She also shares her deeply personal healing journey after being diagnosed with a life-threatening autoimmune disease, explaining how practices like breathwork, Reiki, and nervous system regulation helped her reclaim her health and inspired her to create a wellness space where she now helps others heal. Throughout the conversation, Mike and Shona explore why sharing our stories creates meaningful connection, how our experiences shape who we are, and why vulnerability is one of our greatest strengths.
