190. Dr. Jennifer Chrisman [Part 1]: Stop Settling for Surface Healing—Integrate Mind, Body, and Soul

What if true healing means embracing every part of yourself—mind, body, and soul? In this episode of INHABIT, host Alessia Citro welcomes Dr. Jennifer Chrisman, doctor of clinical psychology, functional nutritionist, and integrative holistic health practitioner. Together, they explore what it really takes to move beyond surface-level solutions and step into authentic, embodied transformation. Listeners will hear how Dr. Jenn’s own health crisis inspired her to return to school for a master’s in nutrition, blending psychology, somatic practices, and nutritional science for lasting change.

Dr. Jenn shares her unique approach to whole-person care, emphasizing the importance of addressing trauma, nervous system regulation, and nutrition as interconnected pieces of the healing puzzle. The conversation delves into the “Gates of Awakening,” the power of conscious choice, and the social mirror—revealing how our relationships and triggers can guide us toward deeper self-awareness and growth. With warmth and wisdom, Dr. Jenn challenges spiritual dogma and invites listeners to see themselves as inherently whole and worthy.

Whether you’re on a path of self-discovery, seeking holistic health, or ready to break free from old patterns, this episode offers practical insights and inspiration. Tune in to learn how integrating mind, body, and soul can help you inhabit your fullest, most authentic self.
