Do you see your body as a friend or a foe? Or do you even know? Oftentimes we don't even consciously realise the way we make an enemy of our body. But what impact does this have and does it lead us in the direction we want to go? 

How do things change if we start to see our body as a friend and inherently working in our favour? Join me in this episode to talk about just that!

In this episode, I chat with Dr Nikky Gordon, who helps people who have had a heart surgery or diagnosis use exercise and lifestyle modifications to regain their confidence through exercise. 

Nikky and I chat about her work and how mindset impacts our health and recovery, as well as not taking our capacity to move well and freely for granted.

Today I'm joined by Dr Erika Bonilla, a Sports Chiropractor, Triathlete and Ultra-Runner. Erika and I discuss everything from the literal way movement saved her life, to the deep respect she holds for the body (and why she doesn't negotiate on sleep), motherhood, salsa dancing and more.

What do the ideas of autonomy and authority have to do with mindful movement and how do they relate to the Soma (and, for that matter, what even is the Soma?). Well ... tune in and let's talk about it! In this episode I talk about why we're so quick to defer to external authority when asking the question 'am I doing it right?' and why we might want to work towards turning that question inward.

Today I'm joined by Karen Bleakley to talk about the ways movement, exercise and feeling good have evolved for her over the years and how, ultimately, integrating 'being a mover' into her self-identity was the significant shift she was seeking. We talk about fitting movement into life as a busy mum (Karen has three kids - including twins! - and runs her own business, so she knows a thing or two about the juggling of priorities).

Last week I shared this idea:

Thinking that you 'should' is not the same as wanting to. 

Wanting to is not the same as feeling like it.

In this episode I explore this idea a little more deeply and suggest why 'wanting to' (and understanding why) might be the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to doing the things on your 'to do' list.

Today I'm joined by Jessie Rard. Jessie does some pretty amazing stuff - including hair hanging, head sitting and the pancake. Yep, Jessie is a contortionist. We chat all things nervous system 'sweet-talking', body love and what drew him into this world. We also talk about the role of movement in the female to male transition Jessie went through a few years ago. This is an amazing conversation that I'm honoured to bring to you.
