130. Humanhood & Expression with Casey Riley and Melanie Peralta
🔑 Episode Summary
In this episode, I sit down with Casey and Melanie, the co-creators of the Humanhood Series, to talk about what it actually means to humanize the human experience. This is a real conversation about visibility, expression, leadership, and how our backgrounds shape how safe we feel being seen.
We talk about why healing doesn’t come from “high vibes” alone, how voice and expression are developed through lived experience, and why being seen is a leadership skill that requires discernment, boundaries, and trust.
đź“Ś In this episode, we talk about:
- Why expression is at the core of healing, not just regulation or mindset
- How Humanhood was born from intuition, trust, and a seven-episode “let’s see how this feels” experiment
- The difference between sharing from fear vs sharing from grounded boundaries
- How childhood experiences shaped each of their relationships with voice, leadership, and visibility
- Why being seen physically, emotionally, and energetically is a practice — not something you’re just “good at”
🧠Key themes from the conversation:
- Visibility as a skill set, not a personality trait
- Why being “an open book” doesn’t mean sharing everything
- How safety, context, and nervous system awareness impact storytelling
- The difference between edges and hard boundaries in expression
- Why people need permission to be fully human — joy included, not just trauma
đź’¬ Quotes from the episode:
“The real healing is talking about our real life stories.”
“Breathwork is about expression.”
“What’s a boundary today might be an edge tomorrow.”
“You don’t have to tell everyone everything.”
“We’re not here to be perfect. We’re here to be human.”
