Hi friends, welcome back to The Whole Woman Podcast! Today it’s just me—Kim—while Rachel rests and focuses on her health. (Send her your love and prayers!) I thought this would be the perfect time to dive into something close to my heart: learning to listen to your body and building what I call your Owner’s Manual.

Our bodies are always talking to us—through energy levels, sleep patterns, digestion, emotions, and even those little aches we tend to ignore. The real question is: are we listening?

In this episode, I’ll share:
~ Why paying attention to your body’s signals matters
~ How journaling can help you connect the dots
~ Simple ways to start tracking your daily health patterns
~ How to become your own best advocate in the doctor’s office

Your Owner’s Manual doesn’t have to be complicated—it’s simply a way to track sleep, food, energy, stress, mood, and even moments of gratitude. Over time, it becomes a map to better health, stronger self-advocacy, and deeper self-awareness.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by not having answers when your doctor asks, “How long has this been going on?”—this episode is for you.
