Why do we get sick? Illnesses and Our bodies | After Hours (013)

Is being sick a sign of weakness?

In this episode of After Hours, Christian and I dive into the uncomfortable yet empowering truth about illness. We often think of getting sick as something that happens to us, a random strike of bad luck, but the body is always talking long before symptoms appear. Illness is not just an event. It is a signal, a consequence, a pattern that has been forming quietly in the background. When we understand that, we stop feeling helpless and start seeing the early clues our body leaves for us.

We also explore why modern life makes this harder. Most people are juggling work, parenting, stress and poor sleep while living in an environment that constantly inflames the body. When you are tired or run-down or eating on the go, the immune system becomes reactive instead of responsive. Christian and I talk about the difference between fighting an illness and supporting the body so it does not need to fight as often. We look at digestion, inflammation, gut health and how your daily choices either protect or pressure your system.

The heart of the episode is this message. Your body is not failing. It is adapting. Symptoms are not the enemy. They are the language of the body asking for help. When you understand the science behind immunity and inflammation you stop blaming yourself and start giving your body what it needs to repair and reset. Knowledge is power and in this conversation we show how small, intentional changes can shift your whole relationship with illness and your health.
