In this episode of Founders, Future, with host Zach Young, Tara Jo Kadlec — founder of Love Your Journey — shares her journey from 23 years in the fitness world to a 12-year practice in transformational energy healing and intuitive guidance. Tara Jo walks us through how modalities like BodyTalk, Emotion Code/Body Code and somatic work helped her heal personal health crises and pivot into a practice that holds deep, witness-based space for women navigating trauma, chronic illness, caregiving and complex family dynamics. She explains why she focuses on women, how listening to the body surfaces stored trauma, and how honest, curiosity-led healing can unlock real transformation.

The conversation also dives into how Tara Jo structures her work — a mix of one-to-one retreats, group programs, and flexible “audio coaching” containers (Voxer/voice-note style) that make support accessible for busy caregivers and people with health limitations. She shares the power of sacred group spaces, the magic of nature-based retreats (Banff as a recent example), and her future goals: more bespoke retreats, continued advocacy and support for the Down syndrome community, and scaling offerings that honor energy capacity and sustainable integration. This episode is a heartfelt guide for listeners curious about somatic healing, energy work, and designing supportive containers for deep personal change.
