How can we find purposeful living, even when facing chronic illness? In today's episode, host Tina Yeager sits down with Christy Award-winning novelist Katie Powner to discuss purposeful living in the face of chronic illness. Together, they delve into how limitations can shape our character, draw us into deeper connections with others, and open unexpected doors to meaning and resilience. Whether you're navigating chronic illness yourself or supporting a loved one who is, this conversation offers authentic insights, practical encouragement, and a reminder that every life—no matter the challenges—has extraordinary value and purpose. Join us and discover how God's grace can transform even our greatest struggles into opportunities for growth and connection. Key Takeaways: Limitations as Growth Opportunities: Chronic illness often shrinks what we think is possible, but Katie discusses how it can actually open avenues for spiritual growth, authentic connection, and even leadership through vulnerability. The Power of Prayer: When daily routines are upended and we can't “do” as much, prayer remains a powerful, purposeful act that is always accessible—and profoundly impactful. Purpose Beyond Our Expectations: Sometimes God's plans for us don't align with what we'd choose or imagine. True meaning emerges as we trust Him, invite others in, and see ripple effects in our communities. Ordinary Life, Extraordinary Impact: Katie's stories spotlight regular people facing tough circumstances—reminding us that anyone, in any setting, can do something extraordinary with God's help. Featured Quote: "Your world is always as big as the Lord and his grace that abounds...the opportunity, the ability to serve the kingdom is still just as great as any other person." – Katie Powner Get Inspired Further: Want to dive deeper?

THERAPISTS! Join me and Victoria Rodriguez of Revive Counseling in our 6-week Chronic Illness Therapists Cohort! This is a curriculum-based consultation class for therapists who want to do their best work with the chronic illness population.[CLICK HERE TO JOIN]**Episode summary: In this follow-up episode with registered dietitian Samina Qureshi, we explore her new clinical textbook that tackles something I see all the time in my practice - when chronic GI conditions create eating patterns that look disordered but have nothing to do with weight or body image. Samina and her team of 10 health professionals wrote this resource because they were seeing patients come in terrified of food, experiencing unexplained weight loss, not because they wanted to be thin, but because they were genuinely afraid of throwing up or having worsened GI symptoms. We talk about ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) and how it shows up in the GI space, why it's so important to believe patients when they say certain foods cause pain even without a formal diagnosis, and how the goal isn't just telling someone to "eat and you'll feel better" - because how frustrating is that advice? Instead, it's about finding accessible ways to nourish their body while expanding their diet and helping them feel confident around food again. This conversation is valuable for both clinicians who want to understand these complex intersections and for anyone living with GI conditions who's been told their very real physical symptoms are just anxiety when they're actually doing what they can to keep their body safe.Resources mentioned:→ Samina's Book, Comprehensive Nutrition Therapy for Co-Occurring Gastrointestinal & Eating Disorders: the EDGI Training ProjectMEET DESTINY: Website / Instagram / BlueSky / YouTube / TikTokMEET SAMINA: Website / Instagram / TikTokSIGN UP FOR DESTINY'S NEXT LIVE WORKSHOP→ Aug 30th → READ THE BLOG FOR THIS EPISODEASK DESTINY ANYTHING→ Submit your questions hereFOR YOU, OUR PODCAST LISTENERSJOIN DESTINY'S MEMBERSHIP - for folks with chronic pain & illness→ ⁠Join Welcome To The Waiting Room⁠ (ongoing support for staying regulated while living with chronic illness - This does not replace therapy, but it's a great addition to your regular therapy appointments)FOR MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS

What if your doctor was the one who needed saving?In this eye-opening episode of The Big Silence, Karena Dawn sits down with Dr. Darshan Shah, a surgeon, longevity expert, and founder of Next Health. After decades in medicine and a career spent helping others, Dr. Shah found himself battling chronic disease, obesity, depression, and burnout. But it wasn't pills or procedures that saved him. It was a radical shift toward root-cause healing and functional medicine. This episode dives deep into the science behind metabolic health, food and mood, hormones, inflammation, and even Alzheimer's prevention. If you've ever felt like your health was spiraling or your mind was foggy beyond repair, this conversation is your invitation to start again from a smarter, stronger, and more self-aware place.What's the Real Cause of Chronic Illness, and Can We Reverse It Without Medication?Dr. Shah explains why most health advice treats symptoms, not causes, and how root-cause medicine, nutrition, and tracking your biomarkers can change everything.(00:03:15) When the Doctor Becomes the Patient: Dr. Shah's Wake-Up CallAt 42, Dr. Shah was 50 pounds overweight, had high blood pressure, prediabetes, and depression — despite being a leading surgeon.He realized that traditional medicine taught him how to treat disease, but not how to prevent or reverse it.His journey into functional medicine began with uncovering the root causes of mental and physical illness.The experience made him rethink everything he thought he knew about health — and launched his mission to transform care from reactive to proactive.(00:11:05) Food, Mood & Metabolic Disease: What Your Grocery Cart Isn't Telling YouUltra-processed foods cause nutrient deficiencies, inflammation, and metabolic chaos — and often trigger depression and anxiety.Reducing sugar and refined carbs (like bread, pasta, and pastries) is critical to brain and body health.Dr. Shah recommends key books:Good Energy by Dr. Casey MeansBrain Energy by Dr. Christopher PalmerGlucose Revolution by Jessie InchauspéMetabolic health is deeply connected to mental health — you can't treat one without addressing the other.(00:14:19) Hormones, Bloodwork & Becoming the Boss of Your Own BiologyMost doctors don't check thyroid, testosterone, or estrogen levels — even though these regulate nearly every cell in your body.Annual (or even quarterly) bloodwork is essential to catch changes before they become diagnoses.At home, you can track body composition with a bioimpedance scale and sleep/stress with wearables.Knowing your health data empowers you to take action before symptoms spiral.(00:18:44) Fitness for Longevity: Why “Exercise Snacks” Work Better Than the GymDr. Shah encourages 3–5 minute movement breaks throughout the day — called “exercise snacks” — to counteract sedentary behavior.Research shows that every 45 minutes of sitting increases your risk of disease.

This conversation is an invitation to reconnect with the parts of you that have long been silenced. To reconnect with the truth of who you are. And to feel what your body is really saying through symptoms and sensations. It also serves as a reminder that healing isn't about fixing — it's about coming home to yourself through the power of somatic healing, emotional awareness, and embodied safety.   In this transformative episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with my dear friend, Dr. Christian Gonzalez — naturopathic doctor, host of Heal Thy Self, and founder of the Emotional Liberation Method — to explore the powerful connection between the body, trauma, and true healing. I've personally had the honor of working with Dr. G, and I can tell you — his work is nothing short of profound. His understanding of the body, trauma, and emotional expression has shifted the way I see healing, both in myself and in others.   From the brilliant role of fascia to the energy of repressed emotion, Dr. G offers a fresh lens on why we get sick — and what it actually takes to get well. Together, we dive into how childhood patterns shape adult identities, how the nervous system underpins nearly every chronic condition, and why voice and vibration — not just breath — may be the missing link in somatic healing.   We also touch on the emotional profiles often overlooked in cancer care, the unspoken shame many women carry, the truth about self-abandonment, and how co-regulation can become a portal to profound transformation.   Whether you're on a healing journey or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, this conversation is a powerful reminder: What if your chronic symptoms weren't random — but messages from a body that's been trying to speak to you all along?

Dr. Da Costa explores how sleep challenges are deeply entangled with social and emotional wellbeing as well as pain, fatigue and cognition for those living with rheumatoid arthritis and related conditions. She also overviews Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI), which is the the gold standard for treating sleep disturbances. Whether it's resisting social pressure to stay up late or coping with fatigue while caregiving, this episode explores sleep-related struggles and provides specific tips for improving sleep.Episode at a glance:Sleep Is a Critical Yet Underrecognized Component of Arthritis Care: Despite its profound impact, sleep is often neglected in both patient and provider conversations. Poor sleep can worsen arthritis symptoms such as pain, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and cognitive dysfunction—even when the disease is otherwise well-managed.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTI) Is a Promising Non-Pharmacological Treatment: CBTI is considered the gold standard for treating insomnia without medication. It helps patients reframe negative beliefs about sleep and adopt healthier sleep behaviors, such as limiting screen time in bed and creating a relaxing pre-sleep routine. Internet-based CBTI programs tailored for arthritis patients are currently being piloted.Sleep Challenges Are Deeply Intertwined with Social and Emotional Wellbeing: The podcast highlights how sleep difficulties affect social life, relationships, and self-advocacy. From navigating social pressure to stay up late to managing fatigue while caregiving, the conversation emphasizes the need for greater awareness and support around sleep in the context of chronic illness.Medical disclaimer: All content found on Arthritis Life public channels (including Rheumer Has It) was created for generalized informational purposes only.

Longevity isn't just about adding years to life—it's about adding life to those years. At the heart of lasting vitality are the often-overlooked essentials: deep social connection, a clear sense of purpose, and a mindset filled with optimism. These emotional and relational foundations are just as critical as what's happening inside the body. Thanks to emerging diagnostics and the growing field of functional and longevity medicine, we now have the ability to detect subtle shifts in biology—long before symptoms arise—giving us the chance to course-correct with personalized strategies. By combining cutting-edge science with time-tested lifestyle practices like nourishing food, regular movement, restful sleep, and meaningful relationships, we can not only slow the aging process but begin to reverse it—unlocking a future where growing older means growing stronger, wiser, and more vibrant. In this episode, I explore, along with Peter Diamandis and Dr. Jeffrey Bland the keys to living a longer, healthier life by combining cutting-edge longevity science with the power of mindset, purpose, and meaningful connection.  Peter Diamandis is the founder and executive chairman of the XPRIZE Foundation, which leads the world in designing and operating large-scale incentive competitions. He was recently named by Fortune as one of the “World's 50 Greatest Leaders.” He is also the executive founder of Singularity University, a graduate-level Silicon Valley institution that counsels the world's leaders on exponentially growing technologies. Dr. Jeff Bland is the founder of Big Bold Health, a company on a mission to transform the way people think about one of nature's greatest innovations—the immune system. Through Big Bold Health, Dr. Bland is advocating for the power of Immuno-Rejuvenation to enhance immunity at a global level, often through the rediscovery of ancient food crops and superfoods. To get there, he is building a network of small farms and suppliers throughout the US that take a clear stance on regenerative agriculture, environmental stewardship, and planetary health. Dr. Bland's career in health spans more than 40 years. A nutritional biochemist by training, he began in academia as a university professor. He then spent three decades in the natural products industry, working alongside other pioneers. A lifelong educator, Dr. Bland has traveled the world many times over in his role as the “father of functional medicine.” In 1991, he and his wife, Susan, founded The Institute for Functional Medicine. In 2012, he founded another educational nonprofit called the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute.
