714. The Nervous System Survival Guide You've Always Needed – With Jonny Miller
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
Why is everyone wired, tired, and teetering on the edge lately? I sat down with nervous system specialist and host of the Curious Humans podcast Jonny Miller to unpack the physiological chaos so many of us are feeling. Jonny breaks down why our systems are overstimulated, how hyper/hypo arousal plays out in daily life, and what we were never taught about calming the hell down. We talk about phone addiction, loneliness, co-regulation, and what resilience really means in an AI-speed world. It’s a conversation that’s both calming and confronting—for coaches, leaders, and anyone trying to...

713. The Mindset Behind Muscle and Money - With Luka Hocevar
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
I sat down with Luka Hocevar, a former pro basketball player turned master fitness coach, to dig into why knowledge isn’t enough when it comes to real change. We talk nutrition myths, why people self-sabotage, and what truly drives transformation - from the gym floor to life at large. Luka’s got the science, the scars, and the stories to back it up. We also explore how trauma, belief systems, and even your environment play a massive role in whether your clients follow through… or fall off. This one’s not just for fitness fans - it’s for any coach or curious human trying to understand...

712. Beyond the Clichés: The Grounded Truth About Tantra - With Henika Patel
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
Tantra teacher Henika genuinely surprised me. Grounded, clear, and refreshingly free of fluff, Henika brings a practical lens to what’s often a misunderstood field. We discuss the overlooked connection between burnout and disembodiment, the role of sensuality in nervous system health, and why pleasure isn’t a luxury - it’s a resource. With a background in law and a deep understanding of trauma-informed practice, Henika offers insight into how we can reconnect with the body in a world that pulls us away from it. A valuable conversation for high performers, caregivers, and anyone feeling...

711. Burnout in Your Clients? Here’s What Coaches Need to Know - With Mark Walsh & Dr Helen Machen-Pearce
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
Dr Helen Machen-Pearce and I sat down for what we half-jokingly called a “Two Humans and a Robot” episode - because like many of you, we’re using AI tools like ChatGPT in our coaching work. But today’s real topic is something very human: burnout. We dig into what burnout really looks like, not just the textbook symptoms. Between us we’ve got decades of coaching, yoga, and life experience, and in this episode, we try to make sense of what’s useful out there (including from AI), and what still needs good, embodied, human insight. We cover the signs, subtle stages, and recovery...

I had the pleasure of speaking with Brian Trzaskos - expert in somatics, embodiment, and practical, sensation-based coaching. With deep roots in physical therapy and Tai Chi, Brian brings a grounded, intelligent approach to the body that immediately impressed me. After a short centering practice perfect for resetting after a busy day, we explore his “body-breath-vision” model, dive into how the nervous system really organizes itself, and unpack what it means to coach from a truly embodied place. Brian’s got some unique and genuinely useful methods, and I could’ve talked with him...

Performance coach Clay Moffat sits down with me for a no-holds-barred conversation on trauma, resilience, and the mind-body connection. With a background spanning the military, oil and gas, and neuro-linguistic programming, Clay brings a raw, insightful perspective to the ways trauma is synthesized by the nervous system - and how our perception can amplify its effects. Expect practical insights, a few F-bombs, and a refreshingly honest discussion on healing and human behavior.

708. How Embodiment Unlocks Business Coaching - With Anke Egger
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
I sat down with Anke Egger, someone with deep roots in embodied work, to talk about how the body offers more than just physical support - it’s a source of real insight for leadership, teams, and personal development. We explored how practices like aikido, yoga, and conscious dance can help people cut through the noise and actually get it, beyond the flipcharts and books. Anke shared her journey from academia to embodiment, how she brings that into corporate spaces, and why movement might just be the fastest route to change. If you’re curious about what it really means to lead from the...

707. Embodiment In Motherhood: Presence, Pressure & Staying Sane – With Rebecca Dollard
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
What does it really mean to be an embodied mother in a world that expects you to do it all — and smile while you’re doing it? Rebecca Dollard joins me to talk about the messy, beautiful, full-on experience of motherhood. From identity shifts to sensory overwhelm, and the myth of the ‘perfect mum’, this episode is a reality check with heart. No jargon, no pretending — just a deep, relatable dive into parenting from the body up.

The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Chérie Carter-Scott, a true pioneer in the coaching world and often called “the Mother of Coaching.” Chérie has been shaping the field since the 1970s, and talking with her was like getting a masterclass in wisdom, warmth, and straight-up presence. We cover how coaching has evolved, what makes someone truly coachable, and how culture shapes the coaching process. Chérie also shares stories from her life, insights on finding purpose, and reflections from her new memoir that ties her personal journey to her classic Rules for Being Human. Read more about...

705. Inside A Modern Psychedelic Church - With Brian Robertson and Graham Pilger
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
I caught up with my mates from Austin, Brian Robertson and Graham Pilger, the founders of a psychedelic church that defies all the usual stereotypes. We talked about creating spiritual connection without dogma, and how their community uses psychedelics to foster healing, transformation, and real human connection - with a healthy dose of humor. I’ve done their journeys twice, and they’re not culty, not therapy, and not just a trip. We dive into what actually happens at these events, how they’re integrating embodiment and trust, and what shifts when you bring your mum along for the ride....
