In this Season 3 Finale episode of the Impostrix Podcast, I sit down with somatic coach Jen Chau

Fontn to explore the transformative power of somatic practices in the workplace and beyond.

We discuss how experiences of safety, belonging, and dignity impact our bodies and emotions, and how somatic awareness can help us navigate these challenges, yes, event at work.

We share about the importance of understanding our bodily sensations and emotions, especially in the context of race equity and anti-racism work. Highlighting the need for leaders and managers to embrace discomfort and cultivate a practice of reflection and growth, rather than seeking quick fixes.

Listen into the conversation as we share personal stories, insights on somatic practices, and practical tips for integrating these concepts into your professional life. Whether you’re a small business owner, an entrepreneur, or someone navigating workplace dynamics, this conversation offers valuable perspectives on fostering a more inclusive and supportive environment.

Key Topics:

Understanding somatic practices and their relevance in the workplace
The connection between bodily sensations and emotional responses

The importance of practice in personal and professional growth
