This is a true gem for anyone who has had symptoms for a long time and fears that recovery is out of reach. Ellie's PPPD symptoms began when she was just 14 years old, and over the next 20 years, they progressively worsened. At her worst, she was completely debilitated, experiencing a wide range of symptoms, including unsteady ground sensation, vertigo, the "Alice in Wonderland" feeling, nausea, brain fog, panic and anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and more.

Listen as Ellie shares her struggle with an eating disorder and how it connected to PPPD. We also discuss her experiences with pregnancy and motherhood. Hear what ultimately helped Ellie feel better and why stepping out of "fixing mode"—learning to accept discomfort and fully experiencing emotions—can be so important. Today, Ellie is fully recovered, proving that complete healing is possible, no matter how many years you've had symptoms.

Meet Alex, a musician whose life took an unexpected turn during a vacation. After noticing a pop in his ear, the ground beneath him began to feel like an ocean, and an unrelenting sense of movement set in. Diagnosed with Mal de Débarquement Syndrome (MdDS), Alex faced severe, constant symptoms that left him searching for answers. He sought help from doctors, ENTs, neurologists, and more, but lasting relief remained elusive.

Determined to find a way forward, Alex explored a wide range of treatments—including Botox, TMS, NUCCA chiropractic care, and others. While some provided temporary relief, none really gave him full relief from symptoms. In this conversation, Alex shares his journey through the setback, the emotional work he did in EMDR and IFS therapy, and the techniques that ultimately helped him recover.

Listen as Alex reflects on the roots of his inner critic, how Buddhism played a role in his recovery, and the key messages that gave him hope. Today, he is virtually symptom-free and preparing to release a collection of songs inspired by his healing journey. An inspiring story of resilience, self-discovery, and hope.

Today, we have an insightful conversation with Melissa. Melissa experienced a physical condition (neuritis/unilateral weakness) that caused a permanent change. Life stress suddenly triggered a long list of debilitating symptoms that persisted 24/7 for five months: dizziness, sensitivity to light, sound, and smell, overwhelm, hypervigilance, a "drunk" feeling, trampoline walking, a constant sense of movement, anxiety/fear, insomnia, tremors, screen sensitivity, brain fog, vision issues, and more.

Hear about her experiences with doctors and her diagnoses of neuritis and PPPD. Learn what finally helped her feel better after five months of constant symptoms. How she found relief by getting moving again, befriending her symptoms, and becoming the person she needed for herself. We also hear about the emotional work she did with our coach, Pippa Braund MSc, and some important messages about dips and the fact that you don't need to change your personality. Today, Melissa is fully recovered.

Join us for an insightful interview with Daniel Erichsen, a former sleep physician turned sleep coach. Together, we dive into the topic of insomnia and its connection to chronic dizziness and other challenges related to nervous system sensitivity. Discover how to break free from the fear loop and understand why excessive effort in your sleep routine can backfire. We explore the limitations of traditional CBT approaches and why they may not always be effective.

This interview offers practical tools and valuable reassurance for anyone struggling with sleep during their recovery. You'll see how Daniel's methods closely align with those of Dr. Yonit, creating a shared foundation of understanding and support. Most importantly, the discussion focuses on easing the fear and danger signals tied to poor sleep and being awake at night. As Daniel points out, there is no solid evidence that insomnia causes any serious long-term health consequences.
