I Got it Girl Podcast

Coach Jackie welcomes guest Eileen McDonald, who helps women reconnect with their internal wisdom and “dance with the mess of the stress” so it doesn’t derail their health or performance. They discuss how “I got it” control patterns can develop, by sharing Jackie’s childhood experience of becoming fiercely independent, and Eileen’s story of pushing through motherhood and work until her body shut down, leading to an autoimmune disease and the difficult practice of asking for and receiving help. Eileen shares how her healing journey led her to explore how emotions affect physiology, stress and the nervous system, and tools like biofeedback to make the invisible visible. They offer practical micro-practices to release tension (shoulder rolls, progressive muscle squeeze-and-release, breathing, sighing, rubbing around the ears, humming) and emphasize pausing to create space between events and reactions, bringing more ease at home and in life.

Coach Jackie welcomes Nancy, a former lawyer turned therapist and now coach, to discuss how women business owners can clear subconscious “rules” that drive overworking, burnout, visibility fears, and money blocks. Nancy shares her path from Harvard Law School and nine years of practicing law to 17+ years as a therapist, then building a coaching business by releasing hidden beliefs like needing to work hard to be valuable or loyal. They explore the “I Got It Girl” pattern of control and survival, how burnout can repeat in sneaky ways, and why rest and “being” must come before doing and having. Nancy explains EFT tapping, how she identifies underlying rules by rating their emotional charge, and how tapping helps break fear-based subconscious connections. She highlights her podcast featuring live tapping sessions and resources for overcoming procrastination.

Coach Jackie welcomes her friend Victoria, host of the “My Villain Era” podcast, to talk about leaving people-pleasing behind and putting yourself first. Victoria shares how a breaking point tied to family conflict and enforcing boundaries led her to release relationships that weren’t aligned and step into a more authentic life. Together they discuss how growth can shift your “vibration,” why friendships change over time, and how grief can include mourning what you hoped relationships or careers would become. Victoria describes finding greater peace, reduced mental chatter, and manifesting as she practices letting go. She highlights tools and influences like Joe Dispenza and Neville Goddard, and emphasizes the importance of a supportive “girl gang.” Victoria also previews her upcoming Main Character Collective community.

Coach Jackie welcomes executive coach and international speaker Lisa Condon to discuss the “I got it girl” experience of appearing to have it all together while living from survival, control, and fear. Lisa shares growing up in Lancaster, Pennsylvania with a “don’t talk about feelings” culture, experiencing childhood sexual trauma, and losing her voice in a male-dominated corporate newspaper career despite conventional success. A pivotal moment came when a publisher tried to withhold earned commissions from Lisa’s team, prompting her to speak up from an integrity-based place and catalyzing her shift toward consulting and building community impact work, including creating “Nonprofit Palooza” at a Vermont music festival. They explore recognizing resistance, head vs. heart alignment, identifying core values, the importance of having coaches, and Lisa’s key lesson: you don’t always value your priorities, but you can always prioritize your values.

From “I Got It” to Letting Go: Julie Marty Pearson on Podcasting, Purpose & Owning Your Voice

In this episode I get to welcome Julie Marty Pearson, the podcast mentor who helped me launch the I Got it Girl podcast, to discuss how podcasting creates an equal playing field and why more women’s voices are needed in the space. Julie shares her journey from being the “good girl” who stuffed emotions—experiencing early health issues, later kidney disease, her father’s death, and a hysterectomy—into a breaking point during COVID when life slowed down and she could no longer distract herself with achievement. She explains how trying career coaching and a career podcast didn’t work and then starting a pet podcast helped her find her passion for interviewing and connection, leading to a coaching business helping others launch and grow shows. They explore releasing “shoulds,” integrating personal and professional selves, and embracing creativity, fun, and experimentation without fear of failure.

From Caregiver Burnout to Healing: Kat Mitchell on Reiki, Hypnotherapy, NLP & putting yourself first

I got the honor to welcome Kat Mitchell to the I Got It Girl podcast to discuss how the “I got it” mindset can lead to overwhelm, anxiety, and burnout, and how surrender, support, and healing tools can help. Kat shares her caregiving journey from 2015–2024, including caring for a cousin with end-stage liver disease, making end-of-life decisions, later supporting her dad, then navigating her mom’s Alzheimer’s/dementia and her brother’s multiple strokes while rebuilding neural pathways and learning to meet people where they are. She also describes losing her partner in 2021, moving without income, breaking her right arm, and adapting day-by-day with prayer and new systems. Kat explains how these experiences led her to meditation, Reiki, hypnotherapy, and NLP, and how she now helps women learn to put themselves first and redefine identity after caretaking.

From Corporate to Unemployable: Owning Your Power with Jenelle (Jen) Ingram

Coach Jackie welcomes longtime friend and fellow podcaster Jenelle (Jen) Ingram, a business identity coach who helps women leave their “corporate girl era” and turn side hustles into full-time businesses. They discuss the push-pull between safety and risk, how women are taught to soften or hide directness, and the difference between empathy and self-abandonment. Jenelle shares insights from a friendship breakup, the importance of radical responsibility, and how corporate environments can train women to filter themselves. They explore control, trust, and the need for a catalyst—often anger or dissatisfaction—to create change, including Jenelle’s realization that taking back control required transforming her health and self-trust. Jenelle describes her current transition into consulting work while building her coaching impact, and shares Her Seat Collective events and retreats.

From “I Got It” to Letting Go: Over-Functioning, Feeling Invisible & Being Brave with Karen Rae

In this episode I have the honor of interviewing my dear friend and peer, Karen Rae, the owner of FAVE and the Being Brave tour. We explore how “I got it” can show up as control, over-functioning, and taking on others’ feelings, and how surrender, trust, and receiving can create deeper connections. Karen shares that during her divorce she realized she felt “invisible” in her own life, prompting tears, self-reflection, and a long, layered process of awareness, and taking responsibility for herself rather than carrying everyone else. They discuss letting people make their own choices, the exhaustion of doing it all alone, and rediscovering the vibrant, fearless self that can get buried. Karen shares a free downloadable Being Brave Tour magazine and supporting podcast that both offer short reflections, prompts, exercises, and ways to connect with fellow featured brave women.

From Rock Bottom to World Travel: Sandy’s Letting Go Story

In this episode I get to hang out with Sandy, a trilingual world traveler originally from Germany who has been to 39 countries and now runs “Just Travel with Sandy,” leads group tours, and wrote a book about how travel shaped her life.

Sandy shares her “I Got it Girl” turning point of leaving her marriage after spending 28 years with an alcoholic husband. When he threatened their teenage daughter, Sandy asked him to leave and was quickly evicted while being financially dependent and forced to start her life over.

She describes hitting rock bottom, food stamps, odd jobs, giving up her horses, yet feeling happier than she was while rebuilding for her kids. Later realizing that she stayed for the kids but staying “for the children” can harm them more than help them. Sandy credits her new life to a deep spiritual practice, Dr. David Hawkins’ “Letting Go” book, and trusting that life happens for us, not to us. Sandy explains how she pivoted into full-time travel advising after losing her job and is now doing what she truly loves and it never feels like work.

In this episode of the I Got It Girl podcast, I get the honor to interview Laurie Hardie, who inspired me to start podcasting as a way to share stories and remind women they don’t have to carry everything alone. Laurie reflects on her “I Got it Girl” years as a single mom without support, the pressure of unrealistic expectations, and learning to let go in small ways, like accepting a sock basket and dishes in the sink without shame.

We discuss coaching and the importance of deep listening, reflection on our Enneagram number, the “helper” (and its unhealthy patterns), and how control and survival can block deeper love and connection. Laurie shares her path from radio to paid radio shows, writing a book, navigating being an empty nester and community loss. She now is helping women launch podcasts by empowering them on how to do it themselves and grow successfully. She closed on how storytelling is your legacy and speaking the truth without attachment and knowing you are making a difference.
