September 11, 2024Dr. Sarah Coxon on Relationship to Our Soma
Today’s episode is the fourth in a five part series on relationships and we sit down with Somatic Coach and Practitioner, Sarah Coxon. Sarah connects the dots between her first love, archeology and the work she does now to help people reclaim their power through somatic practices. Our conversation traverses many spaces, and brings us all closer to understanding, and feeling empowered about the healing path. Unlike many practitioners, Sarah doesn’t hyperfocus on the trauma, instead, she uses practices and present moment awareness to address what is here now. Sarah offers us gem after gem and posits that perhaps moving toward joy and aliveness can be a powerful pathway to healing.
- How Sarah’s background in archeology has shaped her worldview, and how it influences her work in Somatic Coaching
The link between nature and our own internal growth and healing
Sarah connects the dots for us on how our leaps in technology have surpassed our own biological and psychological capacities to handle them
Context in archeology is foundational, we are always looking at the context to understand a finding or a pattern in history and Sarah helps us see this through the lens of Somatic Coaching
Sarah reveals how our lack of curiosity, largely influenced by our need to know and technology, has impacted our capacity to think, feel and stay connected.
Sarah shares her insights on her evolution in coaching which started 8 years ago and how she thinks of her role now in holding space for whatever wants to be felt/seen/expressed now
Sarah uses a beautiful metaphor of embracing the tidal rhythms of life through grief and other complex emotions
How culture doesn’t teach self-trust, how early on we are told to trust authorities and this can lead to disembodiment and lack of inner knowing and trust
How attunement is a muscle we must deepen for our relationships, and how it begins with our bodies and going slower than we think we need to
Elisa and Sarah discuss that even leaders feel fear and disempowerment and the sooner we can develop empathy for their experience, the closer we get to a more connected workforce

August 08, 2024Megan Liebmann-Gudat on Relationship to Rituals and Nature
In episode 55 on The School of Unlearning podcast, the theme of relationships is explored as it relates to rituals and physical spaces in nature. This conversation builds on a five part relationship focus and grounds us back in our bodies and in to the natural world around us as we find our center and slow our pace down, all in the effort to be more attuned to our needs and those around us. Our guest is Functional Medicine Practitioner and Clinical Herbalist Educator and Practitioner, Megan Liebmann-Gudat. Megan specializes in helping women in the peri-menopause and menopause stages of life and health through dietary, lifestyle and mindset approaches.
In this podcast, we discuss:
- How to zoom out of the singular obsession of romantic relationships and move into a broader view of how to manifest love in life.
Elisa and Megan discuss why the “eradicate” approach with chronic health conditions isn’t working or healing.
Megan shares how our dialogue with our symptoms and ailments is foundational and the most powerful way to embark on a healing path. Megan asks us to invite a conversation with our symptoms to the table?
How we can match our environment with our biology and what this does for our health.
Relationship to space: Megan highlights how we can cultivate trust to a space, which she says is often one of our first relationships.
Megan introduces a “sits spot” which is a space she brings her children to a few times a year to notice seasonal changes and shifts in the terrain.
We cover what an “access point” is in healthcare and how knowing where to begin is maybe the most important thing.
Pacing and our relationship to slowness help improve our ability to be present and notice what is arising.
Top 10 Takeaways:
1. When dealing with chronic health conditions, move beyond “eradication” and dip into curiosity and conversation with the condition and it’s symptoms.
Being in relationship to the healing is more important than the protocol itself.
Our first relationship to trust is often our relationship with a physical space, a home.
A powerful way to be in relationship with physical spaces is to do what Megan calls a “sits spot” is an activity of mindfulness and noticing. Find one spot in nature and sit with it as the seasons change, draw and document what changes.
One way to mitigate the feeling of loneliness is to integrate other ways of bringing spiritual practices in, starting with nature or outdoor spaces. Realizing that we are not in fact alone.
Megan reminds us that we can’t speed up nature, so making a practice of keeping seasonal journal for your surrounding environment is a powerful way to bring presence into your life. This practice slows us down.
Take what you think you can do and divide it in two and take what you think you need and times it by 3.
Megan on embracing slowness: a major theme from all of the relationship podcasts so far has been pacing. And, Megan doubles down on how our pacing impacts our ability to connection.
Attunement matters when we consider how to shift our relationship to health, and this begins with a slowing down.
Access point is everything for practitioners of health and change. And, the access point is figuring out where the person is willing to shift, and that begins the great conversation and practice of healing.

July 02, 2024Kristen Lisanti on Our Relationship To Change
Today’s episode is the second in a five part series on relationships. Our guest and thought partner in this conversation is Kristen Lisanti who coaches and trains transformational leaders. After 20 years of cultivating healthy, high-performing cultures in organizations around the world, she now builds the capabilities of her clients to do the same. Kristen hosts Radiant Leader, a community of practice for transformational leaders, and immersive leadership development retreats and programs, including her mindful leadership cohort, Momentum. She lives outside New York City.
This is one of my favorite conversations on the podcast yet - and it’s an exploration of the human experience and the beauty of how our work can be fuel for our growth - and that in seeing work and career evolution as a pathway towards personal ascension and radical acceptance, we are never not in learning mode. Kristen walks us through her new framework for the 3 traps that keep leaders stuck in transitional leadership and how we use attunement and self-awareness to avoid these traps and step into the dynamic conversation of transformational leadership.
Top 10 Take aways:
1. We exist in relationship to one another - we are always interbeing and interbecoming.
We do not change other people. The only thing we can do is work on and within ourselves.
The 3 traps of transactional leadership are 1. The Compliant Trap. 2. The Controlling Trap and 3. The Knowing Trap.
Transformational leadership has nothing to do with your role or seniority and everything to do with relating to a purposeful vision and creating conditions for the team to achieve that vision.
Attuning ourselves and the people around us is essential for transformational leadership.
Change is not a sprint. Change is not a marathon. Change is infinite.
The case for efficiency and effectiveness is slowing down.
“Perfectionism is not perfection. Perfect is not a thing. Completeness is not a thing. Everything is always iterating and evolving forever.”
STOP, a classic mindfulness practice helps us move away from reactivity and creates space - in turn, opening us up the option of choice.
Check in with yourself - are you in a story that you didn’t write?

June 13, 2024Jordan Dann On Rupture & Repair in Relationships
This is the first episode in a five part series on relationships and we begin with an in depth look at relational rupture & repair with Somatic Therapist and Relational Psychotherapist, Jordan Dann.
"The best thing we get to do on this planet is be in relationship. And it’s the only thing we aren’t taught how to do.” Jordan Dann
Covering a wide array of topics and tools within rupture & repair, Jordan Dann provides insight into attainment, slowing down, the role of a therapist and client - and how we can begin to reimagine conflict as not a barrier, but as a bridge to connection.
Here are the top 10 take aways from this beautifully insightful conversation:
1. Attunement begins with being present.
Most people’s idea of slow is still really fast. Going slower, at quarter speed at any activity, opens up the landscape of choice.
A bid is a reach for connection. When we miss bids of attention, this is when ruptures occur. The Gottmans say that couples who are masterful at rupture and repair cycles, have 80% satisfaction and wellbeing in their relationships.
"You have to allow the repair to be a singular event, and not another log on the bonfire of resentment. Your reception and “thank you” and being able to fully let it go and move forward is as important as saying, 'I’m sorry.'" Jordan Dann
Our attachment system is really forgiving. Ed Tronick cites in his research that we only need to be in attunement 20-30% of the time. Our attachment system is really forgiving in that respect.
All conflict is in essence, an objection over difference.
"Until you understand what's running the show, you aren’t running the show, your unconscious is. Explore the enmeshment of your origin family and how a lack of differentiation is impacting your ruptures." Jordan Dann
BRING play and laughter more into the rupture and repair cycle: couples lay down on the ground while arguing, it helps de escalate the issue. When repairs go well, we can celebrate with each other. This is how you create a story about how you fight, if you celebrate and review the success of it.
We need models of health relationships, of ones who have ruptures and repair. We spend far too much time commiserating vs seeking out and being with others who repair well.
Specific appreciation is essential. And in order to be specific, we must be present and attuned.

June 11, 2024 Back In The Game & A Preview of What's To Come
A solo episode with Elisa who shares her insights and own unlearning about running a podcast.
You'll hear a review of top quotes from guests and also a preview of what is to come with a new series on Relationships coming soon.
“I am unlearning that I always know in the moment what is good or bad. The present is always changing our stories about the past. We have the ability to change the past because we have a different relationship with it, based on our present day." Connor Carrick, Episode 1
“Unlearning is the ultimate act of humility for me. It is the surrender to the fact that everything and everyone is a teacher, and everyone and everything is a student.” Claude Silver, Episode 15
"What I feel when I hear the word unlearning, I feel a relief, a softening, a permission. And, what I think about it is that if we have some intact culture and some experience at all with elder-hood, and what it may be to be near someone who are true elders, or many people or who are true elders, there wouldn’t be so much we have to unlearn, we could trust the learning that we did." Kimberly Ann Johnson, Episode 22
"Unlearning in degrees matters." Kate Fagan
And, Elisa previews an upcoming episode with Jordan Dann which will be released on June 13th.

June 29, 2023EP 48: Breathwork & The NY Knicks with Avi Greenberg
It turns our breathing isn't just about staying alive - it is a state/energy management tool that helps us regulate, get grounded, get fired up and recover. For episode 48 on The School of Unlearning, Avid Greenberg joins us to discuss his path to becoming a Wim Hoff Certified Breathwork Instructor. Avi spent years in the corporate world feeling less than optimal and fulfilled and finally followed his intuition to make the jump into becoming an entrepreneur and we are so glad he did. Avi has led thousands of people and groups through hot/cold contrast therapy and breath-work exercises and in this episode he walks us through the benefits for embracing the breath consciously - and why humans of all kind would benefit by embracing this tool. Avi and I also discuss how breathwork has been used in the NBA and professional sports worlds so that athletes can regulate themselves in order to gain a competitive advantage. We jam on the Knicks - his favorite team - and what parallels we both see in the corporate world and sports organizations as leadership principles evolve and become more human centric.

In this episode we cover:
- Avi's entrance to hot/cold contract and breath-work
The benefits of embracing breath-work consciously
Why long slow exhales help us regulate and feel more grounded
What NBA superstars like Steph Curry and Lebron James are using the breath to level up their performance during timeouts
What overlap we see in the corporate world and sports organizations in leadership
