Kelly Gores believes pain isn’t something to avoid — it’s often the portal to who we’re meant to become. We dive into the story behind creating her documentary Heal, the spiritual surrender it required, and why so many people stay sick in a system built to manage symptoms, not address root causes. We unpack the difference between recovery and true healing, the power of language in shaping our experience, and how the body holds a deeper intelligence we’ve forgotten how to listen to. This is a conversation about alignment, trust, and remembering what wholeness actually feels like.
