inside OUT with Jojo Cottle

Before you click away because you think tarot is too "out there," stay with me.

In this episode of Inside OUT, Jojo sits down with Dina Berrin, an author, certified life coach, and intuitive guide who treats tarot as a language and a map of the human experience, not a party trick or a crystal ball. If you have never touched a deck in your life, this is your grounded, no judgment way in.

Dina breaks down what tarot actually is: a deck of 78 cards split into the minor arcana and the major arcana, full of symbolism that reflects the universal human story of love, fear, growth, endings, and new beginnings. You will learn how to read the colors and images on a card, how to look for patterns in a spread, and how tarot quietly moves you from asking "is he going to call me back" to asking "what am I learning" and "what am I avoiding."

Then Jojo puts Dina on the spot for a live reading, and what comes up is so specific it is a little scary. They get into the 2026 year card, personal year cards, numerology, and the one question underneath every question people ever bring to the deck: am I going to be okay?

If you are a skeptic, an overthinker, or someone who needs it to make logical sense before you let it in, this one is for you.

Everyone's nervous system is jacked. We're vibrating at high levels, stuck in the rat race, and calling a shopping spree "self-care." On this episode of Inside OUT, Jojo sits down with married therapist + coach duo Kiana and Andrew of Soul Journey Project to break down what real wellness looks like, the kind that actually resets your nervous system instead of just looking good on TikTok. We walk through their 7 Keys to Wellness, one by one, with practical, no-cost ways to bring each one into a busy life. Then we get into co-regulation: what actually happens when two dysregulated people try to communicate, and the difference between a relationship and a true partnership. This one's all about going internal for the external, not the other way around.

You've done the therapy. Read the books. Cried it out at a retreat. So why does that critical voice in your head keep winning?

This week, trauma therapist Jessica Fern (bestselling author of Polysecure) and David Cooley (creator of Restorative Relationship Conversations) join me to expose the Shame Triangle: the hidden pattern keeping you stuck in self criticism, shame, and escape. And here's the wild part. They've been married, divorced, and now coparent and write books together. They don't just teach this. They've survived it.

Once you hear this, you'll see the triangle everywhere. In yourself. In the people you love. In the "personality traits" that were never really you.

Press play and let's get MESy.

We talk a lot about grieving people we lose  but what about grieving the versions of ourselves that didn't make it? The dream that faded, the relationship that revealed you weren't showing up as yourself, the life you thought you were building that quietly fell apart?

In this episode, I sit down with Lionel Moses, Desert Storm veteran, twice divorced, business builder, and author of The Marriage Seed  and we get into the kind of grief nobody puts on the checklist. The grief of lost time. The grief of the people pleaser you became. The grief of the authentic version of you that was locked up while you performed for everyone else.

This one is going to land differently. We talk about:

• Why grief is a trajectory, not a state and where it's actually sending you
• How to grieve time instead of events
• What purposeful singleness really means (and why it's not just about being single)
• Why unaddressed grief is cancerous  and what happens when you finally face it
• The funeral you need to have for the version of you that didn't make it

If you've ever felt like the life you're living doesn't match the one you imagined this episode is for you.

Have you ever scrolled through Instagram and felt that gut punch? Someone's getting married. Someone's pregnant. Someone just bought a house. Someone got promoted again. And suddenly there's this voice whispering, what's wrong with me, why am I not there yet?

In this solo episode of Inside OUT, Jojo gets MESy with the lie of "being behind." Inspired by a train metaphor she came across on Instagram, she unpacks why we measure our insides against everyone else's outsides, why comparison is actually grief in disguise, and how the detours you've called delays were actually your teachers all along.

We're navigating this mentally (whose timeline are you even living by?), emotionally (what's underneath that shame spiral?), and spiritually (you were never on their route to begin with). Jojo shares her own recent cross-country move from New York, the jealousy that crept in when someone else's life seemed to be unfolding faster, and the powerful reframe that brought her back to her own path.

If you've been feeling late, lost, or like life is moving for everyone but you, this episode is a love letter to your nervous system. Your train is moving. Even slowly. Even after the stops. You are not late. You are on your own route.

Jojo is back after an unplanned month away and she is not coming back the same. In this episode she gets honest about what it actually feels like to be in the middle of a major life transition, not at the start, not on the other side, but right in the thick of it.

If you have ever done the big thing, made the bold move, chosen yourself, and then wondered why it still feels hard, this episode is for you.

Protecting your peace is everywhere right now and yes there is something real in it. But what if your peace has quietly become a wall? In this solo episode Jojo unpacks the difference between protecting your peace as a foundation versus using it as a fortress to keep everyone out. She gets into why your nervous system might be wired to read chaos as chemistry and stability as boring, what it actually means to regulate before you reintegrate, and why safe is not the same as healed. If you have been wondering why you keep attracting the same dynamic, why nothing ever gets deeper, or whether your boundaries are actually just fear dressed up in self help language this one is for you. This episode pairs with last week's When the Other Shoe Doesn't Drop so go back and listen if you haven't yet.

What if the reason you're stuck isn't a you problem but a we problem? In this episode, Jojo sits down with relational leadership mentor and initiation guide Mike Elliott to unpack why so many of us are walking around disconnected in adult bodies still run by an adaptive child. Mike breaks down the science of secure attachment, what it actually means to function from your wise adult brain, and why healing in isolation might be the very thing keeping you from the life and love you want. They get into the three phases of relational consciousness, the reparenting framework Mike uses with his clients, and why vulnerability is not your weakness but your greatest power. This one will rewire the way you think about relationships, growth, and what it means to actually show up for your own life.
