I'm Jen Wilson, The Healing Rebel. Honest conversations about nervous system regulation, burnout, perimenopause, and the wellness industry I've spent 24+ years in. For firstborn daughters, born leaders, and capable women over 40 who are sick of being the one who holds it all together. We explore lymphatic drainage, fascia release, somatic work, and the lifestyle medicine pillars, while pushing back against the magic pills and quick fixes that don't deliver. Healing isn't linear. Neither is this podcast. RSSVERIFY
