53: Unleashing your soul through movement with Tara Romano

Shifting energy and emotional healing through movement

This week’s guest is someone special—she helps people release emotion, express themselves and their energy through movement, and she truly radiates life and soul. Tara Romano is a self-proclaimed girl next door with a whole lot of heart who shows up in the world through movement, always wanting to learn, be authentic, and growing through network marketing and personal development.

Listen to this episode to hear how movement can create emotional healing, how Tara helps people connect through energy and alter ego, and how you can learn to show up for yourself in the same way.

Finding her call to action

Tara starts off describing her work mentality, how she worked fulltime through college teaching Zumba classes and bartending, and how her sister introduced her to a program that changed her body, mind, and soul. She describes the resistance she initially had to the program, and how it took a couple of years before she was finally ready to pursue something she was passionate it.

Tara describes her journey documenting her workout classes through YouTube, working relentlessly, and the backlash she received from friends when she began to transform. She describes how she first discovered network marketing, personal development, and how an audition for a new gym evolved into her company and workout class, Tone & Tease.

Permission to show up as you

Tara describes how she uses her classes to break down barriers and walls, to share her story and give permission to others to show up for themselves through movement and expression. We talk about how your body is a compass, and when you tune in and pay attention, it tells you exactly what kind of healing you need.
