Trusting the Journey: 6 Powerful Episodes from Season 3 of Embodied
This season on Embodied has been one of the most intimate and transformational yet—and it’s still unfolding.
As we continue to explore the healing power of trust, I wanted to pause and highlight six powerful conversations that have resonated deeply with listeners so far.
Together, we’ve been asking big questions:
✨ How do I trust again after loss?
✨ How can I trust my gifts—when I’ve been taught to hide them?
✨ How can grief, creativity, or sisterhood become portals to healing?
These episodes are soulful, vulnerable, and full of wisdom—and whether you’re just discovering the podcast or have been following since the beginning, this roundup is a beautiful place to begin (or return to).
More episodes are on the way. But for now, I invite you to revisit these gems and reflect on what trust means to you.
1. Sensitivity as Inspiration with Prune Harris
Theme: High sensitivity, energy healing, and inner resilience
“Your sensitivity is not something to fix. It’s something to follow.”
In this season opener, Prune Harris—energy expert and author—shares how sensitivity, often seen as a weakness, can become a superpower. We talk about burnout as a rite of passage, the soul’s energy, and the importance of nurturing our tender places.
Why listen: This conversation will help you reframe sensitivity as a gift and open the door to deep trust in your body’s wisdom.
In this short clip, Prune shares how sensitivity—when grounded—can become a true source of strength:

2. Emotional Awareness for First Responders with Mike Sears
Theme: Healing from trauma, vulnerability in leadership
“If you’re asking whether you need help, you’ve probably needed it for a while.”

Why listen: A powerful reminder that emotional awareness is not a luxury—it’s a survival skill, especially in high-pressure roles.
