    169 | Self-Trust Through the Nervous System: Bridging the Mind-Body Connection
    Feb 23 2026

    Let’s talk self-trust beyond the cliche. So often we think self-trust is about affirmations, discipline, or “just believing in ourselves.” I used to think that too. I thought pushing through, showing up no matter what, and being the “consistency queen” meant I trusted myself. But I’ve learned that real self-trust isn’t about force..it lives in the body, in the nervous system, where and when we feel safe, steady, and regulated.

    I share my own journey from hyper-discipline and override to presence and embodiment, and why emotional consistency is the true foundation of self-trust. I also break down practical ways to start tuning into your body and building trust from the inside out.

    Full breakdown of the episode:

    • The difference between self-discipline and authentic self-trust.
    • How self-trust is rooted in the nervous system, not just mindset or affirmations.
    • Overriding the body vs listening to your felt sense.
    • Emotional consistency as the foundation for embodied self-trust.
    • Small, daily practices that signal safety to the nervous system.

    This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt disconnected from their body, struggled to trust themselves, or found themselves constantly overthinking and overdoing. If that’s you, I promise there’s something here that will help you anchor in your body and feel steady again.

    Plus, I’m sharing details about my 3-part workshop series on March 7th at Rooted Collective 201: How to Build Trust in Yourself by Reconnecting with Your Felt Sense. We’ll go deeper into discerning flow from force, understanding your internal operating system, and strengthening your relationship with your inner signals.

    I pray this episode will grow and help you in some way. Sending my love and light,

    J

    168 | Healing Through Vulnerability: Owning Her Experiences While Building Community and Doing the Inner Work with Brooke Paulson, Co-Founder of Rooted Collective 201
    Feb 16 2026
    Some conversations simply matter more than words can capture. This is one of them. In this episode, we’re talking about healing through vulnerability.. what it actually looks like to own your story while building something meaningful in the world. Brooke Paulson, co-founder of Rooted Collective 201 in Blanchardville, joins me for a conversation that feels like one of the many deep talks we have on the weekly.. just recorded. Rooted Collective 201 is a farm-to-table and maker’s market home to more than 60 collective members. Maker-made goods. Homegrown products. Local artisans. It’s a true collective built on intention, collaboration, and community. But this conversation goes beyond business. We talk about what it takes to speak openly about suicide, alcoholism, and eating disorders.. not from a present collapse, but from embodied truth. What it means to lead publicly while doing private, intimate, inner work. And how healing through vulnerability shapes the way we show up in our relationships, our leadership, and our communities. Inside this episode: What healing through vulnerability looks like in real life, not theoryThe intersection of leadership and emotional workHow Root-Cause Therapy is supporting deeper healingThe heart behind Rooted Collective 201The February fundraiser supporting eating disorder awareness and community healing This episode isn’t polished. It isn’t perfect. [ you can get that sense with me trying a new mic combo and the audio is sub par, my apologies. ] But, it’s real. If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to build something outwardly powerful while healing inwardly, let’s dive in. I pray this episode will grow and help you in some way. Sending my love and light, J **Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide, alcoholism, and eating disorders. Please listen with care.

  • 167 | Alcohol as a Protector: The Most Vulnerable Episode I’ve Ever Shared

    167 | Alcohol as a Protector: The Most Vulnerable Episode I’ve Ever Shared
    Feb 9 2026
    This is by far the most vulnerable episode I have ever shared. For a long time, alcohol showed up as a protector in my life. There were years where I didn’t yet know how to sit with my emotions, and alcohol helped me soften the edges, quiet the noise, and disconnect when everything felt like too much. It offered relief, acute calm, and even a sense of confidence when my nervous system felt overwhelmed. And for a long time, that protection served a purpose. [ I didn’t know it at the time, trust me ] In this episode, I share the parts of the journey that are rarely spoken about.. the guilt, the anxiety, the relapses, and the emotional work that eventually allowed me to stay present instead of escaping over and over again. I talk openly about the moments that cracked me open, the awareness that changed everything, and how Root Cause Therapy helped me access and release what was actually driving the pattern beneath the behavior. This episode isn’t solely about sobriety. Sobriety became a natural byproduct of the deeper work shared here. So maybe alcohol was never your coping mechanism. Maybe it’s another substance, a habit, or a pattern you lean on to avoid or distract. At its core, this episode is about learning how to stay present with discomfort, how to protect yourself from the inside out, and how Root Cause Therapy supported me in feeling, releasing, and integrating emotion.. rather than managing or suppressing it. If you’ve ever relied on something to get through… and felt a deeper pull toward wholeness…I recorded this with you in mind. This was recorded with so much care. I hope it meets you exactly where you are. I pray this episode will grow and help you in some way.
