Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

338 🧠 Heal Your Nervous System, Rewire Painful Patterns & Release Trauma with Brooke Bralove
Q: Describe a typical ART session and what someone can expect.
An ART session involves eye movements and visualization with little to no talking, guiding the client through desensitization and then creating a positive, preferred memory so that the original trauma loses its grip; most clients experience resolution within one session.
338 🧠 Heal Your Nervous System, Rewire Painful Patterns & Release Trauma with Brooke Bralove
Q: So take us back to your breakdown to breakthrough story and what led you to ART.
Brooke describes a traumatic breakup in 2017, the long healing road, and discovering ART as a rapid, body-focused method that can update distressing memories in a few sessions, leading to empowerment and a broader mission to help others.
339 💧 Heal Your Pelvic Floor: Ditch the Kegels & Tighten Your Tinkler with Christina Walsh
Q: My first question for you is, do women want to tighten the tinkler? Do they want a tight tinkler, a loose tinkler, or do they want to be like Goldilocks and have just the right tinkler?
Women typically want functional strength and a balance that feels just right—neither overly tight nor too loose—so they can move and breathe comfortably while supporting the pelvic region.
330 🌿 Find Your True Nature: Ayurveda, Mind-Body Types & Midlife Resilience with Heather Grzych
Q: Ayurveda, what is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is a nature-based form of complementary medicine that uses herbs and food as medicine to balance the body's systems, prevent disease, and tailor lifestyle practices to the individual's unique constitution (dosha).
332 🌿 Is Your Food Triggering Your Anxiety? Healing Stress, Cravings & Trauma Through the Nervous System with Luis Mojica, Author of Food Therapy
Q: Luis, can you share your childhood journey and how it led to your current work?
Luis describes growing up intersex, facing bullying and trauma, which led him to explore how food, emotion, and the nervous system interact. His turning point came through music and embodiment work, which helped him reconnect with his body and begin a healing process that informed his later work in nutrition and somatics.
