What happens when the pain and exhaustion isn’t “in your head” — but everyone tells you it is? In this powerful and validating episode of Surviving Toxic Relationships, Lizzie and Deana talk with Tami Stackelhouse, founder of the International Fibromyalgia Coaching Institute and host of The Fibromyalgia Podcast. Tami shares her deeply personal journey from being dismissed and misdiagnosed to finally understanding her chronic pain, and how trauma, stress, and fibromyalgia can feel like an invisible toxic relationship with your own body. She opens up about the emotional impact of medical gaslighting, mental health struggles, and the long road to reclaiming your power and trusting your body again. You’ll learn how to: ✨ Recognize the signs of medical gaslighting ✨ Understand the link between trauma, depression, and chronic pain ✨ Advocate for yourself after misdiagnosis ✨ Practice self-compassion and emotional healing ✨ Find validation and community through awareness 💜 Watch if you’ve ever felt dismissed, gaslit, or unseen — by others or by your own body. 🎧 Guest: Tami Stackelhouse 📚 Author, Fibromyalgia Coach & Founder, International Fibromyalgia Coaching Institute 🔗 Learn more: fibromyalgiapodcast.com Fibromyalgia Podcast® International Fibromyalgia Coaching Institute, LLC Get FREE fibromyalgia books and resources here 🎙️ Stay Connected with Us! 📺 Subscribe on YouTube: @survivingrelationships12 🎵 Follow us on TikTok: @thematadoras 🌐 Visit our website: survivingtoxicrelationships.org Contact us anytime at our email:
