Episode 24 – Somatics, Love & Leadership with Nathan Blair
We speak with Nathan Blair again, founder of the Somatic School, where we explore how somatics, love, and leadership intersect. He shares how leaders can act as co-regulators, using grounding, breathwork, and presence to create safety and connection. Nathan frames love as an active practice that shapes our bodies, rewires our brains, and transforms organizational culture through empathy, attunement, and trust.
Join us for what is another inspiring, powerful conversation tapping into the grounded science of love in leadership.
Episode 24 - Somatics, Love & Leadership with Nathan Blair
After leaving the corporate world to coach full-time, Nathan immersed himself in somatic practice. Over the years he learnt from founding thinkers and practitioners in Somatic Psychology, Interpersonal Neurobiology and Body Psychotherapy. The Somatic School was born out of the desire to create the coach training he himself had longed for.
Nathan describes himself as a Taoist Nondual Jew for Jesus with an appreciation for Quaker practice and a penchant for Sufi poetry! He sees Somatics as the meeting point of science and spirituality—a grounded, embodied path to leadership that also listens for the timeless wisdom echoed across the world’s great mystical traditions.
