For the moments when healing feels heavy and presence is the only way through.

In this raw and reflective episode, I explore a question many of us ask, but few of us say out loud:

What’s the point of healing if there’s still pain?

Through personal story, breath, and reflection, I offer a grounded perspective on what it really means to heal, not to perfect yourself, not to escape discomfort, but to return to presence, even when life hurts.

We’ll explore:

• The difference between inherited pain and personal pain
• How our survival strategies become identities
• Why true healing isn’t about fixing. It’s about remembering
• And what the shedding of a snake’s skin teaches us about outgrowing what once kept us safe

If you’ve ever found yourself caught between doing the work and wondering why it still hurts, this episode is for you.

Take a breath.
Set your space.
And let’s return… together.
