My Healing Journey Part 2: Unexpected Challenges and How We Rise From Them

Welcome to episode 12!

On this episode of The Nest Podcast, I’m joined by my friend Marisa Shearer as my co-host, as I share Part 2 of my healing journey. Marisa and I speak candidly and I don’t hold back as I share honestly about my health journey these last few years as I’ve healed myself from Epstein Barr, debilitating fatigue and uncovered the root cause of unexpected weight-gain. I share what I did to help heal myself PLUS I share a new way to view the challenges that come our way as we heal. 

In this episode we cover:

  • Healing Epstein Barr – alternative & natural methods 
  • Chronic fatigue & living in a way that embraces the divine feminine 
  • The divine masculine & the divine feminine as opposites & how we need the balance of both 
  • How to embrace a season of rest in our lives 
  • Toxicity & weight loss resistance 
  • When calories in vs calories out no longer work 
  • Mindset & how important it is for the healing journey 
  • The universal pattern of transformation that we as humans experience 
  • How life is always inviting us to the adventure of transformation 
  • The journey of changing negative beliefs & rising strong
  • Making the connection between extra weight & toxicity levels 
  • Neuroplasticity & rewiring our brains by creating different perceptions & narratives that foster healing & positive change
  • The miracles that happen when we choose to partner with our bodies versus work against them

hey there,

I'm Maryska.

I’m a naturopathic doctor who helps women address the root causes of weight gain, skin issues, hormonal imbalance, fatigue, stress, and burnout by restoring the foundations that support healing — from nervous system regulation and circadian rhythm to metabolic balance, gut health, detoxification, ancestral nutrition, and the body’s natural ability to heal.


My work bridges naturopathic medicine, modern science, and ancient wisdom to help women live in rhythm with their bodies, nature, and inner knowing. This comes together in my signature methodology, The Art of Living — the foundation of all my programs and monthly membership.
