Embodied with Anthea Bell
Welcome to Embodied - the podcast for those who want to live an alive, examined and powerfully connected life.
I’m your host, Anthea Bell - Embodiment Coach, Public Speaker and lifelong spiritual healer. I believe passionately in the innate power of human beings to heal and expand - to grow beyond their perceived limits, connect to deep feeling as much as thought, and express the raw potential that utterly changes lives. So this is a podcast about exactly that: the journey into deep authenticity, aligned being, told through individual stories of powerful transformation.
Each week, alongside my own reflections, you will hear from leading voices within holistic health, wellness, entrepreneurial & creative spaces. Experts in their field, chosen for their capacity to inspire and lead through example and skill. These are people living at a profound level of “awakened connection” - guiding their audiences and you through courage, presence and deep intention.
Together, we explore their personal histories, the challenges that changed them, and the practices that help them stay grounded in embodiment. Through powerful and intimate conversations, we'll arm you with strategies you need to build a life you truly love.
Expect deep-dives on mind-body connection, nervous system regulation, belief & identity and emotional wellbeing. Learn how to connect to yourself on a daily basis, how to come home to abandoned or rejected parts, how to form intimate bonds with others and connect to a power greater than yourself. Spirituality will be as important as “living in the world” - learning to navigate our complex society and intense pace with a level of balance that keeps you centred and self aware.
So - sit back, tune in and replenish: If you’re tired of overthinking, over-trying and craving the deeper connection that allows you to come home to yourself, this is your place. We’re so grateful you’re here.

The Most Honest Conversation Yet - Your Host Anthea Bell, in the Spotlight
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode is a special one.
As our final episode of the season, we’re turning the spotlight inward. For the first time, your host Anthea Bell steps into the guest seat, and shares her own deeply personal story with Coach and Entrepreneur, Annabel Lane.
In this honest and powerful conversation, Anthea opens up about the journey from self doubt and not enoughness - to embodiment, healing and stepping fully into her voice. From early childhood patterns and people pleasing to navigating fear, visibility, anger and identity, this episode explores what it really takes to grow beyond the versions of ourselves we’ve out-stripped.
You’ll learn about the important role of crisis in transformation, the reality of fear when stepping into your potential, and why so many of us stay stuck in compromise instead of choosing authenticity. Anthea shares how somatic healing and reconnecting with the body became a turning point in her life, and why true change is not about perfection, but about willingness to face what feels uncomfortable.
If you’ve ever questioned your worth, held yourself back, or waited for permission to take up space, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are and gently challenge you to step forward into your own beautiful light.
We hope you’ll love it: let us know what lands.
