The Path Back Home with Sara Duigou
In this episode I talk to Somatic coach and movement practitioner Sara Duigou. Sara helps people who are feeling stuck navigating major life events to reconnect with their body so they can experience more self-trust, increased capacity and a renewed sense of possibility.
In this episode we discuss…
Sara’s current season of life - raising neurodivergent teens alongside following her soul work and going through peri-menopause as a neurodivergent person herself.
What somatic work is and what it means to come back home to the body and why Sara was called to go down the coaching route after years of teaching movement in different forms.
Why this work is so crucial at this time on the planet and how community holds the key to the onward path.
How Sara takes care of herself as a practioner, and some of her favourite ways of coming back to ourselves when we have lost our way.
The importance of safe space, and what it means to be trauma-informed in the world of coaching and space holding.
Ways we can hold ourselves through intense emotions and how to manage our stress response when we are in fight, flight or freeze.
And so much more…

In this episode I talk to Layla O'Mara is a writer, mother and acupuncturist living at the foothills of the Wicklow mountains in Ireland.
In this episode we discuss…
The season of life Layla is finding herself in right now; identifying with the daffodils, wild garlic and Spring energy as well as a shedding the ‘shoulds’.
Layla’s journey to her true heart work and what she feels deeply called to create in the world.
How she weaves together all the differing threads of her passions and heart work to birth her upcoming memoir.
Understanding the topography of our bodies and how the body holds the stories of our lives.
How having an understanding of her Human Design has expanded Layla’s awareness of her creative process and how to live in a more aligned way.
Layla’s non-negotiable self-tending practices and rhythms that help protect her energy.
The importance of trusting your gut and finding your own voice yet also sourcing the right people to listen to when starting on a writing journey.
