*If you are listening to this show after 02/25/25, this episode was a part of Uproot and Uplift (the previous show) - since then, there has been a rebrand. The information is still relevant to moms who lack support from their mothers to make peace with the past, build confidence in their present role, and break harmful generational patterns for the future.*

Welcome to the first episode of the "Chronic Pain Series"!

Are you battling chronic pain, desperate for relief, hopeless, anxious, depressed, and terrified of the future? You are not alone! Unfortunately, the incessant chase for relief is insatiable and destructive.

In this episode, Alyssa talks with the incredible Dr. Daren Brooks, founder of The Bridge Total Health Recovery Center. From the trenches of chronic pain and illness himself, Daren adresses the emotional turmoil that follows this chase. By flipping the switch, one can find liberation and peace in taking back the driver's seat of their life instead of remaining a passenger to their pain.

"All of those sensations that used to crush you regularly, you're like 'I know you...sit in the back!'"-Dr. Daren Brooks
