Transcend

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!  

Our episode today recounts my interview with Andrae Smith, Jr. and we talked about what it means when we say things happen for a reason, the question of fate vs. free will, fate vs. destiny, and how free will fits in with the concepts of fate and destiny.   

We talked about how sometimes things are hard because they just are, and it's our choices in how we respond to these hard things that determine how things will go, but things also happen specifically to teach us lessons, or to test us, yet it's still up to us how we choose to learn and grow during those lessons and tests. We also shared what our definitions of enlightenment are, and how we came to that understanding.   

One of the things I liked most about our talk was that life becomes so much easier when we can step back and allow things to happen as they happen; basically get out of our own way. When we have this idea of how things are supposed to go to the point where we fight against life when it goes a different direction, life becomes a lot more challenging.   

If we can go with the flow even when things are going in which we didn't think we wanted, we can have a much easier, more positive experience. Our reality is created by our perceptions, so how do we want to choose to see the world, and how do we choose to see ourselves in it?

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!   

I just interviewed Amy Pierre-Russo of Excelsior Pro Coaching, our podcast covered impostor syndrome and limiting beliefs, and overcoming this to achieve your goals. We used the "hamster wheel" analogy a lot to describe how people are just caught up in the same thing day after day but aren't really getting anywhere. Amy is a professional and entrepreneurial coach who overcame her own impostor syndrome and limiting beliefs to start her company, and is helping others do the same. We talked about not comparing ourselves to other people's journeys, remembering that what works for one person may not be what works for you, and the importance of staying focused on what DOES work and what feels good to you personally, and follow that passion.   

We also talked about the importance of surrounding yourself with people who are positive and uplifting so that you can stay in that higher vibration. Limiting beliefs come from our insecurities, and we talked about how social media can cause us to feel like we're not good enough or not doing enough, because all we ever see are the highlights people share and post, and we forget that they're human with bad days and struggles, too. Every successful person has dealt with fears and limiting beliefs at some point on their journey, but they found a way to overcome it instead of succumb to it to get where they are, and Amy's coaching business helps people achieve success in the same way.

Hello and welcome to a very special episode of Transcend with Jami Christine!

I am so excited to announce my new book Transcend Your Story! Andrae was so kind to invite me on his podcast to talk about my movement of Divine Inspiration: writing this book to help aspiring authors transcend their mental and emotional pain in the same way I did when I wrote my first book, The Transcendent. On this episode we talk about how I went about writing this new book and the many topics that it covers, all oriented to help authors talk about their emotional pain in book format.

Thank you all so much for your support so far!

While this book is essentially for aspiring authors who want to transform their story of life challenge, healing, and growth into an inspiring novel, it has the potential to touch the hearts of everyone. We’ve all been on a journey this last year and a half, and the best thing we can do for ourselves and humanity is to grow in a positive way.

I hope this book inspires you to do just that.

Andrae Smith, Jr. best-selling author, editor, book writing coach, and founder of the Illuminated Authors program. He helps inspired entrepreneurs, speakers, and movement leaders write high-impact, value-driven books that transform lives.

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!

I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing my friend JA Sweeney this past week. 

What I love most about Jen and her mission as a children's author is how she believes everyone has something to bring to life's table. It's when you see everyone as special and unique that opens the door to seeing how beautiful they are as people and how important their place in your story they are. Every book Jen writes reflects this and teaches kids to see themselves as the blessing they are.

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!

Ted Smith is back on the podcast in a surprising new location: Salt Lick Point in Valmeyer, IL. We hiked out and off the beaten path for some great conversation about continuously evolving lives.

One of the most impactful topics that we discussed is how the experiences and tribulations that happen to us are happening for us. This mindset shift is a ridiculously huge unlock that opens the doors to so much inner peace, growth, and perspective. While it's difficult to appreciate in the moment, trauma is a blessing that leads to new avenues of healing and transformation.

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!

I recently got the amazing opportunity to sit down and chat with my friend Linda Thiele, Reiki Practitioner.

We got the chance to talk about a bunch of topics on today's podcast, but one of my favorites that we talked about is Angels. As we all know, the universe is filled with spiritual beings. Linda opens a gateway into her experiences with Angels and Archangels in her life. Do you ask angels to help you on your journey?

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!  

Today's episode is a super special team-up between Transcend and Rob's podcast The Tricast Experience. Not only did we want to test out some new mics, but we also were fired up to talk about toxic masculinity.   

Now toxic masculinity can be a charged topic, so we hope in this episode that we do a good job of balancing both sides of the discussion, while also opening up the topic for new listeners with some interesting takes.  How do you feel about the term "toxic masculinity"? Is the label too toxic or is what it's pointing at worth shinning the light on?

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!

Today we are joined by Rebecca Merrill, nutritionist, nutrition coach, and fitness specialist. We covered so much in this podcast, but all of it surrounded our shared expertise in physical, mental, and spiritual wellness. 

One of my favorite topics we touched on was listening to your body. There is a myriad of different diets and wellness practices out there, and while there can often be a lot of hype around them, the most important factor in choosing the right diet is listening to your body. Whether that's breaking unhealthy habits, dropping lactose, or lowering your blood sugar.

What are your biggest questions about nutrition and wellness? The most popular questions will be answered on a future podcast!

Hello and welcome to Transcend with Jami Christine!     

This episode is especially special, as it's from the recent speech I gave to the Red Bud High School girl's event at De Vinos Winery: Coffee & Conversation. We talked about empowering women and what encouraging them looks like, no matter what path they choose.   

Not only was this an amazing honor to be asked to share my expertise and passion with a group of incredibly thoughtful young girls, but more importantly it was also a chance for me to empower these young women with the lessons of my personal life experience.   

One of my favorite topics I talked about was how we as a community are placing judgments on each other because of our own limited perspective on what "normal" looks like. Not only is this unhealthy because it creates negative internal thinking, but it also creates unhelpful expectations on how others should think and act. It is so crucial for us to shed the weight of these preconceived notions of how other people should live. Doing so will lead to a healthier, happier, and more fulfilled community.   

Let me know your thoughts! I would love to know what impacted you most about my talk in order to bring these lessons to more people!
