Episode 77: Jenny Cheifetz is a breathwork coach


Listen Later

Meet Jenny Cheifetz, a life and breathwork coach at Jentle Coaching who went from running a food truck to finding herself in a dark mental space during the pandemic. Finding that with nothing to keep her as busy, she was forced to deal with her internal demons led to her being deeply unhappy. She found spiritual life coaching through Kismet and the positive impact on her inspired her to do the same thing. Not only did she become a certified life coach, but she also became certified in breathwork!

For Jenny, there have been many benefits in her life to breathwork. She found that she has experienced improved sleep, a calmer system, more clarity, creativity, and an easier time working. It has helped her in her relationship with her son (helps her respond to him better and more effectively calm down in times of stress) and with better mood shifting as a result of breathwork she has also found she has been better able to manifest good fortune in her life.

She also describes how her podcast Sideline Sisters went from sports to talking to real women about relatable topics, life lessons, and overcoming challenges.

Key takeaways:

  • Self-care is a priority, not a luxury, and is not something you buy on a shelf. Breathwork is a form of self-care and everyone can do it.

  • Her ideal client? The person she was at the beginning of the pandemic: someone who kept busy and went through the motions of life but was generally miserable overall. She had a problem admitting to herself, as many people do, that her life was not emotionally/spiritually fulfilling

  • She would tell herself “Shut up, Jenny, you don’t have anything to complain about”. Through getting coaching herself, and then getting certified in life coaching, she realized she was allowed to feel sadness and despair despite seemingly having everything. 

  • Breathwork involves purpose and a plan to bring something in your self, like peace, and breathing in a certain way for however long you can put aside for the moment. “You’ve given a gift to your body that you otherwise didn’t because you were operating in this stress response.”
