Hello, my name is Stephanie. It's an honor to be here with you today. Thank you for listening. I would like to share a bit about why I'm here and what it is that I'm doing. I'm originally from Nebraska, but I grew up in New York City and I moved to France when I was 17 years old.

And after that, I've been traveling around. I moved back to New York City, and now I live where I am now in Ibiza, where I've lived the past four years. I'm trying to begin when my journey began, where I first remember my, I would say, the most defining moment of me coming onto this path.

And I remember a time when I had an accident and I thought I was going to die. I was probably nine years old. I fell off the back of a boat, of our boat, and cut my leg on the motor, on the propeller. And I remember being carried in the arms of my father and

Embracing the Journey: A Path to Healing and Embodied Presence

Welcome to 'Path to Presence Embodied', a podcast by Stephanie Canavesio

Welcome to the first episode of my podcast, "Path to Presence Embodied." I'm Stephanie Canavesio, and in this episode, I invite you on a deeply personal journey into the realm of self-awareness and healing.

My story begins with a significant childhood accident that ignited my spiritual curiosity. Growing up, I faced numerous challenges, including struggles with bulimia and substance abuse, while living in New York and Paris. These experiences left me feeling disconnected and in search of my true self.

A transformative moment in my life was encountering Amma, the Hugging Saint, and exploring psychedelics like ayahuasca. These experiences were pivotal, leading to profound realizations about my fears, patterns, and the urgency for personal change.

I delved deep into yoga, meditation, and the teachings of Gabor Maté, focusing on trauma, addiction, and spiritual bypassing. These practices helped me understand and embody my experiences, fostering a deeper connection with my inner self and the divine.

The core theme of my podcast is embodied presence. My studies in contemplative psychotherapy and my work with various spiritual and therapeutic practices have profoundly influenced my understanding and approach to healing.

In this episode, I reflect on the importance of embracing and honoring our struggles and conflicts. Acceptance, I believe, is the gateway to deeper wisdom and awareness. My passion lies in sharing my learnings and experiences with you, to assist on your own path to self-discovery and healing.

Join me on this journey as I share a blend of personal anecdotes, spiritual insights, and therapeutic wisdom. My story is a testament to the transformative power of self-awareness and the continuous journey towards presence and embodiment.

Thank you for being here, and I'm excited to explore this path together.
