Body Language with Sofia Mella

About this podcast
Body Language with Sofia Mella is about bodies under pressure—our bodies, moving through culture. The show examines performance, the male gaze, Dark Hollywood stories, Los Angeles, and pop culture. It examines how power, ambition, and being watched shape the nervous system, and what it takes to step out of performance and back into the body.
