EPISODE 3: "THE BETRAYAL I RARELY SAY OUT LOUD (Even to My Ayurvedic Colleagues)"
Season 2 | How to Take Care of Yourself Podcast
I was teaching Ayurveda at the highest level. Board certified. Co-teaching with luminaries in the field. And my body was completely wrecked.
For 18 months, I couldn't poop without help. I was depressed, anxious, exhausted—and absolutely convinced it was because I was doing something wrong.
This is the betrayal I rarely say out loud. And this is the story of what happened when I discovered the framework I'd trusted for 15 years was incomplete.
