S13E5 - What Is Embodiment? How Embodiment Found Me (Jenna's Story)
How Embodiment Found Me (And Changed Everything) Embodiment has a way of finding us, whispering quietly and planting a curiosity inside us—often long before we even know what the word means. That was true for me. Back when I was a hospital pharmacist, I had no concept of "embodiment." But something in me longed for more. My body was trying to tell me that what I was living… wasn't it.

Plus I feel like I have this conversation
S8E8 - The #1 Embodiment Skill is…
If you desire to be more embodied, more of the time, the #1 skill to develop is sensitivity. Sensitivity is a skill many of us were never taught, nor taught to value. Yet in dampening our ability to feel, sense & perceive the textures, sensations & knowings of our inner world, many of us have (inadvertently) left our bodies. My journey back home to the body began with re-sensitizing my body. Tu
S8E7 - Wealth Embodiment Flow™ with Victoria Washington
What kind of wealth identity do you hold? Right now are you feeling scarce or secure? Earning 7 figures, or working on miraculously manifesting your wealth? Today on the podcast we're exploring somatic financial healing with Victoria Washington, founder of Wealth Embodiment Flow™. As the first woman in my lineage to steward large volumes of wealth (generationally, wealth has always rested in t
S8E6 - Embodied Flow with Tara Judelle
One would assume that yoga classes (where we do asanas, or postures) should be embodied. Given the deep spiritual roots of yoga from various Indian philosophies & teachers, you'd expect yoga to be something that bought you deeper into inhabiting and expressing yourself fully (my definition of embodiment). Except I frequently find myself in yoga classes lacking that resonance. Perhaps they are mo
S8E5 - Polyvagal-informed Somatic & Dance/Movement Therapy with Amber Elizabeth Gray
The first time I read about Polyvagal Theory, so much made sense. The idea that "stress" isn't just all adrenaline-running-around-drama, but can also also/often show up as frozen-shut-down-numbness really hit home. I feel so many of us have constant moderate-grade stress in our lives that just leaves us feeling… numb. Understanding Polyvagal Theory (PVT) helped me to understand, neurologically,
S8E4 - From Linear Time to Sacred Time with Qoya Founder Rochelle Schieck
The single biggest hurdle to doing more embodied movement practice, for me personally, is the tight grip of urgency I often feel around time. Today on the podcast, I'm chatting with Rochelle Schieck, founder of the Qoya movement method. A big part of our conversation is exploring how we unwind the urgency of linear time & use the body as a portal to soul time. Rochelle & I have very different felt
S8E3 - The Human Method: A Somatic Nervous System Balm with Nahid de Belgeonne
How can we be fully human? Seems like an obvious question, but when the demands (stress/trauma) of our culture & lived experience asks us to show up more like a machine than an organic being, it's a valid one. Nahid de Belgeonne, the founder of The Human Method, believes "our modern times are relentless and our nervous system just isn't built for this kind of onslaught." So how can we calm ou
S8E2 Sensual Embodied Dance | Embodied Movement Series with Holly Wodetzki
For the first few years of my personal development & embodiment journey I was focusing on everything I needed to fix. There was always some mindset, funky feeling, boundary, or upper limit that needed solving. After a while, I realized that, while the skills to meet these undesirable were essential, they were not the only embodiment skills I yearned for. What I truly wanted was to be ravished b
