If you’ve ever dealt with chronic pain or injuries, you know the journey to healing doesn’t always feel linear.

Some days, it’s one step forward… and others feel like you’ve taken four steps back.

But what if the marker of progress isn’t pain?

What if progress looks more like rebuilding trust in your body...

…creating a sense of safety in how you move...

…and learning how to listen without fear or frustration?

In this episode, I’m joined by chronic pain specialist and physical therapist Dr. Tawny Kross - and she shares why pain isn’t always a sign of damage and why your body and brain need safety to heal.

Whether you’re deep in your healing journey or just trying to make sense of how your body feels, I know you’re going to love this one.

You’ll learn:

  • Why pain does not always mean something is broken
  • How to build nervous system resilience and capacity to reduce pain
  • Why progress isn’t about less pain
  • How to proceed with your movement when you’re in a flare-up
