  • She had been outsourcing control and knowledge of her body to the "experts" ever since she was a child. And even in becoming a "body expert" herself, she still was experiencing an internal disconnection from her body that became amplified during the birth of her daughter and her postpartum experience. She felt deeply that something needed to change.

    She needed a sense of belonging and ownership within her own physical experience of life. Somatics, and specifically Hanna Somatics, has been a powerful doorway to regaining and actually creating an embodied sense of self and personal authority within her!

    Today, I have with me Zoe Hewett, a yoga teacher, exercise physiologist, and mother of two who recently graduated from the Radiance program. She’s here to take us through how Hanna Somatics has impacted her life, career, and experience of motherhood.

    In this episode, Zoe takes us through:

    - Her traumatic birth experience and how she felt disconnected from her body and power.

    - Her somatic exploration journey and how she found it profound and empowering.

    - Her journey through the Radiance program and what she learnt, including honoring her own knowing, asking for what she needs, and setting boundaries.

    - How the subtle, slow, Hanna Somatics movements allow the nervous system to release chronic tension patterns layer by layer.

    - How she incorporates somatic principles when working with clients healing from injuries.

    - How both effort and rest are beneficial, and finding the balance is crucial for preventing burnout and injury.

    - How healing happens in a non-linear, quantum way as we renegotiate the past and build new capacities in the present moment.

    And so much more!

    Zoe Hewett is an exercise physiologist, Bikram yoga teacher, and mother. As a former elite athlete, via the PhD experience, and by observing her daughters’ early years, movement, and the study of movement’s effects on the human experience, has been her language for most of her life. In recent years she discovered somatic movement, which then distilled into a focused dive into Hanna Somatics, which presented a whole new - yet old! - way of treating stress and chronic pain.

    Living with the benefits of her own evolving somatic movement practice, Zoe can’t help but share somatic principles with clients in both her exercise physiology and yoga work. She is excited to see where her life work takes her as she continues to work with people from a whole person, somatically aware perspective to facilitate each individual’s self-healing journey.

  • So much of what we experience culturally and what is happening in the larger scope of the world today can feel indigestible. Especially if we seek to handle it mentally. Being able to metabolize the suffering, dysfunction, and pain of the world is better attempted through our whole body and beingness.

    Today, I’m incredibly excited to host Toni Nagy, a comedian, and dancer who harnesses the playful power of interpretive dance to navigate deep and often heavy topics with both sincerity and humor.

    In this fun and casual conversation, Toni Nagy takes us through:

    - Her innovative artistic expression through the comedy of interpretive dance.

    - How she discovered the power of movement in a countercultural environment, contrasting with her sports-oriented upbringing.

    -How starting dance later in life and being “bad” offered its own benefits

    - How she marries interpretive dance with political and social commentary in her comedy routines to create a unique and engaging form of artistic expression.

    - How she views the realm of somatics from her unique perspective.

    - Her “inner masculinity” and how she channels that into her comedy and as a helpful tool in her personal life...

    -parenting tips, astrology snacks, and so much more!

    Toni Nagy is a stand-up comedian and content creator most known for her viral videos where she interpretive dances her philosophies while pontificating, gyrating, and questioning culture.

    She has 600,000 followers across her social media platforms, not that she's counting or anything. Her comedy is quasi–radical, pseudo-philosophical, somewhat existential, and mostly funny.

    Observing Toni’s work is like micro-dosing shrooms, but then an hour later, wondering, "wait... was that actually a macro-dose!?" She's directed and acted in numerous films and written multiple award-winning screenplays, and is the founder of Cavelight Productions. Nagy has performed stand-up at the Comedy Store in LA, Flappers LA, Elysian Theater LA, Greenwich Village Comedy Club NY, the Improv Boston, Laugh Boston, Next Stage Theater Vermont, the Palm Springs Comedy Festival, and the infamous "Sweet" show at the Chelsea Music Hall in NYC.

    The Broadway Comedy NYC club twice voted her “Best New Comedian.” She is currently on a national tour performing a two-person multi-disciplinary comedy show with her 13-year-old daughter entitled “Go To Your Womb!” It’s like a PG-13 acid trip you’ll later want to process with your therapist.

    She is also on tour with her one-person show “Men, Come Inside of Me,” a comedy show during which she embodies all the men that have come inside of her, both metaphorically and literally. Toni relates to the men that have come inside of her and connects to them on a heart, soul, and genital level. Her effort to uncover these men is entwined with her desire to understand them, as well as herself.Social Media https://www.tiktok.com/@toni.nagy https://www.instagram.com/toninagy/ https://www.facebook.com/toninagycomedyWebsiteshttps://www.toninagy.com/https://cavelightproductions.com/
