62. Unpacking the programming of Anxiety, Burnout, People Pleasing, & Perfectionism with Kathleen Hayes
In this episode, we have another guest, Kathleen Hayes!! Kathleen is an artist, a somatic coach & spiritual mentor, and a lifelong seeker of magic. Her journey led her from film school, to recreational therapy for children on the autism spectrum, to yoga teaching, to a master's in industrial & organizational psychology, and eventually, to coaching. After her lifelong anxiety and depression manifested as chronic pain, illness, and burnout, Kathleen quit her "dream" job (the safest one anyway), and dove into the world of somatic healing and spirituality, eventually becoming certified in Somatic Activated Healing. Her business, Embody You, is the culmination of this work, and her offering to all the sensitive kids who have forgotten their power. In this episode, we dive into all things somatic when it comes to being with anxiety, burnout, people pleasing, and perfectionism! Key Takeaways: How to start unpacking the programming Importance of grounding down somatic work Doing somatic work to expand your capacity to be with discomfort vs to make an uncomfortable feeling go away Unlearning who capitalism taught you to be to rediscover your authentic self Taking accountability for your healing Kathleen's prayer to you: May this work bring you closer to yourself, to the earth, and to the magic of all things. May you remember you own magic and wield it for a kinder world. May your healing ripple out to your communities and plant seeds in every heart you touch so that all being may be happy, healthy, and free.
