245: The Art of Unraveling with Erin McGuire-Henson

This week on The Found Podcast, Molly reconnects with returning guest Erin McGuire-Henson, a nervous system healer, coach for soul-aligned entrepreneurs, and newly published author of The Art of Unraveling.

In this deeply honest conversation, Erin shares the long and winding journey behind writing her book, a 15-year process shaped by personal healing, nervous system work, and the courage to finally be seen. Together, Molly and Erin explore how trauma responses like perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of visibility can quietly shape our lives and businesses.

Erin opens up about growing up in a volatile environment, navigating chronic illness and burnout, and discovering somatic healing practices that helped her reconnect with her true self. She also shares the emotional reality of launching creative work into the world, including the unexpected grief, vulnerability, and nervous system recalibration that can follow major milestones.

This episode is a powerful reminder that healing is rarely linear, and that unraveling who we've learned to be is often the first step toward becoming who we truly are.
