Ep. 70 In Your Own Skin: Somatic Wisdom, Safety & Early Imprints with Janet Evergreen

Welcome back to the HEAR HER with Heather Dressel podcast!

In this episode, I’m joined by Janet Evergreen—a teacher of body-oriented healing arts—for a deeply grounding, intuitive conversation about the wisdom of the body, early imprints, and what it means to truly be in your own skin.

We begin with a gentle grounding meditation before moving into a rich exploration of prenatal and perinatal experiences, the nervous system, and how intuition lives in the body long before words. Together, we explore boundaries, somatic awareness, and how healing can unfold slowly, kindly, and in relationship.

This conversation touched my heart so deeply I cried. Speaking with Janet was such an honor. She’s opened me to something so profound I didn’t even know existed. So often we talk about healing our inner child and inner teenager, what about your inner infant? The work Janet is doing is so profound and I can’t wait to share it with you!

This episode is an invitation to soften, come home to your body, and remember: your body knows, and you don’t have to do this alone.
