Manifestation Beyond Mindset, Somatics & the Nervous System with Brian Trzaskos

Manifestation has become one of the most talked-about concepts in personal growth—but what if we've been missing one of the biggest pieces? In this episode of The Energy Fix, Tansy sits down with Brian Trzaskos, physical therapist, somatic educator, and trauma-informed practitioner, to explore the powerful connection between manifestation, the nervous system, and the body. Together, they unpack why mindset work alone often falls short, how subconscious patterns become stored in our physiology, and why true transformation happens when we begin listening to what our bodies have been communicating all along. Brian explains concepts like interoceptive literacy, the window of tolerance, and cheerful indifference, while offering a refreshing perspective on confidence, self-sabotage, limiting beliefs, and authentic manifestation. If you've ever felt like you're doing "all the right things" but still can't seem to move forward, this conversation offers a compassionate explanation and a completely different path.
