• S14E2 - Coaching v Facilitation: What’s The Difference & The Key Ratio to Reveal Your Practitioner Type

  Want to be the kind of practitioner that supports your clients to discover their own inner knowing (and avoid telling your clients what to)?  If you’re the kind of person (like me) who strongly dislikes being told want to do, and wants to avoid the ‘know it all’ coachy stereotype in their client work, there’s one simple test you can apply…   In this episode, we unpack: The “ratio” ninja trick that shows what type of practitioner you are Key differences between coaching vs. facilitation (they are oceans apart) Why most embodiment practitioners default to facilitation The two big reasons I believe coaching creates more transformation and more income How to shift from leading the session to holding space for deeper breakthroughs   If you’ve been inviting clients into their body - using meditations, guided experiences, and doing a lot of talking…. But you want to help them find more of their own answers instead this podcast is for you!    Resources mentioned in this podcast:  Somatic Self Coaching - free guide  Primal Feminine Flow - at home embodiment practice  Feminine Embodiment Coaching Certification - professional training

• S14E1 - Are You Too Ambitious To Be Feminine? Unpacking Productivity Wounds & Wanting More

  Many of us (myself, and many of my clients)have a complicated relationship with ambition. We’re high-achieving, smart women who know how to get things done.  But often, that productivity comes at a cost.    Burnout. Disconnection. Operating from hyper-masculine energy that pushes us past our limits. So, after burning out, we swing the other way. The feminine. The reclined, passive, soft energy.  But even in that softness, we start to wonder… Can I still want things? Can I still be ambitious and stay feminine?  Can I burn with desire for something and still honour my body? This episode dives into exactly that tension & how we can hold both.  Because ambition isn't unfeminine.   Success doesn’t have to cost us our wellbeing.   Resources mentioned in this podcast:  Somatic Self Coaching - free guide  Primal Feminine Flow - at home embodiment practice  Feminine Embodiment Coaching Certification - professional training

• S13E5 - What Is Embodiment? How Embodiment Found Me (Jenna’s Story)

  How Embodiment Found Me (And Changed Everything) Embodiment has a way of finding us, whispering quietly and planting a curiosity inside us—often long before we even know what the word means.  That was true for me. Back when I was a hospital pharmacist, I had no concept of “embodiment.” But something in me longed for more. My body was trying to tell me that what I was living… wasn’t it. I was sick—literally—Monday through Friday. I did all the tests, took all the medications, but the nausea wouldn’t go. My body knew. I was sick of the system I was part of. I didn’t know it yet, but what I was searching for was a different way of being. Personally & professionally.  Something more vital, more heart-connected, more alive. That search led me into a personal and professional metamorphosis—and eventually into building a whole school dedicated to Feminine Embodiment Coaching.   Resources mentioned in this podcast:  Info Session - Explore the Philosophy of Feminine Embodiment Coaching  Somatic Self Coaching - free guide  Primal Feminine Flow - at home embodiment practice  Feminine Embodiment Coaching Certification - professional training
