It’s funny how quickly getting sick can change your plans.

One minute your calendar is full, people are counting on you, and everything is moving forward. The next, your body has other ideas.

In this episode, Christie shares a recent experience with food poisoning that forced her to cancel a live workshop she’d been looking forward to teaching. While the sickness passed, what surprised her most wasn’t what happened physically—it was what didn’t happen mentally.

No guilt.

No replaying the decision.

No trying to prove she could push through.

Instead, the experience became a reminder that listening to your body is an act of self-respect, not weakness.

If you’ve ever struggled to rest when you’re sick, felt guilty canceling plans, or believed you had to “push through” no matter what, this conversation offers a different perspective. Christie explores how taking care of your emotional health during illness can be just as important as taking care of your physical health.

Because sometimes the healthiest thing you can do isn’t doing more.

It’s giving yourself permission to stop.
