#95 Movement and Embodiment as Keys to Access our True Self with Melayne Shayne

Melayne is a Budokon Mixed Movement Athlete and founder of the Warrior Women Tribe. She is the VP of the Mixed Movement Arts System Budokon and Director of the Budokon Yoga Program and Teacher Training. We speak about movement as a tool for self-exploration and as an invitation to think about how we exist in the world as a whole. We touch on imposter syndrome, sexuality, non-monogamy, and unpack the warrior woman archetype, as well as the mother archetype. We also discuss community and how it acts as a mirror, plus how moving toward fear and risk provides us with an opportunity to grow.

This podcast isn’t about finding answers, it’s about asking the right questions. How can we reinvent ourselves and the narratives we’ve been expected to inherit? How can we take ownership over the ways we participate in our own suffering? How can we move beyond victimization and into empowerment? How can we fix ourselves to fix the world? It’s time for new dreams, new stories and new futures…
