Your Body Knows

Why We Hide Our Sensuality (and How Movement Can Set It Free) w/Pole Dancer Sammy Picone


Listen Later

There’s a certain magic in watching someone move as if they’re completely at home in their body. Sammy Picone embodies that magic.

Known worldwide for her distinctive blend of strength and fluidity, Sammy is a pole dancer, instructor, and movement artist who invites people to rediscover confidence, pleasure, and creative freedom through their bodies. Her work has been celebrated by The New York Times, Essence, and Vogue, but more importantly, by the thousands of students who’ve learned from her authenticity and artistry.

Together we talk about the power of sensual movement, what it means to liberate yourself from old narratives, and why embodiment is about much more than physical skill—it’s about coming back to yourself.
