Got a backhanded comment from a "friend" the last time you got excited about something? This one's for you.

This week on She's Rooted, Mo and I are talking about dealing with negative people, backhanded comments, and the self-doubt that creeps in right when you're finally taking action on your dream. We get into the real difference between someone protecting you out of love vs. someone tearing you down out of their own insecurity — and exactly how to tell which one you're dealing with.

I share some of my own stories — family members publicly trashing my business, "friends" showing up with someone else's coffee instead of mine — and why the loudest critics are usually the people doing the least with their own lives.

New here? This is Part 3 of our Messy Action series — go back and catch Parts 1 & 2 if you missed them.

If this hits home, send it to a friend who needs to hear it today, and hit follow so you don't miss next week's episode.

Stay rooted, sis.

Have you ever felt like the thing you want to do has to stay small because everything else in your life is demanding big?

Yeah. We need to talk about that.

In Episode 52 we are continuing our stumbling block series and this one is personal. We are going deep on playing small — what it actually means, why we do it, and the difference between making something small because your season demands it versus making something small because you don't believe it deserves a seat at the table. Those are two very different things and one of them is quietly working against everything you want.

We are also getting into the outside noise. The backhanded comments. The friend who walks into your coffee shop with a Starbucks. The person you keep sharing your excitement with who just gives you a wall. We talk about why those moments hit so hard, what to do when they do, and how to decide what you are actually going to receive and store as truth — and what you are going to crumple up and toss.

In this episode we get into:

• Why playing something small does not have to mean it is insignificant — and how to know the difference
• How spreading one exciting thing across your whole day is actually what kills your momentum not the thing itself
• Why you do not need other people to be excited for your excitement in order to keep going
• How to take comments captive before they take root in your mind and become your belief
• Why their lack of belief is about them and not you
• How to stop comparing your chapter two to somebody else's chapter five hundred
• Why you have to take yourself seriously before anyone else will
• What it means to do it until — and why that is the only timeline that matters
• How to go to bed at night and actually feel proud of what you showed up for today

This is for the woman who keeps shrinking the thing that matters to her because she is waiting for the right season, the right support, or the right amount of time. You do not need any of those things. You need a small pocket of time and an all in mentality inside of it.

Don't play it small even if you can only give it small. Press play.

Have you ever looked at your calendar and wondered where the time went — and why the one thing you actually want to do keeps getting pushed to the bottom of the list?

Yeah. We know that feeling.

In this episode we are getting real about the two stumbling blocks that are standing between you and the dream you keep telling yourself you will get to someday. And we are breaking them down with zero filter because we have lived both of them firsthand building this very podcast from scratch.

Stumbling Block One: Time. Not the lack of it — the belief around it. We talk about why you keep letting everything else bump your goal off the calendar, how to actually time block for the thing that matters to you without the guilt, why later never works and what to do instead, and how 20 messy minutes beats zero perfect ones every single time.

Stumbling Block Two: Playing Small. This one stings. If you have ever caught yourself thinking it is just a little thing I am doing — that belief is quietly working against everything you want. We dig into why women undervalue their own goals, how to stop waiting until something feels worthy enough to protect, and what it looks like to finally give your dream a real seat at the table even before it is making you money or making sense to anyone else.

We also get into:

• Why your belief drives your action and your action drives your results — and what to do if you do not like what you are getting
• How to start something when you have absolutely no idea how to do it
• Why messy action will always beat waiting until you are ready
• How to let go of needing a guaranteed result and show up anyway
• What consistency really looks like when life is full and the timing is never perfect
• How to find your ignition — the real reason your goal matters — so it stops being optional

This is for the woman who has the dream, keeps pushing it down the list, and tells herself she will get to it when things slow down. Things are not going to slow down. But you can get rooted in what matters and start showing up for it today.

Even if it is messy. Especially if it is messy.

Pull up a chair, grab your coffee, and press play. We are your two besties and we are not going to let you play small today.

How to stop overthinking and finally start — the mindset shift that changes everything.

If perfectionism, fear of failure, or the pressure to "have it all together" before you start are keeping you stuck, this episode is your wake-up call. On this milestone 50th episode, Jamie & Mo get honest about how messy action — not perfect planning — is the actual secret behind everything worth doing.

In this episode you'll learn: why waiting to feel ready is the biggest trap women fall into, how to silence the analysis paralysis that social media creates, why small consistent steps will always outperform the "go big or go home" mindset, and how to find — and trust — your own lane when everyone's telling you to do it differently. Proof of concept: this podcast. 50 episodes. No studio. No script. Just two women who hit record before they had all the answers. You can do the same.

You keep saying you want more. More confidence. Better health. A career that actually fits. A life that feels like yours. But if you're being honest — are your actions matching what you say you want?

This episode is about personal ownership. Not as a buzzword. As a way of life.

Jamie and Mo get real about what it actually looks like to stop pointing fingers at your circumstances, your past, your job, your family — and start asking the harder question: what's my part in this?

Because here's what they know to be true: you get what you tolerate. And if nothing in your life is changing, something in your choices has to.

In this conversation they talk about:

• Why it's easy to take ownership when life is good — and why most people drop it the second things get hard

• The difference between understanding your past and using it as a permanent excuse

• How to build real confidence by simply doing what you say you're going to do

• What to do when you can't tell if something is out of your control or if you're just telling yourself that

• Why you cannot coast uphill — and what it looks like to actually start pedaling

This is a tough love episode. The kind where you might feel called out. That's the point. If you have someone in your life who tells you the truth even when it's uncomfortable — you know how much that matters. That's what this is.

Press play. Take notes. And then go do something with it.

Have you ever been in the middle of chasing something that really matters to you and hit a wall so hard you started wondering if it was even worth it? Yeah. Us too. And that is exactly what we are getting into today.

Mo and I are breaking down why frustration is not a sign to stop — it is actually a sign that you are in it. The real it. The stuff worth fighting for.

We are talking about the difference between quitting and pivoting, why motivation will always fade on you and what to lean on instead, and how to stop carrying the weight of things you were never meant to bring with you in the first place.

We also get into something that stopped both of us in our tracks — the idea that believing in yourself doesn't mean you won't get frustrated. It just means you won't stop when you do.

If you are sitting in a season right now where everything feels heavy, where you are second guessing yourself, where you are so close to throwing in the towel on something that actually matters to you — this episode is for you.

You have not missed your window. You are not too late. And frustration is not a stop sign.

It is a signal to refocus on your reason why.

Pull up a chair. We saved you a seat.

Tune in for a transformational conversation that will help you protect your peace and take control of your days—one calm decision at a time.

XoXo- Jamie & Mo

Sis, we need to talk about protecting your peace.

Because somewhere between trying to keep everyone happy, staying loyal to things that stopped serving you, and shrinking yourself so nobody feels uncomfortable — you lost yourself. And the scariest part? You already know it.

You know the situation you need to walk away from. You know the yes you've been sitting on. You know that the version of you that you keep putting on the back burner? She's the one who deserves to be front and center.

In this episode we get brutally honest about what it actually costs you when you keep waiting — waiting for the right time, waiting for someone's approval, waiting to stop being afraid — while your health, your confidence, and your purpose quietly pay the price.

This one is going to hit different if you have ever:

• Stayed too long in something because you didn't want to hurt someone else
• Known exactly what you needed to do and talked yourself out of it anyway
• Said yes when everything inside you was screaming no
• Put your own goals, health, and happiness last and called it loyalty

The truth is sis — nobody is coming to give you permission. Not your friends. Not your family. Not the people you've been bending over backwards to protect. The only person who can choose you — is you.

And the longer you wait, the louder that quiet knowing inside you has to scream to get your attention.

This episode will help you get so rooted in who you are and what you need that outside noise, other people's opinions, and the fear of letting someone down will no longer have the power to keep you stuck.

Your peace is worth protecting. Your yes matters. And you were never meant to live small.

Now stop waiting. You already have everything you need.

Girl, we need to talk.Are you tired of scrolling through a feed full of content that feels like it was written by a robot — because it was? Are you consuming so much curated, filtered, AI-generated noise that you've started to forget what real actually sounds like? Yeah. Us too.In this episode, we're getting into something that we know a lot of you are feeling but maybe haven't said out loud yet. We are living in a moment in history where you have to decide — are you going to numb yourself with the endless digital scroll, or are you going to fight for your real, raw, unfiltered life?We talk about what it actually looks like to lose your voice to AI, to trends, to the pressure of being what everyone else expects you to be — and how that quiet erosion of yourself is one of the sneakiest ways women get in their own way. We've both been there.We also get into the beauty of real moments — the kind that aren't curated, the kind where the rain comes out of nowhere and why those are the moments that actually matter. Plus, Jamie drops a big audacious dream out loud for the first time on the podcast and we talk about what it looks like to show up as yourself so fully that you actually change your own legacy.Your voice is enough. It has always been enough. And this episode is your reminder. If you've been hiding behind a filter, a trend, or someone else's version of perfect — this one is for you, babe.Grab your coffee. Pull up a chair. Let's talk.Stay rooted. XoXo- Jamie & Mo

Hey, hey! Welcome back to the She's Rooted Podcast! Pull up a chair because this one hits different. We're talking about making the basics sexy — and no, we don't mean anything complicated. We mean the real stuff. The stuff that actually moves the needle on your health and your life.

Did you know the Twinkie in 1930 had five ingredients? Flour, eggs, sugar, butter, and vanilla. That's it. Today? the ingredient list is insane. And that right there is exactly why we need to have this conversation.

Jamie gets real about some personal life stuff happening right now that lit a fire under her, and honestly? It might light one under you too. We talk about why most of us don't have a discipline problem — we have a standards problem. We talk about steps, sleep, whole food, mindset, and why you cannot keep putting off the basics until life forces your hand.

Mo also brings her 87-year-old Twinkie-eating grandma into the conversation and honestly she might be the most quotable person on this whole podcast.

One of the best lines dropped on this episode: "We don't know the quantity of days we have. But we can absolutely determine the quality." If you needed a shake-up today, this is it. Let's get to the root of it.
