S3 E116: Back Pain, Relapse, and Living in the "Messy Middle" with Jacqueline

When you speak to us, we hear you. People have been asking for more content that isn't simply a success story - they want to hear about the "messy middle" as I like to call it. The dark corners of recovery when things feel really hard and hopeless even though you've seen light before.

When I first met Jacqueline, she was down for the count with back pain. After learning about the brain science and doing a consistent JournalSpeak practice, she became pain free and even came on the pod to tell her story. As time went by, however, Jacqueline fell into a trap to which we are all susceptible: the "I got this!" fallacy that can sometimes lead to living in fear. She found herself back in terrible pain, and landed in our membership community.

As we surrounded Jacqueline with love and support, she began to get better and better. But her journey was hard and full of many tears. Today, we talk about it all. There is nothing like the inspiration of another human's brave story.

Sending love to you, wherever you find yourself on this path. xoxo n.
