HERE’S WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THIS EPISODE:

Public speaking isn’t just about the words we say—it’s about how we embody confidence and presence. In this episode, Kate Kilian shares how somatic healing transformed her from a high-achieving but disconnected professional into a grounded, magnetic speaker. She opens up about the moment she realized she was ignoring her body’s signals, leading to burnout and self-doubt, and how reconnecting with her body helped her break free from perfectionism and fear.

We explore how somatic work taps into the body’s wisdom, unlocking clarity, creativity, and authentic expression. Kate explains why mindset shifts alone aren’t enough and how unprocessed emotions can create subconscious blocks that hold us back. Through practical exercises, she guides us in tuning into our body’s signals, releasing fear, and cultivating a natural, powerful presence. Whether you struggle with stage fright or want to speak with more impact, this conversation offers game-changing insights to help you step into your full potential.
