FWTW S5E07 Meds Did NOTHING! Alisha Kapani’s Mind‑Body Healing & Quantum Physics | w/ Barbie Moreno

If you’ve spent thousands on meds, therapy, and “miracle” modalities and still feel depressed, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale. In this episode, Alisha Kapani shares how years of debilitating depression, failed antidepressants, and endless treatments led her to mind–body medicine and Theta healing. She breaks down why suppressed emotions, unprocessed trauma, and misaligned beliefs can keep you stuck, and how learning to listen to your body can finally start to dissolve the heaviness. We talk about expansion vs. contraction, how to feel triggers in your body, why some therapy keeps you managing instead of healing, and simple awareness practices you can start today. If you’ve ever wondered “What if nothing is wrong with me, and my body is just trying to get my attention?”, this one’s for you.

FWTW S5E05 Success Nearly Killed Me! Beatriz Fritschler’s Brain Aneurysm Wake-Up | w Barbie Moreno

What happens when your body has been screaming at you for years — and you keep pushing through anyway? In this episode of From Wounds to Wisdom, Barbie Moreno sits down with wellness coach and aneurysm survivor Beatriz Fritschler to talk about what it really costs women to be “strong,” “successful,” and “high‑achieving” at the expense of their health. We get into how trauma, people‑pleasing, and perfectionism show up as weight gain, burnout, and terrifying health crises; why so many driven women disconnect from their bodies and intuition; and what it actually looks like to build a fail‑inclusive, shame‑free approach to wellness, boundaries, and leadership. If you’ve ever over‑functioned or over‑worked until your body couldn’t take it anymore, this conversation will feel like a permission slip to do life differently.
