Youâve likely heard about the âwhole body yesâ and âwhole body noâ, and maybe even practiced using these to make your decision-making process a little easier. But choosing is really hard when we donât feel that nudge from our body wisdom, and we just feel âmehâ about the whole thing.
When itâs not a definite yes or no, weâre stuck in limbo, and thatâs a dangerous place to be.
Learning to locate ourselves within a moment of indecision can be as simple as taking a breath. It interrupts the patterns of anxiety, fear, and adrenaline, and that creates a whole new structure for us to make a decision that is based on our actual wants.
How do we figure out what we want when itâs not a whole body yes or no? In this episode, we talk about the quickest way to cut through indecision.
Finding your ânoâ actually opens a space for âyesâ. -Katie Hendricks

-How to identify your energy source
Whatâs the difference between introverts, extroverts, and INTIMATE extroverts?
-The space between a whole body yes and a whole body no is limbo
When we feel ambiguous about a choice, how do we find the answer by locating ourselves?
-Learn to trust your inner signals
A lot of our confusion and doubting our own experience is the result of mixed messaging we receive as children. How do you identify your wants when all you know are the rules and regulations of what we were told to do?

The old way of showing up to work meant shoving our emotions away, not being vulnerable and putting on a facade of confidence, no matter what. Admitting you were afraid, unsure or overwhelmed? That was an absolute no-no.
The problem is, this also meant we were showing up without a lot of the intelligence we actually need to have emotionally healthy workplaces and great results.
Today, we give our emotions a seat on the team, we tap into the intelligence of our feelings, and we are vulnerable when we feel afraid or uncertain. Not only does this create a new way to work, but a new language for living. It allows us to band together as teams and face this rapidly changing world as an emotionally intelligent unit.
How do we invite emotional intelligence to work? Why must this process start with committed leaders? In this episode, co-founder of The Conscious Leadership Group, Diana Chapman shares how work is changing for the better and how we can start working alongside our feelings.
Vulnerability in leadership is now an act of courage, not an act of weakness. -Diana Chapman
Four Things Youâll Learn In This Episode
-The intelligence of fear
Itâs okay to say âI donât knowâ, âIâm doing the best I canâ - how do we demystify being vulnerable and what impact can it have on even the bottom line?
-Pay less in âdrama taxâ
Teams cut off from their emotions pay a lot in âdrama taxâ. How does this weigh our teams down, and how can we create awareness of this dynamic and get our team out of reactivity?
-The rise of bottom-up leadership
The old way of introducing changes to a workplace was for leaders to tell people what to do. Why do leaders need to commit to befriending their feelings before anyone else?
-Teach the class
If something we donât want happens, how can we use play to recreate the situation and laugh our way to creative solutions?

Moving house, they say, is one of lifeâs most stressful events, but it doesnât have to be. Sure, it stirs up a ton of emotions and learned patterns, but with the right awareness and intention, it can be a magical time and a beautiful voyage to a new world.
We can discover new parts of ourselves, deconstruct feelings as they come up, and treat the move as a trampoline to jump into the future with ease and excitement.
Moving to a new home also reveals something deeply rooted in us. The way we navigate all transitions surprisingly tells us a lot about the biggest transition weâve ever made - being born. With curiosity, we can examine this pattern and use this time to heal ourselves.
How do we move with ease and essence? How do we honor all the difficult emotions that come up, while also celebrating this amazing transition?
In this episode, we talk about how a situation most people find chaotic and stressful offered many beautiful moments to be, play, and love!
Youâre going to continue moving through life in the same way you first learned to make transitions unless you change the pattern. -Katie Hendricks
Three Things Youâll Learn In This Episode
-Accompany your whole self to the new place
When we commit to revealing rather than concealing, we get access to all these delicious tools that allow us to move through transitions with greater ease. How do we bring that forth?
-Turn towards each other
If weâre experiencing a transition with a significant other, how can we create a shared space of safety, nurturing, and celebration?
-The work works

This just in: science has confirmed what weâve known (and have been practicing for years) about the power of paying attention to our body sensations.
In a world of doom scrolling, depression, anxiety and fear, the solution lies within - in the amazing treasure chest we have in our bodies. We have an inner garden of sensory data, feelings, embedded experiences, and subconscious communication but many of us are cut off from it because we live in our heads.
When we make our bodies our friends and drop into that body wisdom, we instantly unlock liberation, readiness, creativity, engagement, and the ability to move through everything from discomfort to fear and complex traumas.
How do we trust and key into the wisdom our bodies already possess? What gifts does this inner landscape hold for us? In this episode, we talk about a recent article that proves the power of investigating what our bodies tell us, and simple ways to start checking in daily.
Whatâs going on inside you offers such guidance and wisdom and if youâre able to listen to it, youâre adding a whole new color of paint! -Sophie Chiche

-The power of keying into your body
How do we learn to give attention to our body sensations - even the slightest catch in our throats - and describe our inner landscapes?
-Your body is your friend
Why doesnât society want us to tap into our bodyâs wisdom? Why are we conditioned to live in our heads?

Donât mix prints, youâll stand out too much. Donât wear horizontal stripes, it makes you look wider. Wear what looks good, even if it doesnât feel good. Behind every woman is a rigid set of fashion rules that stifles our expression, creativity and keeps us from accessing the play that comes with fashion.
What if we took the inside out approach to fashion - starting with our essence and letting our fashion choices flow from that?
Imagine if we could stand in front of our closets every morning and think of ourselves as the canvas and our clothes the paint that expresses who we are.
How do we break fashion rules and create rules around our expression instead? How do we use our inner noâs and yesâ to dress in a way that feels good? In this episode, we talk about looking at fashion through the lens of expression, healing and self love, all the while supporting your true essence to be seen.
Stand in front of your closet as if youâre the canvas. -Sophie Chiche

In the world of sports, many people think that the energy of competing is the most powerful thing we can tap into. But thereâs actually a higher level to play the game at, and thatâs coherence. Instead of being reactive, and playing like weâre in a pinball machine, we can tap into presence, flow and connection, and thatâs when everything just clicks.
We get to locate ourselves, play at our highest level and contribute to the game in a big way.
A great example of this powerful coherence could be seen during the SuperBowl this year. There was this distinct and noticeable moment where one team went from reactive chaos into a beautiful co-creation - and they won.
Whether weâre playing pickleball, playing an instrument or working, when we tap into that flow everything gets easier.
How do we presence ourselves and find the flow? In this episode, we share another powerful insight inspired by pickleball - the power of shifting into coherence.
My ability to be present affects my ability to play in a huge way. -Sophie Chiche

Seeking the approval of others, helping people without being asked, putting famous people on a pedestal. These behaviors might seem completely unrelated, but they are symptoms of the same thing - hero-ing. Anytime weâre not acting from our own inner value, weâre relinquishing our power to an external source, which is dangerous.
Hero-ing ourselves, or being heroed by others, could be a way to run away from our own genius. And it can actually be a sneaky manifestation of the upper limit problem. Hero-ing actually exacerbates that drama triangle even further, and makes it harder for us to stand in our own genius, resourcefulness, and worth.
What does self-hero-ing tell us about ourselves? How can we have opposing opinions and ideas without hurting one another, and without relinquishing our power to someone else? In this episode, weâre digging into the topic of hero-ing again and sharing why hero-ing ourselves is as dangerous as hero-ing others.
We are now so exposed, anyone can say anything, to anyone, at any time and that makes it harder to have boundaries. -Sophie Chiche
Three Things Youâll Learn In This Episode
-Why we become heroes
Are you being a hero because youâre unwilling to stand in your own light?
-A truth we have to face
Itâs important for us to stand in our own essence and value, but social media makes it really hard. How do we stay in our presence when anyone can tell us what they think at any time?
-Tiptoeing around someone can be a hero move too
How can we share feedback instead of criticism?

The shift from side hustle to entrepreneur, ghostwriter to author is in many ways, a shift from self-imposed obscurity to visibility and standing in our own worth. Many of us are conditioned to promote others, be in the background, obligate and accommodate to a point where we end up not taking up the space we deserve.
When we become the face of something, weâre vulnerable to everything, and thatâs a scary step to take. Letting ourselves become visible is the act of self-realization that brings forth our true genius. Itâs easier said than done, but it is worth it.
This week we explored the âhow toâ of stepping in with Kristen McGuiness, co-founder, Vice President, and Editor-at-Large of Row House, a disruptive publishing imprint at the intersection of wellness + social justice. How did Kristen go from ghostwriter in the background to stand in her own individual power? How is she balancing creativity with motherhood and entrepreneurship?
In this episode, the founder of Storyboxing and bestselling author of 51/50, talks about her journey and how she was able to stand in what sheâs good at.
I do believe that children are a great source of self-realization. I wanted them to see who I really am, I didnât want them to grow up with a version of me that wasnât my greatest potential. -Kristen McGuiness

Take criticism, they sayâŠit will be good for you, they say. Our culture has led us to believe that criticism is the price we pay for genius and that itâs the only way to learn what we need in order to be great.
Thereâs one problem though: no one learns and improves when theyâre in fight mode. We canât access flow or genius when weâre frozen up - itâs impossible to get better when weâre getting beat down. All it does is create a fear of not performing, being good enough, and of being a failure.
There is a way to learn, improve and access greatness thatâs much kinder. Itâs feedback, - finding appreciation and turning towards life instead of cowering in fear of failing or being seen as incompetent.
How do we shift away from self-judgment and do better through self kindness? What shuts down our ability to learn new things and how do we turn that around and invite life in?
In this episode, we talk about a recent pickleball experience and what it taught us about learning new things and getting better at what we love.
Fear is a crossroads. If you let it take you over then you donât do the thing you set out to do, and you just end up with regret. -Sophie Chiche

Connection is the ultimate antidote to loneliness and addiction, but in our world, it eludes so many. The rift between our inner landscapes and how we describe them to each other makes it hard for us to tune into one another, and so weâre stuck in small talk, restrictive words, and nothing that truly nourishes.
We want to get our true feelings across, but the words we use regularly donât describe them well enough, so weâre left with limited language.
Could learning to use better descriptors of our inner worlds be the solution? Some of the most powerful ways to connect and be understood is using embodied language - âcold feetâ, âlump in my throatâ, âpit of my stomachâ. These phrases allow for a circulation of actual experience and emotion that goes deeper than saying âIâm fine.â
How do we expand and express our inner vocabulary? In this episode, we talk about how to solve addiction and all the other side effects of disconnection.
Most people arenât aware that the paucity of our descriptors for inner life has an impact on our creativity, and also our relationships with others. -Katie Hendricks

When it comes to wealth, it seems like there are two camps our society tends to put people in: those who make an impact doing what they love, but donât make a lot of money, or, those who make a lot of money, but donât make an impact and hate what they do.
Itâs easy to get caught up in the paradigm that if youâre trying to earn money and work in your zone of genius, youâre asking for too much, that itâs simply not possible to have both.
What if we could shift to having not just enough, but plenty while doing what truly makes our hearts sing?
Our understanding of money is a key area where a lot of destructive beliefs dwell.
Thatâs because, inherently, we think money is bad, so wanting to earn more must make us greedy and evil. How do we do away with the beliefs we accumulate and inherit about money and value?
In this episode, we talk about a whole new way of seeing money and why itâs not only powerful, but necessary.
People end up doing jobs they donât like and then make âhobbiesâ out of what they really love. -Sophie Chiche

-You can have impact and wealth
Many people feel unfulfilled because they earn money doing something that isnât in their zone of genius. Why is the concept of earning money from the height of your expression so hard to wrap our heads around?
-An âenoughâ move vs. a âplentyâ move
If weâve inherited the idea that we never have enough money, how can we use a mantra to shift into abundance?
-An opportunity to reweave your wholeness
A money mantra works best when youâre working in integrity, so how do we plug and repair our integrity holes?

Photography can be used in many ways, but in its most magical form, it can formulate a different lens through which we can see ourselves. This lens can access our realness and beautifully reflect it back to us.
When we look in a mirror, we might start to criticize ourselves, but when we look at a photo that truly reflects our essence, we canât help but celebrate ourselves and see all the amazing things people see in us.
When a photoshoot is set with this intention, it creates an energy that basically stretches time and creates flow. And when itâs in a room with people who treasure your essence, that makes it even better!
We recently had new photos taken for this podcast, and the whole experience really affirmed the idea of being, playing and loving and the immense power it has. Today we share what we took away from that moment.
I donât think thereâs anything more exciting in the world than someoneâs authentic expression. -Katie Hendricks

In the journey towards our most expansive, genius self, one thing likes to trip us up - our upper limit. Youâll see it in every culture, no one goes unscathed. If youâve ever noticed how your big mess ups happen after something good happens - you might have an upper limit problem.
Anytime we grow, a loud alarm goes off in our subconscious. Our job is to integrate our âmore-nessâ so we can truly experience our own lovability, wholeness, and essence.
We have the wonderful treasure of becoming tuned in to our inner landscape, and that can help with the upper limit problem. Like a sophisticated heist crew, we can learn to move and expand without tripping that upper limit alarm.
How do we identify our upper limit problem and make changes without tripping it? How do we let go of our superficial seeing-ness so we can identify energies in people?
In this episode, weâre joined by Gay Hendricks, and we talk about his new book âYour Big Leap Yearâ, how to deal with the Upper Limit Problem, and the beautiful story of how he and Katie met!
The upper limit is our ability to handle more and more things going well. -Katie Hendricks

-Sneak expansion in
How do we create slivers of creativity small enough so that we can expand without tripping the upper limit?

When the world is shaking and there seems to be suffering everywhere we look, itâs really easy to sink, to think âwhatâs the useâ and shut ourselves off from joy and beauty.
Experiencing our aliveness is the act of balancing the awful with the awesome, and learning to let different feelings flow through us.
Our emotions come from one faucet, we canât just turn off one without turning off all of them, so learning to carry opposites not only allows us to participate in life, but to also be of the highest help and service to those that need it.
Itâs possible to feel different emotions and move through them quicker by allowing them rather than embellishing or layering the sadness and dread with a story.
How do we learn to ride the wave of emotions? How do we balance our sorrow with joy, without feeling guilty?
In this episode, we talk about not just experiencing but expressing happiness when faced with misery.

Ever noticed how our bodies are these incredible, self-sufficient chemists? Adrenaline, our homemade super drug, rushes in when urgent demands and life's drama unfold. It's a potent surge, but it's a fleeting high that leaves us wanting more, every single time.
But here's the real kicker â there's another player in town, often overshadowed by adrenaline's allure. It's what we call actual life energy. Instead of negativity, conflict and speediness, it brings calm, connection, collaboration and truly, deeply being in our bodies.
For so many people, the cheap cousin of life energy is better because it keeps them from letting life in. The real gold lies in actual life energy. Itâs an enriching source of fuel that never runs dry.
So, how do we make the shift from adrenaline to life energy? And why should we think twice about relying solely on our thoughts to make choices?
In this episode, we're delving deep into the realm of identifying life energy and making it your ultimate source of vitality. This is where the true magic happens.
Lots of people just donât experience their feelings and the vitality they provide, so they need a lot of extra stimulation from outside to feel alive. -Katie Hendricks

When weâre squarely in our Zone of Genius, work doesnât feel like work. It feels like play, flow, ease; weâre plugged directly into Source. Unfortunately, todayâs world of work isnât about play. Itâs all process and productivity, âweâre doing serious, important work here, thereâs no room for fun.â If it feels too easy, we must not be doing anything worthwhile.
Thatâs how we end up slipping out of the zone of genius and into the zone of competence. The work starts to feel like an effort. But itâs not only a possibility for play to make its way into process, itâs actually where the most creative, collaborative and powerful work takes place.
How can we identify when weâre slipping out of our zone of genius? Why does play need to be invited to work?
In this episode, we sit down with business leader and proponent of play at work, Tina Scala to talk about how we can make the zone of genius less elusive.

Being a hero is celebrated and even coveted in our culture, but if we dig into it, itâs actually not a positive thing.
Humans have this magnificent impulse to share and give - the art of generosity. But this incredible ability can easily run up against the need to be the hero. Heroes swoop in and save the day, but it doesnât actually come from a good place.
Sometimes when we give in this way, weâre actually being driven by our puffed up, cape and Spandex wearing identity. True giving creates warmth, expansion and it doesnât make the recipient feel less than.
We have so much to untangle about the difference between generosity and playing hero.
So, the next time we want to do something good, how do we make sure itâs true generosity and not hero-ing? In this episode, we talk about the dark side of giving and how to make sure weâre doing it from a grounded place.
Is this an act of generating generosity or is it an act of not thinking the other person is competent or feeling superior? -Sophie Chiche
Three Things Youâll Learn In This Episode
-Generosity is all about abundance
When we swoop in and save the day like a hero, what are we actually saying about ourselves and what we think of the other person?
-The generosity of letting go
How do we give to others in a way that honors them and doesnât harm us?
-Expansion vs. elevating yourself
How do we identify those moments where weâre acting from that hero place? How do our bodies feel when weâre in true generosity?

An idea - whether itâs a business, a book, or a brand isnât just an object. Itâs a living dynamic organism that has come to us, and us alone, for a reason. This beautiful thing chose us to flow through and co-create with us, and thatâs a vision that needs no oneâs approval to bloom.
Itâs a completely different way of doing business, yes, but it is a more sustainable approach.
Resonance is two energy waves coming together - a Source-given match between creator and creation. Thatâs why the most resonant businesses come from within. Our bodyâs wisdom will always tell us whatâs resonant and whatâs dissonant. We need to have courage to honor whateverâs happening inside our body, regardless of what the external thinks.
Itâs a powerful practice, not just for being, playing and loving, but also for creating things that never stop regenerating. For Suzy Batiz, this model was a huge aspect behind Poo~Pourri. How did this idea come to her? How did she overcome the need for approval? How do we take this lesson from her and learn to trust our bodyâs wisdom (and actually listen to it)?
In this episode, weâre delighted to be joined by Suzy. She shares the journey sheâs taken, and why resonance should always be an ingredient in our creative process.
Having the courage to honor whateverâs happening inside your body regardless of what the external thinks about it. Thatâs the practice. -Suzy Batiz
Three Things Youâll Learn In This Episode
-The idea has its own desires
When built on resonance, the essence of our creation naturally amplifies out. Whatâs the danger in taking an outside-in approach?
-Warning: logic can be faulty
Our brains are powerful creation machines but why is the body more reliable?
-Mind the override
What happens when we ignore the resonant voice inside us in favor of making everyone else comfortable?

The transition from one year to the next always stirs up all sorts of questions and the obligatory subject of resolutions.
The problem is that we often go about it the wrong way. For starters, we donât bring completion to the last year, so we carry old energy forward. Then we think about creating what we want in a way that feels more like punishment.
As humans, our body wisdom can tell us a lot about what we really want. Surprisingly we ignore that part of ourselves when we set our intention for a new year.
If we change how we navigate the ending and new beginning, we wonât carry last yearâs energy into this year. We create what we want as our most expanded self. We pull the future into the present with ease.
In this episode, we discuss a two-part process to apply to the new year, and how to set sensory specific intentions.

Our inner voices can be the most loving, comforting and compassionate parts of ourselves. Unfortunately for many of us, they are the most critical, prickly, and unkind speakers. Itâs like our worst insecurities and fears are being played on loudspeaker over and over again.
It actually goes all the way back to the womb. Sound is the first sensation we experience - thatâs why itâs so hard to shift out of that auditory world, even if itâs entirely internal. If only there was a way to cut that voice off and replace it with something much more compassionate.
Thankfully, there is!
How do we silence that negative voice and find love and approval in ourselves? How do we stop doing things for peopleâs approval and start being for ourselves?
In this episode, we talk about why silencing our inner critic is so hard, and an easy way to bring about some much needed internal quietude.
Thereâs a connection between the sound environment and the sounds we continue to hear in our own heads. -Katie Hendricks
