In this episode, Imogen shares her powerful healing journey — from living with severe disabilities and perfectionism to moving through the extremes of Western medicine, natural health, and even Ayurveda. What looked like “wellness” on the surface eventually became another form of rigidity, triggering some of the deepest disordered eating and self-pressure she had ever experienced.

Imogen opens up about how our mentorship work to expand her consciousness/relationship with life helped her step out of the cycle of extremes and into a completely new relationship with her body. Through somatics, energetic awareness, and deeper consciousness work, she discovered a way of healing that wasn’t based on protocols or purity, but on presence, intuition, and self-trust.

This episode explores:

• healing after severe disability diagnoses, wellness rigidity, and perfectionism

• • the shadow side of wellness culture and Ayurvedic dogma
  • Finding freedom in accepting our humanness & embracing the joys of life

• • Somatics, energy and nervous system awareness as a path to liberation

  • what real, sustainable healing looks like beyond extremes

  • how consciousness, energy, and embodiment change everything

    If you’re navigating chronic symptoms, caught between healing modalities, or feeling pressure to “do wellness perfectly,” this conversation will show you a gentler, truer way back to yourself.
