Chronic Illness Is a Story We Can Rewrite with Karyn Shanks MD

What if chronic illness isn’t just something to fix, but a story we’ve been taught to accept as truth?In this conversation, I sit down with Karyn Shanks, MD, to explore what healing really means when we stop treating the body like a broken machine and start listening to the whole person. We talk about disappointment in conventional medicine, the courage it takes to question the stories we’ve been given, and how trauma, fatigue, and even autoimmune symptoms can be invitations back to ourselves.This episode feels like a deep exhale, a reminder that the body is not wrong, and that small, simple shifts can open doors we didn’t know were there.In This Episode, We Cover:- Why the body is never wrong, and symptoms are messages, not mistakes.- How trauma, even small t trauma, shapes chronic illness and survival biology.- The power of small, simple shifts and reclaiming your own story as part of healing.Connect with Karyn:Website: https://www.karynshanksmd.comBooks:Unbroken: Reclaim Your WholenessHeal: A Nine-Stage Roadmap to Recover Energy, Reverse Chronic Illness, and Claim the Potential of a Vibrant New YouThe Wisdom of COVID-19: How to Rejuvenate, Reclaim Hope, and Heal in the New Post-Pandemic WorldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/KarynShanksMD/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/karynshanksmd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karyn-shanks-md-9ba2a520/______________________________________[FREE TRAINING]How high-achieving women can DITCH anxiety in as little as five minutes a day www.brave-method.com/anxiety[FREE CALL]Book a free call to ask me questions directly and seeif we are a fit for working together. www.bravemethod.com/book[RESULTS]Which of these results do you want and inspire you the most? www.brave-method.com/testimonials💗 Dr. Steph @DrStephanieLopezwww.brave-method.com
