    Ep 465 Beyond Inner Child Work: Meet Your Inner Teenager with Eliza Alloway

    The inner child gets a lot of attention in healing work, but what about your inner teenager? In this episode of The Embodied Podcast, I'm joined by author, educator, and longtime friend Eliza Alloway for a heartfelt conversation about the inner teenager, belonging, embodiment, self-trust, and what it means to truly come home to yourself. We explore why adolescence is such a pivotal stage of human development, how so many of us learned to disconnect from our bodies and our truth, and why healing often requires returning to the parts of ourselves that were never fully seen, heard, or supported. We also talk about: • Healing your inner teenager and why it matters • The difference between inner child work and adolescent healing • Self-trust, boundaries, and becoming more precious to yourself • Belonging, authenticity, and finding your own path • Neurodivergence, sensitivity, and living in a complex world • Caregiving, integration, and rebuilding a relationship with yourself • Embodiment, nature, and reconnecting with your body • Why joy, creativity, and risk-taking are essential to healing Eliza also shares her evolving body of work, Homebody—a beautiful exploration of what it means to cultivate genuine friendship with your body instead of trying to fix, control, or perfect it. If you're navigating personal growth, healing old patterns, reclaiming your voice, or learning to trust yourself more deeply, this conversation offers both wisdom and practical insight.  Thanks for tuning in!  Connect with Eliza: https://elizaalloway.substack.com Connect with Elizabeth: https://elizabethdialto.com/links

    EP 464: The Inner Elder with Heather Lindemenn

    What if the wisest, most grounded, most trustworthy part of you is already inside you? In this episode of The Embodied Podcast, I'm joined by my dear friend, teacher, and guide Heather Lindemenn for a powerful conversation about the Inner Elder—the wise, mature aspect of ourselves that can hold, guide, and support every other part of who we are. Many of us are familiar with inner child work, healing childhood wounds, and tending to younger parts of ourselves. But what happens when we invite the Inner Elder to lead? Heather shares how connecting with the Inner Elder can help us move beyond hypervigilance, self-protection, and old survival patterns into deeper trust, wisdom, softness, and self-leadership. In this episode, we explore: * What the Inner Elder is and why it matters * Moving beyond inner child work alone * Healing childhood wounds through wisdom and self-trust * The difference between protection and true safety * Hypervigilance, nervous system healing, and softening * Spirituality, mentorship, and embodied wisdom * Trusting your lived experience * Leadership, healing work, and personal growth * How to access the wisest part of yourself We also talk about aging, maturation, mentorship, spiritual teachers, healing journeys, and what it means to grow into a deeper relationship with your own authority. This conversation is for anyone navigating healing, personal growth, self-trust, spirituality, or a desire to feel more rooted in themselves and their own wisdom.
