She Rises Through It: Self-Leadership, Becoming & Growth for Women in Transition

This week’s episode is short, soulful, and full of gratitude.  We’re halfway through the week, and before the rush continues, I want to remind you of something simple but powerful, you’re doing an incredible job. In this episode, I share a quick midweek check-in and a few reflections on gratitude, growth, and the beauty of becoming. Life can shift in an instant, and sometimes the greatest gift is...

Two words can shift everything you believe about yourself, your choices, and what’s possible. In this episode, I share the messy, beautiful truth about starting over, leaning into gratitude, and choosing to see change as an invitation instead of a setback. You’ll hear how I’ve reframed doubt, found alignment in my next steps, and built practices that keep me grounded while stepping into new possib...

In today’s episode of She Rises Through It , I’m sharing my messy middle, navigating self-doubt, teaching my very first yoga class, an energy-shifting moment in the red chakra room, and the deep reminder of why retreating from everyday life matters. Retreating isn’t running away. It’s pressing pause, resetting your nervous system, and returning to your life with more clarity, aliveness, and alignm...

Life feels busy, messy, and beautiful and in this week’s episode, I’m sharing updates straight from the heart: my first free yoga class tonight in North Branch, and the upcoming Minnesota Women’s Weekend Retreat this October. Plus, I’ll close with a simple Hawaiian prayer of compassion you can carry into your day. ✨ Free Yoga Class | Tonight, Sept 18 @ 6:30 PM Yoga Branch, North Branch, MN Restor...

Feeling overloaded by the mental noise?  Same.  In today’s episode, I share a real-time look at what happens when the chatter ramps up, how I’m noticing it, what’s underneath it, and the simple rituals I’m using to come back to myself: journaling, legs-up-the-wall, gentle morning movement, and the power of pressing pause. If you’re craving permission to slow down, reconnect, and be held in communi...

This week’s episode is short + sweet, but full of truth. I talk about why I literally handed my phone over, how presence changes everything, and what it means to start over when life feels out of alignment. And BIG NEWS....I just launched my very first October retreat!! 🌿 A sacred weekend in Minnesota created for rest, reflection, and renewal.  Spots are limited, and you’re hearing it here first....

What happens when your voice feels stuck, your throat tightens, and the truth you’ve been holding back starts to rise like waves? In today’s episode, I share a raw moment of working through my throat chakra, the messy middle of silence, fear of “performing perfectly,” and a meditation that revealed a turquoise wave of truth I could no longer ignore. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about what hap...

This week, I’m opening up about the unexpected hospital stays that shift everything, the unknowns that test your faith, and what it means to advocate for yourself and the ones you love. We’re diving deep into the throat chakra (Vishuddha) — the power of speaking up, finding your voice, and trusting that it carries weight even when the path feels uncertain. If you’ve ever felt lost in the unknown o...

Last week, we sat with deep forgiveness, the kind that feels like a long-held breath finally released. I shared about forgiving my dad after 15 years and embracing honest conversations with my mom. This week, I’m taking that theme further, into legacy, authenticity, and breaking out of the boxes others try to put us in. This is the second time I recorded Episode 13, because the first one… didn’t f...

Recorded on my iPad, deep in the messy middle because the becoming doesn’t wait for perfect. This episode is a raw reflection on what it means to forgive, to release, and to finally start living. I open up about navigating generational trauma, my complicated relationship with my father, and how my nervous system is finally asking me to slow down, not to fix what’s broken, but to come back home to...

This episode wasn’t planned and maybe that’s the beauty of it. I showed up tired, unfiltered, and fully in the moment, speaking straight from my heart. From imposter syndrome and “What the hell am I doing?” moments to celebrating my son’s PT graduation and redefining what success really looks like… this is the real, raw becoming. If you’re navigating doubt, burnout, or rebuilding yourself from the...

In this milestone episode, I’m not showing up because everything feels polished or perfectly timed. I’m showing up because my voice still matters, even in the middle of the chaos. This episode is for the woman who’s already made the leap. Who’s navigating motherhood, healing, scheduling doctors’ appointments, reworking business timelines, and still trying to trust herself through it all. We talk a...

This one’s short and honest. I’m recording from a family cabin trip, in the middle of real life, kids, doctor appointments, and all the chaos because I still want to show up. This is your reminder: you don’t have to wait for perfect conditions to grow. Even in the messy middle, you can come back to yourself. Even in the noise, you can take one intentional minute. In this quick check-in episode, we...

We’re getting honest in this one. This episode is all about what it actually takes to grow, not just when everything is calm and aesthetic, but in the real-life moments when doubt, distraction, and old patterns try to pull you back. We’re talking belief. We’re talking resistance. We’re talking about the messy middle and how to move through it with intention. Because let’s be clear: you don’t just...

This episode is one of those I needed to speak more than script. Over the weekend, a literal storm rolled through, thunder shaking the walls, lightning lighting up the sky and I found myself in the basement, rocking my baby while my boys slept and I stayed wide awake. I felt fear rise in my body, not just from the storm, but from something deeper. A part of me I hadn’t comforted in a long time. Da...

What happens when you’re healing, building, mothering, and dreaming all at once? You don’t get to pause life to do the inner work. You do it while holding everything else. It’s messy. It’s emotional. It’s beautiful. And you’re not alone in it. In this episode, I’m opening up about how control became my safety net, especially through college, early career, and motherhood and how I’m learning to sof...

This episode feels like a journal entry I wasn’t sure I’d ever share. It’s me opening up about the girl I used to be. The one who wanted to be liked. The one who tried to be everything for everyone. The one who never felt fully seen or fully enough. I talk about the stories that shaped me, from trying to fit in as a little girl, to doubting my worth in college, to not feeling lovable in my own mar...

This episode is the heart of it all. I’m opening up about the real story behind The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective. The part that was shaped through postpartum, anxiety, hospital visits, burnout, and the quiet unraveling I carried alone for too long. It’s the story of what led me to finally say: enough. In this episode, I share: 🌱 What it felt like to lose myself while trying to hold everything togeth...

This episode isn’t about a dramatic breakthrough, it’s about what comes after. The pause. The “what now” when real life keeps moving but you’re trying to find your footing. I share the daily rituals that help me show up, like journaling without judgment, dancing barefoot, and simply being present with my kids. They’re small deposits, not solutions. But if you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsur...

I didn’t plan for this leap. I didn’t even know I needed one, until everything cracked open. In this episode, I share the unraveling that started before I ever landed in Costa Rica — the exhaustion, the anxiety, the overstimulation, and the moment I finally admitted I was no longer okay. I walk you through the breathwork experience that changed my life, the realization that I had been giving my po...

This wasn’t just a trip I said yes to,  it was something my heart knew I had to do. In this first episode, I’m showing up raw and real from Costa Rica — sharing how I got here, the panic I felt, and the way this journey cracked me wide open. This isn’t about pretending life is perfect. It’s about being honest in the middle of it, the mental game, the emotional stretch, and the quiet moments where...
