on a group post to our private JournalSpeak FB community. He was excited and proud that he could do the splits again (I couldn't do them with all the JournalSpeak in the world) and he wanted to share. I was immediately taken by Sean's lovely energy and dedication to the work. I'm so excited to finally speak with him on the pod. Join us for a conversation that will most definitely help you to drop into your own TMS work more deeply and meaningfully.

  • How What We Eat Affects Anxiety, Stress, and Chronic Pain with Luis Mojica

    ⁠⁠LEARN HOW TO JOURNALSPEAK

    In this beautiful and deeply honest conversation, I’m joined by Luis Mojica, somatic therapist, trauma nutritionist, founder of Holistic Life Navigation, and author of Food Therapy. Luis and I talk about the place where our work so naturally overlaps: the truth that the body is always holding, expressing, protecting, and trying to create safety when life has felt like too much. Luis shares his own story of childhood trauma, chronic illness, body shame, disordered eating, and the long road toward feeling at home in his body. What unfolds is not a typical conversation about nutrition, diets, or “healthy eating,” but a much more compassionate and useful look at food as relationship, food as regulation, and food as a doorway into the parts of us that have been trying to survive.

    We talk about why so many people with chronic pain and chronic symptoms become terrified of food, how elimination diets can sometimes deepen fear instead of creating freedom, and why shame is often harder to metabolize than anything we eat. Luis explains his framework of stimulants, depressants, and balancers, not as good or bad foods, but as different kinds of nervous system information. We also explore overeating, cravings, glucose, adrenaline, bracing, food-induced stress, and the way our eating patterns can reveal what we are repressing, avoiding, or longing to feel. More than anything, this episode is an invitation to replace fear with curiosity, judgment with compassion, and rigid rules with a more embodied relationship to your own system. Join us! XOOX n.

  • When Symptoms Show Up: How to Calm Your Nervous System Before Fear Takes Over

    ⁠LEARN HOW TO JOURNALSPEAK

    In this episode, we dive into what it really means to move through life in alignment, especially when stress, symptoms, anxiety, and overwhelm are all trying to pull you into fear. I share a recent experience from my own life, during a season of major transition, travel, work, family milestones, and my youngest child graduating high school, when a strange new neuropathy-like sensation showed up in my face.

    Instead of spiraling, Dr. Googling (or Dr. ChatGPTing!), or giving the symptom a terrifying meaning, I used it as an opportunity to practice the work in real time: pausing, noticing, refusing to meet it with fear, and asking what my body might actually be trying to communicate. What came through was not danger, but a need for tenderness, self-compassion, and a gentler way of being with myself.

    I also share the story of sitting with a dear friend who is struggling with POTS, chronic fatigue, dizziness, nausea, and intense nervous system symptoms, and what happened when she was willing to meet those sensations differently. Rather than collapse into the first reaction of terror, she practiced sitting up, letting the symptoms be there, and discovering that uncomfortable does not have to mean unsafe.

    This episode is about the life-changing power of the pause between your first reaction and your second one. Your first reaction may be a reflex, shaped by everything you have lived, but your second reaction is where your agency lives. When we stop running from symptoms and begin meeting them with curiosity, compassion, and steadiness, we teach the nervous system that we are safe. Join us! XOOX n.

  • Nicole Sachs on The Jordan Harbinger Show: Chronic Pain, MindBody Healing, and the Questions Skeptics Are Right to Ask

    LEARN HOW TO JOURNALSPEAK

    This week’s episode is a little different than usual. I’m sharing my conversation with Jordan Harbinger from The Jordan Harbinger Show, where Jordan invited me into a thoughtful, curious, and respectful conversation about chronic pain, mind-body medicine, and the work I have spent my life teaching. What I loved most about this interview is that Jordan approached it the way so many people do when they first encounter this paradigm: interested, intelligent, and not willing to simply accept an idea without understanding it. That kind of skepticism is not a problem for me. In many ways, it is the perfect doorway into the work.

    In this conversation, we talk about what it really means when the brain and nervous system are involved in chronic symptoms, and why that never means the pain is fake, imagined, or “all in your head.” We explore how the body can become an expression of what the human being has not been able to process, and how chronic fight-or-flight can keep people stuck in very real pain, fatigue, anxiety, and other symptoms long after the original danger has passed. I also explain why belief matters, why doing the emotional work matters, and why patience and kindness for yourself are not soft add-ons, but central pieces of recovery.

    Jordan asks the questions many skeptical listeners might be thinking: How can pain be real if nothing is structurally wrong? How do emotions create physical symptoms? What does someone actually do with this information once they begin to understand it? These are the questions that make this conversation so valuable, whether you are brand new to this work, trying to explain it to someone you love, or deep into your own healing and wanting a clearer, more grounded way to understand what is happening in your body.

    I’m grateful to Jordan for bringing this conversation to his audience and for giving me the chance to represent so many people who have been misunderstood, dismissed, or left without answers. My hope is that this episode helps more people see that chronic pain and chronic symptoms are not life sentences. There is a way forward, and it begins with understanding the body not as broken, but as brilliantly protective. Enjoy! XOOX n.

  • From the Vault: IBS and JournalSpeak Revelations with Lisa Schlosberg, LMSW

    Learn how to JournalSpeak⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak⁠⁠


    Lisa and I sit down for another epic conversation about the magic of this work. We named this episode "What Happens After the After Picture". As a society, we are obsessed with the before and after, the makeover... the result. But what happens when human life doesn't have a result? What happens when the human condition is a lifelong experience? This is the truth for all of us, and Lisa's observations based on her own IBS journey are incredible. Every one of you will walk away with a gem from this convo. Plus, I love talking to my friend. Plus, I can't stop swearing (sorry). Don't worry, you'll just laugh with us. XOXO n.

  • Neuroplastic Pain, TMS, and the Science of Unlearning Chronic Symptoms with Dr. Howard Schubiner

    Learn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ 

    ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak⁠

    Of all the conversations we have on this podcast, this one feels especially important because Dr. Howard Schubiner has been standing at the intersection of medicine, neuroscience, research, and mindbody healing for decades. In this episode, Howard shares the personal and professional path that led him from traditional medicine to Dr. Sarno’s work, and eventually to becoming one of the leading voices in neuroplastic chronic pain and illness. We talk about why pain is never “all in your head,” but is always created by the brain, how predictive processing helps explain why symptoms feel so real and so frightening, and why curiosity is often the first crack in the fear that keeps people stuck.

    Howard also walks us through the growing body of randomized controlled research behind Pain Reprocessing Therapy and Emotion Awareness and Expression Therapy, including why these approaches are showing such meaningful results compared with more traditional coping-based therapies. We talk about chronic pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, pelvic pain, IBS, and the many symptoms that can arise when the nervous system is operating from fear, learned danger, and unprocessed emotional experience. What I love most about Howard’s work is that it is deeply scientific and deeply compassionate at the same time. His message is not that your suffering is imagined. His message is that your suffering is real, your body is not broken, and there may be a way forward that you have not yet been offered. Joins us! XO n.
