Join Ailey Jolie and Jenna Ward, a feminine embodiment coach and founder of the School of Embodied Arts, on this episode of In This Body. Together, they explore the transformative path of returning to the body as a site of power, pleasure, and profound self-awareness. Jenna shares her journey from clinical pharmacist to embodiment practitioner, offering insight into how feminine embodiment became both a personal healing practice and a professional calling. The conversation touches on the role of disembodiment in navigating systemic oppression, the politicisation of the body, and the ways we reclaim our power through sensation and presence. They also discuss the intersection of spirituality and embodiment, the importance of language, and how collective liberation begins with personal connection. This episode is an invitation to experience embodiment not just as a concept, but as a radical, lived devotion. We hope you enjoy the episode.
