When the Body Speaks: A Journey Through Shame, Healing, and the Ocean

In this episode of Nature of Surf Women, we dive into a powerful conversation with Marcela, somatic trauma facilitator, movement teacher, and founder of Fierce Embodiment.Marcela’s journey didn’t begin in the world of healing. Like many ambitious women, she built her life in the fast-paced tech industry—traveling, working, achieving—until her body began to speak through chronic pain and discomfort. Instead of pushing through, she chose to listen.What followed was a profound shift. Through her own healing, Marcela discovered the intelligence of the body as a gateway to understanding trauma, emotions, and the patterns we carry within us.In this conversation, we explore How trauma, shame, and fear live in the bodyWhy healing is not always about “fixing,” but about awareness and presenceThe hidden shame around aging and how to redefine itThe healing power of the ocean and the connection with other  surf womenThis episode is an invitation to slow down and listen to your body. 🔗 Explore Marcela’s work: Fierce Embodiment (Website): https://fierceembodiment.com SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fierce-embodimentNew Month, New Topics!
