Jeremy is joined this week by returning guest Emily Lapolice from Integrative Wellness Therapies. Jeremy and Emily dive into the importance of unlearning harmful narratives around productivity, especially how capitalism and white supremacy have shaped our internalized beliefs about rest and self-worth. They reflect on the challenge of showing up authentically in both personal and professional roles while embracing nuance and imperfection. The conversation emphasizes giving ourselves and others grace, staying grounded in community, laughter, and a commitment to collective healing.
Emily is involved in a ton of great work, you can find her on Instagram, and check out her work with the Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga where she has an upcoming training. She is a faculty member at the Center for Trauma and Embodiment in Boston, and also the Director of Training at Move to Heal South Dakota, a Sioux Falls based non-profit that empowers youth in overcoming experiences of trauma through movement and culture-based healing arts, as well a Clinical Research Advisor at the Mind Body Trauma Care Lab out of the University of Minnesota Duluth, studying community-lead research and trauma-sensitive yoga applications with Indigenous and First Nations communities. Emily serves as a member of the Board of Directors for 2 Indigenous-led non-profits: Project Venture, a program of the National Indian Youth Leadership Project (NIYLP) supporting positive youth development through culturally responsive experiential education; and the Upijata Arts Center, nurturing creativity and artistic expression for the youth of the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube. To show your love for the show you can pick up some merch! We appreciate support from likes, follows, and shares as well!
