    What It Means to Become More of YOU: Identity, Grief, & Authenticity with Allie Schlener

    #71: We often talk about being our authentic selves — but what does that actually mean? My dear friend, mentor, and soul sister Allie Schlener is back on the podcast for a beautiful conversation about what it means to heal, grow, and evolve as a human. We talk about how her studies in Integrative Psychology have changed the way she thinks about healing, why transformation often requires us to grieve, and what it means to meet ourselves exactly as we are NOW. In this episode, we explore: The role of grief in letting go of old identities & becoming who you are nowHow to move through grief on both a somatic & mindset levelWhat post-traumatic growth can teach us about identity, resilience, & healingWhy healing isn't linearThe power of presence, compassion, & allowing yourself to be exactly where you areHow our relationships can evolve as we change & why we have to keep meeting each other againWhat authenticity actually means beyond the buzzwordThe difference between your soul self, ego & witness — and how they shape the choices you makeWhy becoming more of yourself may be the deepest form of healing ✨ Get My FREE Masterclass: Become Your Own Healer: https://mailchi.mp/annabolender/free-masterclass Connect with Allie: Instagram: @alliealignsWebsite & 1:1 coaching: www.reclaimedalignment.com Connect with Anna: IG: @annaalexbeeBook your 1:1 Somatic Session: https://calendly.com/anna-bolender/1-1-somatic-session-deep-diveWebsite & Newsletter: www.annabolender.comSomatic Embodiment Coaching: ⁠www.annabolender.com/radiantyou⁠Free Resources & Upcoming Events: https://linktr.ee/annabolender

    Pressure Kills the Magic: How to Stop Forcing & Trust the Process

    #70: Where in your life are you putting so much pressure on something that you’re actually taking the magic out of it? In this episode, I’m sharing a personal reflection on something I’ve been navigating lately: the subtle pressure we put on the things we care about most — our relationships, work, goals, passions, healing, and even the things we once did simply because we loved them. We explore how desire can quietly turn into attachment, why pressure often disguises itself as ambition or commitment, and what can happen when we loosen our grip on how something needs to unfold. I also share how this has been showing up in my own business and relationship, plus a simple somatic reflection to help you notice where pressure may be living in your body — and how to create even 1% more space. In this episode, we explore: How pressure can quietly creep into the areas of life we care about mostThe difference between desire, commitment, & attachment to an outcomeWhy gripping for certainty can actually block presence, connection, & joyHow to recognize pressure and contraction in your bodyPowerful questions to uncover what may be underneath the pressureHow taking even 1% of the pressure off can create space for more magic ✨ Get My FREE Masterclass: Become Your Own Healer: https://mailchi.mp/annabolender/free-masterclass Connect with Anna: IG: @annaalexbeeBook your 1:1 Somatic Session: https://calendly.com/anna-bolender/1-1-somatic-session-deep-diveWebsite & Newsletter: www.annabolender.comSomatic Embodiment Coaching: ⁠www.annabolender.com/radiantyou⁠Free Resources & Upcoming Events: https://linktr.ee/annabolender

    Become Your Own Healer: Why Healing Begins with Safety & Self-Trust

    #69: Healing isn't something you do. It's a way of relating to yourself — and ultimately, a way of living. In this episode, I'm sharing a portion of my free masterclass, Become Your Own Healer: How to Stop Searching for Answers & Start Trusting Your Body. After years of exploring different healing modalities, personal growth practices, certifications, books, therapies, and trainings, I realized that no matter what tool I was using, I kept coming back to the same five core principles that create the foundation for lasting healing, growth, and transformation. In this conversation, we dive into the first two pillars. We explore why creating internal safety is the foundation of healing, how your nervous system influences the way you experience life, why what often looks like self-sabotage is actually self-protection, and how learning to stay present with your emotions can transform the way you move through life's inevitable challenges. I also guide you through a simple somatic practice to help you reconnect with your body and begin cultivating a greater sense of internal safety. If you'd like to watch the complete masterclass — including all five pillars, the slides, and the full two-hour workshop — you can access the free replay through the link below. https://mailchi.mp/annabolender/free-masterclass In this episode, we explore: Why more information isn't always the answer to healingThe five core principles that create lasting healing, growth, and transformationWhy healing begins with internal safetyHow your nervous system shapes your thoughts, behaviors, and realityThe difference between nervous system regulation & nervous system flexibilityWhy self-sabotage is often self-protectionHow presence helps you move through emotions instead of avoiding themA simple guided somatic practice to cultivate safety & reconnect with yourself ✨ Watch the full FREE Masterclass: Become Your Own Healer: https://mailchi.mp/annabolender/free-masterclass ✨ 21-Day Embodiment Challenge (Starts August 11!) If this episode resonated with you and you're ready to put these principles into practice, I'd love to invite you to join my 21-Day Embodiment Challenge. Together, we'll spend 21 days practicing simple daily rituals to help you reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system, strengthen your self-trust, and come home to yourself — one small step at a time. Because lasting transformation isn't created through one breakthrough. It's built through the small ways we choose to show up for ourselves each day.

    Unexpected Lessons from Motherhood: Identity, Relationships, & Becoming the Woman You're Meant to Be (with Rachel Gibler)

    #66: What if motherhood didn't make you lose yourself... but helped you become more of who you were always meant to be? In this episode, I sit down with my friend, former somatic coach, and mentor, Rachel Gibler, for a powerful life update one year after her first appearance on the podcast (Ep. 22). Since our last conversation, Rachel has become a wife, welcomed her beautiful daughter into the world, and stepped into an entirely new season of life. We explore the unexpected lessons motherhood has taught her, how it transformed her relationship, identity, purpose, and connection to herself, and why some of our biggest breakthroughs happen when we're willing to face the things we've been avoiding. Whether you're a parent or not, this conversation is ultimately about growth, becoming, and learning to build a life from deeper intention rather than fear. In this episode, we dive into: How motherhood transformed Rachel's identity, purpose & perspective on lifeThe biggest misconceptions about motherhood & why her experience surprised herHow healthy relationships can become powerful catalysts for healing & growthHow to communicate through triggers using parts work & nervous system awarenessThe importance of creating strong foundations before major life transitionsThe balance of doing inner work & mastering the practical areas of lifeBuilding a life with intention, legacy & long-term visionWhat it really means to become the person you're here to be ✨ FREE MASTERCLASS ✨ Become Your Own Healer Saturday, August 1 | 11am PST Online / Zoom You'll learn the framework that has transformed the way I approach healing — not as something you constantly do, but as a way of living that naturally supports your nervous system, health, healing, joy, and growth.

    Why You're Still Feeling Stuck (Even Though You're Doing Everything Right)

    #65: Are you doing everything right... but somehow your reality isn't catching up? If you've been showing up, doing the work, healing, learning, taking action… and still feel like you're running into the same invisible wall, this episode is for you. I share my own personal breakthrough from a recent coaching session that completely shifted how I think about growth and creating lasting change. We explore why the thing keeping you stuck may not be a lack of action — or something you're doing wrong — but a deeper nervous system and identity-based pattern that's still holding onto what's familiar. If you've ever wondered, "What am I missing?" ...this conversation might offer a completely new perspective. In this episode, we explore: Why you can be doing everything right & still feel stuckThe hidden role your nervous system plays in creating your realityHow familiar identities can quietly keep you in the same patternsWhat it really means to embody your next levelThe concept of "neutrality" & why it matters for money, love, success, and everything you want to receivePowerful reflection questions to help uncover where your own nervous system may be holding you back If you're feeling stuck in your business, relationships, health, finances — or simply know you're meant for more but can't seem to break through — I hope this episode offers a new perspective and reminds you that you may be a lot closer than you think.

    Redefining Success, Nervous System Healing & Creating a Life That Feels Like YOU (with Adam Carbary)

    #64: Is the life you're chasing actually the life you want? In this deep and honest conversation, I'm joined by Soma+IQ Breathwork Instructor and Somatic Coach Adam Carbary to explore what it really means to create a life that feels aligned — instead of one that simply looks successful on paper. We dive into Adam's journey from burnout, hustle culture, and chasing external success to radically simplifying his life, trusting his intuition, and designing a life rooted in purpose, presence, and nervous system regulation. In this episode, we discuss: How to move from hustle and burnout to fulfillment and alignmentRedefining success on your own termsThe connection between nervous system regulation & creating an aligned lifeWhy slowing down can feel so uncomfortable (and why it's so important)The "in-between" season of change & learning to trust the unknownResponding to life instead of simply reactingThe missing piece in manifestation, mindset & personal growthWhy true transformation starts with the body — not the mindA simple somatic practice you can start using today If you're feeling burnt out, stuck in hustle mode, navigating a life transition, or craving a slower, more intentional way of living, you're going to LOVE this conversation. Interested in learning Somatic Breathwork? I completed my Somatic Breathwork Practitioner Training with Soma+IQ last year, and it was one of the most transformative trainings I've ever done.
