Personal growth is the foundation of meaningful transformation — both for ourselves and the people we support. This episode dives into the crucial role of self-awareness and personal development for coaches, therapists, and healers. Alyssa Nobriga, an expert in integrating somatic practices with traditional therapy, joins us to explore why individuals often struggle to create lasting change. We discuss the role of shame as both a reflective tool and a catalyst for growth, and how somatic techniques can help break cycles of self-sabotage. You’ll gain insights into navigating the challenges of shadow work, celebrating your progress, and fostering a genuine approach to healing and supporting others. Whether you’re on a journey of personal transformation or looking for tools to deepen your practice, this conversation is packed with inspiration and actionable wisdom.
