What if we applied music therapy with greater care, could sound then intentionally shape emotion alongside physical state?

Welcome to episode 16 of Transformative Harmonics with Paula Scatoloni - LCSW, SEP. In this episode, Paula reflects on how music matters in her personal journey as well as her clinical work; revealing ways sound connects bodily sensations, old memories, and emotional regulation. Rather than moving quickly, she invites a short pause, softens pace, while tuning into how melodies subtly influence physical awareness.

Paula looks at how sound sharpens focus, shifts emotions, or brings peace. Drawing on her mind-body experience, she identifies three key roles music plays in healing. Through everyday stories, easy activities, and reflective questions, she encourages using music deliberately, not just passively, each day.

How do we dissolve the barriers that prevent us from fully receiving love in the way we were designed to?

Welcome to episode 13 of Transformative Harmonics with host Paula Scatoloni, LCSW, SEP. In this conversation, Paula is joined by Leah Dawang, SEP, RLT, and SSP provider. As the founder of Clear the Way, Leah guides individuals and couples on a path of relational healing, helping them reconnect with themselves, each other, and the wider world.

Their conversation unfolds as Leah shares her powerful personal journey, growing up with generational trauma, struggling with early therapeutic approaches, and experiencing a transformative bus ride in Cambodia that opened her to a new path of healing. From mystical encounters with love to life-changing moments of safety and vulnerability, Leah’s story illuminates the importance of clearing the blocks that keep us from living in alignment with love.

Together, Paula and Leah explore how sound healing, somatics, and relational practices can restore connection, both personally and collectively. They reflect on the role of safety in transformation, the need for supportive community containers, and the pattern of order, disorder, and reorder that shapes the human journey. At the heart of it all is the reminder that love is always available, and our task is simply to clear the way back to it.

How can slowing down, listening deeply, and leaning into curiosity open the door to true transformation?

Welcome to episode 12 of Transformative Harmonics, with your host Paula Scatoloni, LCSW, SEP. In this episode, Paula welcomes best-selling author, clairvoyant, and transformational leader Sydney Campos.
