No Halos Here

Today Jen + Jane take you behind the scenes of what has been unfolding for them over the past few weeks. This includes a really honest look at what they have to say no to, how old patterns have been showing up again, and how two multi-passionate entrepreneurs focus and hone their magic.

How does fulfillment contribute to happiness? Can you still be happy and yet unfulfilled? How do you define happiness and fulfillment? Listen in as Jen + Jane unpack these words, what they mean (to them), and the stories we tell ourselves about what they mean. Jen shares about how moving the Abu Dhabi helped her define what fulfilled her and Jane looks through the lens of her own life experience to better define happiness and fulfillment.

Do you have the courage to explore what happiness and fulfillment are for you? Join Jen + Jane in Fierce Serenity, beginning the week of Feb. 21st for six weeks of looking at aspects of your life through the lens of Fierce Serenity. Visit https://www.wearejenandjane.com/fierce-serenity for more.

In this episode Jen + Jane discuss finding Fierce Serenity in everyday choices, living without regret for past decisions, and whether or not you can have forgiveness without self-compassion.

What does that look like for you?

Every day we are presented with choices about how we respond to people, things, events in our lives. We may choose to scroll instead of meditating. We may choose to eat the apple and skip the candy. But it’s the cumulative effects of these choices that lead us forward.

Listen in as Jen and Jane talk about the tiny choices and imperfect actions that move them through their day. By bringing awareness to the moment of choice, you can make incremental improvements that move us closer to where we want to go.

In this episode, Jen + Jane discuss the gifts of living in a polarized world and how we can notice our strong emotional responses and use them as a stepping stone to deeper compassion for those around us and for ourselves.

When we unplug from extremes, we can find a greater sense of peace within.

It’s a solo episode with Jen today, talking about taking care of all your various bodies - physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and your ‘quintessence’. Checking in with each of your bodies on a daily basis can lead to better decision-making, higher emotional intelligence, and improved relationship with self, and with others. Jen talks about the signs that you may not be seeing around tuning into your various bodies, as well as how to honor each of them on a daily basis.

In this week’s episode, we talk about what we had planned for this week. Annnnd how we decided to do something different. Jane discusses how a virus (not Covid) knocked her flat for the past 10 days and Jen talks about how she is feeling an urge to let go of documents, files, paperwork, and more, from her past. There is a real calling to go inward right now, so we are encouraging you all to prioritize self-care, highlight inner reflection, and see what comes up for you.

We refer to the Lee Harris Energy update for January 2022 - links are below.

As humans, we are hardwired for connection. With this basic need for connection, subconsciously, we can become emotional sponges, where we absorb and take on other people’s stuff, energetically and emotionally. We start to identify their problems as ours and this is why we want to introduce the concept of setting energetic boundaries, to help ask the question, “Is this mine to carry?”

Listen in as Jen and Jane personally connect with how they have taken on the unnecessary burden of processing their loved ones' stuff for them and how it isn't serving anyone. They discuss what it looks and feels like to have a Saviour complex with your friends and family and how you can get into the habit of always trying to fix things for other people. When we do this we are actually blocking others from learning how to fix or process their own stuff.

When we take on our own stuff and others, emotions can get trapped in the body, which turns into dis-ease and chronic pain. Jen and Jane explain what an emotional release is and how to implement it into your life when things are starting to get overwhelming.

When we are able to decipher what is our shit and what is others' shit, we can begin to heal and allow the other to do their own work. It also takes a huge weight off our shoulders.

Acknowledgment, Celebration (or not), and Reality. Where are you at?

This year has been a big one in so many ways: Big Emotions. Big Developments. Big Changes. Big Adjustments (or not). Just… well. Big.

Listen in as Jen + Jane debate on what (if anything) to celebrate, how to acknowledge what this year has been, and some tools and tips to support you over the Holiday season.

One of those tools is The Empowerment Playbook. If you haven’t already downloaded it, we encourage you to do that and set aside 20 minutes where you can move through some of the feelings you’re experiencing. It will support you with observing, noticing, and accepting where you’re at. It will help you articulate more clearly what you might be needing. Above all, we hope it will help bring you an opportunity for calm as we move through this.

Join Jen and Jane with guest Laura Craddock as they dive into how food and nutrition play an important role in supporting your nervous system. Laura shares how using a combination of somatic bodywork, nutrition, and herbs support her and her clients on an ongoing basis.

Treating your body holistically, using a range of techniques that support all its systems is one of the most effective ways to manage your nervous system and trauma response.
