In this episode, we sit down with Jessy Pearson-Cheney, an Emotion Code Practitioner and author of The Regulation Remedy, to unpack what it looks like to be a “don'ter” and how to finally shift from looping patterns into clear action. Jessy shares her own turning points, from divorce and moving across the country to completing a painful breakup that instantly changed how her body felt day to day.
We get practical about nervous system regulation, somatic work, and why mindset tools can fail when the body is still running an old safety program. Jessy explains how trauma can disconnect you from sensation, why “I feel nothing” can be true, and how she helps clients find the original tripwire that keeps getting triggered in relationships, work, money, and self-worth. If you’ve tried therapy, planning, affirmations, and coaching yet still spiral at the exact same point, this conversation offers a different map.
You’ll also hear simple, low-risk ways to rebuild self-trust right now: make tiny decisions without outsourcing them, notice where a choice lives in your body, and even “talk” to a sensation to find what it needs. We also touch on mentorship, comparison in the online space, and how different decision styles can change what just do it really means.

One tiny decision can rewrite your whole life, and I’m living proof. I’m finally doing a formal introduction. Telling the real story behind how I got here: a two-time college dropout who vibed her way through school, moved across the country on a leap of faith, and kept choosing the next right risk even when the plan was blurry.

From credit union burnout to military moves, I share how I found my way back to myself through ballet, writing, and saying yes to the opportunities right in front of me. I dig into my writing and self-publishing journey and the turning point where I realize that helping women self-publish could be the business I was looking for. If you’ve ever felt behind, scattered, or unsure what you’re “supposed” to do, this one is for you.

In this episode we are joined by Drew McConnell. 

Drew is the founder of What The Hex Design Studio. She is a brand & web design strategist for minority entrepreneurs and underrepresented groups. She’s a wife, mother to a 2-year-old, & an artist specializing in photography & oil pastels.

Drew shares her first Do It or Don’t moment, at just 14 years old. And how that’s led to every other Do It or Don’t since then, starting a business, self-publishing her poetry book, and the moments she decided to wear the title of Artist. 

We discuss the different ways we’re able to trust our intuition, the logistics of taking chances, and how that changes as we get older.  We also work through, in real time, the beginning processes of hashing out a book idea, how writing and the creative process in itself is the healing.

In this episode, I'm sharing the moment that turned publishing my book from "something I'll do eventually" into something I knew I couldn't leave undone. We talk about the difference between urgency and rushing, why commitment doesn't always look like moving fast, and how we all have a "later" pile filled with the things that matter most.

Because sometimes the biggest decisions aren't made when we finally feel ready. They're made when we realize we don't want to spend the rest of our lives wondering what would've happened if we'd simply finished.

If you've been carrying something that's been waiting for "the right time," this conversation is for you.

We are joined by Jayme Rose Gray for our first official interview!

Jayme is a soul-purpose guide, the founder of Daydream Business School, a Soul-to-Strategy visionary for women, and a soon-to-be published author.

In this episode, Jessi and Jayme explore career pivots, entrepreneurship, podcasting, storytelling, and the belief that ideas seek out the people best equipped to bring them to life. They talk about recognizing the moments that will probably change everything, the ripple effects of following your purpose, why storytelling matters, and how one brave decision can impact more people than you'll ever know.

This is a conversation you don't want to miss.

Every meaningful change starts with a decision.

In the very first episode of Do It or Don't, I'm sharing why I started this podcast, the story behind my publishing company's "do it or don't" moment, and the concept that our ideas may not stay ours if we don't act on them.

What if ideas are invitations?

What if they're looking for someone willing to bring them to life?

And if we don't act on them... are we okay watching someone else do it instead?

If you've ever said, "One day I'll..." this episode is for you.
