Ep 127 How Feeling Supported, Seen, Heard and Believed is Necessary for Healing with Amy Stein
Manage episode 490892151 series 3593343
In this powerful episode of Heal Yourself with Sarah Dawkins, I sit down with Amy Stein, a chronic illness thriver and holistic guide, who shares her deeply personal 15-year healing journey. Amy opens up about the difference between healing and curing and why so many women with chronic pain and invisible illnesses are misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all, by the conventional medical system.
We talk about Amy’s background as a medical researcher and how working with chronic pain patients ironically mirrored her own deteriorating health. She discusses being dismissed by doctors, the emotional toll of feeling unseen and unheard and how she finally reclaimed her health by tuning into her body’s wisdom and embracing natural healing methods.
You’ll hear how Amy navigated multiple misdiagnoses, Lyme disease, mold exposure, food sensitivities and systemic inflammation, ultimately discovering that the body can either fight or heal but not both at the same time.
If you’ve ever felt gaslit by the medical system or unsure where to turn next, this episode will empower you to trust yourself, listen to your body and explore holistic paths to healing.

Why “healing” is different from “curing”
The hidden impact of misdiagnosis and medical gaslighting
How the body communicates through symptoms and sensations
