Work sometimes triggers our fight‑or‑flight responses—especially in agency life. In this episode, Galen sits down with leadership coach and operations strategist Abigail Jones and project manager/coach Matthew Fox to explore what happens when we ignore the signals our bodies are giving us, and how tapping into our “body intelligence” can help us lead more consciously in a technology‑driven world. They unpack how our nervous systems get hijacked by stress in modern work, how noticing our physical responses becomes a tool (not just a symptom), and how teams and agencies can shift culture to reclaim better performance and wellbeing.This is a grounded, real‑world conversation—no fluff—about how our bodies, our minds, and our projects intersect.Resources from this episode:Join the Digital Project Manager CommunitySubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Abigail on LinkedIn and InstagramCheck out SouthleftConnect with Matthew on LinkedIn and The BureauThe Leadership Circle Profile assessment What it is: The most comprehensive 360-degree leadership assessment that measures both competencies (what you do) and internal assumptions (how you think)Why I use it: It's the only tool I've found that measures both reactive leadership patterns (controlling, protecting, complying) and creative leadership capacities (relating, self-awareness, authenticity, systems thinking)Visual profile shows leaders exactly where they're operating from fear vs. trustI'm certified to administer and interpret this assessmentSomatic & Body Intelligence PracticesWindow of Tolerance (from Polyvagal Theory): there's a "window" where you can think clearly and respond consciously.

Listening to your body (HOUR 2) - October 12th, 2025

In an industry obsessed with outward appearances, what if we made decisions by listening to our body and not just looking at it? If clothing choices came from a place of self-awareness, how would that change the way we design products and run fashion businesses? Victoria Lister approaches her work from this perspective. In episode 124, she shares what made her start listening to her body and what that has meant for her underwear and lounge brand Hummingbird Pie. Victoria is the founder and owner-operator of Hummingbird Pie, an Australian-based, micro-business that has supplied women with luxe, everyday basics since 2015. The business was born from Victoria's personal quest to solve the problem of thigh chafing without resorting to shapewear – a challenge that led her to create Hummingbird Pie's flagship product, long-legged underpants known as ‘Longerpants'. Today, the range has expanded to include outer as well as underwear, designed to help women of all ages, stages, shapes and sizes to feel at home in themselves – not reshaped, but supported, relaxed and free to be. Hummingbird Pie fits in and around Victoria's work as a researcher, with the help of her wonderful husband and two dear friends who work casually on different aspects of business, and local suppliers and manufacturers. This episode explores: Fitting the customer How the Hummingbird Pie target customer has expanded since the start of the business The mindset that unites Hummingbird Pie customers What makes Hummingbird Pie garments different The relationship Victoria wants her customers to have with Hummingbird Pie clothes Fitting the lifestyle The challenges of scaling a cottage business Why new products don't always start with design What gave Victoria the courage to start a business The behind the scenes lifestyle that supports Victoria's business Fitting the values How Victoria's self-awareness and valuing her body influences her approach to design Why Victoria prefers working with other collaborators instead of learning how to do everything herself People and resources mentioned in this episode: Hummingbird Pie website Hummingbird Pie email Hummingbird Pie Instagram Victoria's LinkedIn Do you want fashion business tips and resources like this sent straight to your inbox?

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik speaks with “health detective” Beth Mielbrecht about moving beyond trial-and-error wellness. Beth blends engineering-style problem solving with energetic and bioindividual approaches to help people identify root causes—rather than silencing symptoms. From digestion and detox to stress, grief, and belief systems, she explains how tuning into your body's signals can drive practical change in daily choices. This direct conversation challenges “it's just age/genetics” thinking and offers a clear path: ask better questions, listen closely, and take aligned action.   About the guest : Beth Mielbrecht, known as a “health detective,” combines a background in mechanical engineering with training in Reiki, homeopathy, and bioenergetic testing. She helps clients uncover individualized root causes and create targeted next steps—without medical diagnosis or one-size-fits-all fixes.   Key takeaways:   Your body is not the enemy—it's always trying to heal; symptoms are messages, not mistakes. Treating pain without asking “why now, why here?” can mute signals but miss the root cause. Daily elimination, safe detoxification, and reducing exposure to common toxins can unlock stalled progress. Emotions matter: grief and chronic stress often map onto physical weak spots (e.g., lungs, adrenals, thyroid). Beliefs shape outcomes; closing the door on possibility narrows what you try—and what works. Practical cadence: ask specific questions → listen to what changes symptoms → act on small, testable steps. Track patterns (food, sleep, people, places) to see what reliably helps or harms. “Whole-body” isn't anti-medicine; it's expanding your health team and methods when standard paths stall. Gentle, personalized support (e.g., homeopathic/energetic tools) can increase capacity to move, engage, and live. Progress compounds: relief in one area (e.g., joints) can catalyze energy, mood, and life decisions.   How to connect with the guest  : Website: yourhealthwithbeth.comSocial: @YourHealthWithBethFree quiz available on the website.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

This conversation traces what happens when yoga is not just a class but a way of living. Harmony speaks with nutritionist and longtime Ashtanga practitioner Karolina Zakrzewska about two decades in India, managing Purple Valley in Goa, opening the Tenerife sister center, and how dedication to practice intersected with her recovery from disordered eating. They explore the “fire” that fuels Ashtanga, the risk of letting that fire consume us, and practical, compassionate ways to nourish body, mind, and spirit through seasons of change, including perimenopause and midlife. What We Cover Finding yoga in India and studying closely with Rolf Naujokat What Purple Valley means to the Ashtanga community and how Tenerife came to be The helpful and harmful sides of “too much fire” in practice Karolina's personal story with anorexia and bulimia, and why radical honesty is a turning point in healing How yoga can replace, or heal, other addictions depending on mindset Working with “trigger foods,” fear foods, and mindful eating without moralizing food Why vegetarian or vegan patterns can be fraught for some teens, and how parents can keep an eye out Midlife shifts: protein, gut health, nervous system regulation, and sustainable routines The spiritual dimension of nourishment and why “your body is a portal” About the Guest Karolina Zakrzewska is a nutritionist specializing in dysfunctional eating and eating disorders. A longtime Ashtanga practitioner, she managed Purple Valley in Goa for many years and helped launch its partner retreat in Tenerife.

In this episode, I sit down with Erica Hornthal, licensed clinical professional counselor and board-certified dance/movement therapist, to explore the transformative power of movement for emotional and mental health. Known as “The Therapist Who Moves You”, Erica shares how dance and movement therapy can help us reconnect to our bodies, regulate the nervous system, and rewire patterns shaped by trauma, stress, and perfectionism.We unpack misconceptions about dance therapy, the challenges dancers face in balancing technique with authenticity, and how to foster embodied practices for healthier, more resilient artistry.

When was the last time you truly listened to your body? Those whispers of "I don't feel right" or "I'm so tired" aren't just inconveniences – they're crucial messages that deserve your attention.In this deeply personal conversation, health and mindset coach Andrea Joy shares her harrowing journey from severe burnout to vibrant health. After opening her own business at 26 while caring for her mother with stage four cancer, Andrea found herself facing multiple autoimmune conditions, including lupus symptoms and hypothyroidism. Despite doctors telling her she was "fine" or that her symptoms were "normal," she knew something was wrong."That's where I really try to educate my clients," Andrea explains. "Listen to those whispers of 'I don't feel so good, I'm feeling anxious, I'm feeling burnt out.' Even if a doctor says you're okay – you know what's best."For entrepreneurs especially, this episode offers invaluable wisdom on preventing burnout before it takes hold. Andrea outlines practical strategies for creating your personal wellness "toolbox" and incorporating self-care directly into your business plan, not as an afterthought but as a foundation for sustainable success.Whether you're facing burnout now, recovering from health challenges, or simply want to build resilience before problems arise, this conversation offers compassionate, experienced guidance to help you thrive, not just survive. Subscribe now and join our community of women committed to vibrant, intuitive, beautiful, and empowered living.Bio Andrea's nutritional journey has been a powerful testament to listening to her body's needs. After five years on a vegan diet, she transitioned to Keto in 2020 to address her health needs more deeply. Then, in May 2024, she made the switch to a Carnivore diet, and the results have been nothing short of transformative.Since embracing Carnivore, Andrea has experienced a profound shift in her health. She gained 20 pounds of strength, steadily reversing more autoimmune symptoms that had persisted for years. The benefits have been undeniable: higher energy levels, no more intense cravings for sugar or carbs, and even the return of a regular menstrual cycle after two years of inconsistency. Andrea believes food is our medicine and the importance of tapping into your body to understand what your body is asking for to thrive!Social Media and Bio Website FacebookInstagramYouTubeLinkedInTikTokWe hope you have enjoyed this episode.

Today's conversation is an exploration of what happens when women's stories and voices are suppressed, and how we reclaim our power in a world which has historically denied our worth. It's the story beneath the story of menstruality, the foundation for all we're reclaiming with menstrual cycle awareness and conscious menopause. Our guide in Harvard-trained feminist theologian, Meggan Watterson.When Meggan first encountered the new testament she broke out in hives. For years she studied the female saints, gurus, poets and mystics throughout history in all the world's religions, got a master degree in a comparative world religion view of the divine feminine.  As she says, our ideas about the divine and who gets to speak on behalf of the divine effect the status of women the world over, as well as our own relationship to our sense of spiritual authority and trusting the voice of love we hear inside of us. Meggan is also the Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author of Mary Magdalene revealed, and her new book, The Girl Who Baptised Herself, explores the erased story of one of the first female ministers in the pre-patriarchal, Christ movement, a girl named Thecla who reclaims her power from within her, inside a society which entirely denies her worth, so that she can ascend to the life that's meant for her, and what her story can teach us all about how to claim our worth, and the lives that we desire. We explore:Why Meggan often gets called a whore - as well as a lot of other colourful names - for teaching about the ancient gospels that were erased from the new testament by Constanine in the 400AD, so that the idea of male succession could have legitimacy.Writing as a spiritual practice, and how Meggan became the woman she needed to be to write this book.What Thecla's story can teach us about how to honour the divine in a way that includes the female body, particularly in a world where the reproductive rights of women and people with wombs are being taken away. ---Receive our free video training: Love Your Cycle, Discover the Power of Menstrual Cycle Awareness to Revolutionise Your Life - www.redschool.net/love---The Menstruality Podcast is hosted by Red School.

“You should listen to your body” — but what does that actually mean? In this episode, we're breaking down one of the most common (and confusing) pieces of advice in the intuitive eating space: how to actually understand how food makes you feel. If you've ever thought, “I want to listen to my body… but I have no idea what I'm listening for,” this one's for you. We walk through the real-life barriers that block us from tuning in — like busyness, distraction, diet rules, and self-worth — and then guide you through simple ways to reconnect with your internal cues. From digestive reactions to emotional responses, energy levels to satisfaction, we cover the full spectrum of physical and mental signals your body gives you after eating. In this episode: How to check in with simple prompts like “pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral?” What to notice beyond fullness: energy, mood, digestion, and more How to move from food rules to body trust Real-life examples (including some funny ones!) of how tuning in changes everything Whether you're just starting your intuitive eating journey or want to deepen your connection to your body, this episode will give you practical tools and new perspectives to explore.

Be guided today in a mini-workshop on hand mudras as you deepen your inner wisdom through touch. Your hands are not just tools for manipulating the external world; they are intricate extensions of your nervous system, deeply connected to your brain and your subtle energy body. In ancient wisdom traditions, particularly those like Yoga and Ayurveda, hand gestures known as mudras are understood as powerful keys to specific energy flows and states of consciousness.

In today's episode, Darren and I open up about some of the most pivotal moments in our health journeys—times when we had to go against medical advice and follow our intuition instead. From stopping a surgery that could have taken a turn for the worse, to insisting on a second opinion after an MRI was misread, we share real examples of how advocating for yourself (or your loved one) can literally save a life. This isn't about ignoring doctors—it's about remembering you are the expert on your body. You're allowed to ask questions, get second opinions, and pause when something doesn't feel right.

Claudia is joined by Caroline Williams to learn about the cutting-edge science of interoception – that's how the brain interprets signals that come from inside our body. We find out how honing this skill can sometimes be helpful and why at other times it can have a negative impact on us. Tuberculosis remains one of the deadliest infectious diseases worldwide but in Malawi a stage 3 trial is under way to develop a new vaccine. Our reporter Carrim Mpaweni checks-in on the trial's progress. Also on the show, Claudia speaks to psychotherapist Sophie Scott about how to persuade a loved one to get professional help when they don't want to.Presenter: Claudia Hammond Producers: Katie Tomsett & Helena Selby Studio Manager: Giles Aspen

On today's episode of the podcast, we talk about listening to your body. Listening to your body is advice we  give our clients all the time, but what do we mean by that and how do we do it? Our body is always talking to us, we just need to understand its language, which takes effort and discipline.  We discuss the various ways to listen to your body, and tools to help you regain that connection. In this episode, we discuss: Why Listening to Your Body ImportantHow to Listen to Your Body Intuitive EatingTune In to Your DigestionCravingsMenstrual CycleMental Check InSleep Check In RecoveryThe Power of Learning to Listen to Your BodySources Cited:Podcast Episode: Intuitive EatingPodcast Episode: Food Tracking 101Podcast Episode: The Gut-Brain Connection: How Digestive Health Affects Fitness & Performance - An Interview with Amber Rice-Horvath, CNWant More?Join our Newsletter Online Nutrition Coaching Join our Facebook Group1:1 Fitness Coaching Get 3 Weeks of Nutrition Support for FreeFree Knee Pain Training GuideGet Hundreds of Movement Demos on Our Youtube Channel

It can be hard to listen to your body when it's telling you what it needs. In today's episode, you are going to reflect on the biggest obstacle that stops you from hearing your body when it speaks. When do you feel disconnected from your body? Is it when you're stressed? When you don't have enough time for yourself? Or when outside voices are too loud? You'll explore that all today.

Episode 238: Almost It, But Not Quite- Learning to Say No to the Almosts | In this episode of The Yoga Inspired Life, Shayla dives into the quiet discomfort of those “almost” moments — when something looks perfect on paper, but deep down, just doesn't feel aligned.Whether it's a relationship, opportunity, or life decision, sometimes the hardest thing is walking away from what's close— especially when you're tired, hopeful, or being cheered on. But holding out for alignment isn't a delay — it's a declaration.Through personal stories and soulful reflections, Shayla invites you to trust your body's wisdom, honor the pause, and remember that your “no” is making space for a better yes. The real thing won't require convincing — it will feel like peace.Connect with Shayla✨ Activate Align Expand Guided Journal & PlannerActivate Align Expand ProgramActivate Align Expand Affirmation DeckInstagram: @shaylaquinn YouTube: www.youtube.com/shaylaquinn TikTok: @shayla.quinn Website: www.shaylaquinn.com Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/shaylaquinn Learn more about TYIL Program

When pushed to the extreme, how do you know when to listen to your body warning you to stop, and... The post Listening to Your Body (#982) first appeared on The God Journey.

One of the biggest barriers to us getting the things we really, really want are the mixed messages we send to ourselves. We want it, then we're not sure we do. We want it again and then we don't think it will work out. We definitely want it, but then we can't do it because it's risky.  When we want to go in a certain direction, we won't reach our desired destination this way. Instead, we need to be fully committed and completely in alignment - not shaky or wishy washy.  The missed messages take different forms - maybe it's doing a push and pull, making excuses not to take action, or just dipping our toe in. However it manifests, this creates a tangle in our energy system and that keeps us from having any momentum.  When we fully commit to something and go all in, that's when we experience the magic of the universe conspiring for us, but it starts with taking our whole selves into the decision.  If we treat what we want like we deserve it and believe the world is there for us to go after it, that's when the magic happens!  How do we use body wisdom to figure out the direction we want to take? How do we fully commit to something? In this episode, we talk about how to find alignment so we can make decisions with less internal friction.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Make what's going on in your mind real  How do we use movement to role play walking in each direction towards the thing we want or don't want? -Thank you for self-selecting  The safest place to get feedback is from people who are in alignment themselves. How do we identify who is in integrity and who definitely isn't?  -Recognize your inner yes and no In our early years, we're taught that our own experience doesn't matter so we lose trust in what we're experiencing. Why does that make it hard for us to know what we really want?   About Your Hosts Katie Hendricks, Ph.D., BC-DMT, is a pioneer in body intelligence and conscious loving with over 40 years of experience.
