I whole heartedly recommend the Grounded Essence series for anyone interested in committing to a process of self exploration and healing. Jodi Walsh and Tracy Broyles are both incredibly skilled practitioners and together they created a workshop that is beautifully curated. I really appreciated the mix of embodiment exercises, teaching, creative practices, group exercises, and of course the individual process work. Each weekend felt like a mix of play and deep personal work. Meeting with and doing this work with the same group of individuals for 5 weekends over the course of a year is kinda a big deal. You get to go deeper, to get to know each other, to come back - and then again. For me, witnessing the process work of the others in the group is so so powerful and inspiring. Being vulnerable and being seen by others (and myself) is transformative. I am incredibly grateful to Jodi and Tracy and each of the other participants of the group for being a part of my journey as I continue to integrate what I've learned during the year. An opportunity to work with Jodi Walsh and Tracy Broyles, be it a special workshop such as Grounded Essence or individually would be a worthwhile investment in oneself. Highly recommend.
The Grounded Essence yearlong program was absolutely transformational in my life and relationships. Jodi Walsh and Tracy Broyles are gifted healers. Their offerings are extremely valuable.
Working with Jodi through Movement Works has been one of the most transformative experiences of my healing journey. Her approach is truly one-of-a-kind, gentle yet direct, intuitive yet grounded. Jodi has a unique ability to get right to the heart of the matter in a deeply compassionate and insightful way, making each session feel both safe and powerful. Over the years, she’s helped me navigate profound healing from trauma. Her work doesn’t just focus on symptoms, it invites you to reconnect with your Higher Self and shift energy in ways that foster lasting change. Through Movement Works, I’ve learned to develop self-love, take meaningful responsibility for my life, and lean into unity over separation. Jodi is not just a practitioner; she’s a gifted guide who meets you exactly where you are and helps you walk forward with strength and clarity. I’m endlessly grateful for her presence in my life.
