When clients come to work with me, one of the most common stories I hear is:

"I've already spent THOUSANDS of dollars healing."

This story often comes with a mix of bitterness, grief, and discouragement, but the most dangerous emotion it can come with is distrust.

While other emotions like bitterness and grief can be painful or heavy to bear, distrust is one of the most dangerous emotions I see potential clients have because it breaks their ability to rely on others. Relying on others is something we all need to heal, because whether it's a matter of paying an expert to help us do something or simply trusting a friend or family member to care about us and bear our burdens with us, distrust sows the seed of unwillingness to move forward and get what we actually need to heal - others.

That's why, on today's episode, I'm digging into the topic of how to handle the distrust that comes along when multiple providers or "solutions" you've paid time, money, and effort on end up in disappointment and pain.

On this episode, I'll be sharing parts of my own personal story with distrust and discouragement in my health along with quotes from a book I've been digging into on trust, and stories from the lives of my clients.

Whether you're trying to heal your gut, hormones, thyroid, brain, or any other set of symptoms or diagnoses - I hope this episode encourages you and gives you brain something new to chew on as you move forward in healing.
