A guided somatic practice for high-achieving women ready to release an outgrown identity and reconnect with their body's wisdom. No experience needed.

In this episode, Glory Lichon leads a short, guided somatic practice designed to help you release the identities, roles, and pressure you've been carrying long after they've stopped serving you.

This isn't a traditional meditation. It's a body-based practice rooted in nervous system regulation and somatic awareness, built for women who lead with both strategy and presence. You'll be guided through grounding, a body scan, and a tension-and-release exercise that helps your body process what your mind has been circling.

This episode reflects the deeper work behind Glory's leadership philosophy: bridging external strategy with the inner work of embodied leadership, including nervous system regulation and somatic awareness.

In this episode:

  • Why somatic practice matters for women in leadership, not just wellness spaces
  • A guided body scan to notice where you're holding an outgrown identity
  • A tension-and-release exercise you can do anywhere, seated or lying down
  • How to know when a role or identity has "done its job" and is ready to be released
  • A short reflection to close the practice and integrate what came up

Who this episode is for: Founders, leaders, and high-capacity women who feel disconnected from their bodies, are moving through a season of change, or are craving a leadership practice that includes the nervous system, not just strategy.
