752. The Future Of Wellbeing Coaching - With Mark Walsh & Dr Helen Machen-Pearce
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
Dr Helen joins me again this week to unpack what well-being coaching really looks like in practice, and why it matters so much right now. We talk about burnout, ageing, energy, motivation, and how staying mentally healthy can feel like a part-time job in today’s world. We explore why health is always multifactorial, the dangers of one-size-fits-all advice, and how easy it is to get lost in supplements, trauma theories, or wellness clichés.

751. Why the Body Matters in Coaching - With Mark Walsh & Dr Helen Machen-Pearce
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
In this back-to-basics episode, I'm joined again by Dr Helen Machen-Pearce to explore what it really means to work with the body in coaching. We unpack common misunderstandings, and explore how embodiment offers real-time information, deeper presence, and a way out of endless storytelling. The conversation covers regulation, insight, action, and why so many coaching challenges come down to stress and capacity rather than mindset. We also reflect on the rise of nervous system coaching, the limits of learning through social media, and why embodied skills require practice over time. A grounded...

750. Why Embodied Coaching Still Matters in an AI World - With Rod Francis
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
Rod Francis joins me to explore what coaches need to learn as AI becomes more present in our work. We talk about embodiment as lived experience rather than technique, and why presence, unpredictability and felt sense are things machines struggle to replicate. We also get into transhumanism, Western culture’s tendency to objectify the body, and the deeper question of what it actually means to be human. We cover learning through practice, beginner’s mind, working responsibly with trauma, and the challenges of training coaches in a world where people arrive over-informed but under-practiced....

748. Why The Power Of Breathwork Matters More Than Ever - With Emily Ray Henderson and Simona Dvorackova
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
I sat down with two highly experienced breathwork facilitators, Emily Ray Henderson and Simona Dvorackova, to explore what breathwork actually does beneath the hype. We talk about why breath has become so central right now, from nervous system regulation and everyday stress, through to trauma release and altered states of consciousness. We explore how breathwork helps complete unfinished stress responses, why the body holds tension and memory, and how conscious connected breathing can release things without needing to analyse or relive the past. We also get into safety, facilitation quality,...

747. What Real Confidence Is Made Of - With Mark Walsh & Dr Helen Machen-Pearce
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
Dr Helen Machen-Pearce and I explore what real confidence actually is and why so much of what we call confidence collapses the moment it meets reality. We talk about the difference between confidence and competence, and why untested confidence often looks loud, brittle, or performative. We look at how confidence lives in the nervous system, not just the mind, and how embodiment practices like centering, grounding, strength, movement, and relaxation shape how we show up. We explore gender, class, culture, and age, and how confidence looks different across life stages. We also touch on...

746. From Dance Floor to Classroom: Embodied Teaching – With Flouer Evelyn
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
I sit down with Flouer Evelyn - one of the most skilled dance teachers I know and a long-time member of our Embodiment Unlimited faculty. We dive into what actually makes a great teacher: classroom management, clarity, time-efficiency, group regulation, and how to hold a room without killing the vibe. Flouer shares how she weaves embodiment models into her partner-dance work — from centering and co-regulation to elements, U-curves, and even sneaky ETK poses. We also explore follower/leader dynamics, nervous-system awareness in dance, working across cultures, and the real art of improvising...

We look at how Yugoslavia fell apart, why ordinary people can be pushed into fear and extremism, and how current migration and cost-of-living pressures are creating similar tensions in the West. We also get into land, belonging and the dysregulation that comes with cultural dislocation. A grounded, honest conversation about what really drives division - and what might help us move beyond it.

744. The Power Of Transformation Through Embodiment - With Mark Walsh & Dr Helen Machen-Pearce
The Embodiment Coaching Podcast
I sat down again with Dr Helen Machen-Pearce for a dive into transformational learning. We look at what actually creates real change, and why transformation has less to do with collecting ideas and more to do with how we experience ourselves in the moment. Helen explains how the nervous system, emotional safety and embodied presence shape the way people learn and grow. We talk about the difference between insight and integration, why some people stay stuck even with the right knowledge, and what helps learning go from conceptual to genuinely transformational.
