the short story
about
Hi, Savannah here:
I named this podcast after the phrase I had on repeat when people would ask how I was doing. I'd say: "I'm not good, but I'm getting better." I was in a dark place with chronic pain, multiple surgeries, and compounding traumas, trying to build a life in my twenties but barely able to take care of myself. I needed help with my health.
I was desperate for community and sought accessible, healing information. I found that the most influential and impactful help came from others sharing research, health tips, and personal testimony. Physical and mental hardships can make you feel so lonely, and I truly believe that some of the greatest healing comes from empathy and advice of others who have suffered themselves.
​
Whether you suffer from chronic pain, difficult diagnoses, mental or physical hardship--OR you're just looking to advance and enhance your health--welcome to a space that understands that health and healing is a constant practice, and that we are continually getting better.
​
Getting Better is a podcast and online resource for health and healing. It was born out of a necessity to heal and connect with others who were experiencing hardship in health. Here you will find resources mentioned on the podcast, community access for support and encouragement, and articles for health and healing.
​
You are not alone. Your life matters. Your healing matters.
