    827: How to Design a Life Beyond Burnout with Life Coach Jelan Agnew
    2025/09/10
    In this powerful conversation, Life Coach Jelan Agnew, LCSW shares how ICU-level burnout during 2020 became her wake-up call to design life on purpose. She walks us through the mindset shifts that took her from overachievement and overload to presence, sobriety, and self-permission—ultimately moving to Mexico and reshaping her work from one-to-one therapy into coaching, workshops, and speaking. We unpack her "empty notebook" and baseline frameworks, why perfection is just avoidance in a cute outfit, and how focusing on feelings first (not the resume or the how) opens unexpected doors. What you’ll learn Baseline > Busyness: How to stop the thousand‑miles‑per‑hour train and rediscover what you actually like, need, and value now. Empty Notebook Method: Starting fresh—without old labels—to write the next chapter of your life. From Therapy to Coaching: Reframing impact: serving more people through workshops and speaking while protecting your well‑being. Feelings First: Why we chase titles/things for the feeling—and how to design from the feeling instead. Perfection = Avoidance: Giving yourself permission to be clumsy, new, and vulnerable. Sobriety & Mindfulness: Removing substances to find your emotional baseline and practicing presence to notice what truly fits. Permission Slips: The power of support (shoutout to therapy) and learning to give permission to yourself. Red‑Jeep Phenomenon: Put awareness on what you want and watch the signals appear. Conversation highlights (guide, no spoilers) Why both of us moved to Playa del Carmen—and how geography can catalyze growth Jelan’s ICU wake‑up call, burnout in 2020, and choosing a different way Baseline vs. busy: stopping the train and meeting yourself in the present The guilt of leaving a long career—and reframing impact Mindfulness, sobriety, and rebuilding identity Feeling over formulas: designing for joy, freedom, safety, and community Perfection as avoidance; being willing to be “clumsy on purpose” Self‑permission and the role of a great therapist in big moves Memorable quotes “I can help people, and it doesn’t have to be at the expense of myself.” — Jelan Agnew “Perfection is avoidance.” — Jelan Agnew “You have the option to make a choice before you get sat down.” — Jelan Agnew “Create the version of me that does that.” — Jelan Agnew “The how is none of your business.” — Jelan Agnew Try this: Listener challenge Grab an empty notebook (or open Notes) and complete these: I want to feel… (one sentence) Where do I already feel that today? (list 2–3 moments) What micro‑ritual amplifies it this week? (one action—breath, rest, or presence) Bonus: For the next 7 days, put your awareness on this desire (hello, red‑Jeep effect) and notice what people, ideas, or invitations show up.

  • 825: You Can’t Unknow the Truth — Preserving Black History with Historian JerriAnne Boggis

    825: You Can’t Unknow the Truth — Preserving Black History with Historian JerriAnne Boggis
    2025/06/16

    In this powerful and timely episode, I’m honored to connect with historian JerriAnne Boggis — Executive Director of the Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire — for a deeply resonant conversation about history, healing, and holding onto the truth.

    JerriAnne shares her personal journey from Jamaica to New Hampshire, the legacy of Black women trailblazers, and the 450-year untold story of Black lives in one of America’s whitest states. She reminds us that Black history isAmerican history — and once you know the truth, you can’t unknow it.

    Together, we talk about:

    • 🧭 The importance of preserving stories that are often erased

    • 📚 The groundbreaking legacy of Harriet Wilson, the first Black woman to publish a novel in English

    • 🧠 Why beliefs are harder to change than policies — and how deep-seated bias still shapes resistance to truth

    • 🧬 Her organization’s powerful Juneteenth program and how descendants of both enslaved people and presidents are reclaiming history together

    • 💃🏾 The role of joy, dancing, and family stories in our collective healing

    JerriAnne’s work is a powerful reminder that preserving and sharing our history isn’t just about the past — it’s how we shape our future.

    IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN:
    📍 Why Black history matters everywhere — even in places you wouldn’t expect
    📍 How one woman’s novel shifted a state’s sense of place and belonging
    📍 Why cultural erasure is intentional — and how we resist it
    📍 The healing power of community, movement, and remembering who we are
    📍 How the Black Heritage Trail is using tech, tours, and truth-telling to shift minds and hearts

    ✨ Listen in to be inspired, grounded, and reminded that we’ve survived worse. And they’re not going to take our joy.
