In this powerful and heart-opening episode, I sit down with my dear friend Chrissy — a woman whose generosity and spirit changed my life forever. Chrissy is not only a dedicated student at Functional Yoga Medicine, she’s also the living donor who gave me her kidney.

Together, we share the evolution of our friendship, from casual connection to sacred sisterhood, and how our community held space for both of us through one of the most vulnerable and transformative chapters of our lives.
We dive into:

- How FYM created a safe space for breath, embodiment, and ease
- Chrissy’s journey from effortful fitness to intuitive movement
- What inspired her to say yes to becoming a living donor
- How her relationship to her body, breath, and purpose has evolved
- The power of women showing up for each other
- How healing happens in community — not in isolation

Whether you’re navigating chronic illness, craving deeper community, or simply want to witness a story of love in action, this conversation is for you.

For years, I believed yoga would save me. And for a while — it did.

Until it didn’t.

In this episode, Dr. Connie Cheung opens up about the point in her journey when her beloved practice stopped working — when meditation became too hard, movement felt disconnected, and her body could no longer be “fixed” through willpower. What followed was a radical redefinition of what healing really is.

You’ll hear how Functional Yoga Medicine™ was born — not as another method, but as a reclamation. And how most people are practicing yoga with a nervous system still stuck in survival… which means their practice becomes performance, not presence.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right” things and still stuck — this episode is your invitation to begin again, with your body as your guide.

If you’ve been feeling stuck — like your body isn’t responding, your efforts aren’t working, and your mind keeps spinning — you’re not broken. You’re in survival mode.

In this episode, Dr. Connie Cheung decodes how your nervous system silently drives your habits, health, and healing — and why most wellness approaches fail because they ignore this root-level operating system.

You’ll learn the 4 Nervous System Archetypes, how to recognize them in yourself and others, and what it really takes to reset your body and mind from the inside out.
