Nature of Surf Women
Nature of Surf Women is a multimedia project that centers on the relationship between nature and women, highlighting the ocean's transformative impact on individuals and communities.
Encompassing a Coffee Table Book, Photography Prints, and Live Panel Discussions, we are thrilled to unveil our latest venture - Nature of Surf Women
Podcast.
The inspiration behind launching this podcast emerged from numerous requests to capture live panel discussions. However, due to the complexity of recording live events, we've chosen to embark on the podcast journey instead.
"Nature of Surf Women - Waves of Women " podcast embarks on an emotional, adventurous, educational, supportive, and honest journey, featuring conversations with creators, scientists, explorers, artists, healers, therapists, moms, and chefs—all deeply connected to the ocean.
Our discussions will delve into themes like self-esteem, solidarity, creativity, and sustainable living, aiming not only to improve ourselves but also to harmonize with the world around us.
We'll introduce a new topic every month and welcome your suggestions for future episodes. Send us your ideas via DM on our Instagram
@nature_ of_surf women, we'll connect with the right people to join us on the podcast.
Hosted by Ivana Bajic, author and producer.

Nature of Surf Women
When the Body Speaks: A Journey Through Shame, Healing, and the Ocean

In this episode of Nature of Surf Women, we dive into a powerful conversation with Marcela, somatic trauma facilitator, movement teacher, and founder of Fierce Embodiment.
Marcela’s journey didn’t begin in the world of healing. Like many ambitious women, she built her life in the fast-paced tech industry—traveling, working, achieving—until her body began to speak through chronic pain and discomfort. Instead of pushing through, she chose to listen.
What followed was a profound shift. Through her own healing, Marcela discovered the intelligence of the body as a gateway to understanding trauma, emotions, and the patterns we carry within us.
In this conversation, we explore
How trauma, shame, and fear live in the body
Why healing is not always about “fixing,” but about awareness and presence
The hidden shame around aging and how to redefine it
The healing power of the ocean and the connection with other surf women
This episode is an invitation to slow down and listen to your body.
