Episode description

In this conversation, Alana Joy Newton shares her journey from being a registered nurse to a psychotherapist and how she is now helping people after hundreds of clients.

She discusses the importance of understanding the nervous system, reconnection with one's authentic self, and the role of compassion in healing.

Alana opens up about a diagnoses she at first identified with but has since changed how she views.

We dive into the significance of trusting the body's wisdom, navigating fear and intuition, and breaking free from victimhood.

She critiques the medical system's lack of compassion and highlights the value of polyvagal theory in understanding our emotional states.

The conversation concludes with practical exercises for listeners to reconnect with themselves and a reflection on the biggest lie Alana once believed.
