    How to Stop Losing Yourself in Dating & Relationships with Annalisa Jackson

    #81: What if the key to healthier, more fulfilling relationships isn't finding the right person — but learning how to stay connected to YOURSELF? In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and fellow somatic coach Annalisa for a beautiful conversation about dating, relationships, self-trust, and how somatic practices can completely transform the way we connect with ourselves AND others. We dive into why our relationships often bring up our deepest patterns, how easy it is to lose ourselves when we're seeking love, validation, or reassurance from someone else, and what it actually looks like to stay grounded in ourselves while opening up to deeper intimacy and connection. Annalisa also shares practical tools for navigating relationship triggers, communicating your needs, trusting your intuition, and finding more freedom, joy, and aliveness in dating and relationships. In this episode, we explore: How somatic practices can transform the way we date, love, & relate to othersWhy relationships bring up our deepest patterns, triggers, & conditioningHow to stop losing yourself in relationships & seeking validation from othersHow to navigate conflict, communicate your needs, & repair relationship dynamicsThe importance of staying connected to your body, desires, & inner wisdom when datingHow to navigate dating anxiety, uncertainty, & the unknown without overthinking everythingWhy it's okay to be in the "maybe" instead of forcing a yes or noHow to cultivate more joy, pleasure, freedom, & aliveness — whether you're single or in a relationship 💃🏼 Join my 30-Day Dance Your Heart Out Challenge on Instagram @annaalexbee! Follow along as we simply put on ONE song a day that matches how we're feeling and let our body move however it wants to.

    How to Move Through Big Emotions: The Healing Power of Somatic & Intuitive Movement

    #80: Sometimes you don't need words for what you're feeling. Sometimes you just need to let your BODY speak — and MOVE with it. In this episode, I'm sharing a personal update about navigating heartbreak, grief, letting go, and stepping into a new chapter. I'm also diving into why intuitive somatic movement has been such a powerful part of my own healing journey, how movement can help us access and express emotions we might not even realize we're carrying, and how learning to be WITH our emotions (rather than trying to fix or get rid of them) can create so much more freedom, self-trust, joy, and aliveness. In this episode, we explore: A personal update on moving through a breakup, letting go, & the lessons relationships teach usHow intuitive movement helps us process, express, release, & move through big emotionsWhy we can't always THINK our way through what we're feelingHow movement can bring awareness to emotions, patterns, & sensations we didn't even know were thereThe difference between dancing to perform and moving to FEELWhy healing isn't about getting rid of uncomfortable emotions, but learning to be with themHow reconnecting with your body can help you build deeper self-trust, confidence, & authentic expressionHow to join & follow my 30-Day Dance Your Heart Out Challenge 💃🏼 Come join my 30-Day Dance Your Heart Out Challenge on Instagram: @annaalexbee All you have to do is put on ONE song a day that matches how you're feeling and let your body move however it wants to.

    The Art of Feeling Alive: Embracing Your Emotions, Embodiment & Authentic Expression with Sara Taskinen

    #79: What does it actually take to cultivate more joy, freedom, and aliveness in your life — and create a life that feels like YOU? In this episode, I'm joined by somatic & sensual embodiment guide and performing artist Sara Taskinen for a beautiful conversation about embodiment, emotional expression, spirituality, and what it really means to live fully connected to yourself. Sara shares her unconventional journey from growing up in a conservative Christian environment in the Midwest to pursuing dance and acting in California, and how her training as a performing artist completely transformed her relationship with her body, emotions, and intuition. We explore why being embodied isn't just about feeling grounded or connected, but learning to welcome and express the full range of our human experience — the joy, love, excitement, AND the sadness, grief, anger, and discomfort. We also talk about the connection between spirituality and the body, simple practices to reconnect with yourself, and what it looks like to trust your intuition and express yourself authentically instead of constantly looking outside yourself for answers. We explore: Sara's unconventional journey from religion & spirituality to dance, acting & somatic embodimentWhat embodiment actually means & why it's a lifelong practice, not a destinationHow to expand your emotional capacity & learn to be with uncomfortable feelings instead of suppressing themWhy allowing yourself to feel sadness, grief & pain can also open you up to more joy, love & alivenessThe surprising connection between acting, emotional expression & somatic healingSimple ways to reconnect with your body through movement, music, singing & your voiceHow to trust your intuition & create a life or business that feels authentic to YOU instead of following everyone else's expectations ✨ FREE MASTERCLASS — BECOME YOUR OWN HEALER ✨ Get my Free Masterclass below where I share the 5 pillars I live by that create real, tangible transformation — while creating a life that heals you and lights you up from the inside out.

    How I Stopped Trying to Do Life Perfectly (And Started Actually Living)

    #78: I thought the perfect life would make me happy — but this is what actually did. I've been a perfectionist for as long as I can remember — from competing in rhythmic gymnastics at seven years old, to chasing success in my career, to eventually bringing that same achievement mindset into my healing and personal growth journey. For years, I thought that if I could just do everything right, achieve enough, heal enough, and become the “best” version of myself, I'd finally feel successful, worthy, happy, and able to relax. In this episode, I'm sharing my journey with perfectionism, how it followed me from achievement into healing, and how I've redefined what a successful, well-lived life actually looks and feels like for me. In this episode, we explore: How perfectionism can show up in subtle ways beyond simply wanting things to be perfectWhere my own perfectionism started & how I connected achievement with worthinessWhy reaching the next goal, title, or level of success never felt like “arriving”How perfectionism can disguise itself as healing & personal growthThe difference between approaching yourself with curiosity vs. constantly trying to fix yourselfWhat I've learned about allowing difficult emotions instead of trying to have the “right” emotional experienceHow presence, connection, play & simple moments have made my life feel richer than achievement ever didHow I'm shifting from becoming the “best version” of myself to becoming more fully METhe simple question I ask myself to notice whether I'm approaching life from curiosity or judgment If you've been putting pressure on yourself to have it all figured out, heal every pattern, make the right decision, or finally become some future version of yourself, this episode is for you. ✨ BOOK A FREE CLARITY CALL ✨ Book a free call with me to explore your goals, gain clarity, and see whether my 1:1 container is the right fit to support you on your journey.

    #75: What happens when the life you worked so hard to build no longer feels like yours? In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend, mentor, Reiki teacher, and beautiful soul Cissa Joy for a conversation about burnout, spirituality, intuition, presence, and having the courage to follow the whispers that lead you somewhere new. Cissa shares her journey from building a successful career in sports marketing and working at some of the biggest sporting events in the world to experiencing deep burnout and realizing that none of the success, money, or accomplishments felt fulfilling anymore. We talk about how slowing down and reconnecting with nature helped her find her way back to herself, the intuitive nudges that completely changed the direction of her life, and how she ultimately discovered her calling as a healer — and found the courage to start over. In this episode, we explore: Cissa's journey from corporate success & burnout to becoming a healerWhat burnout & dissociation can look like when you're still functioning on the outsideHow to reconnect with yourself & hear the subtle whispers of your intuitionSimple practices for cultivating a deeper relationship with yourself, life, & spiritualityThe role of nature, silence, writing & ritual in Cissa's healing journeyHow our closest relationships can become some of our greatest teachersThe questions to ask when you're triggered or disconnected from yourself ✨ FREE MASTERCLASS — BECOME YOUR OWN HEALER Get my Free Masterclass below where I share the 5 pillars I live by that create real, tangible transformation — while creating a life that heals you and lights you up from the inside out.
