Where has Jen been? A planned 8-week hiatus turned into a 6-month pause, by necessity...I have been processing a lot of personal stuff and the conversations are getting even more REAL. In this first episode back, I am unpacking one of the most difficult seasons of my life and getting more honest with myself and all of you. I invite dear friend and coach, Emily Nascimento, to join me in a discussion that hopefully encourages others who need permission, as I did, to:

a. take a break where necessary and get the care they need

b. normalize conversations about personal struggle and mental health

c. be true to themselves when making really difficult life decisions

Resources mentioned in this episode:

• Emily references use of an app called InsightTimer
• I reference a body of work and platform called  TBM in this episode - this resource has played a vital role in my personal healing journey; relieving a huge amount of mental load and unnecessary burdens.

Her vision for humanity is that we awaken to the magnificence of our cosmological story so that we can follow the evolutionary impulse to fully participate in the unfolding of creation before us.
