Healing isn't a straight path, and trying to force it into one only adds more pain.
In this episode, I get real about the truth behind healing. It's messy, it loops, and sometimes, it feels like you're going backward before you leap forward.
I talk about why symptoms are actually signals, not setbacks, and how perfectionism can quietly sabotage your progress. You'll hear how to stop judging your journey, listen to your body's messages, and build lasting momentum by celebrating the tiniest shifts.
I also share ways to break that cycle, stay grounded through the lows, and trust your progress even when it doesn't feel like progress.
Let's honor your progress together on the Good Gut Feeling Podcast: Healing Isn't Linear: How to Embrace Progress Over Perfection.
