Episode 60 | Trauma & Transcendence Podcast In this week’s episode of Trauma & Transcendence, host Amanda M. Dodd sits down with Dale Turnbull, a Metaphors of Movement Coach and Trainer whose work bridges psychology, symbolism, and transformation. Dale’s unique approach reveals the hidden metaphors running our lives—and how, by exploring them consciously, we can find new movement, direction, and personal freedom. Dale brings over 12 years of experience in personal development, NLP, hypnosis, IEMT, and Provocative Change Works, blending practical insight with deep unconscious exploration. “For a long time,” Dale admits, “I struggled to look at myself honestly. It felt painful, so I avoided it. But when I found Metaphors of Movement, it gave me a way to explore my inner world safely and curiously.” Amanda and Dale dive into the fascinating world of metaphorical communication—how the language we use every day (“I feel stuck,” “I’m hitting a wall,” “I’m in a dark place”) is actually revealing unconscious maps of our experience.
