What I’m All About

I gain so much joy from fostering relationships with my clients and teaching them how to re-connect with their bodies through movement. I am a business owner, a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), and a personal trainer. In addition to training I also co-host the podcast: Gal Pals, as well as hosting the Liveng Proof Podcast for 4+ years.

My Training Philosophy

I work with clients to help them gain acceptance of their body, and provide tools to connect and move their body in a sustainable and joy-filled way. You can read more about my training philosophy here.

A little bit more about me:

I graduated from the University of New Hampshire, which is where I earned my B.S. in Biology.  I became an NASM certified personal trainer in 2013, which is when I also started my own business Liveng Proof, LLC. I’ve worked as a trainer ever since. I am now a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). 

I have worked with many clients over the years who have a history of an eating disorder, exercise addiction, or just a rocky relationship with exercise/ their bodies. I love working with clients and watching them deepen their relationship to their body and restore their relationship with movement.

Non-Diet Trainer Consulting:

There’s a lot of pressure on personal trainers to deliver a service to clients that want to lose weight or change their bodies. As I began my own path to recovery from diet culture, I struggled to offer my services in good conscience to my personal training clients. What the industry seemed to want, went against my inner values of trying to promote and educate clients on the practice of intuitive movement, intuitive eating, and body respect. 

As I made this transition, one thing became clear: I wanted my clients to feel empowered. I wanted them to walk away with tools they could access to feel more connected to their body. 

My training approach began to shift away from weight loss and an appearance-based focus, towards educating my clients on things like their anatomy, biomechanics, and respiration. My goal was to increase things like their proprioceptive awareness and decrease things like self-demonizing their body’s appearance. My training began to center more on optimizing their movement & increasing their overall sense of well being. I no longer wanted to support any practices that reinforced weight loss, diets, or appearances.

Perhaps you’re like me, and you’re a trainer with a history of an eating disorder and exercise addiction. You want to promote wellness without obsession to your clients. You want to coach in a way that honors your values. And you feel overwhelmed by the industry’s deeply rooted diet-culture values, which heavily promote things like weight loss and body transformations. 

Am I the right fit for this?

My consultations are for anyone who wants to become a personal trainer without contributing to diet culture. It’s also for pre-existing trainers that want to learn how to work with clients in a way that aligns with intuitive eating based principles & a wellness without obsession approach. If you’re done with supporting diet culture messages of weight loss, dieting, and body shame, to yourself and your clients, this offer is for you.

I’d love to work with you to help you train in a way that speaks to your inner values and serves your clients beyond the standards of diet culture. These days personal training is so bogged down with weight loss, body transformations, and drastic before and afters. If these ideals don’t resonate with you it can be challenging to “make it” in the industry. 

This program is for anyone who wants to be a trainer that honors intuitive eating based principles, body respect, and wants to help reinvent the personal training narrative.

It’s always my hope that even if you have a different story that you can hear parts of yourself in the conversations had here, and that you can walk away with tools on how to navigate the not-often-spoken about topics that may be holding you back from living in the present. My mission is to offer you tools, insights and stories to help you on your journey. 

But one of those journey’s I have neglected to address – which now seems glaringly obvious – is that of racism.

I overlooked this experience most likely because of my privilege as a white person. I am waking up to my role as the “good white liberal”. No one wants to be thought of as racist, but by not speaking up about this topic – is in fact condoning it. So by not speaking about systemic racism I was playing a role in contributing to it. 

Here are some resources you may want to look into:

Madison Morrigan is a 4x international award winning life coach, speaker, and creator of Awaken Her Soul, a 14 week mentorship program designed to help womxn embody their worth, power and fullness. Centered on self-responsibility and full expression, Madison coaches ambitious and creative womxn to shed layers of old programming keeping them small and finally come home to their true selves. Madison has her degree in interpersonal communication with an emphasis in psychology from Missouri State University, has a certificate in conflict resolution and legal mediation, and is proudly Certified BYCA Coach. This conversation started rolling from the moment I hit record. I decided to just roll with a less “official” starting point and I kind of like the comfortability of it. 

SUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON

IN THIS CONVERSATION WE DISCUSS:

How she chose her name (Morrigan is the celtic goddess of war, death, and rebirth)

Divorcing her husband & recent coming out experience as queer

The resistance that she feels when she feels oblisgated to inform people of her sexualtiy 

Wrestingling with not wanting exploiting herself for other people’s understanding, but also share authentically

Social media can make us feel like “we” are the product, it can hinder us to really see one another as people

“When we treat ourselves like a product, people stop seeing us as a person”

How do you know what is sacred (aka not to be shared publicly)?

Is social media, trauma bonding?

She shares about her childhood, growing up with an alcoholic parent who she was enmeshed with

Her experience with spirituality & religion

Her coping mechanism of overidentification with high performance /work addiction

Understanding our coping mechanisms/ trauma responses served us at one point but may no longer (once we feel ready to heal)

Healing her relationship with high performance & owning her voice

Upleveling ourselves into things that scare us

Getting comfortable experiencing life as a participant/student/peer, accepting instead of being the leader and space holder

The vulnerability of being seen in my power around other women, in person

Realizing the self work, only works when we’re showing up eventually in relationship

There’s information in our patterns (Am I usually the leader? Am I usually the space holder? Do I do things to avoid being the object of attention?)

We are not our pain and/or trauma. We are not our coping mechanisms. We are not our beliefs or our stories.

Target analogy: Outside ring: our person, our personality, the stories we tell ourselves (the self we become to accommodate the world). Middle ring: True Essence (who you’re actually here to be, outside of what culture/ or your trauma tells you to me). Inner ring: True Divine self  (we are all connected and made of the same thing)

Why authenticity is not simply disclosure

Processing forgiveness: I don’t have to be punish, resent, withhold, or be angry with someone to feel justified in my feelings

Coming to terms with that you “I will never get what I needed” and learning to protect and honor your inner child

Learning to honor & feel our anger and grief

Unlearning self-abandonment

Embracing forgiveness and allowing (allowing yourself to feel your feelings)

Forgiveness in the ability to soften around something

She speaks to the idea of both/and

Pendulate the ability to fluctuate between two places in your body

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

Her natural curiosity & desire to learn as a child

Our humanness is the doorway to the spiritual.

What’s come up for her during this global uncertainty

Informed consent in how we heal

The western approach of the medical model. What this model excludes. 

She offers an alternative inclusive approach to the medical model – for those who have not found resolution with the medical model – one that offers the patient agency and sovereignty in their healing journey.

How seductive it can feel to use ways to escape reality 

The non-linear journey of healing 

She shares about her own struggle with an eating disorder from ages 10-19

Having gratitude for our coping mechanisms

Learning to sit with our own pain rather than obsessing about the symptom. 

Learning how the symptom (obsessive thoughts about food + body, or depression, anxiety, etc.) is an indicator of something that needs our attention.

Working with diagnoses in mental health: when are they helpful? When are they harmful? Who do they serve? Who do they disempower?

How a mental health diagnosis can feel like a trap to some and empowering to others. 

Everyone is the master and expert of their own experience 

The power differential that can occur between a therapist and client (therapeutic aggression). 

How we can lean more towards a client centered approach where co-creation is the foundation of the relationship.

The anti-psychiatry movement

The history of diagnoses in mental health

Psychiatry is a modern day witch hunt

The history of the DSM

How have mental health diagnoses created a broader cultural implication of pathologizing the human experience? 

Archetypes: pathologizing the neurotic expression vs. the wisdom expression

What are the causes of mental illness? 

Are there some causes that don’t get validated as much as others? 

At the end of the day- what matters most is how each individual/client works with diagnoses and if they experience it as helpful or harmful.

Bri (she/her) is a mental health and lgbtq+ advocate who goes by Little Wandering Soul online. She is originally from NJ, but has called Boston, MA her home for the past 8 years. Bri started Little Wandering Soul on Instagram in January 2019 when she was going through a hard time. Her relationship was deteriorating and she was just back to work after being on a leave of absence for her mental health struggles. As she struggled to find passion in her work, love life and within myself she took to Instagram as a way to express herself.

She started to write transparently and authentically about what was going on in her life. About her struggles with depression, anxiety, coming out and her life-long journey of learning to love herself.

As time went on and she wrote more about my experiences, people began reaching out and sharing their stories. Bri began feeling like she wasn’t alone anymore – she felt encouraged, valued and like she had purpose.

It’s been less than a year and she is so grateful for this platform that has given her opportunity, connection, confidence and most importantly, a way to give back to her community. 

She makes sure to leave everyone with this message as they find her page: While every story is different, know you are never alone in your struggle.
