🎙 SHIT THAT KEEPS ME UP AT NIGHT

Join host, personal trainer, two-time published author, and Self Empowerment Studio founder Jessica Danford as she shoots the shit about the thoughts, struggles, and patterns that keep us up at night.

Blending real-life experience with professional expertise, Jessica brings honest conversations around mental health, self-doubt, addiction recovery, people-pleasing, trauma, and rebuilding confidence—without the performative wellness bullshit. Drawing from her background in fitness, martial arts, community development, and trauma-informed recovery, each episode invites you to look at what's really going on beneath the surface.

This podcast is for anyone who's tired of pretending they're fine, stuck in their head at 3 a.m., or ready to build strength—mentally, emotionally, and physically. Together, we unpack past experiences, explore coping tools, and challenge the stories that no longer serve you.

You'll leave each episode feeling grounded, empowered, and capable of taking real action toward the life you want—without the BS.
