S4E5: Moving Your Body

In this episode, we turn our attention to thriving in our bodies and physical health.  Laura welcomes our special guest, Bridgette Duncan, Founder of Slam Duncan Wellness. Bridgette shares her body movement journey and how her work in Pilates, stretch therapy, and breathwork has been a life-giving force not only for herself but for the Black women she works with in her practice.  She exposes us to other physical self-care options through her work, and   encourages us to move beyond being hyper focused on what our bodies look like to adopt a deeper understanding– moving your body is ultimately about deeper awareness and connection with yourself.   Bridgette affirms us to integrate pleasure into our physical self-care practice, and encourages us to listen to our needs, give grace, and be gentle with ourselves.  Tune into this affirming episode and then get up and MOVE!
