Finding Expressive Freedom Through Somatic Voice Work with Stacy

In this episode of Infinite Earth Body, I interviewed my long-time friend, Stacy, an amazing community organizer, abolitionist, healer, musician, and educator.

We talked about:

• Somatic voice work and finding freedom of expression
• Healing generational body trauma
• Stacy’s journey in healing work—from reiki, body work, to vocal sound healing
• The major death-rebirth process of transitioning into motherhood
• Cycle tracking for contraception  and radical education for embodiment
• The healing power of water
