Why This Conversation Matters
Pain, tension, stress, and low energy often get blamed on muscles, joints, or “getting older.” But fascia — the connective tissue that holds everything together — tells a different story. When it tightens, dehydrates, or stores unprocessed stress, the entire body feels it.

Aisha Rodrigue has helped tens of thousands unwind pain, emotional tension, and chronic stress through simple fascial maneuvers. Her work blends tissue health, nervous-system regulation, and everyday movement in a way anyone can apply.

In This Episode, We Cover:
• What fascia actually is — and why it behaves like the body’s operating system
• How stress, emotions, and experience get stored in connective tissue
• Why dehydration makes fascia tighten and create pain
• How simple maneuvers can instantly calm the nervous system
• The connection between fascia, safety, and emotional release
• How environment, light, breath, and grounding shape tissue health
• Aisha’s personal journey from four back surgeries → pain-free living
• Why healing accelerates once the body feels safe and stress drops
