  • S2E27: Transform Your Relationship with Complaining
    Jill pulls Anita into a conversation about complaining after Anita posted on social media lamenting her very busy weekend that she wasn't looking forward to at all. Our relationship with complaining had been on Anita's mind for a few weeks and Jill deep dives with her into how we could transform our relationship with this form of self expression.
    The women talk about what's under the surface of complaining, how trying not to complain can lead to an unfulfilling life, and how to listen to complainers with compassion and empathy.

  • S2E26: Maybe it's your need, maybe it's your outdated belief system and childhood wound
    Anita and Jill recorded an episode on Anita's recent realization about financial safety. But when she was editing it, Anita discovered there was way more to the story than she initially believed. After free flow writing about it, and enlisting the help of the podcast's singer Brandi Harvey, and her mom, Anita was ready to re-record the episode with much more clarity and insight.
    This episode uses Anita's realization about financial safety to talk about the issues that arise in our relationships (with ourselves and others) when we carry outdated belief systems and childhood wounds into our adult lives.

  • S2E25: The Fake Orgasm Life
    Jill opens up about a recent realization she had in which she feels like she's lost her razzle-dazzle. Anita and Jill explore the the loss and find that it's related very much to people pleasing. The women equate it to faking an orgasm and describe what The Fake Orgasm Life feels like and looks like.
    They discuss the process of self awareness and the shear panic/fear that often times follows. Jill goes on to share her process of moving beyond the fear to a place of curiosity and acceptance and opens herself to learning what pleases her again.

About The Pause Button 2.0

From the publisher's feed

Jill Johns and Anita Brown believe in, practice, and advocate for guilt-free self-care. Beyond physical practices that keep us well, the women discuss self care that often *isn't* talked about: acknowledging emotions and letting them inform decisions that will help make our relationships grow deeper and stronger. Bringing barriers to emotional and physical self care into awareness is always step one with these two. Each week they offer a raw conversation about anything that has to do with practicing self-care in a society that applauds busy, stoic, ladder climbers.
