LIVE WITH Joseph Cyr and Kelly Kessler

June 9th at 7pm ET

For women who've done the inner work and still feel it in their bodies.

Join this 75 minute LIVE Workshop with

Joseph Cyr and Kelly Kessler

Why this. Why now.

Most stress-management advice targets your behavior or your mindset. Set better boundaries. Think differently. Do less.

But if you've tried that and your body still feels like it's bracing for impact, this workshop is for you.

Held in the Body is a free 75-minute live session for women who have the awareness, have done the work, and are ready to understand why the tension hasn't left and actually feel it shift.

Kelly and Joseph bring together the psychology of self-abandonment and the intelligence of the body to give you something most personal development spaces never offer: not just insight, but relief.

This is for you if you know what you need to do, but don't actually live it...

  • You've done the therapy, read the books, built the practice and you still feel it in your body.

  • You can set the boundary and still spend three days replaying it in your head.

  • You're the one everyone leans on, and you've gotten so good at holding it together that even you forget you're tired.

  • Rest doesn't feel like rest. Stillness feels harder than staying busy.

  • You know what's happening. You just haven't found a way to make your body believe it's safe to stop bracing

Meet Your Hosts

Joseph Cyr

Neck and Shoulder Relief Coach

Joseph Cyr is a transformational coach and licensed massage therapist who helps high-achieving women understand why stress settles in their neck and shoulders. His work blends body awareness, nervous system support, and simple practices for relief that lasts.

Kelly Kessler

Self-Abandonment and Nervous System Coach

Dr. Kelly Kessler is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, and mentor who helps high-achieving women heal patterns of self-abandonment and reconnect with self-trust, authentic boundaries, and self-loyalty. Through nervous system and somatic healing work, she guides women back to themselves so they can create lives that feel aligned from the inside out.

The women who need this most are usually the ones who look like they need it least.

Here's what changes:

  • A clear understanding of why your body still holds the load even when your mind has moved on

  • Why boundaries have felt harder to hold than they should and what's actually been missing

  • What safety has to do with it, and why without it, even the best boundaries won't stick

  • A simple release practice you can use the same day, not just understand, but actually feel

  • A way to identify exactly where you're still over-functioning even when you think you've let go

One hour. One real shift. No more carrying what was never yours to hold.

See you there!
