Jane Hardjono: Feldenkrais, Nonfiction Writing & Ending the Compartments

In this episode of The Ridiculously You Podcast, our host Julie May sits down with Jane Hardjono, a book writing coach and embodiment practitioner, for a deep dive into what happens when we stop compartmentalizing our lives and start honoring our multifaceted identities. Jane’s journey is a beautiful rebellion against shrinking, spanning from classical music and advertising to painting, translating, and parenting across two hemispheres.Jane shares how she moved away from trying to be "equally great" at everything in separate silos to creating a unified practice that blends writing, movement (specifically the Feldenkrais Method), and coaching. We explore the messy parts of creative chaos and the "garbage-sauce" belief that we must streamline ourselves to be understood. Jane reveals that people don't get stuck because they lack ideas; they get stuck when they disconnect from their own timing and voice.This conversation is your permission slip to reclaim your personal agency. Julie May and Jane Hardjono discuss the power of psychological safety in the creative process and how the Feldenkrais Method helps writers access inner wisdom by connecting with their bodies. You’ll walk away with the courage to stop seeking external validation and start listening to your own intuition—because radical self-love is about bringing all the parts of yourself to the table.Want to learn more about Jane Hardjono? www.linkedin.com/in/janehardjonoWant to learn more about Ridiculously You or join our newsletter? https://ridiculouslyyou.comReady to join the Ridiculous Women Society and stop shrinking? https://ridiculouslyyou.com/womenWant to learn more about Julie May or book her to speak? https://thejuliemay.com
