The Unfuckwithable Woman
Welcome to The Unfuckwithable Woman - a podcast for the woman reclaiming her power at the root.
This is not your average healing podcast. Here, we return to the wisdom of the body, unearth the truth beneath trauma, and rise from the deep compost of colonisation, patriarchy, perfectionism, and pain. Hosted by Briony Montgomery, somatic therapist, mother guide, and founder of The SomaTherapy Collective, this is where we explore healing not as performance, but as practice - a revolutionary return to yourself.
Season One: The (re)Sourced Woman
This foundational season is for the woman who is tired of bypassing her body and ready to embody her roots. We explore nervous system repair, embodied grief, intergenerational healing, the myth of regulation, archetypes, somatic safety, the power of rhythm, and remembering your wholeness in a world that profits from your disconnection.
Whether you’re a practitioner, a mother, or a woman navigating the messy, sacred terrain of becoming - you belong here.

When the world speeds up, our bodies brace. In this deeply grounding episode, somatic therapist and guide Briony Montgomery maps the nervous system through a trauma-informed, decolonised lens and shows why regulation isn’t compliance-it’s power. We explore how fight/flight/freeze/fawn show up in everyday life (snapping at kids, doom-scrolling at midnight, code-switching to feel safe, shutting down during hard conversations), and how to move from panic to presence without bypassing grief or rage.
You’ll learn:
- The polyvagal map, made livable-ventral (connection), sympathetic (mobilisation) and dorsal (shutdown), and how we shift between them all day.
- Functional freeze & collective trauma fatigue - why so many women feel numb, unseen, and “on” all the time, and how to thaw safely.
- Sacred rage vs. dysregulated anger - how regulated rage becomes a boundary-building force for protection, clarity and culture-change.
- Real-world regulation - simple, body-first cues (breath pacing, orienting, contact, consent, pausing) to respond instead of react.
- Being unfuckwithable - not armoured or detached, but rooted: present, discerning, and unmovable in your values even when life is chaotic.
This is a nervous-system homecoming for women who are done performing “fine” and ready to reclaim sovereignty in their bodies, families, communities, and work.
