Running from Pain

Portrait of Genevieve Cheung standing outdoors on a quiet desert road at dusk, reflecting on transition and emotional healing.

– When Our Body Knows Before We Do

Sometimes we think we’ve moved on. We renovate, we rebuild, we stay busy.

But the body doesn’t forget what the mind postpones.

In this episode, I reflect on returning to Tuscany, rebuilding my home, and noticing how my skin began to react again. A quiet conversation about transition, independence, and how the body often knows before we do.

If this resonates, sit with it gently.
