The Embodied LeadHer
The Embodied LeadHer is a podcast for women who are ready to lead from presence rather than pressure.
Hosted by Glory Lichon, this podcast explores leadership as a lived, embodied experience—rooted in nervous system regulation, inner stability, and sustainable power. Through honest reflection, grounded conversation, and moments of pause, Glory invites listeners to step out of urgency and performance and return to what’s true.
This is a space for women navigating leadership in business, life, and the world—especially those who feel the pull to slow down, listen inward, and lead without self-abandonment. Rather than offering quick fixes or hustle-driven strategies, each episode creates space for awareness, integration, and conscious leadership that can actually be lived.
Whether you’re moving through uncertainty, redefining success, or simply longing to come back to yourself, this podcast offers orientation—not instruction.
No hustle. No proving. Just presence.
New episodes release weekly.
Listen when you need grounding, clarity, or a reminder of your own inner authority.

Regulated Power Reset Day 4: Releasing the Cost of Bracing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Many leaders carry tension they don’t even realize is there.
A subtle brace in the shoulders.
A tightening in the jaw.
A body that stays slightly prepared for the next request, the next decision, the next problem.
Over time, that quiet bracing can become your baseline.
You function well.
You lead effectively.
But your nervous system rarely fully settles.
In this episode of The Embodied LeadHer, we explore the hidden cost of bracing and how chronic nervous system tension can make leadership and growth feel heavier than they need to be.
Through a short guided nervous system reset, you’ll learn how to recognize subtle holding patterns in the body and gently release the tension that often accompanies responsibility and leadership.
This episode is for founders, executives, and high-achieving women who carry a lot of responsibility and want to lead with greater steadiness, clarity, and embodied presence.
Inside this reset:
• Why many women leaders unconsciously brace their bodies
• How chronic tension becomes the nervous system’s baseline
• The connection between nervous system regulation and sustainable leadership
• A short somatic practice to release subtle holding patterns in the body
When your nervous system softens, leadership begins to feel different.
Decisions feel clearer.
Your body feels more supported.
And growth becomes easier to hold.
Take a few minutes to pause, soften, and release the tension you may not even realize you’re carrying.
