    Episode OverviewIn this episode, therapist and EMDR trainer Erica Bonham makes the case that trauma doesn't live where we think it does — not in what we know, but in what the body has stored, patterned, and organized around long before the thinking mind gets a vote. Erica and Ana talk through what it actually takes to build a nervous system with more capacity: not bypassing what's hard, but developing the physical ability to stay present to it, one breath and one contraction-and-expansion at a time.What We CoverWhy trauma "doesn't care what we know" — the difference between cognitive insight and what's actually stored in the body, and why knowing a boundary is healthy doesn't mean the nervous system will let you set oneFight, flight, freeze, and fawn as physical survival strategies, and what a body stuck in a low-grade, functional freeze can look like day to dayToning the vagus nerve as a literal physical practice — the same logic as building a muscle: it takes consistency, not a single good session, and it can be trained through yoga, breath, tai chi, or running with intentionA concrete grounding exercise: hand on the belly, attention two inches below and behind the navel, searching for the still point beneath the surface waves — and why she starts every practice in the lower body before the heartHow generational and ancestral trauma gets passed down, including research on epigenetic trauma transmission, and Erica's own work with EMDR and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy around patterns from her adoption that predate her own memoryHer EMBERS framework — Energy, Mind, Body, Emotions, Reaction, Senses — for tracing whether a pattern in the body is actually older than the person carrying itThe difference between breathwork used to build genuine capacity and breathwork used to bypass a feeling — and the research suggesting that "breathing through" anger can make people less assertive, and "breathing through" guilt can make them less likely to make amendsWhy nervous system regulation isn't a retreat from injustice or collective struggle, but the physical groundwork that makes it possible to stay present to it without collapsing or shutting downWhat actually happens in the body — the bracing, the defensiveness — when a word like "racism" or "patriarchy" enters a room, and why that felt response is more honest than the story told about it afterwardAbout the GuestErica Bonham, LPC, MA, is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado, a certified EMDR clinician, consultant, and trainer, and the founder of AVOS Counseling Center in Arvada, Colorado. She specializes in somatic and attachment-focused EMDR, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and nervous system regulation, with a practice focus that includes the LGBTQ community and trauma related to racial and social injustice, abuse, and spiritual harm. She is the author of Always Enough, Never Done: Volume I: Heal Your Nervous System, Turn Wounds Into Wisdom, and Cultivate Your Inner Badass, and a nationally sought-after speaker on trauma, embodiment, and collective healing.Resources and LinksAlways Enough, Never Done: Volume I - Erica's book on nervous system healingAVOS Counseling Center — Erica's practice, based in Arvada, Colorado, including her free Nervous System Reset Toolkit (11 polyvagal exercises and 6 guided meditations)Anne Lamott — sober writer Erica references for the idea of trusting the next right step even without seeing the whole pathThe Body Keeps the Score — the well-known trauma book Erica references, adding that in her field it's often said the brain keeps the score while the body is the scorecardCall to ActionSubscribe to Movement Is My Constant wherever you listen.

    Episode Overview In this episode, Brendan Cournane — a lawyer turned ultra-endurance runner and coach — talks about what it actually took to run 100+ marathons across all fifty states, seven continents, and all six World Marathon Majors, and why crossing every one of those finish lines never quite delivered the feeling he was chasing. A coronary artery disease diagnosis mid-training eventually forced him to stop, and to ask what all that mileage had really been for. What We Cover Growing up with a self-imposed sense that no accomplishment was ever quite enough — and how that pattern followed him from law school into decades of marathon runningTrading one coping mechanism for another: getting sober and replacing drinking with distance running, then escalating from three miles to marathons to fifty states to AntarcticaThe "false summit" as both a literal experience — watching daybreak reveal another peak above the one he thought was the top of Kilimanjaro — and a pattern that repeated at every marathon finish lineChasing runner's high and flow state, and why trying to hold onto either one tends to make it disappearThe morning during marathon training when a four-mile run felt wrong in a way he recognized wasn't just fatigue — and the coronary artery disease diagnosis, two stents, and pacemaker that followedLosing "marathoner" as a defining identity without losing the training and discipline underneath itDeep, diaphragmatic breathing as a physiological tool — how shallow chest-breathing keeps the body in fight-or-flight, and how slower breath work affects blood flow, the vagus nerve, and clear thinking under stressOvertraining and under-recovery — using Olympic swimmer Simone Manuel's months of enforced bed rest as an example of what the body does when effort isn't matched by restThe physical, felt difference between striving and acceptance, and starting as small as three conscious breaths a day when a full meditation practice isn't realistic Resources & Links Seeking Serenity: Finding Happiness by Embracing Your Present Attitude — Brendan's bookCoach Brendan — Brendan's coaching site, for anyone who wants to reach out directlyRichard Rohr — referenced for the line that a person who doesn't transform their pain will transmit itMihaly Csikszentmihalyi — referenced for flow theory and the nature of effortless, unforced performanceSimone Manuel — Olympic swimmer referenced as an example of overtraining syndrome and the recovery it required About the Guest Brendan Cournane is a Chicago-based running coach, motivational speaker, and practicing municipal finance lawyer. Since getting sober in 1989 and qualifying for the 100th Boston Marathon in 1995, he has completed more than 100 marathons, including one in every U.S. state, on all seven continents, and all six World Marathon Majors — a combination fewer than 250 people worldwide have completed. A coronary artery disease diagnosis in 2022, which led to two stents and a pacemaker, ended his marathon training and reshaped how he thinks about effort, recovery, and identity. He now coaches endurance athletes and professionals through Coach Brendan Running and is the author of Seeking Serenity: Finding Happiness by Embracing Your Present Attitude.

    Michael Herr: The Weight We Carry Up the Wall
    2026/08/19
    Episode Overview In this episode, therapist and climber Michael Herr talks about what actually drove fifteen years of climbing and a decade of boxing — and what happened when he watched a climbing partner nearly die and his body simply refused to climb again. Drawing on his book The Shadow of the Climber, Michael traces how shame and the need to prove something can power real athletic achievement, right up until the moment the body stops going along with it. What We Cover How fifteen years of climbing and an earlier decade of boxing were both, in Michael's words, about controlling his inner world through activities with real danger attachedThe witnessed climbing accident that left him unable to watch people lead climb, unable to go near ropes, unable to be in the mountains — a full-body trauma response, not a decisionWhy achievement can run on shame and a sense of inadequacy as much as on love of the sport, and what it feels like to reach a goal and not get "the stamp" — the cup with a hole in the bottomThe difference between movement as avoidance and movement as arrival, and how presence and avoidance can live in the same body on the same routeA boxing daydream Michael carried for decades — walking to the ring, facing a "monster" — and what happened when he finally stepped into an actual ring at 34Moving from cognitive behavioral therapy to depth psychology in his own clinical work, and what that shift cost his sense of professional identityThe idea of the "golden shadow" — what the people and pro athletes we admire are pointing us toward in ourselvesWhere Michael's relationship with climbing stands now: mostly on pause, sport climbing over alpine routes, and giving himself permission to move because he wants to, not because something in him is compelling it Resources & Links The Shadow of the Climber: The Psychology of Extreme Sports — Michael's bookCarl Jung — psychiatrist referenced for the original concept of the shadowPeter Croft — climbing legend Michael interviewed for the book, known for early hard solos in YosemiteDean Potter — free solo and BASE-jumping climber referenced in the book, who died in a wingsuit accidentTommy Caldwell — referenced for a line on using climbing as distraction from feelingRocky Mountain National Park / Longs Peak "The Diamond" — the Colorado alpine climbing Michael describes as the icon of the region About the Guest Michael Herr is a therapist and climber, and the author of The Shadow of the Climber: The Psychology of Extreme Sports. Trained originally as a cognitive behavioral therapist, his own clinical path moved toward depth psychology as he began to recognize how much of his climbing — and before that, ten to fifteen years of boxing — was shaped by forces he wasn't fully conscious of. He has spent roughly fifteen years climbing in and around Boulder, Colorado, with Rocky Mountain National Park as home ground. The Shadow of the Climber draws on his own climbing history, his clinical training, and interviews with figures in the climbing world to look at what pulls people toward extreme sports — and what those sports can end up covering for.
