What to Do When Life Knocks You Down: Lessons in Resilience, Self-Care and Women's Mental Health
Updated: Jun 28, 2025
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by stress, hormones, or the pressure to hold it all together, you need to hear this.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the complexities of women’s mental health, burnout, and the healing journey, especially if you or someone you love has ever faced a physical or emotional wake-up call.
Today, Natalie sits down with Helene Beck, host of the Coming from the Heart podcast, to pull back the curtain on the connection between physical and mental health. Helene’s story—marked by debilitating vertigo, the pressures of parenthood, and the challenges of perimenopause—shines a light on how often we, especially women, keep pushing forward until our bodies force us to stop.
Women's Mental Health
You’ll hear Helene’s raw account of moving from isolation and illness to building a community based on vulnerability, self-compassion, and acceptance. Helene opens up about the power of realizing you’re not alone, discovering support, and letting yourself heal, without flipping a magical switch overnight.
"What I can say now is the version of me that I have now is pretty incredible. I'm happy with who I am." – Helene Beck

This episode will give you hope, practical advice, and the reassurance that healing—mental, physical, or emotional—is a journey, not a sprint.
Listen now and join the conversation about self-care, community, and the courage it takes to come from the heart—no matter where you are in your journey.
