Episode 28 - Unraveling the Identities That Made Me Sick Part I: She Who is Sick
In this powerful and intimate episode of The Remade Life Podcast, I take you behind the scenes of the emotional and somatic work that shaped my healing from autoimmune disease. I open up about the identities I formed in childhood, the protection patterns my nervous system clung to, and the internal environment that made autoimmune disease feel necessary for my survival. I also share the exact spiritual moment that helped me release the identity of “She who is sick” and step into a truer, more empowered version of myself.
(Trigger Warning: Discussion of Suicidal Ideation)
In this episode:
How my early childhood experiences, emotional patterns, and high-achiever conditioning created a foundation for autoimmune disease.
My season of burnout, depression, and suicidal ideation in 2022, and how that breakdown became a doorway into deeper healing.
The identity of “She who is sick”: why I created her, how she protected me, and why she shaped so much of my story.
The moment of clarity on my deck when I asked God for guidance, heard the message I needed, and began releasing that identity.
How shifting my narrative, reconnecting with my body, and honoring my emotional truth helped me transform my relationship with autoimmune disease.
This is one of the most honest and transformative stories I’ve ever shared, so join me for the full episode and see if it helps you understand your own symptoms, body, and healing in a brand-new way.
