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.

New episodes weekly. Start anywhere.

Ep #8: Analysis Paralysis Apr 11, 2019

Show notes

Today I'm talking all about analysis paralysis and the perfectionism at its root. In reality, there is no perfect anything, and the story that perfection is possible keeps us from actually making progress on our goals. In this episode, I'm sharing my tips for breaking free from analysis paralysis, the power of planning ahead, and how overwhelm manifests in your body. And we'll talk about how you can heal yourself one step at a time by committing to yourself in small ways every day.

Ep #6: What Other People Think of You Is None of Your Business Mar 28, 2019

Show notes

Many of us assume that other people are judging us and we try to conform ourselves to their opinions about who we should be. In this week's episode, I want to talk about why we do that, why it's a recipe for discontentment, and how we can start to catch ourselves when we judge ourselves and others. Ultimately, you are the only person you can control and the only person you need to please.
