The world can cut us down in subtle or grandeur ways, but only if we aren't in control of our emotions, and our body's response to those emotions. In today's episode, Jenny gives us some great pointers and places to start for building that emotional control as well as maintaining it.

Parenting can be a difficult task, and that can be seen by anyone - with or without children. It can be even more difficult when we ourselves have not received the parenting we needed when we were in that child's shoes; when we have not received that love and support that we may have needed so desperately. In today's training, Jenny offers us a gentle approach to reparenting ourselves so we receive that reassuring hold around us when we need it most, and can continue giving ourselves as we he...

In today's episode of Shed The Shame, Jenny teaches us how to turn perceived flaws and weaknesses into some of our greatest strengths. One of the things that society is best at is teaching us to hide our flaws, to be ashamed of them, and focus on avoiding them. But today, we learn to embrace them, to switch perspectives on where they can be useful, and figuring out their opposing and corresponding strengths. Jenny also encourages us to seek conversation with others in figuring out what we are...

In this episode, Jenny discusses how the brain tries to protect us by coming up with 'reasons' we feel we can't succeed or achieve their goals, but those 'reasons' are just negative thoughts and limiting beliefs that stem from past experiences, voices we've internalized, and fears around change or potential failure. Jenny helps us understand why negative thoughts exist so we can shift our perspectives, build belief in ourselves, and develop the motivation to achieve our dreams despite challen...
