Want to feel safer in your body, embrace your voice, and be ok with taking up space? Listen in as Mandi and Keean explore how being present and reconnecting with your body can transform emotional wounds into self-love. 

Join host Mandi Pratt and psychotherapist Keean as they discuss the role of movement, witnessing emotions, and reframing shame in finding freedom and empowerment after trauma. Discover practical tools to feel safer in your body, embrace your voice, and take up space again!

LESSONS LEARNED

Self-Love Requires Presence
Being present in your body helps you witness yourself and create space for healing.

Movement Heals
Reconnecting with your body through movement helps release emotions, build confidence, and take up space.

Shame Masks Deeper Emotions
Shame often hides emotions like anger or grief. Reframing it helps access and heal those feelings.

Emotions Aren't Threats
Separating emotions from past trauma lets you respond to them in healthier ways.

Healing Is Gradual
Recovery happens step by step with practices that feel safe and personal to you.
