Episode 422 - Chronic Pain with Lyndsay Soprano

October 9, 2026 The Jōrni Podcast Episode 422 - Chronic Pain with Lyndsay Soprano This episode contains adult language and subject matter, and some listeners may be triggered by this content. Listener discretion is advised. Life can pivot in a direction we never saw coming, and living with chronic pain takes more creativity and honesty than anyone prepares us for. The spontaneous drive or the evening out turns into a calculation of what it will cost us afterward, and how much of the following week we are willing to spend recovering from it. The confusing contradiction of grieving the person we used to be and the gratitude we try to find every day for what we have left can isolate us from our friends and loved ones. When we share our journeys and become part of a community that empowers us, we can take back the pieces we lost in our pain story. LYNDSAY SOPRANO Lyndsay Soprano is a bold, unfiltered voice in the chronic pain and trauma recovery space—transforming unimaginable suffering into unstoppable advocacy. She’s the founder and host of Giving Pain Purpose (formerly known as The Pain Game Podcast), a raw and riveting show that dives into the realities of living in—and rising from—chronic pain, trauma, and invisible illness. Diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) in 2017—one of the most painful conditions on the McGill Pain Scale—Lyndsay is also a survivor of sexual, emotional, and physical abuse, infertility, depression, anxiety, and divorce. She’s walked through hell more than once—and set up a mic right in the middle of it. Her mantra, “The only way out...is through,” isn’t just podcast fodder—it’s a way of life. After years lost to misdiagnoses and failed surgeries, she took healing into her own hands, choosing a trauma-informed, integrative approach that blends grit, grace, and humor.
