   Your Body Knows How to Heal: Bowen Therapy, Fascia, and the Gift in the Trial

   What if your hardest seasons are actually gifts? At 30, Wendy Johnson was so sick she could barely remember her own name, and no doctor had answers. Her search for natural healing led her to muscle testing, herbs, and eventually Bowenwork, a gentle therapy that works through the fascia and nervous system to help the body remember how to heal. Then her 20-month-old daughter went into kidney failure, and Wendy learned healing sometimes means herbs AND modern medicine. Becky and Wendy talk about what Bowen therapy is, how stored trauma lives in the body, caring for aging parents on hospice, and why Wendy calls trials gifts. Plus: a non-refundable ticket to Italy and a hot air balloon dare. This episode shares personal experiences and is not medical advice. Meet Wendy Johnson: Wendy is a Bowenwork practitioner in Highland, Utah, a mother of four daughters, and grandmother of nine. Since her 30s she has been on a body-mind-spirit quest, learning muscle testing, herbs, and emotional release work. After Bowenwork helped her husband's sciatica and her own post-COVID brain fog, she completed all 12 levels of practitioner training. She believes our bodies are amazing and able to heal given the right input. 🌿 UtahValleyBowenwork.com Chapters: 00:00 What Makes Wendy a Sendy Mom? 02:30 Sick at 30 With No Answers 04:53 Muscle Testing and Epstein-Barr 07:19 Going All-In on Herbs 09:29 Antibiotics, Tofu, and Clean Living 12:04 Kidney Failure at 20 Months 16:12 The Transplant Years 18:42 How Bowenwork Found Her 19:20 Fascia, Dams, and the Power of Thought 23:06 What Is Bowenwork? 26:32 Kevin's Sciatica and COVID Brain Fog 28:00 What Happens in a Bowen Session 30:57 Bowen Miracles 34:18 Midway Break 36:28 Every Trial Is a Gift 38:42 Caring for a Father-in-Law on Hospice 41:55 Bridging Time for a Brother-in-Law 45:50 Rapid Fire Questions Takeaways: ✨ Your body knows how to heal. Bowenwork's light moves over the fascia tell the brain, "that's not the original blueprint." ✨ Herbs or medicine? Sometimes both. Gather all the information, then listen to your inner voice. ✨ Healing takes time. The body keeps making changes for 7–10 days after a session. ✨ Every trial can hold a gift: "Help me to find the gift in this. Help me to find peace." ✨ Make it hard to back out. Sit with the fear for 90 seconds, then book the non-refundable ticket.

   If You Don't Try, You're Guaranteed Not to Make It: Pivoting, Pirouettes, and Pictures

   Susan Stange finished last in every single hurdles race she ever ran. Then her dad showed up to watch and told her, "If it weren't for you out there, none of those other guys would be winners." In this episode, Becky sits down with her youngest sister, the twelfth of twelve kids, to talk about the one sentence from Dad that shaped Susan's whole life: "If you don't try out, you're guaranteed not to make it." Susan went from mom blogger to birth photographer, became a doula during COVID, planned her own peaceful home birth, took up adult ballet for beginners after a foot zoning session, and now shoots and creates content for her kids' soccer club. The sisters also talk honestly about a season when saying no made Susan miserable, how asking for help and remembering God brought her back, and how to raise resilient kids who never blame their teammates. Find Susan: susanstange.com (http://susanstange.com) | Instagram @susan.joy.az (http://susan.joy.az) Takeaways - You only fail if you don't try. Try it, and if you need to, pivot. - You don't have to be good at something for it to fill you. Find the creative medium you enjoy. - Closing a chapter on purpose isn't giving up. It makes room for what's next. - Saying no to everything can make you just as unhappy as saying yes to everything. Choose your yes. - Asking for help takes courage. Journaling, counseling, and faith can all help you find your way back. - Help kids pick one goal they can control, and never blame your teammates. - You don't have to be consistent. Be consistently trying. - Everybody is necessary, even the one who finishes last.
