What happens when you realize you don't actually believe you can heal? After years of illness, grief, and perfectionism, Heidi Blackie asked herself one life-altering question—and it reshaped everything.

In this episode, you'll hear:

- 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"
