EP. 9: Listen to Your Body: A Conversation with Jen Aks

from Life and Love by Design · host Odette Coronel

Sometimes we have to get to rock bottom before we make a change. My life coaching clients will sometimes come to me, telling me about the worst ways they’ve ever treated themselves, and they feel so incredibly guilty about it. They feel guilty because they didn’t trust themselves to make the right decision, and they don’t know how to find that worthiness in themselves again. Today, we’re going to work on how to listen to your body and restore that sense of self-worth, together, with a little help from this week’s guest.Jen Aks, is an embodiment coach, author, thought leader, and founder of The Power of Gesture®, a groundbreaking bodyset practice that has helped thousands of women since its 2020 inception. While mindset helps us shape what we think, bodyset connects us to what we feel—offering a direct path to authenticity, presence, and confidence.In this week’s episode, we’re talking about how to listen to your body and get back to who you truly are. Jen Aks argues that we are not broken, and this practice of listening to our body is not about fixing ourselves, but restoring what is already within us. By listening to our bodies, we can start to heal the worthiness wound that we’ve been ignoring for too long. Tune in to Jen’s episode to hear all about her rock bottom moment and how she’s been restoring her self-worth for herself and for her coaching clients.  Follow Jen on:Instagram @jen_aksWebsite: www.jenaks.comPurchase Jen’s book, Your Body Is Speaking, here!Check out Jen’s TEDx Talk: Your Body's Hidden Intelligence: From Mindset to Bodyset | Jen Aks | TEDxFolsomFollow Odette on:Instagram @‌odettecoronelcoachingTikTok @‌odetterelationshipcoach   LinkedIn: Odette CoronelWebsite:www.odettecoronel.comHow to work with Odette:Sign up for Odette’s Life Coaching Services here! Sign up for Odette’s Relationship Coaching Services here! Podcast production for this episode was provided by CCST, an Afro-Latina-owned boutique podcast production and copywriting studio.
