What if one of the most powerful tools for healing wasn't another strategy...but play?

In this inspiring conversation, Jeremy Greening sits down with leadership coach and play advocate Jodi Salmond to explore how burnout, identity loss, and life's hardest seasons can disconnect us from who we truly are. Jodi shares her deeply personal journey through relationship breakdown, burnout, and rediscovering herself through community, trust, and the unexpected power of partner acrobatics.

Together, they unpack why play isn't childish...it's essential. From rebuilding confidence and strengthening relationships to improving leadership and emotional resilience, this episode will challenge the way you think about healing and show you how small moments of joy can create lasting transformation.

If you've been feeling exhausted, disconnected, or like you've lost yourself along the way, this conversation will remind you that healing doesn't have to begin with a giant leap. Sometimes it starts with a smile, a laugh, or even a dance.
