Bessy Goulianos’ journey began in her mid-twenties when, shortly after becoming a new mother, she was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease.
For years, she pushed through severe illness, prioritizing her roles as a wife, mother, and caretaker while neglecting her own needs.
As her health declined, she was forced onto disability and underwent major surgery that permanently changed her life, yet also gave her a renewed chance to live.
Her challenges continued with emotional losses, including a divorce and the death of her mother, followed by another autoimmune condition.
Despite repeatedly pushing through pain, her body eventually reached a breaking point, leading to a moment of deep realization: no one was coming to save her, and she had to choose herself.
This realization marked the beginning of her healing.
Bessy shifted from survival to self-awareness, deepening her work in meditation, energy healing, sound therapy, and mindset transformation.
Within a few years, she transformed her life, becoming an author, speaker, and creator of The Goulianos Whole Integration Model.
Her story reflects resilience, self-trust, and the power of choosing oneself, anchored by the message that defines her work today: you are not broken, you are becoming.
Key Takeaways from Bessy’s Journey
1. Healing Begins with a Choice – The moment you realize no one is coming to save you is the moment you reclaim your power and decide to save yourself.
2. Small Steps Create Big Shifts – Ten minutes of grounding, a few intentional breaths, or a moment of stillness each day can gently move you from survival into healing.
3. Look Beyond the Symptom – True transformation happens when you stop asking “How do I fix this?” and start asking “What is this trying to tell me about my life, my stress, and my beliefs?”
4. Putting Yourself First Is Not Selfish – Prioritizing your wellbeing allows you to show up stronger, more grounded, and more loving—for yourself and for everyone around you.
5. You Are Not Broken, You Are Becoming – Your challenges, illnesses, and setbacks are not the end of your story. They are shaping you into a wiser, stronger, more aligned version of who you’re meant to be.
Quotes by Bessy
1. “Take three deep breaths and really feel them, you can literally feel yourself calming down and coming back to the present moment.”
2. “You are not broken. You are becoming, and every challenge you’ve walked through is part of your transformation.”
