“I’m Doing Everything Right… So Why Do I Still Feel Awful?” Ep 81
Manage episode 483087819 series 3345223
If you’ve done the gut protocols, labs, and diets—but still feel awful—this is for you.
In this episode, I reflect on a powerful post by Peta Kelly and dive deep into a conversation I’ve had with many clients (and myself): When did wellness become fear-based? And why do we feel like we have to control everything just to feel “somewhat okay”?
I share my own journey—from eliminating toxins, gut protocols, and strict routines… to realizing that healing didn’t fully land until I addressed the deeper layers: identity, emotions, trauma, subconscious beliefs, and nervous system safety.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right—the labs, the diets, the supplements—but still feel off, this episode will help you zoom out and breathe again. Your body doesn’t need perfection. It needs safety.
Whether you're navigating hormone imbalances, endometriosis, migraines, leaky gut, or even autoimmune disease, this episode will help you reconnect with the part of healing that most protocols miss.
We cover:
How the health journey often begins in restriction—and why that’s okay
What creates true burnout in healing (hint: it’s not just overdoing it)
Why regulating your internal world creates more capacity in your external one
The role of subconscious beliefs and childhood patterns in chronic symptoms
How endometriosis and hormone issues taught me about trust, not just nutrition
The energetic side of healing (chakras, emotions, and how symptoms store in the body)
Why sometimes rest doesn’t feel safe—and how to create your own internal retreat
