There are people whose presence alone feels like medicine - Mallory Davidson is one of those people. In this episode, we discuss with Mallory about what it means to truly listen to the body. Her work blends craniosacral therapy, Reiki, intuitive guidance and nervous system repair - not as separate tools, but as one fluid language of support and reconnection. We talk about the spaces where healing naturally unfolds: in stillness, in slowness and in subtle sensations we’re often taught to ignore. Mallory shares stories from her practice and personal path, including how animals, grief and birth experiences open unexpected doors to clarity, release and remembrance. Highlights: * ‍♀️ What does it really mean to hold space and how can being witnessed in stillness spark deep healing? * How subtle bodywork and intuitive energy healing often create more lasting shifts than force or intensity. * How do animals help us regulate our nervous systems and teach us about presence? * Grief as a healing portal: how sitting with what hurts can open space for softness and surrender. * The importance of slowing down in a culture addicted to productivity. * What Mallory learned from supporting birth experiences and how the body holds onto early imprints long after we're born. * ✨ Why true healing doesn’t come from fixing, but from reconnecting to what’s already whole within us. * How does the nervous system communicate through sensation and why is learning to listen so essential? * Trauma-informed healing: Mallory explains why safety and alignment matter more than technique. * Why sensitivity and silence from an intuitive practitioner can often reveal the most.
