107. Processing emotions and physical pain: your period as a portal

What if your period wasn’t just something to endure—but a sacred portal for deep emotional healing?

In this raw, real-time episode, I share an unfiltered experience of how physical pain—specifically menstrual cramps—can become a gateway to profound emotional release and ancestral healing. From a history of severe period pain and disconnection from my body to a spontaneous somatic ritual that revealed layers of grief, lineage trauma, and insight… this episode is one of my most personal.

If you’ve struggled with chronic pain, emotional overwhelm, or a complicated relationship with your body, this one is for you.

We’ll explore:

• The link between physical pain and unprocessed emotions

• How our bodies store generational trauma

• My spontaneous womb-healing ritual that changed everything

• Why I now treat my period as a spiritual reset and somatic check-in

• Gentle invitations for you to explore this in your own life

This is a deep one—and a tender reminder of how wise and powerful our bodies truly are.
