Ep220 Body Work is Powerful with Jo Goddard
Description
This week I'm talking with Jo Goddard, founder of I'm Her Women's Wellbeing, a Brisbane-based wellness space specialising in touch-based modalities. Jo is a bodyworker, energy healer, and sacred sexological bodywork practitioner who holds space for women moving through all kinds of life seasons.
We covered a lot of ground. From what Kahuna massage actually is and why Jo calls it her "gateway drug," to the idea that touch isn't a love language, it's a survival language.
We also got into money. Jo's own money story, why barter and energy exchanges can quietly limit your business growth, and what it means to invest in yourself when everything around you feels uncertain.
If you've ever thought your relationship with money lives only in your head, this episode might shift that.
In this episode we talk about:
- What I'm Her Women's Wellbeing is and the range of modalities Jo offers
- The difference between Kahuna massage and Lomi Lomi — and why they're both more than just massage
- Why some women don't feel safe being touched, and what that's really about
- How bodywork helps process suppressed emotions — including rage and grief
- Jo's money story — how money was used as control in her family growing up
- Why barter and energy exchanges can limit your business, and when they genuinely make sense
- What Jo is seeing in her business right now — why discernment is different from scarcity
- The difference between "I can't afford it" and "It's not a priority"
