About this listen

Content Note: This episode includes open conversations about women’s health procedures, trauma, and healing. Please listen gently and take care of yourself as needed.In this deeply personal conversation, Erin and Jess explore the truth that the body holds the score. Inspired by Bessel van der Kolk’s groundbreaking book The Body Keeps the Score, they reflect on how trauma is carried within the body—particularly for women navigating health procedures and medical experiences that can feel invasive, uncomfortable, or even silencing.Together, they open up about their own experiences of stored trauma and share how somatic practices have supported them in releasing what words alone could not. From embodied movement to vocal expression, they discuss the ways the body can become both a vessel for holding pain and a portal for profound healing.This episode is raw, honest, and empowering—an invitation to reconnect with your body’s wisdom and find gentle pathways back to wholeness.If you need support, please reach out:
