226. everything I learned through a year of healing from chronic illness, grief & hard times ❤️‍🩹

Hi my loves 🦋 In today's episode I’m reflecting on the year that changed me the most — the year I was navigating chronic illness, grief, mental exhaustion, and the slow process of rebuilding myself. In this episode, I share the five lessons that truly carried me: surrender, self-compassion, releasing perfectionism, letting go of comparison, and finding faith again.If you’re moving through illness, depression, grief, or any hard season, I hope this brings softness to your day and reminds you that you’re not behind, you’re not doing it wrong, and you’re already healing more than you think. Next week, we’ll go deeper into everything I’ve learned specifically about grief.My substack https://substack.com/@eliciagoguen?r=1sstx1&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=profileSign up for my email list! https://theglowupsecrets.com/ My digital journal guides are on SALE! https://beacons.ai/theglowupsecretsWork with me 1:1 https://shop.beacons.ai/theglowupsecrets/504d27dc-4092-4216-bb7a-3ca273e7d082My book "the ultimate glow up guide" is available NOW 💗 get it at your local bookstores & online at places like amazon! https://amzn.to/3M4SfGAMy book recommendations can be found here https://amzn.to/4hfP6Sb Open app (30 days free) https://go.o-p-e-n.com/ELICIA3020 free credits for classpass! https://classpass.com/refer/MMU78TBR30 My main channel  @eliciagoguen All my home, wellness, clothes, self-care faves can be found here https://www.shopltk.com/explore/eliciagoguen/productsetsThe Glow Up Secrets podcast channel https://www.youtube.com/@theglowupsecretspodcastMy audio podcast, instagram, tiktok & pinterest can all be found here: https://eliciagoguen.komi.ioTimestamps:00:00 my history with chronic illness, IBD, grief05:27 surrender, non-urgency on your healing journey & the mind body connection10:39 embark on a healing journey & what true healing looks like16:19 dropping self blame, & embracing self compassion18:18 dropping comparison20:54 having faith#healingjourney #chronicillness #chronicpain #mindbodyconnection #ibd #podcastsforwomen #podcast #griefBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-glow-up-secrets--5693167/support.
