  • 047: Navigating Inner Work and Healing with Therapist Jen Hershey of How We Get Thru

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today, we have an amazing episode featuring Jen Hershey. Jen is a mom, therapist, and the CEO + Founder of the How We Get Thru Podcast & Therapy App. I invited Jen to the show after being recommended to explore inner child work. I was initially unsure about what that meant, but Jen provided valuable insights and practical tips on this topic from a therapist's point of view.

    Jen shared incredible insights on various topics, including inner child work, nurturing ourselves through future self-work, trauma, healing through play, and adopting a curious perspective rather than a judgmental one.

    How We Get Thru is a community that Jen has created, offering spaces for women to engage in deep and healing conversations. With seven years of experience in private practice, Jen has been helping women overcome disordered eating and navigate the challenges of motherhood. Now, she extends her efforts by providing more spaces for people to heal through the HWGT community. Jen resides in Orange County, CA, with her husband, two kids, and three chickens.

    Be sure to follow Jen on Instagram, where she shares many amazing insights, and you might even catch a glimpse of the chickens that got me really excited. Jen generously offers a free month with the code "SimplyJess," and I highly recommend checking it out! We discuss the terrific platform and the valuable insights and help available on How We Get Thru, covering topics from parenting to social media anxiety.

    Send us Fan Mail

    We have a wonderful episode for you today with repeat guest Diana Shanley. Diana is a vivacious life coach, speaker, workshop facilitator, and mom of 2 young boys who went from operating on autopilot and overwhelm to embracing gratitude and joy to call in success, abundance, and love. She coaches other women on how to step out of survival mode and into a life they enjoy waking up to each morning by tapping into the power of play.

    Diana first came onto our show earlier this year where she shared her story of finding joy as a mom when we are pulled in so many different directions. Finding joy in our lives and making sure we prioritize it. If you haven't heard that one, it is episode 22, click here to listen: Episode 22

    Today we are discussing something a lot of us can relate to: the feeling of discouragement. Whether it is feeling discouraged by not hitting a goal you were hoping to achieve, a business or financial situation, weight loss not going the way you want, or even relationships. We talked about examples of this and how to get through it. Diana is amazing and shared so much wisdom with us once again, and I am so grateful. Can't wait for you to hear this one.

  • 042: Vital Immune Support: The Role of Vitamin C, Magnesium, and Zinc with Vitaminis Founder Leslie Danford

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today we have guest Leslie Danford, the founder and CEO of Vitaminis, the first scale brand in functional food and beverages for families. She has always been passionate about nutrition, but she is not a foodie. In 2020 she combined her personal interests with her formal business training to launch Vitaminis. Previously she worked in beverages and consumer products at large corporations. She earned her MBA from Harvard University and her BA from the University of Chicago.

    We discussed 3 powerhouse supplements:

    • Vitamin C
    • Magnesium
    • Zinc

    This was great timing as the cold and flu season is upon us! I loved learning that although these three supplements are great for immune support, they offer so much more in terms of health benefits.

    You can learn more about Vitaminis here: 

    Vitaminis, Leslie's company, is a clean-label functional food and beverage brand. They produce nutritional juice shots that promote immune support and gut health with a focus on clean ingredients. Their products are non-GMO, vegan, and allergen-friendly.

  • 041: Embracing Authenticity: Anna Przy's Journey to Body Acceptance and Mental Health Advocacy

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today on the LTG podcast we have guest Anna Przybylski, a dynamic and hilarious millennial who's made a significant impact in the mental health and social media realm. Anna's not-so-serious approach has been a breath of fresh air in a world overwhelmed by the pressures we all face. This Midwesterner with a sweet-toned voice fearlessly tackles the fear of the unknown, debunks the myth of hustle culture, and addresses issues like body image with a realistic and lighthearted perspective. As they say, sometimes laughter truly is the best medicine.

    In our conversation, Anna shares her journey of becoming a social media sensation by simply being her authentic self online. Her message of granting oneself permission to take breaks and embracing the idea that rest can be productive is something that many of us need to hear. As she continued sharing her experiences online, she not only helped others but also experienced personal growth in her own life.

    We also delve into the important topic of body acceptance and discuss Anna's personal experience dealing with eating disorders. Her openness and willingness to share her story can be a source of inspiration and support for many.

    Anna is going on tour in November, you can learn more about her Keep It Up Cutie tour and dates here

    Ever felt like you needed a breather but didn’t know how to take one? I recently took a leap of faith and went on a yoga retreat that turned out to be just what I needed! This was a chance to step away from my usual schedule and make time for self-care, something we all tend to neglect. I can't wait to share my experiences and takeaways I experienced this weekend. 

    In this episode of the Learning to Glow Podcast I share my takeaways, the benefits and the 7 reasons I felt re-charged after this weekend in Joshua Tree which are: 

    • Mindfullness
    • Movement 
    • Break from Day to Day
    • Community/Connection
    • Nature
    • Self-Care
    • Growth
