In this moving conversation, Lida sits down with her client Sarah Sanchez, a 25-year-old woman who has spent her life learning how to live in—and with—her body. Born with hip dysplasia and chronic pain, Sarah underwent eight reconstructive surgeries just to walk. A traumatic brain injury from a car accident later triggered non-epileptic seizures, further complicating her path.

And yet, through it all, Sarah held her pain close, keeping it quiet so as not to disturb her family’s peace.

Now, at 25, she is beginning to emerge—to integrate, to make meaning, and to speak her truth. This episode is a meditation on gratitude for the cards we are dealt, even when they seem impossibly heavy. Together, Sarah and Lida explore the unexpected beauty born from hardship: the wisdom pain can bring, the accessibility of joy, and the perspective found in life’s crunchiest moments.
