Show Summary
In this deeply meaningful conversation, Mitch and somatic practitioner Lisa Loiseau explore the often invisible world of functional freeze, survival mode, fascia, and nervous system healing.

A professional Social Worker that has experienced burnout, collapse state, and tried to survive this life. I was operating in more masculinised and survival based way, which showed through movement, thinking, perceiving, talking, operating, sensing, feeling qualities. I have always sensed there is something bubbling underneath, driving my presence on this Earth, that is perhaps meant to come out and express itself differently, as I am suppose to do things.
