What if your body has been trying to get your attention - through tension, numbness, or stress - but you've been too busy to listen?

Enter our first show of 2026 to help usher a new chapter in literally feeling the feels.

Dr. Jenn Rapkin is a naturopathic doctor who helps people reconnect with their feelings through body-based care. In this episode, we talk about why many of us learned to "push through" emotions - and what that can cost our health. Jenn shares simple ways to notice feelings in the body (like "hard bubbles" in the chest) and why emotions come in waves. You'll learn gentle steps to build emotional strength, without forcing anything. Jenn also explains when it's best to get professional support, especially if trauma is part of your story. This is a kind, practical chat for real life.
