🎧 New Podcast Episode: Permission to Heal
A conversation on compassion, care, and what real support looks like
What does it mean to give yourself permission to heal?
In this episode of Permission to Heal, Wendy sits down with Victoria Duarte and Janice Landfair to explore how healing arts like Reiki, massage, and somatic support are helping people navigate cancer, caregiving, and life transitions.
This isn’t a conversation about fixing or powering through. It’s about making room—for rest, for grief, for nervous system care, and for the quiet strength that comes from being supported instead of stretched thin.
We talk about:
What compassionate, trauma-informed care actually looks like
Why caregivers need just as much support as those they care for
How somatic and energy-based practices support the body during crisis and recovery
The role of presence, touch, and community in making healing feel possible
If you're going through a hard season—or supporting someone who is—this episode offers steady, honest insight and practical ways to care for your whole self.
