INTENTIONAL CONVERSATIONS ON INTIMACY, EROTICISM, AND EMBODIMENT.

Conversations with leading experts about the importance of embodiment in living an authentic life. In This Body asks the important questions: How does connecting to your body change your life? How will connecting to your body allow you to love better and live more authentically? And how does connecting to your body change the trajectory of our shared world? 

  • In This Body is a podcast dedicated to providing thoughtful dialogue to demystify the unseen influence of the unconscious in your life. Through consciously curated conversations with leading experts from across the globe, we’ll uncover the silent stories woven into the fabric of our lives, unlocking the door to genuine change and deeper authenticity. Everything your mind has not processed lives inside your body. Everything your mind has not processed will rule your life until it is revealed. Repeating patterns isn’t fate. You are not destined to live the same life as your parents or keep dating the same type of people. In This Body will support you to bring more awareness to the wisdom that is within your very own skin.
