Hey there, it's Rohan. Have you ever felt stuck? Like you'd really like to make a change in your career

or your personal life, but you just couldn't move. Most of us feel stuck at one point or another.

And here's the interesting part. We actually already have the ability to get on stuck.

So why don't we do it? Our coaching partner better up, suggest that because we fear change,

we talk ourselves out of it. Maybe even overthink or overcomplicate the steps we need to take

to keep ourselves from taking action. Our internal antibodies to change, that is to say fear,

takes over. As a quick reminder, we're collaborating with Better Up by using meditative story and

the episode themes to coach you through challenges like getting stuck. If you're feeling stuck,

Better Up can help because here's what their coaches know. We like to think of ourselves as

rational beings, but what really motivates us is positively charged emotions that act as feedback

loops when we need to act. After today's meditative story, I'll share a brief exercise from Better

Up to kickstart the change you'd like to make in your life. This is Soul Curriculum, the companion

show to meditative story where we reconnect with our storytellers in a deeper conversation,

revealing the inner wisdom they shared. In this show together, we replay and reflect

on moments of transformation which you can apply to your own life.

How do the challenges and trauma we encounter in our lives tie to our ancestral roots?

How do we hold onto these experiences in our physical body? These are questions that I began to

explore for myself, listening to author, entrepreneur and yoga instructor Kino McGregor.

In her meditative story, Kino feels a sense of discomfort in her own body growing up in South Florida.

After losing her beloved grandfather, she eventually rediscoveres her body and learns the process

generational trauma through her yoga practice. It got me interested in the ways our body

store trauma and in exploring how to release it. Let's listen.
