Have you ever wondered why some high achievers end up facing mysterious chronic illnesses, autoimmune issues, or extreme burnout—despite “having it all together”?

In this episode of The Pauline Chilton Show, Harvard-educated wellness coach, licensed attorney, and mental health professional Kelly Greene shares her powerful journey from the height of legal career success… to facing life changes that forced her to completely rethink her path.

Kelly’s groundbreaking 5H Framework — Healthy Head, Heart, Hands, Human Connection, and Holy Connection — blends neuroscience, psychology, and holistic wellness to help high performers move beyond surface symptom management and achieve true, root-level healing.

You’ll learn:

• The Skin-Deep Resilience trap that keeps high achievers sick
• Why early life trauma impacts the body—even without anxiety or depression
• How to break free from the “toxic grit” cycle and rebuild your health
• Practical steps to create holistic resilience that lasts a lifetime

If you’ve ever felt like your success is costing you your health—this is your wake-up call.
