We never separate anyone from audience to performer because that isn't great for the vibe.

Summary Dr. Emy Tafelski, an integrative soul coach, specializes in helping women cope with significant loss. She shares her personal experience of losing her mother and discusses the process of healing and rediscovering oneself after such a loss. In this episode, you’ll learn about: Dr. Tafelski’s concept of the "soul as a tapestry" and its role in the healing process. The importance of allowing space for grief and emotions while engaging in grounding activities like connecting with nature. How long the self-exploration process takes. Dr. Tafelski’s four-phase process for personal growth and self-discovery, which can be done individually or in a group setting. Dr. Emy Tafelski is a licensed therapist turned integrative soul coach who helps women who have suffered an untethering loss reweave their souls into wholeness. Her work stems directly from her own healing journey following the loss of her mom which left her shattered and untethered. It is her mission to revolutionize how women transform after loss so that they can release what holds them back and reclaim their power. She believes that when women fully tend to their wounds (including those that come from the culture around them) and align with wholeness they are absolutely unstoppable. She offers transformative group and 1:1 Soul Weaving services. Noteworthy quotes from this episode: “There's a piece, particularly for women I think.  You know, I speak of untethered loss. I think women in general are sort of raised to anchor or tether to things outside of ourselves: whether it's a partner or Children or whatever. But I think that is one of the reasons why this works so important, right? Because when we experience something that untethers us and we lose that external tether, it gives us an opportunity to re-anchor and do it internally, which is a much more solid, a more permanent sense of self.” “Like attune... where we first create space for all of the feelings that we have because our culture does not make space for grief in the accompanying feelings.” Connect with Emy FREE Meditations: The Untethering Loss Care Package https://emytafelski.ck.page FB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090229196343 IG: https://www.instagram.com/soulweaving_dremy/ Web: emytafelski.com Connect with Paige Bond Instagram: @paigebondcoaching Facebook: @paigebondcoaching Website: www.paigebond.com Paige Bond hosts the Stubborn Love podcast, is a Licensed Marriage Therapist, and is a Polyamory Relationship Coach.
