In this episode of The Wisdom Work podcast, Christy and Christa welcome a special guest and it’s someone they couldn’t be more excited to share with you: Nancy Gentle Boudrie.

Have you ever felt like you were giving so much to everyone else that there was nothing left for you? Nancy knows that feeling all too well and has turned it into a mission.

Nancy’s journey from running an insurance agency to becoming a transformational coach is as inspiring as it is relatable. She opens up about the “perpetual fixer” trap, pouring from an empty cup, and the wake-up moments that led her to create her pathway to Inner Peace, a methodology that blends neuroscience, mindfulness, positive psychology, energetics, and spirituality.

This conversation is packed with “aha” moments and tools you can start using today to navigate life with more intention and peace.

If you’ve ever found yourself giving until there’s nothing left or wondering “Who am I, really?,” this episode will feel like a deep breath and a gentle nudge forward.

Bio & Description:

In this episode of Wisdom Work, Christy and Christa delve into the powerful concept of reweaving, the conscious act of unlearning, relearning, and reshaping the internal and external threads that comprise our lives. Whether those threads are tied to generational habits, cultural norms, or long-held personal beliefs, reweaving invites us to pause, reflect, and begin again, intentionally.

Together, they unpack what it means to reweave your story, how to notice the patterns you've inherited or adopted, and how to shift them in ways that bring more alignment, balance, and healing—not just for yourself, but for your family, your relationships, and your greater community. From small mindset shifts to generational transformation, this episode offers a thoughtful and grounded invitation to begin your own journey of change.

Whether you’re at a crossroads, in a season of reflection, or simply curious about doing the deeper work, this episode is for you!

We’re back! After a much-needed break, Christa and Christy are excited to dive into The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins. This book gave us so many lightbulb moments, and in this episode, we’re breaking down why learning to "let them" (be who they are, do what they do) and "let me" (focus on what brings us joy) can be life-changing.

We’ll talk about:

• How trying to control others only drains us
• The importance of setting healthy boundaries (without shutting people out)
• Learning to let go of what others think and focus on what makes us happy
• Real-life examples of how this mindset shift has helped us

Oh, and we also celebrate the Eagles' NFC Championship win—because, of course, Go Birds!

Join us for an honest conversation about personal growth, relationships, and finding more peace in everyday life. Let’s get into it!
