Episode Synopsis

What happens when the journey of healing becomes another mask to wear?In this raw and reflective episode, I open up about my own experience navigating the pressure to do wellness right — from spending money I didn’t have to chasing every tool, trick, and supplement in hopes of finally “fixing” myself.This isn’t a call-out. It’s a call inward — back to truth, back to simplicity, and back to your own body.I talk about:How perfectionism sneaks into the spiritual and wellness spaceWhy healing doesn’t need to be expensive, aesthetic, or performativeMy castor oil pack mishap (yes, really)What it actually means to heal on your own termsLearning to stop performing and just… be humanThis episode is for anyone who’s felt like they’re not doing healing “right” or wondered if they’re falling behind. Spoiler: you’re not. You’re healing in your own time, and that’s more than enough.Take this with you: Less noise. More truth.You don’t have to earn your healing — just feel it, live it, and trust it.→ Connect with me on Instagram: @brooklincbuchanan
