Episode 55: Nonviolent Communication and Body Positivity with Clara Moisello

In this episode, Clara Moisello shares her journey from struggling with food and dieting and working in a challenging professional environment in science research to coaching people in Nonviolent Communication and body positivity. 

Clara shares the pivotal moment when she realized that dieting and the pursuit of weight loss wasn’t something she could do for the rest of her life. Her preoccupation with food and the scale was causing her anxiety and stress, which wasn’t improving her health.  

Clara explains what Nonviolent Communication is and how it can support everyone in bringing more compassion and acceptance in our lives.

Episode 54: Our Body Doesn’t Require Forgiveness with Jo Miller

On the podcast, Jo Miller and I talk about trauma and some of the paths Jo uses with her clients. Jo specializes in Sound, Deep Listening, Somatic Therapy, Shadow Work and Embodiment Facilitation in her practice. 

Jo offered some amazing insights, including: 

We can experience trauma on three levels; societal, community and personal. 

We don’t need to become whole, our wholeness is always present. 

We find and explore pockets of safety in the body and nourish them. 

Syncing with the rhythms of nature for healing helps us let go of our need to control.

Episode 43: Getting the Message Out around Social Justice and Body Acceptance with Chantal Roche

Chantal Roche lives, breathes and inspires hope in every person she connects with. In her role as the Diversity and Inclusion Manager for the United States Tennis Association of New England, she’s working tirelessly to fulfill the USTA’s mission: To make tennis look like America. 

Changing the ethos of tennis is no small feat, and the USTA is up for the challenge by offering tennis to a variety of socio-economic communities, including more people of color and welcoming all abilities onto the tennis courts. 

Chantal offers advice on combating racism and creating real social change: 1. Talk openly to friends and family about racism and acknowledge why incidences are wrong. 2. Seek out the diversity and inclusion manager at your place of employment and ask what changes are being made. 3. Check in with your BIPOC friends after incidents like what happened at the Capitol.  4. Look within and educate yourself around the history of BIPOC oppression and racism.  

The National Junior Tennis and Learning network supports over 250 nonprofits to bring tennis to over 160,000 under-resourced youths each year. You can learn more and support NJTL here.
