What happens when a leader is willing to talk about the things most people avoid?

In this powerful guest episode of Dropped In with Meghan Weir, Meghan sits down with subconscious and somatic facilitator Kristi McCleod to explore the intersection of nervous system safety, subconscious healing, and the responsibility that comes with holding space for others.

Kristi is the lead facilitator in the Subconscious Imprinting Technique (SIT) certification program and works with entrepreneurs, leaders, practitioners, and facilitators who are ready to get to the root of patterns that keep showing up in their lives and businesses.

Together, Meghan and Kristi dive into what it truly means to create safe spaces for transformation. Not the kind that bypass discomfort, but the kind that can hold the full spectrum of human experience.

This conversation moves into territory many people avoid, including the impact of trauma, the responsibility of practitioners, and why speaking openly about difficult experiences can create permission and healing for others.

Inside this episode, we explore:

• What Subconscious Imprinting Technique (SIT) is and how it works
• Why many healing modalities only treat symptoms rather than the root
• The role of nervous system safety in coaching, facilitation, and leadership
• What happens when practitioners lead from their own dysregulation
• Why corporations and leadership spaces are still resistant to deeper nervous system work
• The moment Kristi chose to share her story about suicidal ideation on stage
• How courageous storytelling creates permission and healing for others
• The responsibility of facilitators to hold safe, grounded spaces for transformation

Kristi also shares how her personal experiences shaped her mission to help people understand what’s happening inside their bodies and minds, and why having the right tools and support can change the trajectory of someone’s life.

Because when people feel safe enough to tell the truth about their experience, something powerful happens.

The shame softens.

The isolation dissolves.

And the door to healing opens.

This episode is a reminder that leadership, facilitation, and healing work require more than techniques. They require presence, responsibility, and the courage to hold space for the full human experience.

If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who believes in creating spaces where people can truly be seen, heard, and supported.

Because sometimes the most powerful leadership begins with simply being willing to go there.
