119. Gathering Bones: Reflections on Intuition and Inner Alignment | with host Emily Duncan Oct 07, 2021

Show notes

Goooood morning EMBody Radio family! Today we're here for the first solo episode in a long time. For today's show, I wanted to dig into some reflections from my readings and notes from a book that has been changing my life: "Women Who Run With the Wolves" by Clarissa Pinkola Estes, PhD. This episode in particular is reviewing the story of La Loba, The Wolf Woman, the collector of bones.

I'm digging into my reflections from this story and how it's played out in my life in real time (including some of my experiences in Sedona), some of the heavy emotions it's been guiding me through, and some of the "bones" of my own that I've been gathering. I've also included some question prompts for YOU all and I really invite you to sit (preferably with a nice cup of tea or coffee or whatever your thing is) and journal/reflect on them to improve your own self understanding, intuition, and inner alignment.

I hope you enjoy and you learn something about yourself. Thank you for listening.

117. Taking the Friction out of Fat Loss and Fitness and Keeping Your Promises to Yourself | Matt McLeod Sep 23, 2021

Show notes

Fat loss isn't meant to be rocket science... So why do we feel like it is and how do we fix that? Insert Matt McLeod, Registered Dietitian and fitness coach (and one of my really cool friends). In today's show, I wanted to pick Matt's brain about sustainable fitness practices, especially outside the context of tracking macros. We're digging in to a lot of the mental side of things (hint: that's where the magic is, not the protocol) and the importance of acknowledging where your goals fit within your values, adjusting your expectations to be in better alignment with your values, and keeping the promises you make to yourself within your fitness journey. There is so much power in this episode for anyone looking to finally reach their goals with less friction and more lasting progress.

116. Holding Yourself to a Higher Standard for a Badass, Fulfilling, and Authentic Life | with Kaylin Pyles Sep 16, 2021

Show notes

This one's for you if you need a (loving) fire lit under your ass. Today we're chatting with my friend, the amazing, bad-ass, no-BS Kaylin Pyles of The Higher Standard. The Higher Standard is a company dedicated to helping women get un-stuck and create a life they're obsessed with through fitness and personal development.

In today's show, Kaylin breaks down some of her origin story and how The Higher Standard even came to be in the first place (hint - she had to first realize she wasn't living to her OWN higher standard, or any standard of her own at all), how she uses the Enneagram for both personal and business success, getting real with yourself and honoring your commitments, building a brilliant brand, and so much more.

If you've been feeling stuck, uninspired, and hopeless while also KNOWING there's more for you out there but just aren't sure how to start, this episode was, quite literally, made for YOU.

115. The Basics of Birthcharts, Reframing Mercury Retrograde, and the Spiral of Fortune and Growth | with Brittany McMurray, Astrologer and Tarot Reader Sep 09, 2021

Show notes

In 2021, there's a fair chance you've seen (and maybe shared) at least one astrology meme circulating around social. Perhaps you've lamented over the trials and tribulations of the big, scary Mercury Retrograde (or in meme terms, Mercury in Gatorade). Maybe now you know your "Big Three." But... what does it all mean?

Today we're talking with my good friend Brittany McMurray: astrologer, tarot card reader, and seer who, in her words, "Doesn't tell you what to see, but rather, where to look."

We're breaking down the basics of birth charts, like your Big 3 and what they mean, what your different houses represent, and the overall "Blueprint of your Soul" in Brittany's terms; reframing Mercury retrograde and why it's actually an opportunity vs some cyclical cosmic curse; and talking all things growth, rebirth, relationships, Saturn returns, and navigating the wheels/spirals of fortune that show up in our own lives.

112. Self Trust, Making Massive Career Shifts, and Reclaiming Your Identity | with Lynette Hoyle Aug 19, 2021

Show notes

Have you ever desperately wanted to make a career change, but been too scared to take the jump? Today's guest Lynette Hoyle has been there too. Lynette and I became friends through social media way back when in the glory days of 2014 Fit-stagram. in 2017-ish after building and scaling her online coaching practice, Lynette, like many of us, became so frustrated with the ever changing Instagram algorithms and how they were impacting her business, so she hired her first ever business coach. Once she did, she was hooked... not just on fitness coaching, but with business coaching. Since then, Lynette has been on a journey of shifting out of fitness coaching and into business coaching, where she just recently made the pivot into business coaching full time. Today, we're talking about the journey from influencer to business person, how she knew it was time to pivot careers, developing self-trust, and how NOT to make ceviche (no, really, pay attention).

111. Male Factor Fertility, the Norms of Masculinity, and How to be Joyful | with Khaled Kteily of LEGACY Aug 12, 2021

Show notes

1 in 6 or 1 in 7 couples is going to face infertility. We talk about fertility as a women's issue as a society, but that's not the case… But, for heterosexual couples, it's just as likely for infertility to be coming from the male OR the female. Sperm quality isn't just an indicator of fertility, it's also a major indicator for male health. In today's show, we're talking with Khaled Kteily of LEGACY all about male fertility, the construct of masculinity and how it's changing and how we can help, common causes of male interfility and things that can hurt sperm health, how TRT can actually HURT your sperm health, and a candid conversation on creating more joy in your life and the things that steal from it.

Khaled Kteily is a former healthcare consultant at Oliver Wyman in Toronto and studied healthcare and public policy at Harvard University, where he received a full scholarship and graduated with disctinciton. Khaled has previously worked at the World Economic Forum in Geneva, where he had his work on the future of entrepreneurship published at Davos. He's also the owner and founder of Legacy.

Legacy is a digital first fertility clinic focused on male-factor fertility. Legacy empowers men with the ability to improve, test, or freeze their sperm at home without needing to go to a doctor's office or talk to someone if they don't want to. And, fun fact, if you're in New York or California, your insurance may reimburse you for using Legacy's product. THAT'S how cool it is.

Have you ever spent 10 full minutes in complete silence, no music, no journaling, no TV, no computer/phone, no humming, no talking, no... anything? I don't know if I have.

While Shane is better known for being the owner and founder of MUDWTR, a coffee alternative consisting of organic ingredients lauded by cultures old and young for their health and performance benefits, today's conversation centered around Shane's recent meditation experience and all the tangible takeaways from it.

In today's show, Shane takes us through all the lows and the highs of 10 days of complete silence, spending over 8 hours a day meditating, his journey of learning what some of his personal "drugs" are (including work and finding self-worth through his job), developing intuition and deeper physical and emotional awareness, Shane's passion for the wellbeing of his employees at MUDWTR, the future of entrepreneurship, deeper wisdom, and how the simple act of removing things from your life can actually give you more.
