Be You Podcast

After a previous episode about clear communication, it has popped up in so many amazing and inspiring conversations that many of us feel uncomfortable saying no. But I am here to tell you that we have to get better. As women, it is so common for us to say yes when we really want to say no and I have been down that road many times.  Throughout my journey, I have become much better about saying no a...

I have always known I would be sharing an episode about mom guilt. Mom guilt is something every mom feels. Some feel it more strongly than others, but we all have these sometimes overwhelming feelings of guilt as parents. Why? Well, it may come as a surprise to you, but we are doing this to ourselves. Mom guilt is one of the biggest struggles and fears we have as women. This episode is for the ave...

"I hate confrontation" is something I hear so often. But what I notice is the blurred lines between confrontation and clear communication . They aren't the same thing but oftentimes we feel anxious about them both. What can we do to make these seemingly confrontational conversations easier? I think the key will surprise you. In today's episode, we are ditching the line "I hate confrontation," and...

If Judgey McJudgerson and Judge Judy had a baby, that would have been me. The old me was constantly criticizing others but on this journey, I have found that my judgment was actually a reflection of myself. I still have a long way to go, but I don't find myself judging others nearly as often as before. But when I do, I can catch myself and figure out why I am being judgmental. This is something we...

Sadness and suffering are often used synonymously. They're the same thing, right? No, they're not. I am approaching this darker topic today because a recent Instagram poll hit a nerve. We all feel pain and sadness. And yes, we all suffer. But we choose to suffer. Sounds harsh, I know. I've been there often. So often in fact, that suffering became my identity. I share this odd phenomenon with you i...

Here at the Be You Podcast, we don't shy away from the hot button topics. We've discussed many things that have so much to unpack - money, sex, trauma to name a few. But we haven't talked about a big one yet. Food. Our relationship with food can be healthy or toxic. What are we eating? Why are we eating it? There's shame, blame, hiding, conforming, rebellion, and so many side effects to our eating...

Do you have what it takes to be successful? After the last episode, you may have discovered that you have the three success ingredients! That's amazing! But now what? Well, you need to show up. Today's unexpected follow-up episode is exactly how I wanted this journey to be. Your feedback, comments, and questions inspired me to expand on this topic of success and dive deeper into what a successful...

Don't you wish you could just snap your fingers and be successful? Don't you wish you could just magically make everyone win? Success is great, but it's not always easy. We talk about success a lot and truthfully, it is very diluted and misunderstood. Over the years, I have wondered why some people are successful and others aren't. Through experience, I have found that investing my time and energy...

Ladies, we are breaking down some walls today and discussing a topic that we all shy away from: pleasure. We block our own pleasures and desires. We say no when we want to say yes or say yes when we want to say no. We are not always putting ourselves first. This is a topic that we hide from, judge others for, and feel shame, and admittedly, this is a part of my life that I have also ignored. That'...

What do others think about you? What if they are judging your appearance or decisions? Better yet, what if they aren't? We tell ourselves three major lies when it comes to the opinions of others and the worst part is that we are doing this to ourselves.  Welcome to the Be YOU Podcast. I'm your host, Jill Herman, and today we are talking about something that every single person in this world encoun...

Trauma is an inevitable part of the human journey. I'm not just talking about those big, catastrophic, life-altering events. I'm also talking about the Little "t" traumas that teach you how to be you .  Welcome to the Be YOU Podcast, where we stop forcing, competing, and comparing and learn how to uncover the real us so we can celebrate her and BE HER. I am thrilled to have Dr. Jenn Chrisman here...

The little voice. The inner roommate. Negative Nancy. Head Trash. Whatever you call it, we all have it. Whether or not it is dominating our lives, is up to us. Wouldn't it be great if we could just kick this voice to the curb? Of course! Is it that easy? Absolutely not. Most of the time, we don't even know these negative thoughts are in control. In order to get a handle on this head trash, we need...

Self-love and self-care are such a hot topic right now. But it doesn't mean what we've been conditioned to believe. Sure, going out for an occasional pedicure or squeezing a nap into your busy day are definitely things you can do to love yourself. But self-love is all about the stories you tell yourself on a daily basis. What does that voice sound like? Welcome to the Be You Podcast! On this journ...
