What Is Embodiment? How Embodiment Found Me (Jenna’s Story)

That was true for me. Back when I was a hospital pharmacist, I had no concept of “embodiment.” But something in me longed for more. My body was trying to tell me that what I was living… wasn’t it.

The 4 Vulnerability Avoidance Styles
School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
If you’re craving more depth in your own embodiment or in the spaces you hold with clients, vulnerability is non-negotiable. It’s the key that opens us up to real intimacy and true transformation. When someone shares vulnerably with me—whether it’s a client, colleague or my child—I know we’ve reached the gold. We’re no longer hovering on the surface. We’re in rich, honest territory. But vulnerability can be confronting. It asks us to feel the tenderness, shame, or discomfort that many of us were taught to avoid. And so, we’ve developed clever strategies—mostly...

School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
This energy, this force, this dimension that so many of us feel called to… but struggle to define.
