What if your body is listening to the stories you tell about your life? In this profound and heart-opening conversation, Krystal sits down with Dr. Karen Parker — best-selling author of Quantum Wellness and creator of Quantum Human Design and the Quantum Alignment System™ — to explore the intersection of narrative, biology, and energy.
