So many women on the healing path struggle with all-or-nothing thinking — the belief that they’re either healed or broken, regulated or dysregulated, worthy or not. Sound familiar?

In this short but potent episode, I invite you to make a powerful shift in how you relate to yourself and your healing journey: “both/and” thinking. Especially during Gemini season — a time of duality, curiosity, and new perspectives — this shift can be a gateway to deeper self-compassion, more regulated energy, and sustainable growth.

You’ll hear:

✨ Common ways all-or-nothing thinking shows up in healing and life

✨ A gentle reframe that honors the complexity of your experience

✨ The science behind cognitive flexibility and why it matters for trauma recovery

✨Metaphors to help you feel this shift in your body, not just your mind

Whether you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or like you're constantly “starting over,” this episode will remind you: healing isn’t black or white. You’re allowed to hold complexity. You’re allowed to be in progress and in power. You’re allowed to be both.

Listen now and begin softening into the nuance your nervous system is craving.
