It fails because we’ve misunderstood what healing actually requires. In this episode, Ian Clark sits down with somatic and detox practitioner Eva Hooft to explore why so many people burn out, crash, or feel worse after doing everything “right” for their health.

Together, they unpack why pushing the body too hard can backfire, why supplements can suddenly stop working, and why safety in the nervous system is a prerequisite for real recovery. This conversation goes beyond protocols and lab results and into the deeper layers of healing.

They also explore the importance of purpose, alignment, and meaning in health, and why healing often accelerates when people stop fighting their bodies and start cooperating with them.
