    2025/10/07

    🎙️ Episode 28 — There’s No Place Like Home

    Finding Freedom, Forgiveness, and Context in CalgaryWhen the Wicked Witch of the West heads east to Alberta, things get real. In this heartfelt homecoming episode, Jax unpacks what happens when distance delivers perspective, when context replaces conflict, and when forgiveness transforms family history into healing.

    Recorded from her youngest son’s apartment in Calgary, Jax explores what “being taken care of” truly means, finds new understanding with her mother, and discovers why empowerment holds more peace than blame. Through laughter, reflection, and a few unexpected tears, this episode redefines what it means to come home.

    • Freedom found in unexpected places (and better audio setups)

    • The Wicked Witch of the West gets real about family, fear, and flying free

    • Context as grace — and why it matters more than apology

    • A new lens on mother-daughter healing and generational cycles

    • How “being taken care of” shifts across borders and time

    • The chain-breaking courage of accountability

    • The realization that home can live inside you

    “I am tired of tearing people down because there’s more power in empowering.” — Jax

  • EP 27 From Puddles to Permission Subtitle: How solving a cat’s litter box problem revealed the power of clarity, standards, and self-worth

    Episode 27: From Puddles to Permission

    Subtitle: How solving a cat’s litter box problem revealed the power of clarity, standards, and self-worth

    Eight years of cat pee. Six litter boxes. Countless cleaners, litters, and even anxiety meds. And still, my house smelled like frustration. Then one night on TikTok, a pet psychic asked a single question: “Would you want to pee in the dark?”

    That moment flipped everything — for my cat, for my house, and for me.

    In this episode of the Just Jax Podcast, I share the wild ride from pet chaos to personal clarity:

    • 🐾 The unexpected fix that transformed years of litter box stress

    • 🐑 A sheep named Elliot who taught me early lessons about boundaries (and knocked out a tooth in the process)

    • 🐈‍⬛ The difference between fostering and ownership — and why settling for scraps never works in pets or life

    • 💡 How a light switch revealed the truth about my own patterns with love, standards, and self-worth

    • 🎶 Buu the yodeling cat as my energy barometer (yes, really)

    This episode goes beyond a litter box problem. It’s about what happens when we stop rushing for crumbs and finally claim a full serving at the table of our own lives.

    Jax quote: “I am worthy of sitting at the table of my life and having a full serving.”

    If you’ve ever felt stuck cleaning up the same mess — in your house, in your heart, or in your habits — this story is for you.

    • litter box solutions for cats

    • cat behavior problems

    • rescue cat struggles

    • pet psychic insight

    • self-worth and standards

    Superheroes Need Care Too

    Episode 26 celebrates six months of podcasting with birthday reflections, tarot guidance, family lessons, and proof that milestones come in all shapes and sizes.

    Six months. Twenty-six straight weeks. That’s half a year of me showing up in your earbuds every Tuesday, cape on or cape off. Episode 26 is a celebration, but it’s also a capsule of one very real week in my life—full of stories, side-quests, and lessons that remind me that milestones come in all shapes and sizes.

    This week, I share:

    • 🎂 Birthday reflections that pulled me into my “Just Because Year”—a season of claiming care, love, and joy without waiting for permission.

    • 🔮 Tarot guidance that arrived at the perfect moment and echoed into a conversation with my son.

    • 🥖 Family lessons baked into a banana bread FaceTime, where value, sacrifice, and self-worth all showed up on the table.

    • 🌊 Sea-glass hunting at dawn—a reminder that treasures show up when you time the tides and trust the process.

    • 🥑 An avocado breakfast drama that turned into a masterclass in choosing empowerment over spiraling.

    • ❤️ A health scare with my husband that cracked open the truth: even superheroes need care too.

    Through it all, I come back to identity: I’m the type of person who can show up for 26 weeks straight. That mantra matters, because it proves consistency, resilience, and the courage to keep going.

    So whether you’re listening for birthday sparks, tarot timing, family truths, or the reminder that you deserve care just because—this episode is your invitation to celebrate your own milestones, whatever shape they take.

  • EP 24 Lost Keys, Stolen Car & a Wonder Woman Badge — Proof That Everything Works Out
    2025/09/09

    🎙️ EP 24: Lost Keys, Stolen Car and a Wonder Woman Badge — Proof That Everything Works Out

    From runaway chaos to miracle returns, this episode shows how your brain’s Reticular Activating System collects proof, rewires beliefs, and turns everyday mayhem into wins.


    What do lost keys, a Wonder Woman badge, and a stolen Volkswagen have in common? A magic thread that proves one truth: I’m the type of person where everything works out for me.

    This episode pulls you straight into my world of wild proof — keys left on the seat and returned, doors opening because of a badge that should never have worked, and a rooftop carrier painted with sunflowers and a ladybug that turned chaos into a comeback. These stories are more than entertainment — they’re evidence that your brain is always training itself to notice what you believe.

    Inside this episode:

    • 🌻 The Wonder Woman badge that opened a locked door

    • 🔑 The keys on the seat that turned fear into protection

    • 🚗 The rooftop carrier too recognizable for the car to be stolen; yet it was

    • 🧠 Why the Reticular Activating System (RAS) is your filter for wins or losses

    • ✨ How proof-driven mantras flip chaos into momentum and show you what’s possible

    I’ll show you how to train your RAS — the bodyguard at the door of your conscious mind — to gather proof of success instead of stories of failure. Once you start feeding it mantras backed by real evidence, miracles stop feeling rare and start showing up everywhere.

    So if you’re ready to build a brain filter that roots for you, collects your wins, and delivers miracles right when you need them, this episode is your reset.

  • EP23 NOT HEARD: Say What You Mean, Receive What You Need Boundaries, listening, and the provide-and-protect lens for safer love and real connection
    2025/09/02

    EP23 NOT HEARD: Say What You Mean, Receive What You Need


    Boundaries, listening, and the provide-and-protect lens for safer love and real connection

    This week on the Just Jax Podcast, we close out the Adopt-a-Not series with the hardest one of all: Not Heard.

    For years, I believed the problem was men, my marriages, or the people around me. I carried a platinum card in the Man Haters Club, I knew how to cut men down, and I thought that made me powerful. What I refused to see was how much of my own voice I had buried.

    In this finale episode, I pull the curtain back on four marriages, six long-term relationships, and one life-changing workshop that forced me to face the truth: before I could demand to be heard, I had to listen to myself first.

    You will hear:

    • 💬 Why recognition of your own power changes how others respond to you

    • 🛡️ The two functions of masculine energy: provide and protect — and what happens when they protect themselves from you instead of for you

    • 🪞 The hard lesson that listening to yourself comes before anyone else can hear you

    • 🏥 The clinic showdown that proved how shifting energy can change the entire room without saying a word

    • 👑 Why female empowerment is about standing beside, free from shrinking or cutting down

    This episode is raw, uncomfortable, and honest. It is also liberating. The more I own my standards and my voice, the more space I create for men, my sons, and my relationships to rise into something stronger.

    Not Heard is the final cut of the Adopt-a-Nots series. If you have ever felt dismissed, silenced, or talked over, this conversation will give you the courage to speak clean, set standards, and finally hear yourself first.

    Episode 22:

    Not Chosen — Healing the Pain of Rejection and Choosing Yourself

    From family betrayal to faith loss, Episode 22 of the Just Jax Podcast dives into the wound of being left out—and the breakthrough that comes when you realize you were chosen all along.

    💬 Jax Quote: "The cure for the sting of being Not Chosen is to finally choose yourself."

    Welcome back, my darlings. Episode 22 of the Just Jax Podcast brings us to the sixth Adopt-a-Not: Not Chosen. This one runs deep.

    For years, I carried the ache of being passed over—by my mother, by the church, by relationships that broke me down. In this episode, I share the raw stories:

    • My mother’s choice of my father over me

    • The moment I repeated the same cycle with my kids

    • Family rejection that turned into a courtroom battle

    • The shock of being left out of my own family picture

    And then, the breakthrough. I discovered that I actually was chosen—protected in ways I never recognized. That realization flipped everything.

    Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

    • Why the “Not Chosen” wound can keep you chasing acceptance that never comes

    • How small daily choices prove you are chosen more often than you realize

    • The power of the mantra “I’m the type of person…” to rewire identity

    • Why choosing yourself is the ultimate healing

    This conversation is my love letter to anyone who has felt invisible, overlooked, or abandoned. You deserve to be your own chosen one.

  • EP21 NOT LOVED: Why love is greater than sacrifice Part 5 of the Adopt-a-Nots series dives into love languages, boundaries, and a 14-year-old truth bomb that changed everything.
    2025/08/19

    Episode 21: Not Loved — Why Love is Greater Than Sacrifice

    Part five of the Adopt-a-Nots series dives into love languages, boundaries, and a 14-year-old truth bomb that changed everything.

    Love. It can be stained-glass beauty that lights up your soul… or it can feel like you’re handing out juice boxes nobody asked for. In this fifth episode of the Adopt-a-Nots series,


    Jax goes full throttle into Not Loved—the wound that cuts the deepest and lingers the longest.

    This episode brings humor, sass, and a few too-honest family stories to show what love actually looks like when boundaries, communication, and respect are missing.


    Jax strips away the sugar coating and dives into the messy truth: love loses its name when it comes at the cost of your own value.


    Inside this episode, you’ll get:

    • A real-world breakdown of Gary Chapman’s Five Love Languages—why they help, why they trip us up, and how they can flip into weapons when mismatched.

    • The infamous orange juice vs. grape juice story—a family lesson in what happens when you keep pouring out what’s easy for you instead of what the other person actually craves. The glass may be full, but the need still goes dry.

    • A 14-year-old’s jaw-dropping truth bomb that reminded Jax that “saying no” is allowed—and it is powerful.

    • A blunt reflection on why love is greater than sacrifice, and how choosing yourself first changes the entire playing field.

    • Practical mantra work: “I’m the type of person who says no when it counts.” Use it. Repeat it. Prove it in real time.

    This is love without the Hallmark filter. It’s messy, it’s personal, and it asks you to get honest about how you give and receive.

    💡 “You’ll only attract the love that matches the love you give yourself.”
