This podcast explores the space between physical anatomy and energetic intuition — where healing becomes something you actively participate in, not something done to you. Hosted by Osteopathic Manual Practitioner and Reiki Master Teacher, Alanna Crawford, The Summit Effect teaches you how to understand your body, trust your intuition, and reclaim your power in your own health journey and beyond. This isn’t about being “more spiritual” or chasing perfection — it’s about learning to SHOW UP as the truest expression of yourself and letting the ripple of that change everything.

Welcome back to The Summit Effect.

Funny enough, this episode drops on New Year’s Eve — a night basically synonymous with alcohol. So today, we’re diving straight into a question I get asked all the time… and one I personally wrestled with for years:
