Welcome to Pain Alchemy. After years of living with Stage 4 endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain, I became fascinated by the intersection of science, healing, and the stories we tell ourselves about our bodies. Here you'll find evidence-based conversations on endometriosis, pelvic pain, hormones, the nervous system, and women's health, woven together with lived experience, reflection, and a healthy dose of curiosity. New episodes fortnightly.

    The Guilt of Rest: Navigating Flares, Overdoing It & Letting Yourself Be Human

    This one’s a vulnerable share. In today’s episode, I’m unpacking why this episode took so long to come out... spoiler alert: I overdid it, flared up, and had to pause completely.However, what came to mind for me during that time was the guilt. The guilt of resting when I wasn’t in a flare, the guilt of not showing up, and the guilt of falling behind. If you’ve ever pushed through on a “good” pain day, crammed your to-do list into a tiny window of energy, or felt like rest had to be earned… This one’s for you. Inside, I chat about: Why we overdo it when we feel well (with some juicy nervous system & pain science) How survival mode, trauma patterns & dopamine influence this cycle The boom–bust loop and how to slowly break it My recent flare and what it taught me about pacing and self-worth And how we can reframe rest as a healing tool, not a punishment or a setback Let’s talk about the messy, human side of healing because this is Pain Alchemy, and we’re not doing perfection here.

The podcast aims to create a safe space for open discussions about the complexities of living with chronic pain, including emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects. Beth invites listeners to join her on this journey of healing and self-discovery, encouraging them to explore their own pain narratives and find strength in vulnerability.
