She saw the most eminent experts in the field of chronic pelvic pain in Western Medicine. And nothing worked.
This week, my client Jessica shared her story.
After years of chronic pelvic pain, countless medical appointments, pelvic floor physical therapy, and being told to stop exercising, Jessica felt like she'd reached the end of the road. She'd exhausted every option she knew, yet her symptoms remained unchanged and her life shrank smaller and smaller.
Then she discovered a mind-body approach to healing.
In this deeply honest conversation, Jessica shares what it was like to move from skepticism to hope, how she rebuilt trust in her body, and the lessons she wishes she'd known years earlier.
We talk about why pain isn't always a sign of damage (even if you get pain with specific movement), how fear of pain can keep the nervous system stuck in protection, and what actually helped her return to the movement, travel, and life she thought she'd lost forever.
If you've been wondering whether healing is still possible for you, or you've caught yourself thinking, "Maybe this is just my forever," my hope is this episode will change that.
In this episode, we discuss:
Jessica's journey through years of chronic pelvic pain and the medical system
Why she was initially skeptical of a mind-body approach
How understanding the nervous system changed everything
The fear of returning to exercise and rebuilding trust in movement
The role of catastrophizing in keeping pain cycles alive
Why continuing to live your life is part of the healing process
Learning to trust yourself as part of the healing process.
Why occasional symptoms no longer scare her
Why you probably haven't tried everything yet
How her healing journey led her to the work she now does
