In "Supporting Whole People: ADHD through a Somatic Lens", host Whitney Dawn Pyles is joined by Tessy Beckené, ADHD coach and counselor, and Lucy Carliel, somatic coach in training diagnosed with ADHD in adulthood.
This conversation weaves personal experience, professional insight, and somatic wisdom to ask:
What becomes possible when we move out of performance and into permission?
🌀 Tessy shares her shift from assessment-based, system-limited work to relational, body-oriented coaching grounded in regulation, co-regulation, and self-acceptance. 🌀 Lucy reflects on receiving an ADHD diagnosis in adulthood and how somatic work has supported reconnection—without pressure to fix or optimize. 🌀 Together, they name the relief of spaces that allow rest, curiosity, and being met as a whole person.
✨ In this episode: • ADHD through a somatic, relational lens • Emotional regulation, shame, and ripple effects between families • Releasing the false split between mind and body • Permission, agency, and choice in a world built on conformity • How small embodied shifts can create meaningful change
This episode is an invitation to remember our innate wholeness—beyond diagnoses, roles, or expectations—and to imagine what might unfold if difference were met with curiosity, presence, and care.
