Have you ever wondered if healing from chronic illnesses AND eating intuitively could co-exist? It might come as a surprise, but they actually can! In this conversation with our guest, we dig through the common misconceptions about healing & being healthy. Truth is, you can prioritize taking care of your health, chronic illness, and your relationship with food all at the same time – without the expense of the other.

Grace Secker, the founder of Elevate Therapy and Wellness, is a holistic licensed psychotherapist, certified yoga therapist, nervous system & chronic pain coach. Her Mind-Body Healing Method combines 10+ years of professional experience with decades of personal mental, physical, and spiritual healing to support people with chronic pain, fatigue, and disordered eating.

In this episode, we chat about:

What ‘chronic illness’ encompasses
How you can do more than just manage symptoms
The problem with “food is medicine”
The role our nervous system plays in our health
Overwhelm on a healing journey
How clean eating can actually make you more sick
The all-systems approach to health & wellness
