Hi! I’m Rachel, and for years, chronic illnesses like Ehlers Danlos, IBS, foot pain, TMJ, chronic fatigue, hypothyroid, hormonal issues, chronic constipation, and fibromyalgia dimmed my light.

I spent 20 years searching for a cure, trying every expensive and harmful dead end, only to find my health progressively worsening. At times I felt like I wasn’t really living, but surviving only to work. Until the illness progressed and I had to give up the career I spent 16 years building.

During my journey, there were times when I was housebound. As the years passed I found myself feeling angry, afraid, alone, and full of self-pity, grieving the loss of my life, terrified by my symptoms and feeling guilty for what I put my partner through. Overtime, my emotions overwhelmed me and I stopped seeing a way forward. I didn’t know who I was anymore.

But a family death was the kick in the pants I needed to start working my way out of the mess I was in. I realised it was time to stop looking for other people to heal me. I needed to own the healing process myself, and that decision led me on a path of discovery where I came to understand that my emotional well-being had a significant impact on my physical health.

Instead of more panicked online searches, I took things back to basics. I focused on how I felt, my mindset, and my life experiences and how those had taken their toll on my health. I worked with people who could help me heal my emotions, using tools like EFT, and managed my emotional stress. As a result, my health improved.

The impact on my life from what I learned was so big that I knew I had to share it with others. I want to inspire and support you to become empowered in your own recovery journey and help you unburden from the emotional shackles keeping you stuck.
