Bridging Worlds: True to Somatics, True to Coaching with Nathan Blair
Description
In this episode of Radio Somanaut, host Whitney Dawn Pyles welcomes Nathan Blair, founder of The Somatic School.
What begins as a celebration of and deep dive into The Somatic School’s recent honor from the ICF (International Coaching Federation) quickly evolves into a deeper exploration of the recognition’s roots and a celebration of the contributions of Somanauts.
Nathan and Whitney dive into the threads that connect us, the ripple effects of somatic coaching on individuals and society, and how Somanauts are helping to bridge a fundamental divide that has impacted helping professions to this point.
Whether you’re a seasoned coach, curious about somatics, or seeking inspiration, this episode celebrates the impact of collective effort and the growing momentum behind somatic approaches.
