Why Symptom-Chasing Doesn’t Work (And What Your Body Is Really Trying to Say)

Most of the women who find me aren’t new to healing.

They’ve tried the gut protocols.
The supplements.
The hormone tests.
The clean eating.
The cold plunges.
The castor oil packs.

And still—something in their body feels off.
Their skin breaks out. Their cycle stays irregular. Their energy crashes. Their gut flares up again.

They’re doing everything right.
And they’re still stuck.

Here’s what I want to tell you:

It’s not because you’re broken.
It’s because you’ve been trained to chase symptoms instead of stories.

Most of modern health care—even the “functional” kind—is based on a masculine paradigm.
Linear, mechanical, surface-level.
It treats your body like a machine to optimize, not a woman with a story to hold.

But your body isn’t mechanical.

She’s poetic.
She’s cyclical.
She speaks in symptoms because she doesn’t know how else to get your attention.

Your Symptoms Are Not Just Physical

In my 1:1 work, I’ve seen this again and again:

• A woman with persistent bloating that no diet has solved—until she unravels the emotional tension she’s been swallowing for years.

• A woman with jawline acne that doesn’t respond to hormone pills—because it’s not about her skin. It’s about her repressed anger.

• A woman with constant fatigue—who doesn’t need more adaptogens. She needs to stop performing softness when her body is screaming “I’m not okay.”

The body expresses what the mind represses.

And until we stop bypassing that truth, healing will remain shallow. Incomplete. Frustrating.

This Is Why Symptom-Chasing Doesn’t Work

Because the bloat isn’t just food.
The PMS isn’t just progesterone.
The skin flare isn’t just “purging.”

They’re messengers.
They’re archetypal signals.
They’re cries from the emotional body.

You don’t heal by treating your body like a problem to solve.

You heal when you begin to ask:

• What emotion have I been suppressing?

• What part of me is still performing instead of feeling?

• What am I holding that isn’t mine?

Most women don’t need another protocol.
They need a witness.
A rhythm.
A structure that teaches their nervous system it’s finally safe to exhale.

What We Do Instead

Inside my consultations, we don’t start with band-aids.

We begin with terrain:
Your gut. Your liver. Your hormones. Your cycle.
But through the lens of your story, your patterns, your survival strategies.

We decode:

• Your dominant archetype

• Your suppressed shadow

• Your symptom clusters as expressions of your emotional life

• Your body’s need for containment, warmth, and clarity

This isn’t fast work.
It’s real work.
The kind that lasts.

Because true healing isn’t about fixing.
It’s about remembering.

If this spoke to something in your body… it’s time.
