Feminist Wellness — Alternative Health
Feminist Wellness

You weren’t born anxious, depleted, and second-guessing yourself. You were taught to be.

The Feminist Wellness podcast is where nervous system science meets the truth nobody wants to say out loud: most of what you think is “self-care” is just performing wellness while your body stays stuck in survival mode.

Host Béa Victoria Albina – NP, life coach, and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner – breaks down the codependent, perfectionist, and people-pleasing habits that keep you trapped in what she calls Emotional Outsourcing™: constantly looking outside yourself for permission, validation, and proof that you’re enough.

This isn’t another show about bubble baths and boundaries. It’s about understanding why your body says yes when you mean no, why rest feels impossible, and how to stop treating your own needs like an inconvenience.
If you’re done white-knuckling your way through life, performing okayness while feeling like you’re constantly failing some invisible test, this show will help you see what’s actually happening – and what becomes possible when you stop abandoning yourself to please everyone else.

Show notes

Tune in today as I show you how you can engage your brain to decide that it’s not a problem if people aren’t happy with you, and how you get to retrain your brain to understand that it doesn’t mean anything about you that someone else might have a negative thought. You get to remember that other people are allowed to have their reactions, and you can choose new thoughts to radically love and accept yourself every day.

Show notes

Listen in today as I invite you to make becoming anti-racist a practice, and encourage you to come to this work with self-compassion and gentleness for yourself. Shame and guilt are never useful, and showing up however you can will help you bring consciousness to your internal biases, push you out of your comfort zone, and take action.
