Grief is not a problem to be solved. It is an initiation, a teacher, a sacred reckoning. In this tender episode, Briony Montgomery takes you into the landscape of embodied grief - the kind that lives in your nervous system, your bones, your motherline, your voice.

This episode is a love letter to the grief you’ve been taught to silence. The one that arrived when you lost someone or something. A version of yourself. A dream. An identity. The mother you never had. The care you never received. The vitality you forgot you were worthy of.

Briony weaves together personal story, somatic healing, and the frameworks of The SomaTherapy Collective to explore:

  • What happens when grief is left unfelt and how it shapes your body
  • How the nervous system holds unspoken, ancestral grief
  • The link between grief, rage, and reclamation
  • Practices to alchemise grief through the body, not bypass it
  • Grieving as a political and spiritual act of returning to wholeness

If you’ve ever felt numb, disconnected, or like you’re holding back tears you don’t understand, this is for you. Let this episode hold you, crack you open gently, and remind you that grief is not weakness, it is power in its most honest form.
