Embracing Mess: In Conversation with tayla shanaye

Loam Listen

In our Season 3 inaugural episode, Loam Listen host Amirio Freeman connects with embodiment counselor tayla shanaye for an immersive conversation on somatics, semantics, and creation. This episode is an invitation into experience and so we suggest you tune into it when you have the time to truly ground (and get messy)!

Guest: tayla shanaye is a cis-gendered woman of color, a mother, a healer, a researcher, and a living body. She holds a Masters in Psychological Studies with a concentration in somatic psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies, where she is currently pursuing her PhD in Women’s Spirituality. She lives in the occupied Anishinaabek lands of the so-called Upper Peninsula of Michigan with her sun, partner, and elder 4-legged. She is committed to a loving relationship with the Living Earth, so that the land, waters, and seasons can do their good work of shaping her body and humbling her mind. You can find her @taylashanaye and at taylashanaye.com
