Ep 199 ft. Ruthie Lindsey: There I Am - From Immense Chronic Pain to Healing, Thriving, & Truly Living

Ruthie Lindsey is a true healing inspiration, an author, a speaker, a podcast host, and one of the most incredible humans. This Spring, she released her life-changing healing memoir, “There I Am,” her beautiful story of overcoming pain after being hit by an ambulance at 17 years old and then being the only person on earth to have a wire poking into her brains team. She identified with her pain story for many years because it made her who she is — but that is not who she is anymore. If you’ve heard her story before, this is going to be a different angle entirely, which we are so excited about. Rather than talking about her pain story, we focus on her healing journey to share that hope is possible, and how lovely and glorious and full of playful energy life can be on the other side of pain. We get into water fasting, ayahuasca, journal speak, plant medicine, shamanism and so much more. We can’t wait to hear your thoughts!  Thank you Four Sigmatic for sponsoring this episode! Jordan has been drinking their adaptogenic coffee since 2015, and it gives her the energy and alertness she needs without the jitters of regular coffee. Her favorite right now is the chaga, which is full of natural herbs that keep you alert, and the reishi, which helps to calm you down at night.
