The Role Model You Never Had with Jess Tiana

If you’ve been doing all the right things and still not seeing results, this episode is going to explain why. We’re busting the biggest nutrition and training myths - cardio for fat loss, greens powders and supplements, meal timing, cycle syncing, and the idea that getting smaller is the goal. Including what a 2025 study from McMaster University actually found about cycle syncing and muscle buildi...

Self abandonment in relationships (whether romantic, with friends or with family) doesn't happen all at once. It happens in small moments - one compromise at a time - until one day you don't recognise yourself anymore. In this episode I share what it actually looked like when I lost myself, why we do it (and it's not weakness), and the specific steps I took to come back to myself th...

Everyone tells you to reinvent yourself. Nobody tells you what happens when the version of you you've built your entire life around falls apart. In this episode, I share an origin story I don't talk about often - losing my friend unexpectedly, bringing four pages of symptoms to my doctor because I knew something wasn't right, and watching every plan I had for my future disappear whe...

Everyone tells you to just move on. Nobody tells you how. In this episode I share the exact process I used to detach from toxic relationships - including the tool that will make you laugh but actually works. The obsessive checking, the not blocking, the posting so they'd see your life - I've been there. And I built a system to get out of the loop. If you've ever found yourself stuck...

If you've ever laid awake at night replaying conversations with someone who hurt you, convinced yourself it was somehow your fault, or felt like your brain just wouldn't turn off - this episode is for you. I'm sharing what obsessive thoughts actually felt like for me after betrayal and gaslighting, why your brain does this, and the thought containment framework I developed to get th...

You've tried everything. The programs, the plans, the cutting back. And something keeps not changing. In this episode I break down the real reason most women plateau and why working harder is often the exact wrong answer. We cover metabolic adaptation, what your body actually needs to change, the difference between fat loss and weight loss, and why having the right support changes everything....

I used to have severe social anxiety. I couldn’t get on a city bus alone. Then after leaving an abusive relationship, the panic attacks came back harder than ever. In this episode I share what actually worked - including the five step framework I developed from my own experience and years of crisis work. The Calm Code. If anxiety has ever derailed your whole day - this one is for you. Apply for 1:...

You keep repeating patterns you fully understand. You know why you do what you do and you still can't stop. This is not a willpower problem. This is your nervous system. In this episode I break down what your nervous system actually is, the four survival responses that run automatically beneath your awareness, the window of tolerance and what happens when you're pushed outside it, and wh...

This episode is the conversation nobody is having openly. I'm talking about what happens when you learn to use your body for validation. The posting for an ex hoping he sees what he lost. The checking story views for certain names. The inability to say no when your body has been treated as public property your whole life. This is about reclaiming your body as yours. Learning that no is a comp...

This episode is personal. I'm talking about body image - where mine came from, what it actually looked like day to day, and how I healed it. Not through toxic positivity or learning to love myself overnight. Through understanding my body, shifting from appearance to performance, and finally choosing myself. I also address something nobody wants to say out loud - wanting to change your body is...

Your gut and your nervous system are more connected than you think. In this episode we're going deep on the gut-brain axis - what it actually is, why chronic stress destroys your digestion, and why the bloating, IBS symptoms, and food sensitivities you've been dealing with might not be what you think they are. We also talk about why your supplements probably aren't working and what...

This is the episode you asked for. In this episode I'm sharing the full story of how I healed my relationship with food - from a little girl hiding food in her room, to restriction, to the binge and restrict cycle, to finally understanding what my body actually needed and feeling free around food. I'm walking you through exactly what I did. Not a "love yourself and eat intuitively&q...

Last episode I talked about the friends who let your fire die. This time I want to talk about the ones who kept it alive. I'm sharing two friendships that taught me what nervous system safe connection actually feels like - and why so many of us don't even know what we're looking for because we've never experienced it. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to truly fee...

I blocked my entire friend group in one day. In this episode I'm sharing the full story - why I did it, what led me there, and the framework I now use to evaluate every relationship in my life so I can build something that's actually aligned with who I'm becoming. If you've ever stayed in a friendship long past the point you should have left because you were scared of being alo...

You know that feeling when someone asks you for something and every part of you wants to say no - but yes comes out anyway? That's not a character flaw. That's a nervous system that learned your needs don't matter. In this episode I'm sharing the real reason saying no feels impossible - and giving you my 3 C's framework to finally start setting boundaries without the guilt...
