About - Dr. Julia Neumann

Julia Neumann empowers women to lead from their innate feminine wisdom. Her offers include Coaching and Group trainings. She also offers tools to inspire you and go through some of the topics in your own space and time with Radically Alive Women Edgecast and Her Conscious Anger Workbook for Women.

Adventure, growth, self discovery and new experience are at the core of Julia’s private and professional life. Neither of these are possible without courage.

Both in her professional and personal life, Julia has ventured into new territories and made courageous decisions, such as: Stepping out of her 6-figure-income Attorney job into a year of self discovery; stepping out of her corporate job with Germany’s major airline into living in New Zealand; stepping out of her New Zealand corporate job into opening a pottery business and delivering deeply transformational trainings in the context of Possibility Management for many years; founding a new body of work called Radically Alive Women; creating a Radically Alive Women Edgecast (a broadcast for Edgewalkers); crowdfunding and building a Creation and Recording studio (RAW Heart Quarters); stepping out of Possibility Management to focus on her own service in the world; living a nomadic life; living in radical honesty with other women; going through a 4-day Vision Quest in the Lakota tradition with no food or water sitting alone in the dark of a Sweatlodge, … and more.

Some of what Julia has learned through these experiences is:

Life is beautiful. There is immense Beauty in the world if we choose to see it.
Life is impermanent. Everything changes and we can co-create with this impermanence.
Life is now. This very moment is the moment to create from.
Our attention is priceless.
The voices in our heads are not real.
Life is worth living inside out.
It is useful to know that we don’t know, and move from there.
There’s a lot of light in the darkness.

Today, Julia shares her vast experience by holding space for individuals and groups, with a focus on empowering women to lead from their innate feminine wisdom.

Radically Alive Women

Conversations with courageous women that are taking a stand for radical aliveness. These women are leaders inside out.
We are broadcasting from and beyond the edge of patriarchy, mapping the way to a next culture of initiated adult Women and Men collaborating (Archiarchy, Wholearchy).
This Edgecast is brought to you by Julia Neumann, Annika Korsten and Hannah Abouzahrah, and is powered by Radically Alive Women, a context for empowering radical aliveness in women.
While men are not the focus of this Edgecast, we want the men to thrive, too. You will find some interviews with men also.

Bishop Reid is a somatic based business coach and trauma informed breathwork & mindfulness certified facilitator, working worldwide.

In this episode, she shares about reclaiming aliveness, transforming self-doubt, and redefining selfishness.

Bishop speaks of her personal journey with reclaiming her inner fire, constantly going to the edge with her online business, and navigating the cycles of self-doubt and confusion.

Bishop discusses the significance of somatic leadership, and the critical role of the nervous system and conscious fear in transforming self-doubt. She shares of her observation that self-doubt often transpires when we are coming to our own edge, the edge of our comfort zone.

“Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.”

Instead of freezing, over-analysing, overwhelm, or moving frantically, Bishop offers the possibility of slowing down while still moving. She emphasises the importance of presencing our bodies instead of going into “figuring it out”, which can happen with rage work, breathwork, somatic techniques, and also by circulating fear in the nervous system.

She explores the shadow side of women’s experiences, including societal expectations and the importance of a new definition of selfishness in cultivating personal and professional growth.

Bishop also generously offers a variety of practices, including possibilities for staying grounded, including rage work, breathwork, and the transformative power of creative mess-making. She advocates for collaboration and encourages women to support each other in their journeys of self-discovery and empowerment.
