Throw Some Ass/Free the Mind: How Sophie Hawley-Weld (SOFI TUKKER) Beat Chronic Migraine & Back Pain
Sophie Hawley-Weld, of the iconic musical duo SOFI TUKKER, suffered from chronic migraines and back pain that was so severe it jeopardized her thriving career and livelihood. Sophie’s journey, like those of many other chronic pain sufferers, took many twists and turns. It wasn’t until Sophie learned how to meld a brain-based approach with body-based modalities that she was finally able to find relief.
On this episode of Like Mind, Like Body, Sophie shares her journey into and out of chronic pain, and how these experiences became a source of inspiration for SOFI TUKKER's new hit song, “Throw Some Ass.” Tune in to hear Sophie’s story and find out how the ‘booty’ keeps the score.

I like the idea of “threat” instead of “stress”
This is a great interview, and i finally understand Journal Speak and am ready for journaling after a year doing the work ❤
We're so glad this was helpful! Expressive writing is such a powerful tool for this work ❤️
Is myofascial pain syndrome, the same thing as neuroplastic pain?? because I’ve been reading books and studying this neuroplastic pain in the mind-body connection, but I find it’s not really helping my myofacial pain disorder
Hi there! Myofascial pain syndrome has been shown to have neuroplastic components, which vary in how much they impact each individual. Here's a (very dense) academic article on this subject if it's helpful! pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10059732/
What an amazing story and interview! Thank you for sharing
Thank you, this is a really nice conversation that honors the journey
I HAVE TRIED TO HELP PEOPLE BUT NOBODY WILL LISTEN.SO MANY PEOPLE WHO I KNOW GOING UNDER THE KNIFE. ONE DOCTOR TOLD A WOMAN I KNOW THAT THE NERVES IN HER BACK WERE TANGLED UP..
You can't force anyone to believe....I wish we could! I'm on the journey myself but also do some pain coaching, and there is so much variability in people's readiness to hear. All you can hope is that you plant a seed.... It's not your job to save everybody (and that's coming from someone who has to say that daily to remind myself not to try 😅)
I WENT TO BED READY TO GIVE UP. EVERYTHING HURT. I WOKE UP AND NOTHING HURT. GIVE YOUR UNCONSCIOUS TIME TO STOP THE PAIN.
You know it works when you fix one part of your body and your brain picks another part of your body to hurt. Now you know its in your head.
I have trigeminal neuralgia atypical from dental surgery. I’ve been working with my neurologist for over 15 years she never said a word about this she along with the dentist and other neurologist all said I will be in this pain forever she said my brain is used to the pain it’s a circuit issue and I will never go away and it doesn’t respond very well to medication it just takes the mild edge off I would probably not be here if I didn’t have it. It’s trickling way too slow into the medical community especially old-fashioned doctors.Any doctors tell you your nerve has been damaged you believe them. 20 years later I’m now learning all this stuff geez I could just cry a river. The only way to diagnose atypical type 2 trigeminal neuralgia is by symptoms. Unless someone knows something the TN doctors and neurologists I have seen that’s different. I got an MRI of my brain nothing remarkable. I’ve been hypersensitive since I was a kid, clothes were uncomfortable my mom had to buy me everything all cotton when I was a baby everything had to be superstars soft and still does many years later. I had to have all the tags off my clothes I still do, I was sensitive to sound if my mom vacuumed I was a wreck still hate the vacuum noise or any kind of noise outside construction related I could go on and on I think I’m just have a propensity for all this stuff. My dentist said I never should’ve done the surgery on you you already had chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia you were too sick and hyper sensitive but oh well don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
Nicole Sachs you are awesome, How wonderful that so many young people have access to this information that was not there in the 90s when I was young and suffering. I am happy that so many young people have been able to get on with their lives.I can’t believe she’s 49 in this video I was thinking 32 33 max👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤❤
I agree I wish she was around in the mid 90s when so many health issues hitting me so hard and there was just no information Internet just began there were only depressing yahoos support groups or face-to-face depressing groups talking about holistic doctors regular doctors people dropping thousands on supplements taking drugs that didn’t work. Younger people are so lucky to have you too God bless TH-cam and Facebook
I watched the video clip of the song, but I’m not sure what it has to do with chronic pain? Am I missing something? Great conversation though :-)
If you have time, check out the full video of the song! The beginning in particular connects strongly to Sophie's chronic pain journey: th-cam.com/video/nRpCivrtmXM/w-d-xo.html
love u all @curablehealth - s
Thank you so much for sharing your story with all of us!
Thank you for sharing your genuine dialogue about your journey and continued, deliberate felt-sense of safety self-care. Super inspiring! 🎉💕🙌🏽
Thank you, this is excellent ,however you never came back around to talking about the fight response as you mentioned you would early on. I really wanted to hear about this. Have you addressed it in any other videos?
I’m a registered nurse but more importantly a chronic pain sufferer and I am so angry to hear how she was basically told she was being a baby!! I actually felt the anger in my body and heart to hear this!!
37:52 start of compassion meditation. Lots of love
Do you recommend a girdle support? What do I look for buying one? This is a valuable video and I'm going to purchase the Curable app .
Look for evidence that your symptoms are not from an acute injury. Does the pain shift or move or get worse/better with time of day or with increased stress?
Does this method work on Morton’s Nueroma
I read a book called “ The Artist Way” years back . A very similar practice in journaling is recommended.
One of your better interviews!!! Actually get into solutions and not all the problem
Thank you for your work! You are talking directly to us in this deep chronic pain, we are listening, bless you for caring
I’ve had a chronic migraine back of head pain for years , I don’t understand how to get out of pain
This man's story was more like mine than any testimony on healing I've heard. Very helpful❤!
Lovely clinicians…my fear went down just listening to them…
Thank you for this heart-wrenching story of a medical system that views the patient as a collection of broken body parts and not holistically as a complex conscious human being with a unique identity. "At least, do no harm" has been discarded. Lara's resilience and determination to heal is inspiring!
Dealing with erythromelalgia like symptoms myself (no diagnosis) and a little disappointed its disappearance for Jodie wasn't a direct part of her mindbody journey but 😭 it still could be for me i suppose
Thank you for a very inspiring interview, which gives me a lot of hope.
Priceless ino, thank you!❤
Great interview, loving your work along with Dr Howard Shubiner and Alan Gordon. I had a mental emotional and physical breakdown 6 years ago which left me with frozen shoulder and sciatica. Had to retire at 50 as I became so disabled, went down the western medicine route and finally diagnosed with FND. The medications they gave me made me worse. Was housebound for 2 years and by chance found Dr Sarno and I’m around 50% better by using mindbody techniques and have listened to lots of podcasts like this and they have helped enormously, so thank you so much for all the work you do, I can tell you I would still be in chronic pain taking Tramadol, Gabapentin, Zopiclone, codiiene every day 🙏❤️
This is eye-opening, inspiring, useful, excellent. I am so grateful. This came at the right time in my life. I'm pumped & empowered & determined to actively work on chronic back pain which is already getting better!! Thank you again. Thank you, Curable 🙏
❤
my PT, Stephanie at Summit Strength in Lee’s Summit, MO turned me on to Dr Sarno’s books and just talking to her about some areas of emotional pain brought immediate relief for my shoulder pain though now a year later, I am experiencing some pain in my hands and some tennis elbow so I’m continuing reading the book, the Divided, Mind, and delving more deeply into Curable and your online interviews.
Thanks
Great to here from someone with Spondylolisthesis. I also have this condition. I am just finding out about Dr Sarnos teaching and have finally some hope. However i find it a bit of a stumbling block when it starts by saying rule out structual issues as mine is a structusl issue. I still want to follow this path you are describing but dont know how to get passed knowing the pain i am experiencing is from an actual condition. I am hoping i am not excluded from this hope of leaving my pain behind. Have tried everything else...no one can help me. This seems almost too good to be true but really feels right to me. How do i get passed that first hurdle of having a structusl issue??
Great story tellers and openness, Ty!
You are doing something amazing, that in itself, growing is healing!
Toward the end of the video, where they talk about the importance of rest, it made me think of an interview with actor Jim Carrey who said that if you are DEPRESSED, it means your body has a need for DEEP REST.
🤲🕊🤲sharing
I love Nicole's work and Nicole. "I hate being a Mother" to any Mother struggling with TMS - Hello !! "and I thought very deep down it - having children of my own- was going to heal all of the pain of my childhood. " how many of us is this true for . Thank U Nicole .
I LOVE being a mother.... issue is I could never be the mother I wanted to be and only got one shot at it. That wound is deep.
This is wonderful, Jodie! Thank you for sharing your experiences and perspectives. May you continue to have great health!
So encouraging.
Absolutely amazing woman
Really good video
best episode
I hate talking about my feelings
It was good.
Thanks for the meditation Dr. Shubiner.
