On The Soul Mirror, hosted by Shreya, we slow down and ask the deeper question: why do the same struggles keep repeating, even when we’re “doing all the right things”? Guest Kathryn Sforcina shares a grounded, whole-person view of healing that’s less about chasing the next method—and more about reclaiming your agency.

This episode is for anyone exhausted by self-improvement, chronic patterns, or the sense that life keeps “replaying the same lesson.” You’ll leave with a gentler framework for understanding symptoms as signals, and a simple practice to return to self-compassion when you feel overwhelmed.

Kathryn Sforcina is the founder of Wild Tribes and Transforming Tribes. She works with shamanic energy medicine and wrote Bringing the Lost Parts of Me Home. She’s also writing her next book on what keeps people stuck.

7. 25:10 Setbacks without shame: the messy truth of real healing

1. Notice where you’re looking outside yourself for rescue—and gently return to agency.
2. Track repeating patterns across life areas (partner, boss, body) as clues, not flaws.
3. Heal in “layers,” not silos—spiritual growth without embodiment still creates imbalance.
4. Use symptoms as communication: What is this asking me to hear?
5. Start small: hold your own hand, breathe, and practice daily self-kindness.
