We go deep on why our beliefs about health — especially diagnosis — can shape our bodies and minds, often more than we realize.From the sometimes shocking power of medical language to the cycles triggered by diagnosis, Nellie reveals how re-claiming your perception around health is ground zero for healing. We discuss motherhood, childhood fevers, and how tracking the “story” behind a symptom unlocks true transformation. Whether you’re deep into holistic wellness or just starting to question conventional medicine, this episode invites you to challenge, reflect, and equip yourself for real resilience.✨ We Talk AboutNellie’s health journey — from mastitis to motherhood and discovering German New MedicineDiagnosis shock: how being told “you have this” can create biological disease cyclesWhy over-screening isn’t always empowering (the letters, the tests, and choosing your path)Conflict, perception, and their impact on physical symptoms — including the role of authority figures in shaping identityThe GNM perspective: how symptoms are often signs of healing, and why learning this paradigm “while you’re well” is crucialMothering through illness: perception, self-talk, and empowering your child to trust their bodyHow Nellie became a “health detective” — using story, timelines, and perceptual shifts in client workThe power of awareness and self-responsibility versus fear or blameNavigating medical interventions, community, and the art of choosing what’s right for you (and your family)Friendship, communication, and conscious disagreement — why open dialogue is a superpower Why cutting people off (“cancel culture”) may reflect areas where we’re disempowered and how relational dynamics shape wellbeingRadical self-honesty, boundaries, and why healing is an inside job💡 Key ThemesDiagnosis, perception, and the body’s languageThe importance of learning new paradigms of wellness before crisis hitsBiological living in a modern world (and why fear makes things worse)The role of community, empowered choices, and relational healthChildren’s symptoms, mother-child dynamics, and generational healingResilience, narrative, and the difference between practical change and perceptual changeWhy empowerment, not dogma, leads to sustainable wellness📖 Reflection“The body is always working for you, not against you. The shock of a diagnosis, the rush to test, the pressure to conform — these are all invitations to reclaim your story, your perception, and your power. Healing starts well before crisis, moves through community, and is anchored in genuine self-responsibility. You can love your people fiercely, eat the sourdough, argue about stick insects, and still show up whole. Learn while you’re well, and let your relationships — with your body, your kids, your friends — be the front lines of a quieter revolution.”NELLIE’S LINKS: Foundations of German New Medicine: https://nelliebwell.com/ Instagram: @nellie_newearthwellness FREYJA + Waitlist: www.biorelations.com | https://freyja-register-your-interest.getresponsesite.com/ @biorelations on InstagramCurious about radical self-responsibility, the biology of conflict, or why getting a diagnosis is only part of your story?
