Do you ever feel like you’ve tried all the traditional ways to heal—talk therapy, self-help books, meditation apps—but something still feels off? Like you’re doing the work, but you’re stuck in the same cycles, disconnected from yourself, and craving something deeper?

Um me too.

This season of the How We Get Thru podcast, we’re pushing the boundaries of healing. This isn’t about surface-level self-care or just talking about growth. This podcast is for those who are ready to go beyond the expected—to step into something bigger, bolder, and more embodied.

We’re diving into what it really takes to feel alive—to break free from old narratives, to sit in the discomfort, to embrace every messy, beautiful, painful, powerful part of you. We’re talking about soul work that shakes you awake: shadow integration, somatic healing, astrology, energy work, past life wisdom—all the things that traditional therapy often doesn't touch.

Because healing isn’t just about getting through the hard stuff. It’s about feeling it all—fully, presently, unapologetically.

If you’re new here, I’m Jen—mom, therapist, and your guide inside the How We Get Thru community. Here, we don’t just ask the deep questions—we live them. We make space for the raw, the real, the things you’ve been afraid to say out loud.
