My friends, I'm excited to share a new Group Coaching Course starting in January 2023 called Women and Pain. Read more here.

In this episode we chat about the mind-body connection, women's health, chronic pain, the menstrual cycle, hormones, and the nervous system. Join us for this chat to support you on your healing journey.

We chatted about:


  • The nervous system and chronic pain

  • Endometriosis, period pain, PMDD, PMS

  • Anxiety and depression

  • Suppressed emotions

  • Mood swings

  • Anger

  • The mind-body connection

  • Neural pathways and pain science

  • Fear and the fight/flight reponse

  • Building safety into the nervous system

  • Our relationship with ourselves

  • Shame about being a woman




The different ways the fight/flight response shows up:


  • Worry about the past or future

  • Catastrophising

  • Hyper-vigilance

  • Over educating or intellectualising

  • Self protection

  • Beliefs that you are doing things wrong

  • Self blame

  • Strict routines

  • Restrtictive diets

  • Lack of hope, belief, or trust

  • Obsessive thinking, being preoccupied

  • Identifying with pain and being a sick person

  • Always looking up Dr. Google
