About this episode
Join us for a meaningful conversation with Jamella Stroud, a somatic yoga therapist and founder of Sacred Soma Yoga and Therapy. Jamella takes a calm, grounded approach to helping people heal, especially those dealing with trauma, mental health challenges, or growing up around Substance Use Disorder. Her work is all about reconnecting with the body and finding peace through movement and breath.
We talk about her Exhale to Excel Yoga Program for students, her healing retreats in Bali, and what it means to truly listen to your body. Jamella reminds us that even in the chaos, there’s power in slowing down—and that sometimes, healing starts with simply remembering to breathe.
