If you’ve ever been told to “get out of your head and into your body” and wondered what that actually means—this episode is for you.
I'm joined by trauma-informed somatic coach and former psych nurse Danelle Gallo (aka Nurse Nell) to explore how tuning into your body’s sensations—your somatic wisdom—can unlock a whole new level of healing. From navigating chronic illness to expanding your capacity for hope, grief, and joy, this conversation demystifies somatic work with clarity, warmth, and zero pressure to “get it right.”
You’ll walk away with:
- A grounded definition of somatic work and why it matters
- A 3-step process to “allow” uncomfortable feelings (and why that’s a superpower)
- The surprising truth about grief, hope, and the full-body wisdom your brain can’t always access
- A practical “do of the day” to help you make friends with your feelings today
Whether you’re new to feeling your feelings or a long-time inner work enthusiast, this episode is a gentle invitation to deepen the most important relationship in your health journey—the one with yourself.

This podcast explores health and wellness through the lens of autoimmune disease—multiple sclerosis (MS) and others—diving into how challenges like fatigue, brain fog, flares, and other symptoms related to the nervous system, inflammation, and mitochondria can be supported by healthy habits in food, movement, sleep, and rest, while fostering consistency, effective self-care, and a resilient mindset. If you’ve read the bestseller Atomic Habits by James Clear and still don’t have the healthy habits you want, this show is for you. Adjacent to functional medicine, holistic health, the AIP diet, and the Wahls Protocol, the podcast offers guidance from a health and wellness coach to help those navigating chronic illness feel better and thrive.
