In this powerful conversation, Faith Clarke sits down with Alesia Galati—podcast host, business owner, wife, and mother—to explore how discomfort shows up in our bodies and impacts how we navigate relationships and power dynamics. Alesia shares her journey from growing up in a single-parent home affected by addiction, through 10 years in a cult disguised as a women's program, to building multiple successful podcasts and a full-service podcast management agency.
What We Discussed:
How women's bodies teach distress tolerance through periods and other physical experiences
The complicated relationship with "push through" messaging after cult trauma
Moving from knee-jerk reactions to slowing down in moments of discomfort
How childhood experiences shape our automatic responses to conflict
The importance of mitigation versus avoidance strategies
Parenting in the age of AI and teaching kids to sit with questions
Book recommendations for understanding different perspectives on discomfort
The power of sitting with someone through their coping mechanisms
