What if grief isn’t just about death, but an energy that can transform your life?

This week, Jenn Cassetta welcomes back intuitive medium, author, and consciousness coach Deborah Hanlon to discuss her book Reassembling Yourself: Turning Grief into Growth and expanding grief to include “micro griefs” like breakups, career changes, unmet dreams, and empty nesting. Deborah shares how Neale Donald Walsch unexpectedly wrote the book’s foreword after they connected through coaching, including a full-circle link to an event with Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. She explains how unprocessed grief is stored in the body and can become identity, introduces “inherited grief,” and outlines her non-linear stages—drop, daze, cocoon, goo phase, breakthrough, and echo—emphasizing presence over trying to “fix” grief. They close with rapid-fire questions, Deborah’s meditation routine, favorite books, and where to find her online.

Have you ever wondered, “Why am I so exhausted when I’m doing everything right?” What if burnout isn’t a personal failure, but a sign that something in your life or work is out of alignment?

Jenn Cassetta sits down with burnout expert, host of the Fried podcast, and author Cait Donovan (The Bouncebackability Factor and Mismatch: Why Good People Burn Out in Good Organizations) to unpack why good people burn out and what it really takes to recover.

Cait shares her own years-long journey through burnout, the symptoms she struggled to explain, and the support that finally helped her heal. Together, they explore the WHO’s definition of burnout, the hidden roots of chronic stress, and why boundaries and resilience aren't always the simple solutions they're made out to be.

From the impact of childhood experiences and constant digital overwhelm to the role of community, access to resources, and workplace culture, this conversation challenges everything you thought you knew about burnout.

Plus, discover how to recognize the mismatch between your values and your reality, identify what's draining your energy, and start creating the conditions you need to truly thrive.

When was the last time you felt triggered by the news, a text, or your own inner critic and wished you could stay calm instead of spiraling?

In this solo episode, host Jenn Cassetta shares why she’s been in creation mode for her new book, Secrets of the Sensei: Emotional Self-Defense to Protect Your Peace and Reclaim Your Power, and explains the goal: becoming the steady, discerning “sensei” of your life.

Drawing from martial arts, she offers three practical moves to protect your peace: build awareness by noticing body cues before a reaction takes over, regulate your nervous system with “stop, drop, and breathe” (three slow breaths), and choose your next right step by asking how your future self would respond. She also introduces a free Resilience Reservoir Assessment measuring physical, mental, emotional, and vision/flow reserves, with personalized prescriptions to refill them.
