482 | Courtney Runyon | When Empathy Makes You Sick: Autoimmunity, Boundaries, and Healing (Part 2)
Manage episode 498565610 series 2467727
In Part 2 of our conversation with Courtney Runyon, we explore how over-giving, emotional suppression, and relational stress contributed to a life-altering autoimmune health crisis—and how, just days after ending a relationship defined by those patterns, her body began to heal. Courtney shares how empathy, when unboundaried, can drive inflammation—and how reclaiming agency over your energy can shift everything. We talk about the science of stress and the nervous system, the emotional roots of chronic illness, and how tools like psychedelics supported her recovery. This is a conversation about what happens when your body says what you won't—and how healing begins the moment you start to listen.
