About This Podcast
Welcome to the Free Spirit Academy Podcast. Free Spirit Academy is about the freedom to be fully who you are - beyond any cultural conditioning, trauma, or roles you were taught to play.
It’s about coming home to your body, and to yourself.
My name is Rande Moss. I’m a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and I’m so glad you’re here for these talks and conversations.
