You’ll walk away with a deeper appreciation for the order in the ch...

In this episode of Soul Stories with Jill , I take you back to a Omega Institute conference I attended in the early 2000s, in Miami, where I had a chance encounter with the one and only Ram Dass.

In this heartfelt episode, I share the story of a sacred turning point between me and my dad. One that took place 25 years ago in the heart of the Grand Canyon. He was in Phoenix for work and asked if I’d like to meet him out there, which had never happened prior to this. We drove to the Grand Canyon & had dinner overlooking the rim (not sure which one) that night, and he casually asked, “Want...

In one of the most moving episodes I’ve ever recorded, I sit down with one of my clients/friend who was home on hospice care, facing the final chapter of his life. What began as a private conversation turned into a powerful desire on his part to share his testimony publicly because, in his words, “People need to hear this while they still have time.” With deep vulnerability and clarity, he shares...

In today’s episode, we’re exploring one of life’s deepest truths: that everything we do, say, or feel is rooted in either fear or love. From the way we show up in relationships, to the way we speak to ourselves, to the choices we make each day—at the core, it all traces back to one of these two forces. We’ll talk about how fear often disguises itself as anger, control, or judgment, while love show...

In this solo episode, I’m diving into confessions—from podcasting choices to personal challenges. I share the story of how I recorded a full episode, only to realize (while drifting off to sleep) that it felt too similar to one I had done before.

They first met in their early adult years—he was her uncle’s best friend, always around but never more than an acquaintance. Life took them in different directions, and the years passed.

The mind is incredibly powerful. It’s astonishing to think that we use only a small fraction of our brain’s capacity—some say less than 10%. The thoughts we entertain shape our reality, meaning that by shifting our mindset, we can transform our lives. I’m no expert, but I’ve learned that what we consume—through television, music, social media, and the conversations we engage in—deeply influences u...
