What to Expect:

Welcome back to Omaha Mom Talks! I’m so excited to have you join us for today’s episode.

In this episode, Jessie is joined by fellow therapist and friend Jaime Weatherholdt, LCSW, LIMHP, to talk about two powerful trauma-healing modalities: EMDR and Brainspotting.

A quick refresher on what EMDR is and how it helps.

A down-to-earth explanation of Brainspotting (what it feels like in the room + why it's so impactful).

How EMDR and Brainspotting are alike, and how to know which may be right for you.

Jaime's insights for moms, clients, and even therapists who are curious about training in these methods.

September 24, 2025 Perimenopause and What Our Mothers Didn’t Warn Us About
Welcome back to Omaha Mom Talks! In this week’s episode, we’re tackling a topic so many women quietly struggle with but rarely get real answers about - perimenopause. From shifting hormones to the emotional rollercoaster – we wanna know – what’s going on in our bodies and how can we feel better?

I’m joined by Dr. Jaime Seeman (AKA Doctor Fit and Fabulous) - an OBGYN, mom, wife, and passionate advocate for women’s health. Together we break down what’s really happening with our hormones, why so many women feel dismissed by providers, and what you can do to feel better and
advocate for yourself.

What to Expect:
·       What perimenopause is and how it’s different from menopause
·       Common (and surprising) symptoms you may be overlooking
·       How hormones affect brain health, mood, and mental wellness
·       How to advocate for yourself when your labs come back “normal” but you don’t feel normal
·       Lifestyle, medical, and self-care strategies to help you feel more like yourself

September 17, 2025Perfectionism + Anxiety in Motherhood
Welcome back to Season 3 of Omaha Mom Talks! This week’s episode is a deep dive into how perfectionism and anxiety show up for many of us - and how to start breaking the cycle.

Are you someone who holds yourself to high standards and still feel like you’re never doing enough? Are you tired of chasing the perfect mom myth? In this solo episode, Jessie dives into perfectionism, anxiety, and why “good enough” mothering really is enough.

What to Expect:

Why so many moms secretly feel like they're "not doing enough"

How perfectionism sneaks into everyday parenting (and fuels anxiety)

Why "good enough" mothering is more than enough

Small mindset shifts to loosen perfectionism's grip

Reflection and journal prompts to help you reframe and reset
If you've ever lain awake at night replaying your day or beating yourself up over "not being better," this one's for you.

July 16, 2025The Past is Present: Healing Childhood Wounds, EMDR & Parts Work Ft. Carly Costello
In this episode, I’m joined by West Virginia-based therapist Carly Costello, who specializes in helping people heal from childhood trauma using EMDR and parts work (IFS). Together, we explore how our unhealed childhood experiences show up in our parenting - and how healing is not only possible but powerful.

This is the episode for every mom who’s ever wondered: “Why did I react that way?” or “Why does this moment with my child feel so big?”

Hint: It’s not just the moment. It’s your past showing up in the present.

What to Expect:
Why parenting often triggers childhood wounds and what to do about it

What EMDR therapy is and how it helps moms heal (without having to relive the trauma)

A real-talk breakdown of "parts work" and how it helps you connect with your inner child

How healing your own stuff helps you feel more regulated as a parent

What trauma actually means (hint: it's not just about big events)

What to do if you had a "good" childhood but still feel stuck or reactive

Signs that your inner child may need care, attention, and healing

How Carly blends EMDR and parts work to support generational healing
