A board-certified neurosurgeon walks into your podcast and tells you that 40% of the surgeries people are told they need — they don't.
And if your doctor handed you a form and said "sign here" without a real conversation, that's actually malpractice.
Dr. Jeff Gross left the spine surgery conference circuit, retrained in regenerative medicine, and built a practice on informed consent, exosomes, and the radical idea that your body already knows how to heal.
This one's for everyone who's been handed a prescription instead of a choice.

🖼️The art of this episode is a dissolution.
From Ice to Water to Air to Nothing (#50, Menstrual Phase) was created during the phase when the body releases everything that no longer serves — this piece mirrors what Dr. Jeff Gross talks about in this episode: that regeneration isn't an intervention. It's a return. If you've ever felt frozen in a system that wasn't built to actually heal you — this one's for you.

About the Podcast
Your pain is not a design flaw.
Your body is not broken.
And you were never meant to white-knuckle your way through a life that doesn't fit.
I'm Meredith Ochoa — ANOTHER F#%ING ARTIST. After 17 years of endometriosis, surgical failures, and being told my pain was psychological, I stopped outsourcing my healing and went in. I healed myself. I turned the journey into art. And I built this show to introduce you to every expert, practice, and buried truth that helped me get there.
Face Your Shit, Heal Yourself is a movement + podcast.
We cover chronic pain, hormonal health, endometriosis, autoimmune disease, trauma, cycle syncing, functional medicine, Reiki, Ayurveda, sacred sexuality, Taoist healing, psilocybin, and everything else the mainstream medical system doesn't want on your radar.
The only way out is through. Art is how.
