    194 Unfawning: The Silent Survival Strategy That’s Shaped Your Life with Dr. Ingrid Clayton

    💥 Ever said yes when you meant no? 💥 Ever lost yourself just to keep the peace? That’s not people-pleasing. That’s FAWNING—and it runs deeper than you think. In this raw and revealing conversation, Dr. Ingrid Clayton peels back the layers of complex trauma, unpacks the hidden cost of fawning, and gets brutally honest about what it takes to stop abandoning yourself, especially during midlife shifts like menopause. This isn’t self-help fluff. This is a nervous system truth. This is unfawning—and it might change everything. 🔑 What You’ll Walk Away With: Why fawning is not your fault (but IS your responsibility to unlearn)The difference between “clean pain” and “dirty pain” (and why one heals, the other festers)How menopause can resurface unresolved traumaWhat happens when you finally stop performing and start reclaiming your needsThe invisible grief of self-abandonment—and the messy power of coming home to yourself👂 Listen if you’ve ever thought: “I don’t even know what I want anymore.” “I’m tired of betraying myself just to be liked.” “This transition in life feels like a breakdown, but maybe it’s a breakthrough.” 📌 Tag us when you’re done listening. Let’s talk about the things we were never taught to name. 📲 Connect with Dr. Ingrid: Website: www.ingridclayton.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ingridclaytonphd/  Sally's Links: [Free Guide] Healing The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtraumatheguide [On Demand Masterclass 2 hours] How To Heal The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity [£17]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtrauma [On Demand Workshop] Redefine Your Values at Menopause and Live Life in Alignment With Them [£27]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/redefine  [Online Practitioners Diploma - Self Paced] Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner [£127]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/meno [One to One] Transformational 30 Day Rewire (Includes RTT) [£447]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-transformational-therapist Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sallygarozzomindmentor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sallygarozzo/ Send me a voice clip via WhatsApp: https://wa.me/message/FTARBMO7CRLEL1 Send me a direct message Support the show

    192 Why You're Still Sick: The Missing Steps in Modern Healing with Christian Elliot

    🔥 This episode will rattle your reality (in the best way). Are you eating clean, doing "all the things," but still feel like crap? Christian Elliot—health renegade and root-cause rebel—joins me to unravel why people don’t heal, even when they’re doing everything right. 🚫 Spoiler: it’s not about another supplement. It’s not about willpower. It’s about the glitches in your system—chemical, emotional, spiritual—and the myths we’ve bought into about healing. We talk: 🌿 The three steps everyone skips (and why skipping them keeps you stuck) 🔥 Why your fancy biohacks might be a waste of money 🧠 The toxic power of unexamined thoughts and trauma loops 🧼 What “detox” actually means (and no, it’s not celery juice) 🛁 How sweating, pooping, crying, and setting boundaries are all forms of purification 🤯 The wild stories of frostbitten toes, uterine surgeries cancelled, and postmenopausal women healing decades of symptoms 👑 Why menopause isn’t a curse—it’s an opportunity to reclaim your power This is a truth-telling, myth-busting, softly rebellious convo for the woman who is ready to stop playing small with her healing. ✨ If you’ve ever thought: “Maybe this is just who I am now…” Think again. Because healing isn’t just possible—it’s inevitable when you stop silencing your body and start working with it. 🧭 Ready to find your next healing breakthrough? 🎧 Listen now and get curious. 📲 Connect with Christian: Website: healingunited.today Get the free guide: How to Reverse Any Chronic Illness in 3 Steps Why You Don’t Heal Miniseries: https://www.healingunited.today/miniseries Deconstructing Conventional Podcast: https://www.healingunited.today/podcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Healing-United/61558869901392/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/truechristianelliot/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healing.united/ Sally's Links: [Free Guide] Healing The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity:  https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtraumatheguide [On Demand Masterclass 2 hours] How To Heal The Trauma Underlying Your Menopause Symptom Severity [£17]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/healingtrauma [On Demand Workshop] Redefine Your Values at Menopause and Live Life in Alignment With Them [£27]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/redefine  [Online Practitioners Diploma - Self Paced] Menopause Wellbeing Practitioner [£127]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/meno [One to One] Transformational 30 Day Rewire (Includes RTT) [£447]: https://www.sallygarozzo.com/rapid-transformational-therapist Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sallygarozzomindmentor LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sallygarozzo/ Send me a direct message Support the show
