Chelsea Horton

What Chelsea talked about

Chelsea Horton discussed somatic therapy as an approach to working through emotions via bodily sensation rather than through purely intellectual processing. She described how past experiences become stored in the body, shaping how people react to present situations, and explained a feedback loop in which bodily sensations trigger thoughts that then intensify those sensations. Interrupting this loop, in her view, requires slowing down to notice what the body is doing.

She connected these ideas to entrepreneurship, discussing imposter syndrome and mindset as issues rooted in nervous system state rather than pure thought. She also framed intuition as a form of somatic intelligence, where the nervous system picks up on information before it can be consciously articulated, and touched on how this relates to trauma and manifestation.
