Deep Practical Play: (Some) Benefits of Following Energy

Host and lead somatic energy teacher, Staci Boden opens today's episode with a brief reflection about the shift with the podcast into following energy. From there, she offers a quick somatic practice, introduces her guest, Miki Johnson,  and explore some deep, practical and playful benefits that come from following energy.

Miki is an ICF-certified leadership coach, a somatic energy guide, a 7Directions dance ceremony facilitator, a business founder four times over, and the mother of two amazing little boys. Through her career, ranging from journalism and marketing to employer branding and enterprise sales, and now her coaching and facilitation work, the connecting thread has been to lead with curiosity, to listen for the story under the surface, and to look for unexpected connections.

Based on her long relationship with following energy, Miki shares that following energy has led to a "whole life transformation" as a resource for:

Navigating an overwhelmed, stuck and spinning mind Learning to trust your decision making process Letting go of exhausting (codependent) over-giving Becoming an empowered and empowering business leader and momFeeling supported by something bigger, as if you're not going it aloneMeeting the crunch of daily mishaps with curiosity and playDeveloping the ability to navigate hard times, and the wisdom to know the difference
