Ever wonder the real reason autoimmune disease leaves you exhausted, overwhelmed, and unsure what to do to actually feel better?
Welcome to Autoimmune Health Secrets, the podcast revealing the smarter, simpler way to create habits that ease inflammation, boost energy, and bring back confidence in your health and life.
Hosted by Dr. Amy Behimer, a nationally board-certified health and wellness coach living with multiple autoimmune diagnoses—including MS—Amy shares the science, stories, and small steps that make big health changes feel good and last for good.

#98 | The Surprising Self-Care Habit That Can Rewire Self-talk And Boost Autoimmune Resilience
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Self-care doesn’t always look like slowing down. Sometimes it sounds like what you call yourself.
In this heartfelt conversation with Damian Washington, we explore identity, humor, and healing—starting with a surprisingly powerful habit: giving yourself a nickname. It’s more than cute. It rewires how you speak to yourself when things get hard.
You’ll learn:
- How self-talk impacts fatigue, confidence, and motivation
- Why playful language builds deeper self-trust
- What “champ,” “baby,” or “boss” can do for your nervous system
Press play and you might be shocked what changes when you choose your own nickname and use it today.

This podcast explores health and wellness through the lens of autoimmune disease—multiple sclerosis (MS) and others—diving into how challenges like fatigue, brain fog, flares, and other symptoms related to the nervous system, inflammation, and mitochondria can be supported by healthy habits in food, movement, sleep, and rest, while fostering consistency, effective self-care, and a resilient mindset. If you’ve read the bestseller Atomic Habits by James Clear and still don’t have the healthy habits you want, this show is for you. Adjacent to functional medicine, holistic health, the AIP diet, and the Wahls Protocol, the podcast offers guidance from a health and wellness coach to help those navigating chronic illness feel better and thrive.
