Your Body Knows
Your Body Knows is a podcast for women who are tired of surviving and ready to create lives that actually feel good to live.
Hosted by intuitive living coach, writer, and veteran publicist Shanetta McDonald, this podcast explores burnout, nervous system regulation, intuition, creativity, and the messy, beautiful work of coming home to yourself.
Through honest conversations, coaching insights, and personal reflections, you'll learn how to stop repeating old patterns, trust your inner wisdom, and build a life that feels more manageable, aligned, and true to who you are.
Whether you're navigating motherhood, a career transition, or simply asking, "Is this really the life I want?" you're in the right place.
Your body already knows the way. Let's listen.

Why December Is Your Most Exhausting Month (And What to Do About It)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you are tired of being told the holidays are supposed to be restful,or you're working harder than ever while everyone else seems to be winding down, or you're already exhausted and it's only December then this episode is for you.
In this episode, we're breaking down the myth of the holiday slowdown and why high-achieving women actually go into overdrive during this time of year. You'll learn what's really happening in your nervous system when you're stuck in "productivity override," why you can't just will yourself to relax, and the somatic signs that you're running on empty. Plus, I'm sharing a few practical tools you can use right now to actually downshift, even in the middle of the chaos.
