068: Today, I’m joined by MJ Renshaw—breathwork facilitator, wife, mother of two, and best-selling author of How to Cry (and fellow splenic Projector!). MJ shares her powerful journey through sexual abuse, endometriosis, and early life trauma, and how she discovered breathwork as a pathway to healing, emotional release, and spiritual grounding. MJ’s story beautifully ties together physiology and spirituality, offering a reminder that the body holds both our deepest wounds and our greatest capacity to heal. If you’ve ever wondered how emotional release, breathwork, and pelvic healing are connected, this conversation will leave you with both science-backed insights and soulful wisdom.
