I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed on the Touching Into Presence podcast by my good friend and fellow practitioner Andrew Rosenstock. In our chat we discussed my career journey, the concept of Mind-Body Coaching, and the complexities of working with clients. We also explored the principles and practices of Hakomi, the importance of mindfulness, and the value of humor in therapy. Lastly, we discussed the challenges and rewards of our roles and the significance of bringing emotional connection into business. Have a listen!

I’m just going to be blunt here: you can’t overpower and smash chronic tension out of your body. Doesn’t matter if you find the strongest, smartest, most skillful bodyworker on the planet. Why is that? You’re working against your biology in two key ways: (1) you and your nervous system have constructed that tension for a very solid set of reasons that smashing won’t eliminate, and (2) your fascia, the stuff that holds you together, is designed to provide you more stability & adaptability than human hands can change.

The story reflected in and unfolding through your body reflects the “Map of You” — your internal landscape of mind & body — and wires you to operate in the ways you do without even having to try. This map influences your physical body, your relationships, your career, and how you approach the many obstacles on your life’s journey. Our job together is to uncover that story to help you heal & thrive.
