In this powerful conversation, Ste sits down with Steven Jaggers, a neuromuscular therapist and founder of Somatic Breathwork, who has helped thousands of people heal from chronic stress and trauma.

Together, they unpack the true meaning of “somatic,” why connection is essential to healing, how parents can support their children in expressing emotions, and what happens when we let go of the constant search for self-help and instead enter a state of genuine welcoming.
