"Becoming the person you aspire to be requires that you stop being that old self".

For over a decade, I lived as “the sick person.”
Every day was a battle — desperately trying to heal, terrified of what would happen if I couldn’t.

I did everything right.
The perfect diet. The perfect supplements.
Time in nature. Gentle exercise. Meditation. Grounding.
Weekly massage, chiropractic, acupuncture.
I read all the books, listened to all the experts, and obsessed over every tiny thing that might help — or hurt — my healing.

But no matter how hard I tried… I wasn’t healing.

Why? Because my story was wrong.

I lived every day trying to heal — but underneath it all, fear was running the show.  My story was sending chronic danger signals to my nervous system; My body thought I was under threat… and it responded the only way it knew how — with fight or flight.

The problem?
Fight or flight isn’t meant to be a permanent state. It’s a short-term survival response.
But when it becomes chronic, it drains your body.
It burns through the minerals your cells, tissues, and organs need to function.

Trying to heal in that state is like trying to fill a bathtub without plugging the drain.
No matter how much water you pour in — it will never stay full.

For over a decade, my story hijacked my nervous system and drained my minerals.
No amount of pills, exercise, or diet could fix that.

Don’t get me wrong — the right strategy matters. But the most powerful first step?
Choosing a story that aligns with the outcome you actually desire.

When your story signals safety — not fear — you plug the drain so the bathtub can finally fill.
That’s when true healing begins.
