Embodied with Kathy Covington
Where science meets soul — and strength finds meaning.
An invitation to slow down, tune in, and move with intention.
Embodied is a weekly podcast exploring the intersection of physiology, psychology, and soulful practice — because true transformation goes far beyond the workout.
Each week, Kathy brings you honest, unfiltered conversations with experts in wellness, neuroscience, spirituality, and leadership — as well as real women whose lives have been changed from the inside out.
Together you'll uncover what it means to embody strength, cultivate presence, and build a life rich in meaning.
Whether you're a Pilates professional, a fitness entrepreneur, or simply a woman who wants to live and lead with more intention — this is your space to reconnect with what truly moves you.
Every episode is an invitation to go deeper
Mind-Body Science
The latest insights from physiology, neuroscience, and the psychology of movement — made accessible, practical, and deeply relevant to how you live and lead every day.
Soulful Conversations
Honest, unfiltered conversations with experts, practitioners, and real women navigating transformation from the inside out. The kind that make you pull over to take notes.
Embodied Wisdom
What does it actually mean to live in your body with intention? Each week, Kathy explores the practice of presence — in movement, in business, in relationships, and in life.
Leadership & Entrepreneurship
For the studio owners, movement professionals, and women building something of their own — real talk on the mindset, identity shifts, and inner work that make outward growth possible.
The strategy and the soul — held in the same conversation.
Meet Kathy.
Kathy Covington is the founder of Mantra Pilates — a multi-location Pilates brand built from a single studio in Sarasota, Florida in 2012. She holds an MBA in Finance & Entrepreneurship and has spent fourteen years building a business while doing the deeper personal work that makes it all sustainable.
Embodied is the show she wished existed when she was starting out — the one that honored both the strategy and the soul, that understood the woman building the business and the woman doing the inner work are the same person.
Now she hosts it herself, every single week.
