150 - From Self-Blame to Self-Discovery

Long Covid Podcast

Could recognizing stress, perfectionism, and a relentless work ethic have unknowingly contributed to my journey with Long Covid? This episode, inspired by a listener's question, takes you through my personal exploration of self-blame and recovery, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging lifestyle factors that play into our health. We'll uncover the value of therapy in recognizing these patterns and how Maya Angelou's wisdom guided me: "Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better." By understanding and unlearning pre-illness habits, we open up pathways to resilience and growth.
Join us in celebrating the transformative power of self-compassion and authenticity as we reach our 150th episode milestone. We reflect on the essence of gratitude and its role in focusing on what truly matters—health, joy, and connection. Inspired by the Taoist concept of the first and second arrow, we explore our reactions to life's challenges and how they shape our journey. As we celebrate this milestone, I express my gratitude for your continued support and share a peek into my holiday plans. Let's embrace the journey of unbecoming what isn't truly us and allowing our authentic selves to shine.
