Interview With Annabelle

On this episode of the podcast I have another client interview for you!

This is a conversation with one of my beautiful clients, Annabelle Sorensen. She is a life coach for young adults looking to live happier and more fulfilling lives.

Annabelle came to work with me after her father’s sudden passing to work with her nervous system to process the grief of losing him.

In this conversation, we talk about:

The mind-body connection in processing grief
Showing up authentically in your family

How working with your own nervous system can make family relationships healthier and more fulfilling for you

Religion
Perfectionism

And lots more!
