Kellan shares their powerful journey of navigating life as a queer, trans person and how their experiences shaped their healing work.

Kellan blends breathwork, polyvagal theory, parts work, and Root Cause Therapy to support nervous system healing and emotional release. In this episode, we explore:

How being trans and a transracial adoptee intersects with Kellan's identity and healing journey.

The power of breathwork and somatic practices in navigating trauma and reconnecting with the body.

The importance of authenticity in healing and reclaiming one’s true self.

How Kellan’s spirituality and healing practices have evolved over time, especially with Root Cause Therapy.

And how we can heal from within by tuning in to our bodies and nervous systems.
