Neuroplastic Pain, TMS, and the Science of Unlearning Chronic Symptoms with Dr. Howard Schubiner 29.05.2026 1h 6mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Of all the conversations we have on this podcast, this one feels especially important because Dr. Howard Schubiner has been standing at the intersection of medicine, neuroscience, research, and mindbody healing for decades. In this episode, Howard shares the personal and professional path that led him from traditional medicine to Dr. Sarno’s work, and eventually to becoming one of the leading voices in neuroplastic chronic pain and illness. We talk about why pain is never “all in your head,” but is always created by the brain, how predictive processing helps explain why symptoms feel so real and so frightening, and why curiosity is often the first crack in the fear that keeps people stuck. Howard also walks us through the growing body of randomized controlled research behind Pain Reprocessing Therapy and Emotion Awareness and Expression Therapy, including why these approaches are showing such meaningful results compared with more traditional coping-based therapies. We talk about chronic pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, fibromyalgia, migraines, pelvic pain, IBS, and the many symptoms that can arise when the nervous system is operating from fear, learned danger, and unprocessed emotional experience. What I love most about Howard’s work is that it is deeply scientific and deeply compassionate at the same time. His message is not that your suffering is imagined. His message is that your suffering is real, your body is not broken, and there may be a way forward that you have not yet been offered. Joins us! XO n.

From the Vault: REAL TIME HEAL - When Emotions Turn Into Pain: Migraines and Neck Pain with Heather 27.05.2026 58mLearn how to JournalSpeak : https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Heather was in a "bad mood" for months, even years. She had taken a job that was way too much pressure, and wasn't practicing self-care. One day on vacation, the occasional migraine that used to be nothing to Heather came on like a storm. She experienced numbness and pain to the point where she worried she was having a stroke! This led to a chronic situation of which I am VERY familiar. Once she found this podcast, Heather was able to begin her healing journey, but she has questions about Inner Child Work and other concepts that would help her move forward. That's what I'm here for! Join us for an inspiring and educational RTH which ends (joyfully) in gratitude for the pain and the doors it has opened between Heather and herself. You might find this odd, but actually it is the place that most people land: gratitude. This is a human life, and we are here to LIVE IT fully and without limits. That is what this work offers you.

Pelvic Pain, Shame, and the Long Road to Freedom with Claire Birnie 22.05.2026 1h 1mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak In this episode, I’m joined by the wonderful Claire Birnie, whose story is such a powerful reminder that healing does not always arrive in one clean, linear, cinematic moment. Claire lived with chronic pelvic and vaginal pain for more than two decades. After years of medical searching, diagnoses that named the pain but did not resolve it, countless treatments, medications, physical therapies, and the deep loneliness that can come with symptoms people are afraid to talk about, Claire eventually found the work of Dr. Sarno, JournalSpeak, and our mindbody approach. What I love so much about this conversation is Claire’s honesty about the long way around. She talks about researching, resisting, comparing herself to other recovery stories, wondering if she was doing it wrong, and slowly learning that every part of her process belonged. We talk about good-girl conditioning, conflict avoidance, the fear of being seen, the shame of not knowing how to feel, and the way the nervous system can create symptoms in the very places we most want to hide. Claire’s recovery was not about doing this perfectly. It was about becoming safe enough to be herself, to speak up, to take risks, to have her own back, and to stop abandoning herself in the name of being acceptable. Claire has spent years helping hold this work for others — first as an admin of the original JournalSpeak Facebook page, and now as an admin of Nicole Sachs’ Support Circle, where she continues to offer steadiness, wisdom, and lived proof to people who are still finding their way. Her story is also in MIND YOUR BODY! Claire is now the Co-Director of Living Proof, a UK-based, recoveree-led nonprofit devoted to sharing the science and possibility of recovery from chronic pain and other neuroplastic symptoms. Living Proof was founded in 2022 and offers recovery stories, films, blogs, resources, professional education, and a growing community for people who need to know they are not alone. Claire’s own story is featured there as part of her mission to bring this message especially to people in the UK, where many still feel that mindbody and neuroplastic recovery work is happening “somewhere else.” Through Living Proof, she is helping amplify voices, provide credible resources, and offer exactly what she once needed most: hope, connection, and the living evidence that recovery is possible.

Michael Porter Jr., Chronic Pain, and the Question Everyone Is Asking 15.05.2026 50mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak In this solo episode, I’m responding to the flood of questions that came in after a viral Instagram reel shared the story of my work with NBA player Michael Porter Jr. Michael’s recovery is extraordinary, but this episode is not just about Michael. It’s about the question his story awakens in so many people: How can someone have a very real diagnosis, very real imaging, very real pain, and still recover when they begin to understand the brain, the nervous system, and the mind-body connection? After three back surgeries, ongoing pain, and a diagnosis of degenerative disc disease, Michael reached out to me because he was willing to consider that there might be another explanation for what was happening in his body. That willingness changed everything. Today, I’m breaking down the larger teaching behind his story through the three legs of the stool in my work: believe, do the work, and patience and kindness for yourself. I explain why chronic pain is not “in your head,” but why the solution is not in the body, even when there are findings on an MRI, blood work, gut testing, or a scary diagnosis on paper. I talk about degenerative disc disease, back pain, migraines, IBS, autoimmune symptoms, long COVID, pelvic pain, inflammation, neuropathy, and the way the nervous system can keep us safe in the unsafest way. Most importantly, I want you to understand this: your pain is real, your symptoms are real, and your body is not broken. When you understand what sustained fight-or-flight is doing, when you learn how to lower the emotional reservoir through JournalSpeak, and when you begin treating yourself with real self-compassion, healing becomes possible in a way many people have never been told to consider.

From the Vault: The Connection Between Trauma and Chronic Pain/Migraines with Heather 13.05.2026 58mLearn how to JournalSpeak : https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Heather has lived through a lot. She grew up in a family struggling with addiction, and found herself gaslit and confused at every turn. As she grew older, this trauma she suffered began to express itself through physical pain syndromes, namely chronic migraines (19 a month!) and shoulder pain - among other medical anomalies. Heather was in literal sustained fight or flight, and her body was keeping the score. Through my work and practicing mindbody medicine, Heather found her way to the light. Join us for a heart-lifting and emotional conversation about the ways in which our bodies seek to protect us with our pain and conditions, and how to forge a clear path to freedom. xoxo n. 1:1 COACHING WITH TRAINED COACHES SUPERVISED DIRECTLY BY NICOLE PLEASE RATE AND REVIEW THE PODCAST HERE TO HELP OTHERS FIND IT!

She Came for a Break. She Left with Her Life Back - Kimberly's Incredible Story of Healing 08.05.2026 47mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Kimberly Korn, three years after she first came to my Omega retreat thinking she was walking into a spa weekend, and instead found herself face-to-face with the inner work that would change everything. Kimberly shares the full story of what brought her there: a lifetime of symptoms that seemed disconnected on the surface, from childhood asthma and eczema to OCD, anorexia, debilitating migraines, chronic neck and back pain, severe GI issues, anxiety, unexplained swelling, and deep trauma. What she found through JournalSpeak was not another way to manage her life, but a way to finally meet the feelings she had spent decades suppressing, and to understand how her nervous system had been carrying what she was never allowed to express. This conversation is a “where are they now” that will move you deeply. Kimberly shares how, since that retreat, she has remained chronic symptom-free, no longer relies on the medications she once needed, and has rebuilt an entire life from the inside out. She returned to her music career after believing that part of her life was over, and she is now a full-time songwriter with almost 50 placements in film and television. Even more beautifully, she talks about how this work transformed her as a mother, a wife, a creative person, and a human being who is no longer living in fear. This is a story about chronic pain recovery, nervous system healing, trauma, motherhood, creativity, and what becomes possible when we stop abandoning ourselves and finally decide to live. Omg. This one got me in the heart. XOXO n. SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEW SUBSTACK!

From the Vault: Vertigo and Migraines... REAL TIME HEAL with Raye Zaragoza 06.05.2026 1h 11mLearn how to JournalSpeak : https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Singer/Songwriter Raye Zaragoza contacted me for a Real Time Heal after debilitating Migraines, Vertigo and light sensitivity brought her to her knees, sometimes literally. In her darkest hour, she found the work of Dr. Sarno, and then me. I am humbled by the privilege to help people awaken to their full potential, and at the tender age of 26, Raye is doing just that. Although she has come so far, fear is still her greatest adversary (we can all relate!) and we discuss this as well as deep inner child work which is life changing in the most profound way.

Bedbound with Chronic Head Pain: JournalSpeak Saved Bethany's Life 01.05.2026 39mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak In this moving conversation, I sit down with Bethany Williams, whose journey through chronic pain will stop you in your tracks. More importantly, it will remind you what is truly possible. After being diagnosed with New Daily Persistent Headache in her early 20s, Bethany experienced a devastating relapse that left her in unimaginable, 11-out-of-10 pain. Bedbound for a year and a half, unable to tolerate light, sound, or even basic daily life, she reached a point where her future felt completely uncertain. And yet, what unfolds from there is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the profound capacity for healing when we begin to understand the mind-body connection. Bethany shares the turning point that shifted everything - when, after exhausting every medical avenue, she reluctantly explored MindBody work and began to see change. Using JournalSpeak alongside EMDR, nervous system regulation, and radical acceptance, she slowly moved out of survival mode and into a life that once again felt possible. We talk about the real resistance people feel when first introduced to this work (and why that resistance makes perfect sense), the role of trauma and the nervous system in chronic symptoms, and what it actually looks like to reclaim your agency when you’ve spent so long feeling powerless. What makes this conversation so powerful is not just that Bethany got her life back - it’s how her entire relationship to herself transformed along the way. We explore the concept of the “last 10%” of symptoms, why letting go of the need to be symptom-free is often the final key, and how radical acceptance creates the space for true healing. If you’ve ever felt like you are too far gone, too sick, or too hopeless to recover, this episode is here to meet you exactly where you are, and to show you that there is a way forward. Join us!

Everyone Is Talking About Ozempic and GLP-1s. This Is the Conversation We’re Missing. 24.04.2026 46mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Today I want to bring a conversation from Substack into the podcast because the response has been impossible to ignore. Everywhere we look right now, people are talking about Ozempic and other GLP-1s—whether they work, whether they’re safe, whether they’re a miracle or a problem. But what I'm noticing is that almost all of these conversations are happening on the surface. In this episode, I’m not here to tell you what to do with your body or whether these medications are right for you. I want us to slow this down and ask a different question—one that matters just as much, if not more. Through the lens of MindBody medicine and nervous system regulation, I think it's essential we explore what it really means to be “small” or “large,” and why so many of us carry a deeply unconscious fear of taking up space—not just physically, but energetically, emotionally, and in our lives. If we don’t bring awareness to this fear, we risk solving the wrong problem, no matter how powerful the solution looks. This episode is an invitation to pause, get curious, and begin to make the unconscious conscious—so we can make choices from a place of freedom, not fear. Join us! XOOX n.

Together, we explore how fear, control, and the nervous system interact in ways that can keep us stuck, even when we’re doing everything “right.” This conversation is about so much more than symptoms. It’s about learning to loosen the grip of outcome-dependence, understanding what true safety feels like in the body, and beginning to live with more curiosity and self-compassion. Marisa’s honesty makes this a deeply relatable and moving session — and her willingness to go there in real time opens the door for all of us. Marisa’s new book, Waiting for Dawn (April 2026), offers solace for anyone living in uncertainty — longing for pain to subside, grief to soften, and healing to unfold. If this conversation resonates, her work will meet you in a very real and meaningful way. Join us! XOOX n.

Even before we met, Bri was able to completely eliminate her IC, Pelvic Pain, and related issues with her JournalSpeak work, but her stubborn GI issues and food fear persisted. As we spoke, it became apparent what is actually making her stomach sick: unprocessed grief. We all have it. Join us and witness Bri's incredible bravery and humanity.

The Core Wounds That Drive Chronic Pain, Anxiety & Self-Sabotage (And How to Heal Them) 10.04.2026 48mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Today I want to talk about something foundational—something that sits underneath so many of the patterns you’re struggling with, whether that’s chronic pain, anxiety, relationship issues, or just feeling stuck in the same loops. We’re diving into core wounds: those deep emotional imprints formed in childhood that shape how you see yourself, others, and the world. These wounds don’t mean something is wrong with you. They’re simply information. But when they go unexamined, they can quietly drive your reactions, your choices, and even your physical symptoms—like you’re looking at life through a lens you don’t even realize you’re wearing. In this episode, I walk you through the most common core wounds—“I’m not good enough,” “I’m unlovable,” “I don’t matter,” “I’m not safe,” and more—and how they show up in your adult life as perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-doubt, chronic symptoms, and emotional overwhelm. Most importantly, I’ll show you how to begin working with them using JournalSpeak and compassionate self-inquiry. This is not about fixing yourself. It’s about understanding yourself deeply enough that your nervous system can finally feel safe—and that’s where real healing begins.

Decades of Migraines, Fibromyalgia, IBS, Brain Fog and More - A Physician Heals Herself 03.04.2026 58mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ LEARN HOW: https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak In this episode, I sit down with Anna Winfield, a pediatrician, BreakAwake Support Circle expert, and a beautiful example of what becomes possible when we begin to understand chronic symptoms through the lens of the nervous system. Anna shares her powerful story of living for decades with migraines, fibromyalgia, pelvic pain, IBS, brain fog, and so many other diagnoses that never fully explained what was happening. After a concussion sent her into a major flare, one unexpected conversation with a rheumatology nurse practitioner opened the door to a completely different understanding: that her pain might not be coming from structural damage at all, but from TMS. What followed was a profound shift in how Anna understood her body, her history, and her path to healing. Together, we talk about the deep overlap between medicine and MindBody healing, the resistance so many of us feel when it comes to JournalSpeak and inner child work, and why symptoms so often speak the language of what we have not yet learned to hear. Anna brings such a thoughtful and moving perspective as both a physician and a person in recovery, and we explore everything from the limits of the traditional medical model to the power of self-compassion, emotional truth, and nervous system regulation. This is a rich conversation about what healing really looks like, how our old stories live in the body, and why the pain may be the biggest littlest part of the journey. XOOX n.

Why Other People Trigger You—and What It Reveals About Your Own Healing 27.03.2026 45mLearn how to JournalSpeak ➡️ LEARN HOW: https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak Today’s conversation grew out of a powerful question from our Heal with Nicole community about victim mindset, self-compassion, and the internal conflict so many of us carry without even realizing it. I use this post as a doorway into a much bigger discussion about the stories we tell ourselves, the shame we attach to certain parts of who we are, and the hidden reasons we judge other people so harshly. I also share a formative college exercise that has stayed with me for decades, one that reveals something profound: the qualities that most trigger us in others often point to disowned parts of ourselves. When we begin to understand that, rather than judge it, we open the door to real compassion. This episode is ultimately about the conflict that lives inside us and how that conflict fuels TMS, anxiety, pain, and chronic nervous system dysregulation. I talk about why it is the conflict that creates so much suffering, how self-judgment quietly fills the emotional reservoir, and why self-compassion is not optional in this work. I also walk you through a simple but powerful self-compassion practice you can begin using right away, and I invite you into a JournalSpeak exercise that can help you uncover what is really being activated beneath your resentment, rigidity, or shame. If you’ve ever wondered why certain people get under your skin, why you are so hard on yourself, or why your symptoms flare when you feel emotionally torn, this episode will give you a completely new way to understand yourself.
