In this powerful and deeply human episode, Virginia shares her journey from a wheelchair, chronic pain, and total hopelessness to becoming a licensed mental health therapist, mindset coach, positive psychology practitioner, and wellness master who helps others rebuild their lives with intention and joy.</p> <p>G-Rex and Dirty Skittles talk with Virginia about the moment a quiet inner voice told her, <em>“Listen to what your body is telling you,”</em> and how following that intuition — even when it contradicted medical advice — led her to design her own healing plan fueled by perseverance, movement, gratitude, and nature. She opens up about swimming inch by inch, trusting her instincts, and refusing to let outside forces define her future.</p> <p>Together, they explore the emotional exhaustion of hopelessness, the power of small wins, and why joy is something you intentionally create rather than stumble into. Virginia explains how she now guides clients through trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions using holistic, mind-body practices rooted in freedom, joy, and self-trust.</p> <p>This episode is a reminder that healing isn’t linear — it’s a choice, a practice, and an act of courage. If you’ve ever felt stuck, defeated, or like your life has shrunk around you, Virginia’s story is the spark you’ve been waiting for.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> <em>mindset coach, trauma recovery, emotional healing, chronic illness resilience, hope after despair, mind-body wellness, positive psychology, gratitude practice, anxiety tools, depression support, nature healing, movement therapy, rebuilding your life, personal transformation, resilience stories</em></p> <hr> <h3></h3> <h3><strong>Meet Our Guest — Virginia Oman</strong></h3> <p>Virginia Oman, LCMHC, NCPT, is a licensed clinical mental health therapist, mindset coach, personal trainer, and wellness master who helps people move from despair to joy-filled living.
