- Welcome to episode 25 of the Sacred Illness™ Podcast!
In this episode Dr. Erin is joined by an incredible guest who transformed lifelong chronic health issues into health and wholeness. Kimberly Sleeth, a devoted mother of five, faced extreme stress and chronic illnesses while homeschooling on a single income. Her journey took her through severe health crises, including urinary tract and kidney infections, IBS, profound fatigue and more.
Despite being initially dismissed by medical professionals who attributed her symptoms to anxiety, Kimberly eventually took matters into her own hands. She delved into the world of natural health, nutrition, and herbalism, eventually finding a pathway to health through working on her mind-body connection: the link between being a highly sensitive person and her chronic physical symptoms, which led her to total resolution.
In this episode, Kimberly shares her stories of overcoming severe burnout, emotional trauma, and the additional complexities brought on by perimenopause. She opens up about her breakthrough moments, thanks to learning about the nervous system and engaging in impactful programs (including our own Sacred Illness™ Program!) that helped her body heal from years of discomfort.
Throughout her journey, Kimberly transformed her mindset, reclaimed her confidence, and now stands as a testament to the power of addressing the mind-body link as the foundation of health.
Enjoy!
