The Healing Embodied Podcast

I have the absolute honor of sharing this incredible interview with THE Dr. Nicole LePera, creator of The Holistic Psychologist and New York Times best selling author. Nicole went from being a clinical psychologist, burned out doing cognitive therapy in private practice to creating an international community that provides education on holistic mental health and wellness through nervous system tools, inner child healing, and more.

In this episode, she shares the fears and challenges she has had to face in the process of following her purpose. We talk about the dark night of the soul, facing old patterns, and embracing the discomfort of the unknown in order to create a career that is an expression of your soul's calling.

If you are someone who wants to make a positive impact on the world around you, do not miss this episode.

We're answering another frequently asked question that we've heard from mental health professionals: How can I be human and ethical with my clients?

What if my client asks for a hug? What if they ask me a personal question? What if I say something and it unintentionally hurts them? What does it mean to be ethical?

We have a nuanced take on this topic that allows you to show up in your work honoring your humanity, your clients' humanity, while serving them ethically.

We've been hearing this question a LOT! And most people aren't taught this in grad school. You're taught that you have a few options post-graduation: community mental health, group/private practice, or treatment centers.

But what if you're someone who does not thrive in the traditional mental health system? What if you want to expand your career beyond that and use your skillset in new ways?

In this episode, we're going to help you unlock your ability to dream, create, and open yourself to the infinite possibilities of what you can do with your immense skillset.

A long overdue episode where I share my deep love for pole dancing with the incredible Dr. Cat Liang. She is a clinical psychologist and pole dance instructor who has conducted research on the therapeutic benefits of pole dance, particularly with women survivors of abuse.

We talk about the internalized shame that women carry about their bodies and their sexuality. We talk about the importance of witnessing other women reclaiming their bodies through sensual movement, as well as the power of healing in a community of supportive women.

We also discuss how creativity and pole dance help trauma survivors gain a sense of agency over their bodies and their emotions, and learn to feel safe with discomfort.

Dr. Cat Liang is going to be running her first 12-week Sensual Movement workshop series in Los Angeles, California, where she puts her clinical research into practice. If you are interested in learning more and being on the waitlist, send her an email at [email protected]

You can learn more about her therapy work at her website: https://www.drcatliang.com

In this episode, I talk about the 3 layers of human existence. Most people only live in the layer of the mind. The thoughts, the stories, the judgments. This creates a limited experience of reality. The next layer is the body, where we connect to life outside of thought. We feel. We are present. The body then becomes a portal to the spiritual dimension: the connection to all life force itself. When you connect to the deeper layers of existence, your mind becomes a creative tool that can access a deeper intelligence.

I also announce the launch of our brand new program, Wholly Human. Learn to embrace your humanity, safely feel your emotions, and live beyond the mind. 6 months of deep embodiment, connection, and creation.
