31 JACKIE TANN - Who am I and Why Did I Start This Podcast‪?‬ The Bodies Built Better podcast

    • Alternative Health

I decided to start season 2 with my story. Who the heck am I?! (I still ask this question) Why am I doing this and how on earth did I get here. I've pretty much been self employed and run a business my entire career. It's a tough gig... and it got real tough.

Whilst we all like to put on a brave face and weather the storm, the reality is, something's gotta give. And it did for me and I'm slowly learning how to manage. Did I know all along that my actions and behaviours would result in this? I believe so, but I thought I had no choice. To keep going because I thought the consequences of stopping, taking a break, giving myself time, would mean everything would fall apart. Instead I slowly drove myself into the ground. I had to stop, because in the end my body gave me no choice.

The reason I share my experience is two fold;

1. Because this story of working so hard that we forget about ourselves, about our own health and our own needs is all too common, and that you too, need to take stock of your health, wellbeing and self care.

2. I wanted to give you some insight into who I am and where I started. It's a very condensed version of my career but my passion has always been to help others. 

I believe our body's are truly incredible. Our ability to heal, adapt and evolve is extraordinary. 

Whilst I believe this to be true, nor do I want to be insensitive to those dealing with terminal diseases. 

This Podcast is not about false hope but about learning what we are capable of within our control. Nor is this podcast a replacement for medical advice .
