​I remember the very slow realization as I started to embody my binges that food was never going to give me what I was looking for. It felt crushing to face. I'd been utilizing food as a way to try to help myself feel better, safer, more grounded and I felt so much grief that this strategy was never going to work.Over the years in private practice, I noticed almost every single person I worked with experience this moment of deep grief. I now have a term for this called Food Grief. Food recovery is a process of saying goodbye to strategies that worked as a child and no longer work now as an adult.Grieving any food coping mechanism is feeling the body unlearning an old survival pattern. Food Grief is your body reorienting to the present and that you no longer need to protect yourself like you did in the past.In this week's episode, I chat with Syanna Wand, Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and founder of Interpersonal Embodied Healing about: Understanding grief in healingThe somatic concept of armoringNavigating grief and reliefThe importance of resourcing yourselfBuilding capacity to be with your emotionsGenerational griefEmbracing grief and creating a relationship with itYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/grief-is-crucial-for-trauma-recoveryReminder that my Somatic Eating® Intensive is on sale for 30% off until Tuesday, December 2nd. ​Purchase with the coupon code SEI30! https://www.stephaniemara.com/learn#coursesWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Syanna: Website: www.syannawand.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/syannawand/ Email: sy@syannawand.comSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

This one is personal.In this deeply honest episode, I sit down with my former co-host and dear friend, Pia for a conversation that goes beyond wellness trends — and into the reality of burnout, chronic anxiety, postnatal depletion, and how healing the gut became a path to reclaiming health, motherhood, and identity.We talk about the systems that are failing women, the inconvenient truths about convenience culture, and the radical changes required when your body — or your child's — is in crisis.From fermented foods and slow-cooked stews to saying no to hustle culture, this is a reclamation story — of health, motherhood, and self-worth.In this episode:What postnatal depletion and chronic fatigue really look likeThe connection between gut health, anxiety, skin issues, and burnoutWhy so many women live in a state of depletion without even realizing itThe hidden cost of “bouncing back” after birthHow Pia's child's illness became the catalyst for her own healingThe truth about convenience cultureHow to start healing your gut (and your child's) with foodThe link between autoimmune conditions, women's health, and generational depletionWhy animal fat is not the enemy — and might be your body's best friendChoosing presence over perfection, nourishment over noiseKey Questions to Ask Yourself:What beliefs about success are keeping me in burnout?What does nourishment really look like in my life?Your Next Steps:Choose real food over fast fixesQuestion the systems and norms you've inheritedLet go of performance — in motherhood, work, and healingMake your kitchen your medicine cabinetRemember: You are already enough.For information and resources, check out kayaramjee.com.And if this episode moved you — share it with someone who needs to hear: You're not broken.

In this episode of Clover, I'm rethinking one of the biggest myths about career growth — the idea that success is about climbing a ladder.For many of us, especially women, that ladder was never built for the way our careers actually unfold. So let's talk about a better metaphor: the jungle gym. It's flexible, unpredictable, and a whole lot more real.I share lessons from my own path — from film school to marketing, from startups to enterprise leadership — and how every pivot, pause, and sideways move became part of the story I was meant to build.We'll dig into:Why lateral moves can be the smartest playHow to recognize what season you're in — growth, rest, or healingThe importance of building your network before you need itHow to own and narrate your unique career storyLetting go of timelines that tell you where you “should” be by nowIf your path doesn't look like a straight line, good. That means you're learning, adapting, and leading in your own way — and that's where the good stuff happens.What's one non-linear move you've made that taught you something you couldn't have learned any other way? Write it down, share it, or simply own it — that's your jungle gym résumé, and it's powerful.If this episode resonates, share it with another woman who needs the reminder: she's not behind — she's building her own structure.

What if the solution to chronic wound healing has been floating in our oceans for 600 million years?Jellyfish collagen isn't just different from the cow and pig-derived materials used in medicine today. It's actually better at healing human tissue.I sit down with Dr Andrew Mearns-Spragg, Founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Jellagen, who's proving this remarkable claim with hard data. His research shows jellyfish collagen outperforms traditional materials in vocal fold repair, triggers faster transitions from inflammation to healing, and creates longer-lasting tissue structure. The secret lies in what Andrew calls "collagen type zero," an evolutionarily ancient form that our bodies recognise differently, prompting superior healing responses without the prolonged inflammatory reactions seen with mammalian sources.Beyond the compelling science, Andrew reveals how he built the world's first ISO-certified medical device manufacturing plant for jellyfish collagen from scratch. We explore the practical realities of sustainable harvesting (achieving near-zero bycatch), navigating FDA regulations for an entirely novel biomaterial, and convincing investors to back marine biotechnology. This venture extends beyond the laboratory. By harvesting jellyfish blooms caused by overfishing, Jellagen addresses an ecological problem while creating advanced wound care solutions and providing alternative income for local fishing communities struggling with depleted fish stocks."The jellyfish collagen transition to healing was much quicker and longer lasting." - Dr Andrew Mearns-SpraggYou'll Hear AboutWhy jellyfish collagen outperforms mammalian collagen in tissue healingThe challenges of building ISO-certified jellyfish manufacturingHow ancient collagen triggers better immune responsesSustainable harvesting methods with near-zero bycatchTranslating marine biology research into medical devicesThe cost of chronic wound management in healthcareNavigating the FDA regulatory pathway for novel biomaterialsSupporting local fishing communities through jellyfish harvestingFrom angel investment to medical device commercializationPlatform opportunities beyond wound healing applicationsConnect with Dr Andrew Mearns-SpraggLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-m-006bb41/ Website - https://jellagen.co.uk/ Connect with me:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markdavison100/ If you need any lab equipment:Grant Instruments: https://www.grantinstruments.com/ Grant Instruments on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/grant-instruments-cambridge-ltd/

Episode Overview: In this powerful and heartfelt conversation, Amy Wheeler welcomes yoga therapists and authors Marilyn Peppers-Citizen and Charlene Muhammad to discuss their groundbreaking new book, Yoga in the Black Community: Healing Through Wholeness, History, and Hope. With humility, courage, and vision, Marilyn and Charlene share the deeply intentional 4-year journey that led to the book's creation—from its origins in conversations on chronic pain and health disparities to a larger message of universal healing through Yoga.Together, they explore the historical exclusion of Black communities from mainstream yoga spaces, systemic health inequities, and the emotional toll of ongoing racial bias in healthcare and research. Yet this episode is also rooted in hope—emphasizing the healing power of community-based practice, and the recognition that Yoga is not something to be “brought into” the Black community—it's already there.Listeners will be moved by their reflections on resilience, the limits of resilience, and the need to reimagine yoga therapy education, credentialing, and access through a lens of equity, affordability, and cultural inclusion.Key Topics Covered:How the book organically evolved through monthly conversations, Google Docs, and shared purposeChronic pain, scientific bias, and the history of mistrust in research and healthcareYoga as a path to liberation, community care, and remembrance of inherent wholenessCentering Black lived experience while offering a universal message of healingThe challenges of inclusion in mainstream yoga and the importance of culturally-rooted practiceReimagining Yoga therapy education and credentialing with equity and accessibilityActionable steps for individual and collective healing, starting with self-reflectionA call to yoga professionals to integrate social, historical, and emotional literacy into their workQuotes to Remember:“You don't need to be in a place to practice Yoga.

What if the secret to healing, energy, and resilience has been sitting quietly beneath the surface of your skin all along? Most of us have barely heard about the lymphatic system yet it could hold the key to everything from chronic swelling to brain fog to emotional wellbeing.In this powerful conversation, Celest sits down with Leah Levitan, licensed massage therapist, lymphatic drainage specialist, and founder of the global community The Lymph Love Club. Together they explore why the lymphatic system is so often ignored in medical training and why it deserves centre stage in how we think about health.Leah shares her journey from traditional massage into the world of fascia, fluid, and flow, and why treating the body as an interconnected ecosystem brings more ease and results than chasing symptoms. You'll hear about emerging research on fascia and lipedema, how swelling shows up in the body (from post-surgical lymphoedema to everyday puffiness), and why yoga teachers might be supporting lymph far more than they realise.In this episode:We learn:Why the lymphatic system is overlooked yet essential for healingThe difference between oedema, lymphoedema, and “invisible swelling”How fascia, nervous system, and lymph work together as the body's three amigosSimple ways yoga, breath, and movement stimulate lymph flowDebunking the myth that twists don't “detox”and why movement mattersIf you've ever felt heavy, swollen, or stuck in your body, or if you teach students who do this episode will completely shift how you see fluid, fascia, and flow.About LeahWith her extensive training in Myofascial Release Techniques, scar tissue work, trauma informed somatic therapy, organ manipulation, and The Vodder Method of Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Leah has woven together a unique body of work that's designed to support individuals with chronic illnesses.

John Dedakis spent 45 years in journalism—including 25 years at CNN, where he interviewed presidents, covered the White House, and even got tear-gassed during a riot. But behind the headlines is a personal journey marked by profound loss—losing a sister to suicide and a son to a heroin overdose.Out of those experiences, Dedakis has written six acclaimed political thrillers featuring his strong-willed protagonist, Lark Chadwick.

When a relationship ends without warning, it's common to feel blindsided, confused, and deeply hurt. This is often labelled the “avoidant discard” — but while that term might feel validating in the moment, it can also keep you stuck in a disempowering story.In this episode, we'll talk about how to process a sudden ending in a way that honours your pain without leaving you tethered to it. We'll explore:Why shock and lack of closure can intensify heartbreakThe difference between feeling discarded and being discardedHow villain/victim narratives can hold you back from real healingThe impact of online echo chambers on your recoveryPractical steps to reclaim your agency and move forwardThis isn't about minimising what you've been through. It's about finding a more grounded, self-responsible way to engage with what happened — so you can process it fully, integrate the lessons, and step into your next chapter with clarity and self-respect.Highlighted Links Free Break-Up Training: The 3 Shifts That Help Anxiously Attached People Heal After a Break-up Free Training: How to Heal Anxious Attachment and (Finally) Feel Secure in Life & Love London Event: tickets here Additional Resources Download the FREE Anxious Attachment Starter Kit here Join my email list

In this illuminating episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Dr. Jacob Liberman, a pioneering voice in the study of light, vision, and consciousness. Endorsed by luminaries such as Deepak Chopra, Bruce Lipton, and Eckhart Tolle, Dr. Liberman bridges science and spirituality to reveal how light is not only essential for our biology, but also a direct language of the divine.“Light is not something we see. It's something that guides us, a silent compass leading us toward alignment with life itself.” -Dr. LibermanDrawing from his groundbreaking book Luminous Life: How the Science of Light Unlocks the Art of Living, Dr. Liberman shares why seeing is an act of receiving, not controlling, and how our eyes guide not only perception but also our spiritual evolution. We discuss:Why light is the “language of the divine” and how we can attune ourselves to itThe role of vision as both a biological process and a spiritual guideHow colors and natural light cycles impact mood, stress, and healingThe difference between making life happen and allowing it to unfoldSimple daily practices to reconnect with light—both externally and withinThe surprising ways light continues to transform human consciousnessFor more about Dr. Jacob Liberman and his work, visit www.jacobliberman.org.If this conversation speaks to you, please share it and tag us @Gateways_To_Awakening.

Together, we dive into the healing power of the lymphatic system, the role of manual lymphatic drainage, and why post-op care is about so much more than swelling and scars.Kathleen shares her personal journey into massage therapy, her experience helping plastic surgery patients feel empowered in recovery, and the surprising emotional challenges women face after surgery—from navigating relationships to redefining quality of life.We also unpack trending wellness fads, the risks of reopening incisions, and why true friends and community support are just as vital as your surgeon and aftercare team.✨ If you're preparing for or recovering from plastic surgery, this conversation is your roadmap to healing, empowerment, and feeling like you again.

What if the very reason you feel stuck, silenced, or afraid to take up space… didn't start with you? What if the resistance in your body, the self-doubt in your voice, and the fear of being seen are actually ancient echoes of a system built to keep women small?In this first half of a powerful two-part series, I'm joined by my business coach and spiritual mentor Katy Stuart for a conversation that will live in your bones. We explore the forgotten history of the sacred divine feminine—and the systemic erasure that has shaped the way women live, lead, mother, and show up in the world today. From priestess temples and womb-shaped stone altars to the violent silencing of women through witch hunts and religious colonization, we trace the long lineage of how women's power was intentionally suppressed… and how those wounds are still alive in our nervous systems, families, and leadership.Drawing from the deep well of Katy's course HER, we illuminate the hidden narratives most of us never learned: the rise of the patriarchal church, the rewriting of spiritual history, the distortion of feminine wisdom, and the roots of the witch wound—both literal and energetic. This isn't just a historical conversation; it's an unflinching look at how centuries of systemic spiritual disempowerment still show up in modern-day business, motherhood, and personal identity.Whether you're spiritual or skeptical, religious or deconstructing, new to this conversation or knee-deep in the remembering, this episode will meet you where you are. It's for the woman who has always felt like there was more. The one who's starting to question what she was taught. The one who's waking up and realizing: I was never broken—I was just disconnected from the truth of who I am.Together, we name the invisible forces that have shaped us for generations—and we begin to unravel the lies. Because when you understand where the fear of being “too much” or “not enough” really comes from, you finally have the power to choose a different path.This episode is the remembering. Part two is the becoming.In this episode, we explore:The systemic erasure of the divine feminine and how it impacts modern women's voices, visibility, and self-worthThe spiritual lineage of the priestesses, shamans, druids, and oracles—and how their power was intentionally suppressedThe historical rise of patriarchal religion, the dismantling of goddess-centered cultures, and the suppression of feminine powerThe impact of Christian colonization, witch hunts, and the demonization of feminine spiritualityWhy women's natural connection to the earth, moon cycles, intuition, and womb wisdom was once revered—and how reclaiming it is an act of healingThe psychological and somatic effects of this erasure—including internalized shame, people-pleasing, self-silencing, and fear of spiritual explorationThe difference between matriarchal societies and modern feminism—and how ancient feminine leadership was rooted in reciprocity, reverence, and embodimentBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Katy:Instagram → @thekatystuartWebsite → katystuart.comJoin the Oracle Mastermind → katystuart.com/the-oracleStep into The Experience → katystuart.com/the-experienceConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram:
