Alanna La Cioppa - Grieving, Loss & Finding Purpose Again - EP21
Show notes
Somatic healing, grief, and learning to trust the wisdom of your body.
In Episode 21 of Into Deep, Geoff sits down with Alanna La Cioppa — somatic coach, yoga teacher, and psychotherapy & counselling student — for a deeply human conversation on loss, presence, and rebuilding purpose after grief.
Alanna shares her experience of growing up as a carer, losing both her sister and mother within 18 months, and the identity collapse that followed. Together, they explore how grief lives in the body, why we suppress instead of process, and how somatic work offers a grounded path back into alignment.
This episode dives into nervous system regulation, intuition vs fear, relationships as mirrors, projection, impermanence, and what it means to love fully when nothing is permanent.
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from your body, or stuck in your head — this conversation will meet you where you are.
