Episode 41 - The Courage to Surrender: Lessons in Letting Go and Finding Flow with Sepi Aeen
In this powerful episode, Host Unu Tran sits down with Dr. Sepi Aeen, a physical therapist with 36 years of experience, to explore the courage it takes to surrender, trust intuition, and follow the deeper calling that leads to true healing. Sepi shares her journey from starting as a PT aide at 17 to becoming a Doctor of Physical Therapy and eventually discovering the transformational work of John F. Barnes Myofascial Release—an experience that changed the trajectory of her life and practice. She opens up about the limitations she witnessed within the Western medical model, including insurance-driven care, productivity pressure, and burnout, and explains how these constraints pushed her to build a practice grounded in presence, connection, and authentic healing. Throughout the conversation, Sepi reveals how listening to intuition, detaching from outcomes, and surrendering to flow guided her toward her purpose. She discusses why true healing can’t be forced, the importance of creating safety for patients, and how Myofascial Release invites the body to express what words cannot. This episode is a deep, insightful look into reclaiming passion, aligning your work with your values, and allowing the body—and life—to unfold with more ease, trust, and authenticity. Whether you're a therapist, healer, student, or someone simply seeking clarity, this conversation will inspire you to let go of fear, reconnect with your inner knowing, and step into your calling with courage and flow.
