This week on Cleared for Profit, Emma interviews Dr. Lulu Shimek, a naturopathic physician with additional training in other healing modalities.

Emma shares how she learned the importance of prioritizing her physical health and Dr. Lulu gets specific about how to release cellular trauma.

In this episode Emma interviews Dr Cindy Bergh, the founder of Le Coeur, a wellbeing practice in Asheville, NC. Her definition of trauma, as something that we do not have the energy (resources) to deal with in real time, informs the healing work that she does. She uses chiropractic care to help people to release the trauma stored in our bodies. Dr Cindy describes the physical symptoms that many of us display when we are embodying trauma, whether they have conscious memories of trauma or not, and encourages us to be in relationship with our bodies. She articulates her belief that the stored energy of the trauma can propel us into the next stage of our life or business. Being stuck is telling us that we've gotten as far as we can with the amount of energy we have, but the alienated energy of the trauma can provide a boost and a guide for the future. Emma shares her personal experiences of embodying a trauma response while upleveling her business and Dr Cindy breaks it down!

In this episode of Cleared for Profit, Emma talks with Meade Neumann, who is an Energy Healer, Massage Therapist and Life Coach.

Emma and Meade also talk about the ways our bodies are affected when we uplevel in our businesses and why this happens.

This week, Emma talks with Sarah Shoemaker, an educator and coach who specializes in trauma-informed mindfulness practice.

They dive deep into how our bodies can lead the way towards healing trauma and Sarah leads listeners through a breath exercise.

This week, Emma talks with Jeffrey Van Dyk, the founder of the Tribal Marketing Method, in a transformational conversation about core wounds and what they can teach us about our market. Jeffrey defines a core wound as an identity-based belief that we adopt for survival purposes that at a soul level is fundamentally untrue: I'm a failure, I'm stupid, I'm unlovable, I'm an outcast. Listen in as Jeffrey and Emma talk about wound driven operating systems (and purpose driven operating systems) and how to find the 'one square inch of the market that you can drill a mile deep'. You don't want to miss this!
