The Embodied Healing Framework: 7 Steps to Reclaim Your Energy, Voice & Inner Safety Ep. 80
Manage episode 481703110 series 3345223
These are the emotional, biological, and nervous system tools no one teaches—but they’re the foundation for healing burnout, chronic stress, and even autoimmune symptoms.
What if your symptoms aren’t the problem—but the body’s way of showing you what’s unresolved?
In this episode, Dr. Kirstin walks you through The Embodied Healing Path, her 7-step method to help high-achieving women finally understand what chronic burnout, fatigue, autoimmune issues, and anxiety are really trying to say.
You’ll learn why mindset work alone isn’t enough, why suppressed emotions like anger and guilt don’t just “go away,” and how reclaiming your voice and needs can lead to profound emotional and physical healing. Inspired by the emotional foundations of Gabor Maté’s work—but spoken through a lens that matches what modern, sensitive, high-performing women are living today—this episode is for the woman who’s done everything right… and still doesn’t feel better.
It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what actually heals.
🔑 In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why burnout and chronic illness are often identity-level survival patterns
What “permission to feel” really means—and why it’s a biological necessity, not a mindset trick
How anger, boundaries, and desire are all essential ingredients in your healing
Why autoimmune symptoms and emotional suppression are intimately linked
The 7 steps of The Embodied Healing Path—a framework that shows you where your healing is asking to begin
- How to shift from bypassing into embodied, sustainable capacity
- The one thing you may be avoiding that’s keeping you in burnout (hint: it’s not rest)
💬 Quotes from the episode:
“Your body doesn’t need you to be positive. It needs you to be honest.”
“Anger isn’t a problem—it’s a boundary. And when we suppress it, we suppress our power.”
“You don’t need a perfect plan. You need a safe place inside yourself.”
