Season 12
Behind the Scenes of Healing
Healing is one of life’s greatest mysteries. It doesn’t follow a straight line or a predictable timeline. Instead, it unfolds in layers, in quiet moments, in the presence of those who simply show up. This season, we’re stepping into the unseen spaces of healing—the moments behind the scenes that hold immense power yet often go unnoticed.
My journey taught me that healing isn’t just about medical treatments or personal willpower. It’s about the love of a friend who walks beside you, the wisdom of a healer who sees beyond the surface, and the comfort of music or movement when words fall short. It’s about the resilience of caregivers, the dedication of clinicians, and the ripple effect of those who turn pain into purpose.
As we explore these stories together, I hope you’ll recognize healing in places you may not have seen before. Whether you are walking your path, supporting a loved one, or seeking deeper understanding, may these conversations remind you that you are not alone—and that healing is happening in ways both seen and unseen, every single day.

S12 EP3 What Caregivers Don’t Say: The Empathy vs. Empathic Journey
Caregiving is more than just providing support—it’s an emotional, spiritual, and deeply personal journey. Yet, so much of what caregivers experience goes unspoken.
