Today, we're joined by ultra insightful parenting coach Jenn Wert!

Jenn and I talk:

• Embracing emotions, cultivating acceptance, and fostering connection in your family

• Exploring mindfulness, the magic of humor, and practical strategies to be present

• Connecting with your intuition, instilling authentic dynamics, and encouraging self-discovery

Not a parent? Not a problem! The self-reflection, empathy, and compassion Jenn stresses as paramount for meaningful connection actually applies to all sorts of relationships. I am big on applying my learnings as a mom to all facets of my life and hope that my conversations serve both those who raise the smalls and those who don’t.

WTF is Human Design?!

It’s a holistic self-knowledge system that blends astrology, the I Ching, Kabbalah, and other philosophies and beliefs into a valuable tool to guide us in making aligned decisions for a fulfilling life.

Today, my dear friend Patt LeBlanc and I introduce this system that helps us navigate decisions, relationships, and life’s fluctuations, all with the aim of living authentically.

As you dive into the world of Human Design, you'll discover how to release conditioned patterns, tap into your superpowers, and nurture meaningful connections. We will touch on the history of Human Design, some ways in which to dive into the work, and how this powerful system can influence your work, relationships, self-perception, and so much more.

If you're seeking a transformative insight into yourself and how to navigate life's many changes, you're in the right place. Prepare to be empowered by the wisdom of Human Design.

I recently underwent a mastopexy with augmentation and abdominoplasty. I’m coming to the mic today having severely underestimated the impact this experience would on me beyond what I went into the OR to address. My experience turned out not to be just about getting snatched but about coming into my own Truth and the slap-upside-the-head reminder to go after what I want.

Going through with this surgery taught me the importance of:

• Making peace with and kindly setting asides external influences
• Listening to our intuition
• Going for what the f*ck we want in life

I also chat:

• How I weighed the pros and cons of this surgery
• How I prepared for my procedure for optimal recovery
• My results less than 2 weeks post-op

I share my thought process surrounding my decision to get plastic surgery after having my two kids. I touch on how I broach not only my upcoming surgery but also aesthetic topics more generally with my daughter.

I feel strongly about the need to encourage more open, less shame-based discourse about the female body. We start this by discussing and honoring our decisions and helping support earlier generations in embracing differences and loving themselves.

Specifically regarding my approach in managing these conversations with my daughter are the following three tenets:

• Leading my example (actions over words)

• Being mindful of shame-based talk

• Acknowledging and sometimes neutralizing our children’s commentary

Welcome to the Totally Fine podcast: where we discuss navigating life with love 🫶🏽

In my inaugural episode, I talk about the series of events that led to what I call my “unbecoming.” I share my most significant observations and learnings as I transitioned (what seemed like overnight) from a longtime corporate employee to a stay-at-home mom and why these learnings are relevant to so many of us.

It all comes down to one theme: Life may be a little better and gentler with us if we are gentler with ourselves.

I look forward to having you along for this ride!

Time to get personal! For this unsuspecting gal, the unique formation of my family unit is not something that ever entered my anticipated realm of possibility.

Leaving my engagement in the first trimester of my first pregnancy, experiencing immense fear, and going through in-depth personal work to find and stay in touch with my inner truth culminated in an outcome I never would have expected.

Key takeaways:

1. We must connect to the reality of who we are and what we are capable of doing
2. Letting go - REALLY LETTING GO - is how we make ourselves available for greatness
3. Trusting in the universe, the Bigger Plan, the process - whatever your Truth is, helps you take pressure off that pedal and let magic happen

The holidays can be wildly overwhelming!

In this episode, I break down how we may think about when to drag our butts to do something (because it will serve us in the end), and when we may be better off simply saying, “no, thank you.”

I talk about fitness in the winter, social obligations, and that ever-growing list of personal tasks and chores.

I also share about the sadly exciting time my husband and I tag-teamed cleaning our filthy couch by hand and how rewarding the experience was (the story is relevant; I promise).

My overarching thesis is that we are generally too hard on ourselves as it is, so in a season that generates so much incremental demand of our time and energy, thinking about your wellbeing is paramount!

💫

Sending all those affected by the terrors abroad so much love and light.

In this episode, I explain my use of the unofficial term “clouding agent,” which I use to describe any factor or influence in our lives that make it more difficult for us to tune into our true emotions and desires.

I break down clouding agents across three categories:

• Stuff we ingest

• Environmental / external influences

• Internal “default” programming or hardwiring
