Just like nature flows from one season to the next, our healing journeys invite us into phases of transformation, growth, and finally blossoming into the fullness of who we are. In this soul-nourishing episode, we explore what it means to honor where you are, soften into change, and bloom in your own time. Through laughter and authenticity, Melanie & Gina flow with this relaxed conversation that serves as a gentle reminder that healing doesn’t have a timeline—and every stage is worthy of love.

What if your chronic symptoms weren’t just physical, but a reflection of a nervous system stuck in survival mode?

In this powerful episode, we’re joined by Functional Nutritionist, Life Coach, and Limbic System specialist, Courtney Jacobs, to explore how healing from chronic illness often begins with the nervous system. Courtney shares her journey of overcoming debilitating chronic illness by rewiring her brain, stepping out of fear-based health cycles, and embracing a new story of hope. We unpack the power of mindset, the impact of the limbic system, and why true healing means moving beyond symptom obsession into self-trust and safety. If you’ve ever felt stuck, hopeless, or like your body is broken beyond repair, this episode will reignite your belief in what’s possible.

Episode 6 | New episodes Tuesdays

What if the stories you tell are keeping you stuck? And what if shifting your mindset—consciously and intentionally—could change everything?

In this episode of The Why of It All, Melanie & Gina break down how your thoughts, beliefs, and words shape your reality. If you’re waiting for circumstances to change before you feel better, you’ve got it backwards. It’s time to stop reinforcing the problem and start telling the story the way you want it to be.

Ps - This episode is packed with useful tools, good stories, laughter and… a little bit of accidental slow motion. Yeah, we know we’re a bit laggy on video - we’re still working on the technology! But hey, if our video lags, just consider it built-in dramatic pause for all the mic-drop moments. The audio is smooth, the conversation is fire, and the wisdom is worth the wait—literally. Enjoy!
