Joyful Autoimmune Podcast

Today I want to talk about what I believe is another of the most important parts of any health and wellness journey…and that is becoming the expert of your own journey or your own story. YOU are the expert of your body and your story. There is no shortage of information out there especially in the health and wellness world, and while yes, there is a period of learning and discovery we go through after diagnosis, more often than not, many do not necessarily struggle with not enough information, many struggle with being overwhelmed with information, differing opinions of health experts, not knowing where to start, and so on. They are looking outward for answers instead of realizing the power of turning inward. Let's dive in!   Do you have a question you'd like me to answer in an upcoming podcast episode? Submit it here.

I took last week off sharing new podcast episodes because I actually spent 5 days in Costa Rica at a yoga retreat. It was my first time in Costa Rica, I’ve wanted to go to Costa Rica for years,  and it was a trip I’d been planning for many, many months. I’ve been home for a week now after the trip, but I felt it was important to take the time to soak it all in and process the experience.  In this episode, I'm sharing my experience as well as an invitation to you to keep dreaming and visioning and why!

Today I want to talk about an important part of health and wellness that most people may not even think about or consider when starting or restarting or considering their health journey…and that is the power of our thoughts, and in particular the way that negative thoughts may directly impact our ability to successfully support our health, nourish our body and soul, and heal. The first thing I want you to know is if you’re ever struggled with or currently struggle with negative thought patterns, you are not alone. It is VERY common. I’ve had the beautiful opportunity to witness clients and students break free of negative thought patterns that have held them back in successful healthy behavior change and instead cultivate supportive thought patterns that have been absolute game changers in their health and wellness journeys. And I’ve experienced it too...let's dive into today's episode!   Do you have a question you'd like me to answer in an upcoming podcast episode? Submit it here.

Today I have something so special for you and am going to be sharing a health and wellness story with you that is so near and dear to my heart, as well as incredibly inspiring! I haven’t shared this publicly yet, but with Mothers Day coming up here in the US, my mama has been on my mind a lot lately. She’s been on an incredible health journey of her own over the past years and particularly the past six months as she’s dramatically changed her life and regained her health. It’s been one of the biggest honors of my life to walk with her and support her through her health journey, particularly these past 6 months. As much as she is grateful for my help and support, I am so inspired by her strength, determination, resilience and the example she has set and continues to set for me and for her family.  A couple of days ago, I felt so deep down how inspiring her story will be for you, and I felt inspired to ask her if it was okay if I shared her story in her own words and asked her a few questions. She said yes, and so in today’s episode, I will be sharing my mama’s health story as well as answers to a few questions I asked her, then I’ll close with a few of my own thoughts. I hope you enjoy!
