October 05Justice and Generosity: A Conversation with Hillar Moore (Ep 104)
Kelly reunites with Hillar Moore, East Baton Rouge Parish district attorney, by surprising him with the old Minolta camera Moore gave her at 19—an early doorway into the host’s decades-long creative career. Moore shares how cameras and crime-scene work as a young DA investigator helped shape his path from LSU missteps to criminal justice, law school, defense work, and eventually becoming DA. They discuss generosity, mentorship, and Moore’s philosophy of second chances—along with the high-stakes risk of deciding who gets one when guns and victims are involved. Moore explains patterns behind group violence, the pressures of an underfunded “hamburger-flipping” justice system, and why early childhood education and wraparound family support are key to changing outcomes. He also describes his massive “Justice Farms” garden, plant-centric journey, hot sauces, and giving produce back to the community.
From the Episode:
" And now in the position where I see a lot of kids that make some really bad mistakes, and then be able to give them a second chance..."
" ...how do you give a second chance to someone who's raped someone, someone who's shot, killed someone? I'm not saying that can't happen in some cases, but you always have to ask, what would the parents of the other person say? What does the other person say? What does the community say? What do they expect?"
" ...when you go to law school, they take your brain, and they screw it all up, and they turn it around, and they make you think of things that you would not normally think of, and take the other side, right?"
" So the plants don't talk back- ... and they don't kill each other, don't go to jail."
" ...also have moved on to hot peppers and make my own hot sauce...and my farm is called Justice Farms."
" You cannot ever give up on anybody. Someone has value. I don't care who they are. Someone has value, and your kids will shock you and surprise you."

September 28Excel Wellness: Functional Nutrition with Dr. Keta (Ep 103)
Kelly welcomes longtime wellness colleague Dr. Keta, founder of Excel Wellness in Baton Rouge, to discuss her evolution from chiropractic physician to functional nutritionist after supporting her mother and navigating her own thyroid decline, later confirmed Hashimoto’s, and perimenopause. Dr. Keta shares how self-experimentation led to a simple, sustainable, food-first approach supported by habits like stress management, movement, breathwork, and lifestyle tools, with flexibility for real life (an 80/20 mindset). They talk about why structure creates freedom, the importance of baselines and testing alongside honoring symptoms, and her root-cause analysis process using system-based symptom mapping and targeted labs. The conversation highlights mindset and identity shifts, accountability, and her 12-week coaching container with ongoing free access to group support. Dr. Keta directs listeners to follow her as Dr. Keta Nutritionist on Instagram and Facebook for education and guidance.

From the Episode:
" I got exposed to the world of functional medicine for the very first time, and I looked into it. I fell in love 'cause I could not believe there's so much you can help through just lifestyle and habits and nutrition."
" When you combine that with habits, simple, simple habits, sky's the limit. Your body is going to thank you and say, "Thank you for giving me everything I needed, so now I can help heal cellularly." And why wouldn't it function optimally at that point?"
" So that is the whole point of this, to transform your mindset on how you think about food. Food is fuel."
" I always tell them it's not that you can't. The dialogue should not be, "I can't have something." It should be more like, "I can have that, but I'm choosing not to have that." "
" So really, just jump. Take a chance. It's your life, it's your health, and if you don't do anything, then you are going to be stuck. So in order to be unstuck, you have to try something."
" And I took that answer and I cried about it saying, "This can't be life," until, you know, I just said, "Enough is enough. I'm not waiting. I'm going to find a way to make myself feel better." "

September 21The Heart of Hospice: A Conversation with Eddie Davis (Ep 102)
Kelly introduces Eddie Davis, volunteer coordinator for Gentiva Hospice, sharing how a chance conversation with a longtime hospice nurse and a library bulletin-board flyer led her to start volunteering. Eddie recounts his path from minister to hospice chaplain and now volunteer coordinator, explaining hospice as comfort care and symptom management delivered by an interdisciplinary team, including volunteers, for patients of all ages. They discuss why volunteers matter, the challenge of recruiting across a 50-mile radius, and the value of matching patients and volunteers by comfort and connection, not just age. Eddie and Kelly explore the emotional rewards and grief challenges of hospice work, healthy supports like faith, family, and team care, and the importance of respecting each patient’s spirituality. Eddie shares a powerful veteran send-off story and invites listeners nationwide to volunteer through Gentiva’s 36-state network.

From the Episode:
" So many people, when they hear the word hospice, they immediately think, "Oh my goodness, my life's over. I've got one foot in the grave and the other foot in eternity." "
" Your mind can kind of go to hospice being for elderly, and my first patient was even younger than me, right? And so, then it opened up this whole search for me of saying, "Oh my gosh, there's hospice for pediatrics." "
" But this is not just what I do, it's who I am."
" As far as being the most rewarding, to be able to put my head down on a pillow at the end of the day and know that I have been there to help somebody in one of the most difficult seasons in their life, that is the reward for me. "
" Well, there are lots of things different between us, but we can step over that and provide companionship and connection to somebody that needs a little bit of extra care, and that's really what hospice is all about."
" S o hospice doesn't just take care of the patient and their family during their illness and their death, but afterward as well."
" Yeah, I think that it's haunting to believe or to think that we could reach that point in our lives, in our journey where we're lying there on the bed thinking, 'I wished I had,' and then fill in the blank. I wished I'd said such and such to this person, and it's not too late. As long as you're breathing, it's not too late."

September 14Beyond Coaching with Katie Guillory: Redefining Limits and Pursuing Greatness (Ep 101)
Kelly interviews Katie Guillory, assistant strength and conditioning coach for LSU women’s gymnastics and beach volleyball, about her path from LSU softball to coaching, including stops at Traction, Liberty, and Illinois. Katie breaks down LSU gymnastics’ razor-thin national title loss (.04%) and the team’s “revenge tour” mindset, plus what she tracks in training—force plates, strength foundations, mobility, fatigue markers, and athlete management systems using technology and data dashboards. She shares practical advice for having difficult conversations, emphasizing trust, tone, body language, and when to pause and revisit. Katie also discusses overlapping gymnastics and beach volleyball seasons and starting mandatory training in mid-September. She opens up about losing the lower half of her left leg in an accident, adapting daily through disciplined routines, and training for Paralympic long jump with goals toward official marks, camps, and 2028 trials, while planning a website, T-shirts, and a book.

From the Episode:
" After that, I realized I was really interested in strength and conditioning more than physical therapy, just because I thought it was more on the proactive side of performance versus the reactive side."
" So it was really fun to watch that happen because when they pop off the plate and they just float in the air, you just know that their engine is running high right now, and you know they're gonna do some very cool gymnastics."
" So the short answer is strength will lay the foundation for every single bit of power."
" I owe it to them. I don't wanna waste their time collecting data just to do it. I want us to be able to make action-based decisions on what we see."
" Your egos go out the door and I love it. I love it. And sometimes there's like a little bit of animosity, and you can sense the tense in the room, but you understand it's for the greater good of the athletes and I don't mind that."
" And then recently, just over a year ago, I was in an accident and lost the lower half of my left leg. And my buddy who used to work with me at the University of Illinois just randomly called me up, and he was like, "Have you been poached by Paralympic teams yet?" "
" So the fastest thing that a human body can do is sprint. I'm teaching myself how to do that while left and right sides of my body move completely differently at the highest speed possible to be able to jump the farthest possible in a sport, you're right, that I have never done. That is the wildest thing to me, so why not chase it?"

September 08Episode 100... A Transformation Story for the Books (Ep 100)
In episode 100, Kelly reflects on finally launching her podcast on 11/11/24 after first announcing it in early 2020, celebrating 100 episodes built through 95 consecutive weeks of showing up, embracing “done over perfect,” and noting that listeners often browse the archive rather than listen sequentially. She shares her main reasons for podcasting—legacy for her daughters and a free platform to share tools and lived experience—and describes growing confidence behind the mic. She explains that the podcast Instagram remained small despite many tactics, prompting a pivot: starting Sept 7, 2026 (Labor Day), it becomes the documentary home for a public 100-day “Transformation Story” ending on her birthday. Marking nearly 10 years of daily yoga/meditation/breathwork that began after leaving a marriage and choosing celibacy, she frames the project as integrating her many “versions” into “full capacity,” using the scientific method with baselines (blood work, photos, aura photos) and measurable goals across health, body recomposition, skincare, finances, business systems, art releases, possible dating, and consistent follow-through, beginning in New Orleans after the New Orleans Yoga Festival.

August 31Mushroom Magic with Jordan Gros, Founder of Mycocentrics (Ep 99)
Host Kelly Jackson sits down with Jordan Gros, founder of Mycocentrics, to explore how mushrooms shaped Jordan’s life, health, and entrepreneurship. Jordan shares her path from biological engineering and early cordyceps cultivation to a serious Mount Shasta accident that led her back to Louisiana, where mushrooms became central to her healing and daily regimen. She explains what tinctures (liquid extracts) are, why she uses dual extraction for bioavailability, and why her foundational offerings—cordyceps, reishi, and lion’s mane—address common needs like energy, stress, sleep, focus, and gut health. The conversation covers adaptogens, why consistent use matters, why mushrooms are their own nutritional kingdom (including ergothioneine), cooking vs. raw, safe foraging guidance, education-focused walks and talks, psychedelic mushroom basics, and her growing work with gourmet mushrooms at Chris and Camille’s Family Farm, plus what’s next for Mycocentrics in 2027.

From the Episode:
" I just had to really dig deep as to what sparked even the slightest amount of joy within me, and I kept returning to mushrooms."
" It's very important for me as a human to develop something that people will genuinely benefit from."
" ...mushrooms do contain essential nutrients that you cannot reliably get from other sources. Ergothioneine is a big one—it's an antioxidant that exists in many mushrooms, like oyster mushrooms have a lot of it, and if you don't eat mushrooms, you're essentially not gonna get that antioxidant. That antioxidant has anti-aging effects, anti-inflammatory properties, and it can really help your overall health, and all you have to do is just eat more mushrooms."
"I wanna say that any mushroom is safe to touch. A lot of people think, 'I don't wanna touch it,' or whatever. It's totally safe to touch. It cannot be absorbed through your skin. Even deadly poisonous mushrooms, you can touch them."
" I think my role is genuinely just to get people together and get people hyped and get people feeling connected back to nature. And really, all I wanna do with this is to spark people's interest enough to go down their own rabbit holes. Mycology is such an interesting, new, exciting field. There's a ton of citizen scientists that are making new discoveries."
" Reishi's also gonna be like the most all-encompassing, so for those who are like, 'Whoa, this is overwhelming. I don't know where to start,' I always say reishi is the best place to start. They call it the umbrella mushroom. They also call it the mushroom of immortality."

August 24What If It Doesn't Work Out? (Ep 98)
Kelly Jackson explores the “hidden bargain” many people make with action—only doing the thing if the outcome is guaranteed—and why real life never offers that certainty. She shows how staying attached to potential can protect the ego, while execution trades fantasy for information, and explains the crucial distinction between “it didn’t work” and “I didn’t work.” Using examples like launches, events, relationships, and her own 10-day festival, Kelly reframes results by separating intended outcomes, actual outcomes, and unexpected consequences that can matter later. She also offers a more nuanced take on manifestation: desire gives direction, not control (“the vision is solid, the path is negotiable”), and emphasizes iteration, feedback, and discernment over toxic persistence.

From the Episode:
" And you can want something deeply and work toward it sincerely and believe in it completely and still not receive that particular outcome that you had imagined."
" Possibility is enormous before reality gets involved, and then you act, and reality answers."
" Actions have consequences far beyond their intended outcomes. So something can fail at its stated objective while producing consequences that later become enormously important."
" Manifestation doesn't mean domination of reality. It means participation with possibility. The same or better. Be open to it being even better than you imagined."

August 17The Space Between Knowing and Doing (Ep 97)
Host Kelly Jackson explores why unlimited information still doesn’t translate into follow-through, focusing on the intention–action gap studied in behavioral psychology. Using personal stories—choosing not to “procrastinate” with a perfectly healthy walk before studio time, and delaying an insurance claim after a car accident—she shows how resistance often comes from the costly threshold of starting (activation energy), not the task itself, and how “productive procrastination” like planning, researching, or organizing can disguise avoidance. Kelly explains why imagining feels good but execution requires decisions, uncertainty, competence, and the risk of judgment, and how action creates the information thinking can’t through an act–observe–adjust loop. She offers a practical key: you don’t need to finish, you need to enter, plus a preview of her Reset Room membership designed to keep intentions visible until behavior catches up.
From the Episode:
" We live in an age with almost unlimited access to information. Unlimited access to information. We know more than probably any generation before us about health and money, relationships, productivity, business, psychology, creativity, spirituality, habits. And still, knowing has never guaranteed doing. There is this entire space in between I know what I need to do, and I did it. "
" Some of the most effective avoidance behaviors are productive..."
" Stop making yourself carry the weight of an intention you're not willing to participate in."
" There is simply this little space between knowing and doing, and at some point, the only way to cross that space is an action."

August 10What Happens When Life Changes Frequency? (Ep 96)
Kelly Jackson reflects on what happens when the “frequency” of life shifts—when relationships, routines, roles, dreams, and responsibilities that once fit become incompatible without anyone being wrong. Using the story of Pongo, a foster dog who unexpectedly became part of her family for over three and a half years and left six months ago, she explores how repetition turns conscious choices into defaults and how endings reveal the “invisible architecture” built around what we maintain. She shares how life reorganized and expanded after releasing Pongo, challenges the idea that permanence equals value, and offers practical questions for listeners to assess what they’re maintaining, whether it still fits, and whether it needs to end or simply change form—without drama, guilt, or burning it all down.
From the Episode:
" One of the more difficult forms of self-awareness is noticing when we're maintaining something simply because it's familiar or expected or sentimental or historically meaningful... Not because it still belongs in its current form."
" And then one day it changes, and suddenly you become aware of how much invisible architecture had been built around that thing."
" And sometimes we don't even discover that something has been default until the default starts rubbing against who we've become. And when you feel that friction, that friction is information."
" The absence becomes part of the architecture too, and this is why sometimes we can't imagine life after something ends because we're trying to imagine our current life minus the thing. So of course, that looks like a hole. But that's not what it is. It's not current life minus the thing. Life restructures around the opening."
" If you are always available, somebody gets accustomed to your availability. If you always organize Christmas, everybody gets accustomed to you organizing Christmas. If you are the emotional processor, the organizer, fixer, initiator, updater, caretaker, vacation planner, keeper of a particular rhythm, everyone else learns the rhythm that you've helped establish."
" Guys, that's life. People arrive, animals arrive, ideas arrive, places arrive, responsibilities arrive, dreams arrive, and sometimes they leave, and they transform, and they move further away. Sometimes we move, and the whole goal is not to freeze everything we love so that nothing ever changes."

August 03Visions and Shadows: The Evolution of Mis Sombras from Sketch to Soul (Ep 95)
Kelly Jackson shares a behind-the-scenes mishap where an audio “clipping” error cut off half the original recording, prompting her to return and finish the episode later. She then spotlights a major milestone: on July 10, 2026, she unveiled Calma, the first guide of Mis Sombras’ second generation, at Tell a Vision—an exhibition of 21 artists transforming reclaimed TV frames—on view in downtown Baton Rouge through August 14 at the Arts Council’s Shell Gallery. Kelly explains the origins and ritual process behind Mis Sombras (“my shadows”), how guides emerge from sketches into reclaimed-material artworks with QR-code “portals,” and why Calma’s static-signal TV piece inspired a redesigned, more interactive guide bio experience. She previews the remaining 12 second-generation guides, possible new shows, and how her evolving sustainability choices will shape what comes next.
From the Episode:
"Mis Sombras means 'my shadows' in Spanish, and I love languages."
" But I loved it so much, and it was speaking to me so much that a whole world, a non-verbal world, a world without words, but a storytelling world, a world that was capable of translating a really serious or really heavy or really vulnerable or really specific or really transformational type of message without ever using a word."
" Sometimes you paint stuff and you don't even know why you painted it."
" Sometimes literally all that wants to come through at that time is just enough for you to recognize it when the time is right for it to be born into the world."
" So I'm excited about that because it is certainly a richer, more engaging, more interactive experience than the first go round because I've learned so much."
" I've shined the light of my consciousness on shadows, on some of these areas that I was unaware of, that I was unconscious of, are now right here out in the light for me to see and to say, "All right, so let's integrate."
