Episode 128: The Exhaustion of Pain

What happens when you’re already drowning in chronic pain—and then life throws drywall, sawdust, and emotional chaos on top of it? In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano gets real about the mess behind the scenes: home renovation hell, relentless exhaustion, and the kind of stress that clings to your skin.

This isn’t a glamorized version of pushing through. It’s about those moments when everything feels too loud, too heavy, too much. Lyndsay opens up about the toll that physical pain takes when you’re not numbing it, and how hard it can be to walk away from things—even when they’re clearly not serving you. She shares what it’s like to live in a body that feels like a battleground, and how something as simple as a swim can feel like coming home.

More than anything, she talks about finding purpose inside the pain. The power of community. The reminder that you are not your diagnosis. And the importance of setting boundaries that protect your peace—especially when life feels like a construction zone.

This one’s for anyone who feels like their body is breaking and their life is a little too chaotic to keep pretending everything’s fine.
Tune in if you’re craving honesty, connection, and a little more room to breathe.
