Change isn’t just an idea. It’s an embodied practice. It’s something we live and breathe. Each episode of the Embodied Change Podcast explores how tuning in to the body can transform the way we move through the world. Through conversations with mind–body experts, psychEd discussions, personal stories, and practical somatic techniques, we’ll uncover what it takes to create change that begins from within — change that’s grounded, sustainable, and deeply human.

  1. Grace Under Pressure: Self-Compassion for Leaders, Caregivers, and High Achievers

    Grace Under Pressure: Self-Compassion for Leaders, Caregivers, and High Achievers

    What if the very thing that makes you effective is also what’s depleting you? In Episode 2 of the Embodied Change Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Bloodine Barthelus and Dr. Ally Skoog-Hoffman, PhD as we dig deeper into self-compassion — especially for leaders, educators, parents, and caregivers who are constantly pouring into others. We explore:  ✨ Why so many service-oriented professionals tie their worth to productivity  ✨ The quiet “martyr” narrative that keeps us overextended  ✨ Why saying no can feel threatening — even when it’s necessary  ✨ How fear of being “soft” or “selfish” keeps us stuck One powerful question we discuss: What if self-compassion isn’t weakness…but maintenance? Question the inherited narratives. Define what “selfish” or “soft” really mean. Trust that rest and grace can coexist with excellence. Self-compassion doesn’t dilute effectiveness. It sustains it.

  3. From Neural Networks to the Nervous System: A Physicist's Path to Somatic Psychology

    From Neural Networks to the Nervous System: A Physicist's Path to Somatic Psychology

    What happens when a physicist named after Einstein leaves Princeton for the California coast and ends up founding a somatic psychology movement? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Dr. Albert Wong, founder of Somatopia, to explore his extraordinary journey. We explore: 💡 The shift from "Why?" to "How am I, right now?" 💡 Moving from explanation to process 💡 Letting go of end-gaining and learning to be with 💡 How mind and body can work in concert (instead of at war) 💡 Practical first steps to begin inhabiting your body One of my favorite takeaways: Every gentle act of turning toward a sensation is a statement of “You belong.” If you’ve ever:  ➡️ Thought your way through life  ➡️ Lived in achievement mode  ➡️ Struggled with “not enoughness”  ➡️ Or felt the pull toward something deeper and more embodied This episode is for you. Albert also shares insights from his book, The Healing Trauma Workbook, and practical ways to begin listening inward today.

    Grace in the Gaps: Self-Compassion for Leaders, Caregivers, & Change-Makers

    🎙️ New Podcast Episode: “Grace in the Gaps: Self-Compassion for Leaders, Caregivers & Change-Makers” In this episode of the Embodied Change Podcast, I’m joined by the brilliant Dr. Bloodine Barthelus and Dr. Ally Skoog-Hoffman as we dig deeper into a powerful question: 👉 Where do we struggle most to offer ourselves grace, and why? Together, we explore: ✨ How leaders, educators, and caregivers often equate worth with productivity✨ The “martyrdom” trap in service-oriented professions✨ Why asking for help can feel like failure✨ Somatic cues that signal we’ve moved into self-judgment✨ The fear that being gentle with ourselves might make us “soft” or less effective We talk about the tightening in the gut. The closing of the throat. The heat across the heart. The reflex to fix, dull, or do our way out of discomfort. And we name something many of us feel but rarely say aloud: When you are constantly extending compassion outward, it becomes harder to offer it inward. 🎧 Tune in and join us as we continue exploring how to stay compassionate with ourselves. #EmbodiedChange #SelfCompassion #LeadershipDevelopment #WomenInLeadership #BurnoutPrevention #SomaticAwareness #EducationLeadership

  5. How Traditional Chinese Medicine Influences Our Lifestyle with Dr. Dongcheng Li

    How Traditional Chinese Medicine Influences Our Lifestyle with Dr. Dongcheng Li

    In our latest episode of the Embodied Change Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Dongcheng Li, Dean of Chinese Medicine at the National University of Natural Medicine, about how Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) shapes the way we understand health, prevention, and daily living. In this conversation, Dr. Li explores: ✨ Health vs. “Dis-ease” – Why Chinese medicine focuses on restoring ease and functional balance before pathology appears. ✨ Root vs. Symptom – How a headache might be treated through the feet via meridian pathways. ✨ Food as Daily Medicine – Why seasonal eating matters. ✨ Human Constitutions – How personalized lifestyle guidance (Yin-deficient, Qi-deficient, damp types, etc.) helps prevent illness. ✨ Emotional Health – The role of the seven emotions in physical wellbeing — and why balance is so important. ✨ Living with the Seasons – Adjusting sleep, movement, and diet to align with winter, summer, and transitional periods. If you’re interested in holistic health and practical strategies you can apply today (from improving digestion to optimizing sleep rhythms), this episode offers timeless wisdom.

  6. When Change Lives in the Body with Dr. Kathryn Kennedy

    When Change Lives in the Body with Dr. Kathryn Kennedy

    ✨ Excited to share that today is launch day for the Embodied Change Podcast ✨ This podcast was born from a truth I learned the hard way: 👉 You can’t think your way into changing. You have to feel your way there. For most of my life, I tried to create change through mindset, strategy, and hard work alone. It got me far until it didn’t. I went through cycle after cycle of burnout, running myself ragged, and working against myself.  Eventually, I realized my body had been trying to tell me what my mind was overriding. That moment led me to somatics, to a more human-centered approach to healing, and to a deeper way of being in my own life.  This work is more than a podcast; it’s a movement toward human-centered change from the inside out. 💫 Episodes of the Embodied Change Podcast will explore various facets of embodied change, including but not limited to the following: ✅ Conversations with practitioners and leaders ✅ Psychology + nervous system education✅ Somatic practices✅ Stories of lived experience✅ Tools for grounded, sustainable growth 🎧 Episode 1 is live: “When Change Lives in the Body” This first episode offers a short introduction to embodied change, including what it is, why it matters, and how we can work with ourselves instead of against ourselves. If you like what you hear:✅ Follow the show on your favorite podcast platform✅ Listen + subscribe on Substack @embodiedchangepodcast✅ Share it with someone who might be interested  Here’s to change that starts in the body and expands into the world. 🌿 #EmbodiedChange #Somatics #NervousSystem #HealingCentered #Leadership #TraumaInformed #PodcastLaunch #EmbodiedLeadership
