    Ep 48 Heal Your Pain, Heal Your Business, Design Your Life with Whitney Rydman

    Welcome back, dear listener. In today’s episode, I got to chat with someone I’ve admired from afar for a long time, Whitney Rydman.   I first came across Whitney some years ago, when I was early in my recovery from migraine and I was binging Nicole Sachs’s podcast, which is called The Cure for Chronic Pain. Whitney was a guest who came on the podcast to talk about her own personal recovery from pelvic pain. She had such an engaging and inspiring voice that I wanted to know more, so I followed her on Instagram, as one does. And I eventually learned that Whitney is not only an incredible person who talks about her own healing in a relatable and uplifting way, she’s also the amazing graphic designer behind the websites and social media branding of many well-known names in the chronic pain recovery world, including Nicole Sachs, Alan Gordon, the Curable app and more.   But she didn’t start out in the mind-body world. Whitney studied graphic design at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco and shortly after college, she was recruited as the lead designer for Jamba Juice, applying her hand-lettering and illustration skills as part of her design work for all their in-store collateral. Other brands she's worked on include Pottery Barn, West Elm, and Williamns-Sonoma. But after working as a corporate designer in the retail space for over 15 years, she reached a point of burnout and her body let her know. She discovered what she was experiencing was TMS — or mind-body chronic symptoms — and she was amazed at the results of using neuroplasticity in her recovery. Since then, she became passionate about using her design experience to service experts in the mind body space.   Whitney also winds up coaching her design clients on what has become my favorite topic lately: How the entrepreneurship journey totally mirrors the mind-body healing journey, with all of its ups and downs, leaps forward and setbacks, and I can’t wait to share with you our conversation about it!    You can find Whitney at: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.design.remedy/ Website: https://thedesignremedy.com/   And you can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ Journaling Course: www.annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support

    Ep 47 Sex and the Nervous System with Vanessa Blackstone

    Welcome back, dear listener. In today’s episode, I got to chat about the intersection between nervous system regulation and sex with my wonderful guest Vanessa Blackstone.   Vanessa is a therapist, a citizen of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, and she is the Executive Director of the Pain Psychology Center as well as a co-author of The Pain Reprocessing Therapy Workbook, which is available for pre-order now and comes out on November 1st, so I definitely recommend you grab a copy.   Vanessa earned her M.S. in Social Work from the University of Southern California and, following her own personal recovery from chronic pain, Vanessa began her career as a therapist in 2018. In addition to chronic pain treatment, she specializes in sex therapy, substance use and recovery, and mindfulness based relapse prevention, and she also works on film sets as an On-set Wellness Professional.   Outside of her professional roles, Vanessa is a former foster youth who advocates for current and former foster youth by sharing her personal experiences in public speaking events.   I have wanted to meet Vanessa for a while, but I was especially grateful to have a conversation with her about sex. Even in the year 2024, sex is STILL a taboo topic and it’s hard to find useful information that centers our human experience around sex, which includes our emotions, our beliefs, and our nervous systems as well as our physical sensations. Sex is an area where many folks with chronic pain struggle and feel isolated in that struggle. So, I am honored to share this conversation with Vanessa, who brings such compassion and humanity to the subject of sex.   You can find Vanessa at: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/that.therapist Book: https://www.newharbinger.com/9781648483769/the-pain-reprocessing-therapy-workbook/ The Pain Psychology Center: https://www.painpsychologycenter.com/our-team/   And you can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ Journaling Course: www.annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support

    Ep 46 IFS for Insomnia with Katie LaCelle

    Welcome back, dear listener. In today’s episode, I got to have a very interesting conversation with my colleague Katie LaCelle. We talked about using Internal Family Systems Therapy to recover from insomnia, we talked about detoxing from early childhood survival habits of urgency and overwork, we talked about so many nuances of the mind-body process that I’m almost sure you’ll see yourself in at least some part of our chat.   Katie is a somatic IFS practitioner & leadership coach. She is passionate about helping her clients uncover their own internal wise leaders and reconnect with their deepest embodied intuition. IFS, or internal family systems, is a trauma-informed modality that can help you get present, rewire your brain, and regulate your nervous system. Katie regularly assists the IFS Institute in training therapists and practitioners, and she is currently pursuing her somatic experiencing practitioner certification. Fun fact: Katie has worked part time in the circus for 8 years, coaching and performing on the flying trapeze. I hope that’s got you curious. Now, here’s our conversation.   You can find Katie at: Website: https://www.cressanallc.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cressanallc/   And you can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ Journaling Course: www.annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support

    Ep 45 Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and Neuroplastic Pain Recovery with Petra Schmider

    Welcome back, dear listener. In today's episode, I got to chat with another dear friend and colleague, Petra Schmider. And I'm so excited to have Petra on the podcast to talk about a condition that is getting a lot more attention lately, but that is also surrounded by a lot of confusion and conflicting information. Petra has a deep body of knowledge and understanding about Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, or EDS, because she herself was diagnosed with EDS. She's also a mind-body practitioner who has used mind-body techniques to recover from debilitating pain associated with EDS. And she's going to take us deeply into the complexities of how a genetic and incurable condition like EDS can be intertwined with neuroplastic pain, which very much can be reduced or even eliminated through the use of mind-body techniques. It's a fascinating conversation that can be applied to many other conditions as well, not just EDS, and I can't wait for you to hear this.

    Ep 44 Pain Is the Alarm on Your Body’s Home Security System

    Welcome back dear listeners. Today, I have no guest because I’m going to share another talk that I gave recently. Using my voice is something that I’ve discovered I love to do. And something I’m particularly passionate about is breaking down the concepts of chronic pain recovery into very simple language. There are lots of different ways to communicate these concepts, and there are many very eloquent practitioners and researchers out there who use neuroscience terminology, facts and figures from research studies, and other lofty sounding language to communicate these ideas. And that is fantastic! That kind of language really speaks to people in a particular way and it serves a specific purpose in our society. And, my contribution to this conversation about mind-body healing comes in a very different type of language from that. Because my personal mission is really about encouraging people, like you, the listener, to develop trust in your own inner wisdom and your own innate understanding of your own lived experience.   And to encourage that, I make it a point whenever I can to use everyday language. And instead of using a lot of scientific jargon — not that it doesn’t have its place — I prefer to use everyday metaphors to help you understand that, just by being alive, you already have all the tools you need to understand what’s going on in your mind and body. It’s really just about tuning in and paying attention, and leaning into what you already know about life based on other experiences that we can use as metaphors. That’s what I do in all of my courses and programs, and it’s why so many students who have taken my course, Writing to Release Chronic Pain, have told me that they finally understand this work, because I’ve broken it down so simply. I think it’s also why members of my groups feel so empowered to speak their own truth, tell their own story and develop to their own unique path to healing that works for them! If that’s something that’s important to you, I welcome you to join us for the biweekly meetings of my membership group, where we get together to share, support each other, and continue to develop that sense of self-trust and confidence in our journeys. You can join by going to my website annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease where you can enroll in that course, and included in your enrollment is a two-month pass to my group coaching membership and the option to stay on and become an ongoing member. Again, the URL to enroll is annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease   And now, I hope you’ll enjoy this talk in which I’ll break down the process of chronic pain recovery into three simple concepts. Fair warning, this talk does include some mild bathroom humor.   You can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support

    Ep 43 Unlocking Pain through Internal Family Systems, with Phil de la Haye

    Welcome back, dear listener. In today’s episode, I got to chat with a dear friend and colleague, Phil de la Haye.   Phil is an Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner and mind-body coach based near Bristol in the UK. He has his own history of chronic pain, so he has a personal interest in this work and a great passion for supporting other people who are in recovery from chronic symptoms.    I personally find the IFS framework to be incredibly helpful with chronic symptom recovery and Phil did an amazing job of explaining that framework in our conversation, so I know you’ll get a lot out of this episode.   Phil and I met about three years ago through some Facebook group I think — probably a group for mind-body practitioners, but I was already familiar with Phil’s story after hearing him interviewed on a podcast called The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs. Anyway, somehow, we connected, and we’ve been meeting on Zoom together about once a month off and on.   In theory we meet to talk about client work and offer each other support with that. But quite often we wind up sharing our own personal experiences, how stress shows up in our bodies as we continue to be human beings, and just to generally connect. And I’m sharing this because developing friendships and connections with other people who “get it” has been such an important and enjoyable part of my own recovery from chronic pain — and my development as a person.   It's a big part of the reason that I created my monthly membership group, the Mind-Body Support Circle. We meet up twice a month on Zoom to talk about chronic symptom recovery, to journal together, and most importantly to share honestly and vulnerably with each other and give and receive support! It’s such a simple, beautiful thing. I remember one group member recently saying, “we are changing the world by doing this together.” And I totally agree with that.   If you would like to join us, you can do so by signing up for my signature journaling course, Writing to Release Chronic Pain. When you sign up, you’ll be invited to two months of complementary membership in the Support Circle so that you can experience it and see if it’s for you. I’d love to get to know you there. To learn more, visit my website, annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease   And now, without further ado, please enjoy this conversation with Phil de la Haye.   You can find Phil at: Website: www.phildelahaye.com IG: https://www.instagram.com/phildelahayeifs/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/phildelahayeifs FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/901827657282916   And you can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ Journaling Course: www.annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support

    Ep 42 An Intimate Story About My Healing, Told on Stage

    Welcome back, dear listener. Today’s episode is a little bit different from what I usually do on this podcast. Because earlier this year, I did something quite a bit outside my comfort zone, and now I want to share it with you. I’ll cut to the chase, the thing I did was I got on stage and told a very intimate and personal story about my own healing. It was an empowering experience, and I know that my story touched people and helped people, as I hope it will do for you too. Now, you might be wondering, how on earth did I get up the courage to step on stage and tell this story out loud, with microphone, like, how did I get to this point? And here’s what I’ll share with you. Now first off, I’m not suggesting that everyone needs to get up on stage and tell their story as part of your healing. I mean that might just not be your thing. But we all have something that we’re yearning to do, some way that we are wanting to take our place in the world, some way that we’re wanting to affirm being alive, and it’s probably something that both calls to us and scares us a little. And for me, that was the case with speaking on stage. It was calling to me — and it also scared the crap out of me. And to make a long story short, the way that I gradually moved through my fear to follow my calling was by taking small steps in safe spaces with support that I trusted. I worked with a wonderful speaking coach named Chantelle Adams, shout out to Chantelle. And I practiced in a small group of the most supportive, kind and inspiring peers who were part of a coaching cohort.   I am such a strong believer in group coaching, because it has helped me overcome so many different fears, and it has helped me to step forward into my passions in life in so many different ways.   And that’s also the reason why, this year, I have launched my own group coaching program to support people — perhaps like you — to heal from chronic pain so you can pursue your own passion. My group meets twice per month on Zoom and it is just the most wonderfully supportive, loving, kind, wise group of people. We come together, we talk about different topics in chronic pain recovery. We share struggles and triumphs. And we support each other. And if this sounds like something you’d like to experience, I would love to have you join us. And you can do that now, simply by enrolling in my signature journaling course, Writing to Release Chronic Pain, which you’ll find on my website, www.annaholtzman.com/writingtorelease . And when you enroll in the course, you’ll be invited to join us for two months of group coaching to test it out, and see if you’d like to become an ongoing monthly member. I would love to see you there, and if you have questions about the program, you can email me at anna@annaholtzman.com And with that, I’m now gonna to share with you an intimate story about my healing, that I told on stage.   You can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support

    Ep 41 Intuitive Healing From Chronic Fatigue, POTS, Lyme Disease, Long COVID and More with Rebecca Tolin

    Welcome back, dear listeners. In this episode, it was so fun to meet a kindred spirit who, like me, used to work in television and is now a mind-body practitioner. And also like me, this guest is a big proponent of self-compassion and self-trust.   Rebecca Tolin is a mind-body coach, educator and writer who comes to this field through a 13-year saga with chronic fatigue syndrome. After seeing 50 practitioners, Rebecca finally recovered through the mind-body model. This experience was so profound that she’s devoted her work to helping people with chronic fatigue, long COVID and other neuroplastic symptoms. Rebecca is the creator of the Be Your Own Medicine course, which blends mind-body education with somatic meditation, emotional awareness, exposure therapy and nervous system regulation. She spreads science and story through her blog and YouTube channel. And prior to this career, Rebecca worked as a broadcast journalist for ABC, NBC and PBS affiliates.  Although this was the first time that Rebecca and I ever spoke, I felt like we had known each other for years, and I think you’ll enjoy the energy of that connection while you receive Rebecca’s messages of hope and recovery in this conversation.   You can find Rebecca at: Website: https://www.rebeccatolin.com/ Free somatic meditation: https://www.rebeccatolin.com/newsletter   And you can find me at: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@anna_holtzman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email: anna@annaholtzman.com Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.annaholtzman.com⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/from-chronic-pain-to-pass/support
