Hi, I'm Dr. Sonny Miles, and I believe your life IS the medicine.
I know what it means to live in a body that doesn’t follow the rules.
For years, as an integrative and palliative care physician, healer, and yoga teacher I've helped people with chronic and mysterious illnesses navigate their unique healing journeys. I've walked alongside them, listened to their stories, and witnessed their incredible resilience.
And through this work, I've discovered that true wellbeing comes from living a life that aligns with your deepest values and needs.
Healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about building a life that supports you, exactly as you are.

Your Life is the Medicine with Dr. Sonny Miles
Reclaiming the Phenomenal Woman: Unlearning Conditioning for Radical Self-Love
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this powerful episode of "Your Life Is The Medicine," Dr. Sonny Miles reflects on International Women's Day to explore the extraordinary courage and resilience of women everywhere. Drawing from her transformative experience as a Peace Corps volunteer in rural Paraguay to her current work as an integrative medicine physician, Dr. Sonny discusses the hidden costs of being a woman in a patriarchal world. She dives into the "somatics of patriarchy"—the ways in which societal conditioning, hypervigilance, and the pressure to perform show up as physical symptoms in women’s bodies. This episode is a deep honoring of the invisible labor women perform and an invitation to see your own strength with fresh eyes.
Listeners will gain profound insights into the connection between emotional well-being and chronic health issues like autoimmune disease, fatigue, and anxiety. Dr. Sonny breaks down how the "male gaze" and a lack of safety can shape a woman’s nervous system from a young age, leading to a lifetime of "reading the room" and striving for worth through productivity. You will learn the importance of nervous system regulation, the gift of midlife as a time for unlearning, and how to begin the journey of reclaiming unconditional self-love and authentic freedom.
Whether you are navigating health struggles, feeling the exhaustion of high-functioning anxiety, or seeking a deeper mind-body connection, this conversation offers a supportive space for reflection and healing. Dr. Sonny invites you to celebrate your phenomenal self and move beyond the "hidden curriculum" of how women are expected to be. Tune in and subscribe to "Your Life Is The Medicine" on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite platform to join a movement of women unlearning the old narratives and reclaiming their true medicine.
