Healing doesn’t always feel good—and that might be a good thing. In this episode of the Healthful Pursuit Podcast, Leanne Vogel unpacks why real healing often comes with discomfort, self-doubt, and unexpected symptoms. From detox reactions to hormone rebalancing to emotional release, we explore why “getting worse before better” is sometimes part of the process. You’ll learn how to tell the difference between a healing crisis and something harmful, how to support your body through transitions, and how to trust your healing even when it feels messy. If you’ve ever felt discouraged on your health journey—this one’s for you.

In this episode, I take you inside my 7-day group trek through Torres del Paine in Patagonia with EcoCamp—over 80 miles of hiking, wild weather, and unforgettable views. While the trek itself was with a group, I traveled to Chile and continued on to Argentina solo. I’m sharing the full story: what I ate, how I trained, what I packed, what I wish I’d done differently, and how I managed to hike while sick. If you're dreaming of Patagonia or wondering what it’s like to take on the O Circuit as a solo female traveler, this one’s for you.
