When Your World is Falling Apart: How to Persevere in Your Weakest Moments

The world can cut us down in subtle or grandeur ways, but only if we aren't in control of our emotions, and our body's response to those emotions. In today's episode, Jenny gives us some great pointers and places to start for building that emotional control as well as maintaining it. Looking within ourselves for answers instead of solely relying on others can be one of our greatest assets if we so choose, but it's still always good to have a truly supportive tribe around us.

Master Your Future: Harness the Power of Reparenting for Habit Transformation

12/20/2023
Parenting can be a difficult task, and that can be seen by anyone - with or without children. It can be even more difficult when we ourselves have not received the parenting we needed when we were in that child's shoes; when we have not received that love and support that we may have needed so desperately. In today's training, Jenny offers us a gentle approach to reparenting ourselves so we receive that reassuring hold around us when we need it most, and can continue giving ourselves as we heal that inner child and form new, healthy habits to achieve our dreams and goals. Being kind to your inner child is being kind to yourself today. You deserve it. NEW!!! FREE SHED THE SHAME PROTOCOL → Get it HERE!

In today's episode of Shed the Shame, Jenny discusses how taking care of yourself can sometimes do more harm than good when we overload ourselves with too many things at the wrong times and set impossible expectations for ourselves. We start off with a sweet and simple gesture to give ourselves what we need most and to be our best, but may soon find that we are overwhelmed with yet another checklist of responsibilities that overtake our time and energy, leaving us feeling defeated. So how can you find balance so you don’t reach that tipping point? Jenny provides us the red flags to watch out for and offers tips to make self care sustainable... without the overwhelm. NEW!!!

Imperfectly Powerful: Turn Your Flaws into Your Greatest Assets

10/25/2023
In today's episode of Shed The Shame, Jenny teaches us how to turn perceived flaws and weaknesses into some of our greatest strengths. One of the things that society is best at is teaching us to hide our flaws, to be ashamed of them, and focus on avoiding them. But today, we learn to embrace them, to switch perspectives on where they can be useful, and figuring out their opposing and corresponding strengths. Jenny also encourages us to seek conversation with others in figuring out what we are good at, and using constructive criticism on how to accept our flaws or how to thrive with them instead of struggling against them. Embrace a new found self-compassion and gratitude while learning to turn mistakes into opportunity and fulfillment! NEW!!! FREE SHED THE SHAME PROTOCOL → Get it HERE!

10/11/2023
In this episode, Jenny discusses how the brain tries to protect us by coming up with 'reasons' we feel we can't succeed or achieve their goals, but those 'reasons' are just negative thoughts and limiting beliefs that stem from past experiences, voices we've internalized, and fears around change or potential failure. Jenny helps us understand why negative thoughts exist so we can shift our perspectives, build belief in ourselves, and develop the motivation to achieve our dreams despite challenges from within or without. By using these tangible strategies, we can break free from limitations and self-sabotage, and move on with our self-love journey! NEW!!! FREE SHED THE SHAME PROTOCOL → Get it HERE!

Ditch The Guilt, Embrace Your Dreams: Q’s To Help You Escape Expectations & Take Action For True Happiness

5/24/2023
There's a pretty standard list of boxes that society pushes us to check off in order to look like we're passing as happy and successful; you have a job, you have a family, you have a house...ta da! You're happy and successful, right? ...Maybe not quite. While those things are great to have, so many of us want more - we KNOW there is more out there for us! Some of us want to check things off our bucket list, some of us want to pursue our hobbies or passions and build them into careers. But we're told that it's selfish to want more for ourselves. "Isn't your home, your family, your current job enough?". Here's a hint: it's OKAY to say NO to that. But it's also okay to say YES and still want more! Life happens quick - so why not make the most out of it? Well, in today's spoken journey, Jenny is here to guide you into the direction away from guilt and into the power of embracing your dreams, while still balancing and building a happy life for yourself and your family.

Redistributing the Mental and Emotional Load: How to Shift Family Dynamics Towards Equality

5/17/2023
We've talked about the delegation of physical house chores before...but what about the mental work load? The society we grew up in has, for a long time, expected women to be the ones to keep the household together both physical chores and mental chores like keeping the kids on schedule, scheduling parties or family plans, appointments, and anything in between. But our society is changing, it is evolving, and it's becoming more and more exhausting and unbalanced between the members of the household. So if you feel like you're the one doing all of the chores - both physical AND mental - it's time to learn how to communicate those feelings in a healthy and composed manner to your family or other household members to make it an even, balanced, and happy playing field for everyone!

The Comfort of Misery: Why We Choose to Stay Stuck and Miserable and How to Prioritize Happiness NOW

4/19/2023
It’s been programmed into us from older generations that life has to be all work, and little or no play until we’re 65 and retired, and too old to do the things we wanted to when we were younger. We’ve been programmed to think that we have to choose one thing and one thing only, even if that thing makes us miserable! If we’re miserable, we’re supposed to push through it until we essentially can’t anymore…and then we see our health declining and our emotional well being deteriorating, and we get sick mentally and physically. Well today, Jenny tells us that generational curse is breakable, and that it’s OKAY to break through that curse. It’s time to do what’s BEST FOR YOU.
