What happens when you realize you don’t actually believe you can heal?
Heidi Blackie spent a decade battling chronic illness, grief, and perfectionism until one raw moment in her kitchen changed everything. She asked herself a simple but life-altering question: What am I believing about my ability to heal?
In this conversation, Heidi shares how that vow to believe in herself shifted her relationship with her body, her perfectionism, and her sense of self. Her story will resonate with anyone who has felt trapped by patterns, weighed down by loss, or unsure how to move forward.
You’ll hear about:
- The moment Heidi realized disbelief was keeping her stuck in illness
- How grief, trauma, and perfectionism built the conditions for collapse
- The practices and reframes that helped her connect to her “unshakable me”
Healing isn’t quick or easy, but it starts with belief.
