In Healing Mindset, hosted by Nazish, we explore a gentler truth: healing isn’t always about “fixing” life—it’s about how we live inside it, especially when things feel uncertain.
This episode is for anyone navigating serious illness, caregiving, or emotional fatigue who wants grounded tools (not hype) to stay connected to meaning, agency, and self-compassion—without abandoning medical care or slipping into pressure.
About the Guest:
Kelly lives with an ALS diagnosis and shares her lived journey with meditation, lifestyle shifts, and support systems.
Kim is an advocate supporting people living with ALS and other neuromuscular conditions, and co-creates conversations on holistic, evidence-informed living.
Episode Chapters:
00:00 Why healing isn’t always “fixing”
03:10 Kelly’s journey: TBI, diagnosis, and returning to calm
08:05 The biggest misconception about holistic approaches
12:40 Mind-body-spirit: what traditional systems miss
16:20 Where to begin: meditation, Tai Chi, small choices
20:10 Setbacks without self-blame: ending “victimhood” gently
24:00 Healing Through the Quantum + where to find them
Key Takeaways:
- Start with one daily calming practice (meditation/Tai Chi) before adding more tools.
- Notice the “label trap”: prognosis talk can shape your nervous system and choices.
- Build support: healing gets steadier when you stop doing it alone.
- Focus on agency: “What can I do today?” beats “What if I can’t?”
- Let hope be spacious—no forcing, no performing.
