Is your relationship with your adult children "less than perfect"? This subject is rarely talked about because it is a sensitive and complicated subject. I am breaking the silence. In this episode I share my self-awareness in the form of attachment, desire for approval, and expectations. I also share how I am coming to acceptance of myself, them and our situation through compassion. This episode is very timely as it is the holiday season. I would love to hear YOUR perspective.

Oh boy! When I realized I was holding others MORE accountable with this question than MYSELF it really hit me like a ton of bricks. "Are my actions aligning with my words?" Actions DO NOT speak louder than words or vice versa. The sweet spot is when actions and words are in alignment. If they are not our self-esteem and self-trust is chipped away at. When they are we are connected to our truth, in flow and progress happens abundantly. That, my friend, is what I call a "self-love win"! Sign up for the retreat here. Find Jenny here and here.
This self-love question to make a habit is ALL about checking in with ourself and holding ourself accountable. "What energy am I putting out?" When we take responsibility for what we can control, which are our thoughts and behaviors, we can be more proactive and intentional about what energy we are putting out into the world. We receive back what we give out. YOU WILL love yourself even more when you grow your own accountability and self-trust. THIS IS how we create the life we desire and deserve. Episodes referenced were # 101 (part 1) and episode # 99. Please find Jenny here and here. Spots are limited for the "Falling In Love with Yourself at the Beach" retreat and HALF are gone.

This episode gets personal. I have an open-hearted discussion about how I have had an adversarial relationship with a very important part of my body for the majority of my life. I had made my hormones and reproductive organs a sort of enemy. I will tell you how I am repairing that relationship and aligning with it for a healthier and happier peri-menopause experience. At the same time, I have had to breakup with my best friend; running. It has been a heartbreak for me and I share my process of grieving, while heading toward acceptance. When we give ourselves permission to listen to our body, give it what it is asking for and grieve the things that aren't the way we want them to be we can be in alignment with our body. Please find Jenny here and here.
Melanie and I met over seven years ago at Christine Hassler's retreat. We had an instant soul connection and bond and have, somewhat, kept in touch over the years. Her self-love story is unique and beautiful and I know so many of you will relate to it. She had always been a go-getter and driven and landed in a successful corporate career. After many years she realized how out of alignment this choice was for her. She re-connected to herself through yoga. That choice opened her up to her truth and purpose. Please find Melanie here and here. Find Jenny here and here.
When was the last time you got "triggered"? How did you react? Did you have a "mess" to clean up after? The truth is we ALL get triggered and WILL always get triggered. It is part of being human.

In this episode, I share my process of how I went to a "lashing out trigger responder" to a "self-loving trigger responder". I give you step by step awareness tools on how to move through your triggers without collateral damage. I also discuss how to release shame after a trigger.

We spend so much of our energy judging, criticizing and trying to FIX our bodies. When we do it breaks down our self-love and self-acceptance and before we know it we can't even love how we look.

This episode is for EVERYONE and I hope you share it. Loving our bodies IS the way to long-term and sustainable health. Background music is "Evenfall (Spa)" by Beyond The Sunset.
