Welcome back to the “Hey, Wait” Podcast, hosted by embodiment coach, educator, and author Jay Moon Fields. Each episode we’ll be sharing stories, insights, interviews, and practical tools to help you shift how you show up in your relationships, and in your life.

In today’s episode, Jay Moon Fields is joined by Author, Social Worker, Professor, and Speaker, Melody Wilding. Melody’s “Hey, Wait” Moment was made possible through psychology– not only by making an effort to recognize and adjust her own headspace… but also by adapting to the psychology of the people who work as her superiors.

Jay and Melody have so much in common, and their similar approach to life is apparent right away. Throughout their discussion the two talk about “Managing Up”, a concept that allows you to gain more authority, freedom, and confidence at work. They provide fantastic strategies and scripts that are actionable that you can use to gain back a sense of your own reality in the workplace– one of our key missions here on the “Hey, Wait” Podcast.
