In this episode, Ashley sits down with Paula Marie to explore the intersection of emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and physical recovery from complex chronic illness. Paula shares her own journey of navigating MCAS, environmental sensitivities, and years of intense detox protocols and what ultimately moved the needle most in her healing.From practical somatic tools like parasympathetic breathing to unexpected lessons about nutrition, boundaries, and self-worth, Paula brings both grounded wisdom and refreshing honesty about what works, what doesn’t, and why healing is rarely a straight line. This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck, overly reactive, or desperate for relief, offering both tangible practices and a bigger picture perspective that invites more peace, resilience, and connection with yourself.ENTER OUR GIVEAWAY BELOW TO CELEBRATE THE LAUNCH OF OUR PODCAST, WE ARE GIVING AWAY ONE SPOT INTO OUR CONSCIOUS CONSTRUCTION CONTAINER ($12K IN VALUE!).ENTER TO WIN BY DOING THE FOLLOWING:LISTEN TO ONE EPISODE OF THE AWAKENING SPACES PODCASTSUBSCRIBE + FOLLOW THE SHOW ON APPLE PODCASTLEAVE A RATING + REVIEW ON APPLE PODCAST (AN EXTRA POINT IF YOU ALSO SUBSCRIBE AND REVIEW ON SPOTIFY!)HEAD TO THIS INSTAGRAM POST AND TAG ONE PERSON WHO YOU THINK WOULD BENEFIT FROM THE SHOW.
