Your Body Knows
Your Body Knows is a podcast for women ready to return to their bodies to find what was never truly lost — their power, their truth, and their way forward. Hosted by somatic life coach and writer Shanetta McDonald, this podcast explores the messy, beautiful work of healing, self-trust, and becoming at home in your own skin. Through real conversations, coaching insights, and personal reflections, you'll learn how to listen to your body’s wisdom, rewrite old narratives, and build a life that feels aligned — not just good on paper. Whether you're navigating a transition, feeling stuck, or just starting to ask bigger questions, this is a place for your real self to land. Your body already knows the way. Let's listen.

Your Body Knows
What Is Somatics? And Do You Really Need Coaching or Therapy (or Both)?
In this solo episode, I’m breaking down two of the questions I get asked the most: What is somatics? and What’s the difference between coaching and therapy? We’ll explore how your body communicates with your brain (spoiler: it’s way more than you think), why I weave somatic practices into life coaching, and how coaching and therapy can work beautifully together. If you’ve ever wondered which one you need, or how to listen to your body’s wisdom more deeply, this one’s for you.
