Jenerally Speaking: A Better Relationship With Being Human

🩷What does it mean to live a disposable life? Years ago, a salon client who owned an auction company told me, “You youngins live disposable lives now.” I’ve wondered about that ever since. 🤎Are we simply less attached to things? Or have we become so comfortable replacing what no longer fits that we’ve started doing it with jobs, relationships, memories—and even ourselves? In this episode of Jene...

🩷Have you ever reached the end of the day and wanted no one to need one more thing from you? Maybe you cancel the plans you made, ignore the texts, close the bedroom door, or need an entire day alone just to feel like yourself again. Then the guilt arrives, making you wonder why you have nothing left for the people and parts of life you genuinely love. 🤎But what if nothing is wrong with you? In...

The complicated (and sometimes dysfunctional) relationship with encouragement, advice, coaching, and guidance 🩷Have you ever received encouragement that was meant to help… but somehow made you trust yourself less? “You’re almost there” sounds hopeful. Supportive. Motivating. 🤎But what happens when those words begin to feel like pressure? What happens when encouragement becomes a promise no one c...

Have you ever heard yourself say that? Maybe it’s about a new job. A new chapter. A new dream. A new city. A new version of yourself. On the surface, it sounds practical. Logical, even. But what if that resistance isn’t really about starting over? In this episode, I press record in the middle of a very real emotional moment and follow a question that’s been tugging at me: Why does the idea of begi...

When we hear the word success, we usually think about the big milestones. The dream job. The promotion. The business. The accomplishment. But what if success isn't just one destination? What if it's every challenge you've overcome and every season you've survived along the way? If that's true, then why do so many capable people eventually find themselves asking the same question: "Is this it?" In...

When’s the last time you made a decision from your body? Not your thoughts. Not the what-ifs. Not the ping ping ping of seventeen mental tabs running at once. Your body. Because here’s what I’ve figured out… we don’t actually struggle with knowing when to push. Pushing is automatic. It’s the pause that gets foggy. And most of the time what we’re calling a pause is actually a paralyze. There’s a di...

Something WILD happened mid-sentence during this recording! I’m still in AWE, that after decades of spinning on this LIFE QUESTION, I mayyyy have finally peeled back the curtains to this CHOICE POINT in life, that we so often find ourselves coming back to! When to know if we should keep working at [it] or if we should let [it] go? When to MAKE happen or LET it happen… Relationships. Business. Fina...

From ancient teachings to mentors to books to modern technology, humans have always craved to know their “right path”. How will I know when I’m there? What will it feel like? Will the signs be signing? What IF the answers, to all your “right paths”, are found in the one place you haven’t questioned? Good morning, come in. I’ve been waiting a long time for this walk together… 🩷

Would you like your “Hustle Culture” hot, iced, carbonated, or in a pill? Ever notice the rise of caffeinated products being parallel to the rise of wrapping our identities in the hustle culture? From a woman who LOVES working, LOVES entrepreneurship opportunities, and LOVES the choices that financial freedom can offer us… I think it’s time we get straight with our dysfunctional relationship with...

They say every other generation (to the same sex parent) is similar, mostly bc we’re often keeping the cool shit and rebelling from the not so cool shit. What IF we paused for a moment to think about the ingredients, that we show up with, in this world? Do you find that you are YOU mostly bc of the same sex parent, grandparents, and relatives, such as aunts and uncles? What did you keep? What did...

🩷We use the word forever when something matters so deeply that we cannot imagine life without it. Forever love. Forever friendship. Forever family. Forever home. Forever plans. But life changes us. People change. Relationships change. Dreams change. Sometimes something ends. Sometimes it remains—but no longer looks the way it once did. 🤎In this episode of Jenerally Speaking, we explore what happ...

Before I was your partner, your parent, your child, your employee, your friend, your caretaker, or the person everyone counted on… 🩷 I was mine. But somewhere between loving people, meeting expectations, carrying responsibilities, and becoming who the world needed me to be, it can become difficult to remember the person who existed before all those roles. In this episode of Jenerally Speaking, we...

What if the next chapter of your life isn’t asking you to become more productive, more impressive, or more certain? What if it’s asking you to become more alive? So many of us inherit ways of coping, disconnecting, shrinking, and moving through life without ever fully inhabiting it. We learn how to survive. We learn how to function. We learn how to keep going. But somewhere along the way, we may f...

Have you ever reached the end of another full day, laid your head on the pillow, and quietly wondered: Is this really all life is? Wake up. Work. Handle the responsibilities. Pay the bills. Keep moving. Repeat. We’re surrounded by advice, answers, productivity, and information… but somehow, many of us still feel like we were handed a life without a manual and told to figure it out alone. In the fi...
