Have you ever felt out of alignment, even when life looks fine on the outside?
Maybe you feel the nudge to change something, but your body tightens, your mind resists, and you fall back into old patterns.
In this episode of The Transformation Code, Sam Church sits down with Olivia Moon, a breathwork teacher and nervous system guide, to explore why so many of us feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from who we truly are.
Olivia opens up about her own journey from self sabotage and burnout to living with clarity, ease, and inner safety. She explains how childhood patterns shape our adult choices, why the body remembers everything, and how breathwork can create real freedom.
This episode will help you understand your patterns with more compassion. It will also teach you how to regulate your system so you can live with more awareness, alignment, and peace.
You will learn:
• Why breathwork can heal patterns you cannot think your way out of
• How early childhood shapes your nervous system
• Why the body holds beliefs you do not even know you have
• What alignment really feels like
• How to create change without overwhelming yourself
• The small daily tools that shift anxiety, confusion, and emotional heaviness
• Why self sabotage is not weakness but protection
• How to reconnect to your intuition and authentic self
