This episode is a soul-deep, no-BS conversation about healing, authenticity, and reclaiming your voice in a world that profits off your disconnection. My guest, Erin Telford, shares her powerful story trauma-healing, and societal pressure to rediscover a life of radical joy, service, and self-expression through authenticity + stepping into your power.

Erin is a Breathwork facilitator and teacher trainer, a conscious business mentor for healers and coaches, and an intuitive guide. Her career began 14 years ago as an acupuncturist, Chinese herbalist and Reiki Master. She supports her clients in connecting to their intuition and innate wisdom so that they can find the answers that already exist within themselves and in expanding their consciousness through deprogramming patterns, societal conditioning, limiting beliefs, and healing core wounds. Her business mentorship supports healing professionals in liberating their true voices, expanding their impact, vision, abundance, and personal evolution.

She has created Breathwork experiences for Free People, the Soul Cycle/Soul Legends retreat, In Goop Health NYC, Wanderlust Festival, and YPO. Her work has been featured in Vogue, InStyle, Shape Magazine, Nylon, and NY Magazine. She currently lives in Joshua Tree and is deeply enjoying her life.

In this episode explore the messy middle—the liminal space between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming—and how to navigate it with grace, truth, + nervous system safety. If you’ve ever felt the tug toward something more but don’t know where to start, this conversation is the invitation you’ve been waiting for.

We discuss…

• The healing power of breathwork

• How authenticity feels in your body—and how to follow it

• Letting go of the “good girl” archetype + choosing freedom over performative healing

• The role of grief and stillness in becoming your truest self

• Why your nervous system needs safety before it can allow expansion

• Understanding trauma patterns that keep you stuck (even when you’re “doing the work”)

• Rebuilding identity after burnout, heartbreak, or loss

• How acts of kindness, joy, + play can become your compass back to wholeness

  
  

💫 Whether you're in the thick of a healing journey or ready to step into your power, this episode is a reminder: You’re not broken—you’re becoming.
