Touching Into Presence Podcast Interview

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!

Do Regular Shit

Bit of a (tongue-in-cheek) rant here but it seems to me that wellness culture & social media in general have appropriated common sense, "validated" it, & repackaged it into something amazing! and supposedly unique (and, of course, sellable!) that takes much of the joy & ease out of these things in order to superpower your Hustle or maximize who you are in some way. Simply put, bringing intensity & over-focus to your wellness “protocols” undermines much of our efforts at relaxation, stress relief & improved health. The solution is really quite simple.

Get Out Over Your Skis

Transformation, by definition, is never safe. To transform an aspect of your life requires you to break out of what’s known, predictable, and most likely, comfortable. Aiming at something new & big through logic and precise, comfortable planning frames your thinking through the lens of the things you already know, so most likely, nothing new will happen. Unplugging from our lives to travel South America for a year required my family and I to lean just beyond our comfort zone and not fully know how everything would come together. And if we can do it, you can too.
