In this week’s episode, Marni welcomes Christina McMahon, PhD, a love coach and certified somatic counselor who has been empowering individuals to overcome their inner barriers to love and life through the power of somatic healing. With a background in academia, Christina made the bold decision to leave a tenured university position to follow her passion, now helping hundreds of singles embrace love in a transformative way. She’ll take us through how listening to our bodies, especially in times of change, can lead us to our most authentic selves. This episode dives deep into the concept of somatic healing and how listening to our bodies can catalyze massive life shifts. They’ll explore the idea of breaking down barriers by connecting with bodily sensations and understanding how trauma can lead to profound transformation.

Somatics and the Body’s Signals (10:15)

Recognizing these physical patterns allows for a more profound understanding of personal history, unlocking the potential for growth. By tuning into these bodily sensations, we can begin to trust the signals our body sends, guiding us toward the healing we need.

"Each pattern we develop has a survival instinct behind it... our body holds the memory of what we need to heal."

Breaking Down to Break Through (17:45)

It’s in the moments of greatest distress that clarity can emerge, providing the opportunity to realign and rebuild a new direction in life. These breaking points often serve as gateways to deeper personal transformation, allowing us to create a life aligned with our true desires.

“It was like the worst day of my life, but it was also the most pivotal because it put me on a different path.”

Emotional Energy and Healing (25:00)

Somatic work teaches that emotions are energy, and blocked emotional energy creates physical and emotional pain. When people allow themselves to feel emotions—especially the ones they avoid like sadness or grief—they make room for healing and forward movement.Emotions like anger often mask deeper feelings like sadness. By embracing these, transformation occurs, shifting from emotional stagnation to personal freedom.

“Underneath your anger is probably sadness... the sadness is the golden nugget we need to heal.”
