Be You Podcast (Jill Herman)

Many times in relationships, points of contention and arguments will repeat over and over and over again, because there is something deeper that wants to be healed and resolved in one or both of the participants. 

Jill uses a real life and real time example from her own relationship to illustrate what happens when we recognize ourselves going into fight, flight, freeze or fawn (aka “appease”) and shows the listener exactly what to do to get back in the body and back to truth, so the pattern can be broken.

Show Notes:

[2:23] - This can show up as everyday stuff.

[4:02] - When we get “back online”, we get a message. We see the guidance and learn the lesson.

[5:34] - Jill shares the reason she recently became mad at her husband and what lesson she had to learn through it.

[8:04] - One thing that played into her nervous system is something that didn’t actually have anything to do with her relationship with her husband.

[10:33] - Jill’s brain was overwhelmed with information and it was too much for her.

[11:42] - Have you ever had a bigger reaction than was actually appropriate?

[15:05] - We have reactions sometimes that are “key phrases”.

[18:51] - A key phrase is a hint to something that is underneath.

[20:07] - We can move through these things through sound, breath, and movement.

[21:32] - What is it that pokes through?

[23:10] - Jill was reminded of what it felt like in her childhood to experience something that triggered her big reactions to this situation.

[25:49] - A part of her was trying to self sabotage to protect her.

[30:00] - What happened in this experience wasn’t an accident. It was a culmination of things to provide answers to Jill.

[32:17] - When you feel like you are going offline, it is okay. There is always an answer deep inside you.

[34:30] - The problem isn’t the argument. The problem is not taking the time to do the work.

I know there was something in this episode that you were meant to hear. Let me know what that is. Thank you for being here today with me on our healing journeys.

Well here we are on episode 127 and I’m finally sharing more about network marketing and my experiences. Many thought I would start with this episode! As I have shared in past discussions, I left my career in nursing for network marketing and have learned so much along the way. I think back to the person I was when I began and I wish I knew then what I know now. 

In today’s episode, I share what I know. I can pass these experiences on to those who are skeptical, those who are learning more about their own career, and to those who are curious about different ways to grow themselves. Network marketing isn’t for everyone, especially if they don’t have those three success ingredients we’ve discussed before. But my hope is that with this episode, you gain a better understanding of the myths, truths, and secrets of network marketing.

Join Jill in this final episode of 2024 of Be YOU as she invites you into a truly reflective space, guiding you through wrapping up this year with heart and intention and moving into the new year. As the holiday season comes to a close, listen as Jill highlights why it's important to engage in self-care, setting boundaries, and honoring the lessons that you may have learned over this year.

Instead of rushing immediately into New Year's resolutions as many of us tend to do, Jill encourages listeners to pause and release whatever it is that no longer serves you, express gratitude for lessons learned, and of course celebrate the wins and positive memories that so many of us tend to overlook.

Jill focuses on reflection and release – two incredibly important steps to help ensure a clean slate going into the new year. She welcomes listeners to a calming ritual which guides you to pause, breathe, and reflect on your own personal experiences over this last year, and she invites everyone to take a moment and reflect, to ground, and to clear space for what's to come in 2025.

Tune in as Jill offers a combination of practical steps and suggestions, including but not limited to how to go through old photos and reflect on the year and also how to categorize experiences into lessons learned, things that need to be let go of, and memories to anchor onto!

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. 

Today we are talking about something that every single person in this world encounters and struggles with: the need for approval. It is natural, but we can’t live our lives based on what we think others are thinking. So listen on for some experiences I have had in my life and some actionable steps you can take in your life to be you.

Show Notes:

• [1:58] - It is very common to struggle with the need for approval but that most women feel like they are the only ones experiencing it.

• [2:47] - Jill gives an example of something that she has experienced in her life of getting feedback from people who don’t even know they’re giving you feedback. 

• [5:57] - She realized that those women were really saying that they wished they didn’t care what others thought.

• [8:56] - A lot of women fear that it won’t look good or that their partner won’t approve of it.

• [10:18] - What your partner is attracted to is you being happy and comfortable in your own skin.

• [11:42] - There is likely another area of your life where the opinions of others matters to you.

• [12:08] - There are three lies that we tell ourselves. Jill discusses these three lies in her free ebook Be You and Break Free From the Opinions of Others. 

• [12:41] - The first lie we tell ourselves is that others’ opinions matter.

• [13:06] - The second lie is that their opinion matters more than our own. And the third lie is that others actually care.

• [14:33] - Get a sticky note out and write down the names of the people whose opinion should matter to you. Be careful with this task. 

• [15:45] - Jill also recommends breaking the list into categories. Do you value someone’s opinion about certain decisions but not others?

• [16:41] - Be sure not to put someone on this list due to obligation or guilt.

• [20:07] - We also tell ourselves that others actually pay attention to what you are doing. Everyone is wrapped up in their own lives that we know nothing about.

• [21:10] - What if people are noticing you because they are seeing the best in you?

• [24:26] - When you quiet your mind and tune into your heart, you know the answer, and you know the decision you should make.

• [25:13] - You don’t have to tell the people you put on your sticky note, but what if you did?

• [26:11] - Every single person out there, no matter how successful, is a work in progress. They are not better than you.

• [30:21] - When you acknowledge the freedom and power in another woman, you are giving permission to yourself to be you.

Many of us are drawn to drama, connect through gossip, repeatedly tell tragic stories, mistake trauma bonding for chemistry and expect a catastrophe at any moment.

Ever wonder why?

Is this you and you're curious if you can change? 

This used to be Jill. 

Here's what she learned and how these behaviors are in her past. 

Jill is a certified trauma informed life coach with training in somatics. When she experienced the absence of chaos (everything she prayed for) and for the first time no longer had a desire to convert that void to pain and drama, she knew the somatic work she had done with her coaches "worked". Two years of releasing and transmuting stuck and hidden trauma brought an entirely new way of living.

For her entire life she had no idea that her pattern of thriving on adrenaline, drama, conflict and chaos was a result of events in her early childhood and teen years. She had no idea that although she was so positive, driven, outgoing and kind-hearted she was coming across as dramatic, stressed, a gossip, and seeking chaos. 

In this episode, Jill explains where the patterns, behaviors, and stories come from in people who seek and prefer drama and chaos. She shares her journey from hypervigilance and catastrophizing to peace and groundedness and invites the listener to get curious about their own.

Allow Jill to gift you with a crowd favorite!

Her annual end of year ritual that will help you 

1) tie up the loose ends of 2023

2) remember the wins and anchor them in

3) cut ties with the perceived losses or all you didn't check off your list

4) walk into the new year without attachment to the previous year or pressure to make the new year better than the last

All while bringing gratitude and appreciation as magnets for what you'll call in.

This will be like walking into a brand new home with clean white socks instead of falling through the roof, covered in dust and dirt. YOU WILL LOVE IT.

Show Notes:

[1:40] - Jill loves to close out the year with heart and intention so you can be in a space to call in the new year.

[3:01] - Take and tweak Jill’s ritual for the end of the year and make it all for you.

[3:37] - The first step is to look through every single photo on your phone that you took in 2023. Every single one.

[5:13] - Set up a space and take cleansing breaths.

[8:03] - Observe how your body feels.

[9:26] - Now go back and look through the photos on your phone. You will see them differently. Write down what looks significant to you.

[10:09] - Jill reads through the list she made of all the things that were significant to her in 2023.

[13:45] - Categorize your list by “Learned,” “Let Go,” and “Anchor.”

[14:47] - Journal about each category.

[15:54] - The next step is to either burn this list or rip it up.

[18:06] - Picture your list and let your body move.

[19:52] - If you selected words for the year, think back and notice when in your year they showed up.

[23:18] - No matter what storm you are in, we can close this year and call a new one in.

[24:15] - Painful lessons are not punishment. Give yourself grace and lean into what you’re feeling.

When you look out at others, where does it come from? 

Does it come from safety and truth? 

Or are you needing and wanting to confirm some sort of story you’ve made up?

In this episode, Jill explores the reasons behind our need to see other people and make up a story about their successes and compare them to our own insecurities.

Show Notes:

[9:58] - Some of us are in bondage to these made-up stories.

[11:47] - Why is our knee-jerk reaction to focus on the things that other people seem to be doing better, but when we look at ourselves, we focus on the negative?

[13:44] - We play a comparison game because we focus outward.

[16:24] - When you’re focusing externally to find meaning, that’s the pitfall.

[17:49] - Why are you looking outward?

[21:13] - If your “come from” is safety and security, you won’t feel threatened.

[22:58] - There are things you simply won’t know about someone else by looking at them.

[26:06] - We find ourselves looking at other people and we’re thinking that they’re doing things better because deep down we still feel like we are not enough.

[28:29] - If it is coming through the lens of love, we won’t make anything up or add anything to the picture. We won’t make it mean anything about ourselves.

[31:02] - Everybody does this. But is it all-consuming?

[33:03] - Consider who you are looking at and how you are making a made-up story mean something about your own life.

[34:32] - It all boils down to outsourcing our worth.

[36:30] - We avoid being still and quiet to face insecurities. It's easier to look outward.

Today’s guest reminds us that “None of us are perfect and we are perfect in that,” in this raw and inspiring episode. I found Kelli Tennant by listening to her Top 50 podcast The Kelli Show and absolutely falling in love with it. I have loved everything about her and her energy and how she is showing up on this planet. The coolest thing is that I reached out to her on Instagram as someone she doesn’t know and she immediately opened her arms and said yes. I am so thrilled and honored to have her here.

Kelli Tennant is a great example of someone who shows up as herself, that might make us uncomfortable, but always makes us “check ourselves.” She is successful, confident, and triggering and I’m sure that there you might be turned off by your own opinion, fear, and judgement. But remember that triggers are a gift.

Kelli is a former pro athlete who found herself reporting for ESPN. Now she is a leader, coach, podcaster, and CEO of Soulfire Productions, all of which have nothing to do with her former athletic career. Why did she leave it all behind? In today’s episode, Kelli lays it all out on the table. Why she made drastic changes in her life to save herself and how she lives her life as her true self today. 

I also have an exciting announcement! I am partnering with Supercast which will give you more access to me and even more content that you won’t find here on the podcast. It’s so much of a deeper dive into important topics crucial to the growth and journeys we are all on together. It is also an opportunity to learn more about how I was able to go from being broke to owning a multi-million dollar business. You deserve to do this work. As hard as it is, this work will get you one step closer to excavating the real you and finding your joy and abundance. To join Jill's private feed click here: https://beyou.supercast.tech

In this quick episode, I’m shaking things up a bit. I was recently asked to write an article for a magazine about goals and bucket lists. They wanted to know how to achieve these lofty goals, but I wasn’t feeling called to take that approach. Instead, I wrote an article about making yourself the bucket list.

Don’t forget that I am partnering with Supercast for a spin-off channel which will give you more access to me and even more content that you won’t find here on the podcast. It’s so much of a deeper dive into important topics crucial to the growth and journeys we are all on together. It is also an opportunity to learn more about how I was able to go from being broke to owning a multi-million dollar business.

But if you and I avoid talking about or listening to an expert talk about sex and sexuality and feel so uncomfortable we can hardly stand it, that’s an invitation to dig deeper and find out why. This live, in-person interview with Alexa Bowditch, That Sex Chick was interesting, confronting, and absolutely wonderful. While you listen, pay attention to how you feel and always listen to your body. Alexa shares her own journey and how she helps women with sexual expression by design.

Jill is so excited to finally have Kari Azuma on the show! Kari is a certified coach and what she calls an “intuitive nervous system surgeon,” and she joins Jill to discuss what it takes to feel safe and resilient, stressing that it is not about trying to fix yourself but rather acknowledging yourself.

Listen as Kari shares and reflects on her own journey, including the challenges of motherhood that led her to this work. She explains why slowing down, paying attention to what your body is trying to tell you, and creating a relationship with your nervous system are so important to being truly resilient.

She also introduces her upcoming Foundations of Safety course and vision quests, designed to help women reconnect with themselves, so whether you are feeling stuck in old patterns or simply looking for more ease in your life, Jill invites you to listen to this conversation which offers a great perspective on what it really means to create safety in your life!

Join Jill this week on Be YOU as she discusses how motherhood is a journey filled with love, joy, and exhaustion, yet so many moms feel like they’re facing it alone. She opens up about the silent battles of motherhood and how unrealistic social media standards can make that isolation even worse, sharing how these insights helped lead to a major shift in her work and to the creation of a new version of her successful Plot Twist retreat, meant specifically for moms who are tired of carrying their burdens in silence.

Tune in as Jill walks us through the process which participants in the past have experienced, from releasing resentment and mom guilt to learning the power of true rest without guilt, justification, or explanation. She brings up important themes from the retreat, including uncovering hidden emotional blocks, tuning into the wisdom of the body, and embracing the sacred pause. She explains why this isn't just another self-help program but a really supportive space in which moms can finally feel seen, heard, and held. She also has a special surprise to share! Renowned master coach Christine Hassler, a powerhouse in personal growth (and a former mentor to Jill), will be joining the program!

Whether you’re a mom who needs this space and/or you know one who does, this episode is your invitation to embrace a new chapter without the pressure to be perfect!

Show Notes:

Sometimes we say that we give zero f’s, but do we really? It honestly takes a long time to get there, but if you are truly living in alignment and committed to living as your true self, giving zero f’s becomes the norm. 

This episode came from an Instagram post that Jill saw that didn’t serve as an inspiration to live this way, but rather a reminder that she is going in the right direction. Many times we have to peel back so many layers to realize the ah-ha that we’re going the right way, but just know that you aren’t seeing this and feeling this for no reason. This is your mirror. This is right where you need to be going.

Are you ready?

------------------

The Be You podcast is hosted by Jill Herman, a champion of women’s empowerment, personal development, women helping women, and being yourself without apology.

Being a boss no longer just refers to achievement in the workplace. Personal development and prioritizing being yourself are key ingredients in the women’s empowerment movement. Jill has built a community of women helping women so that each one can reach their full potential as the badass bosses they are.

Listen in to Jill this week as she discusses what it means to truly support mothers, not just with fleeting moments of self-care but in a way that actually changes their well-being. She shares how, while on a family trip to Orlando with her young grandson, she found herself observing the often-unseen weight that so many mothers carry. While at the resort, Jill reflects on how she saw an all-too-familiar scene: mothers managing the chaos of young children while some fathers remained on the sidelines. It sparked a reflection on her own past, on the exhaustion, guilt, and expectations that so many moms have to deal with.

Jill opens up about her own childhood, the absence of family vacations, and how this trip with her grandson brought unexpected healing. She also shares her thoughts on what real support for moms looks like and introduces her upcoming program, Plot Twist: OnlyMoms Edition, which isn’t about parenting tips or quick-fix advice but rather about creating a space where mothers can be vulnerable, rewrite their own stories, and prioritize themselves without guilt. Because as Jill has learned, a child’s success isn’t just about schedules and structure; it starts with a mother who feels fulfilled, seen, and happy.

If you have ever felt the weight of motherhood and/or wondered what it would feel like to truly set it down, then you will want to tune in this week because this episode is definitely for you! Also, don’t forget that Plot Twist: OnlyMoms Edition is coming soon! Enroll now at Jill’s website!

What is something you are feeling a nudge about? Sometimes we get these ideas, thoughts, and feelings about doing something but we hold ourselves back from doing it. This is usually out of fear and it is totally understandable. Risks can be hard to take but I’m here to tell you that we all take risks in every decision we make. So knowing that what is that one thing that you always think about? The thing that you want to do but are afraid to move forward with?

In this quick episode, I give you actionable steps to take to help you hone in on this nudge you have and find out why you haven’t walked towards it. I hope this episode inspires you to start investing your energy into this desire you have or at least to think about why you are holding yourself back. Because at the end of the day, it is okay to not be ready. But you have to be willing to let it go.

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 to know what it is, how it got there, and how to flip it around. In this episode of Be You, we’ll do just that. After learning about what head trash is and how it can manifest itself in your life, I’ll also give you three takeaways that will have a positive impact on how you feel and how you show up in life. 

It isn’t another affirmation. It isn’t a one-day homework assignment that will fix it all. It is a journey. Your unique journey to being you.

Recently, I made a seemingly odd decision. It was inconvenient timing to make such a big decision, but I felt so confident that it was something I needed to do. This was a Full Body YES moment and I listened. In this episode, I share a personal experience that demonstrates the power of following these full body yesses even when they don’t make sense. Oftentimes we say yes to many different things before we even ask ourselves, so in this episode we also discuss how to check in with your body and mind before giving a confident answer. Because if it isn’t a full body yes, it is a NO.

Join Jill for this heartfelt episode as she discusses the challenging energy that many are feeling post-election, offering guidance on getting through this dense, fog-like atmosphere. She highlights the importance of returning “home” to ourselves - reconnecting with compassion, love, and the truth that lies beyond opinions and judgments.

Reflecting on the nature of compassion, she reminds us that we don’t need to understand someone else’s experience fully to offer empathy; the simple act of compassion can dissolve the barriers that keep us divided. Judgment may divide, but compassion and love have the power to heal and transform.

As a reminder, Jill also discusses a unique experience that she is hosting very soon on November 14th, a light-hearted yet powerful “Grinch” event designed to help listeners tackle the holidays (or any season of life) without feeling overwhelmed. This FREE live workshop promises grounding practices to help reconnect to our breath, regulate our nervous systems, and face life’s challenges with calm resilience!

Show Notes:

[1:27] - This episode launches on 11/11, arriving amid a dense, fog-like global energy.
[2:25] - Jill urges listeners to lead with compassion, recognizing others’ perspectives shaped by unique experiences.
[3:57] - Compassion, not judgment, is essential for healing and meaningful change in our lives.
[5:06] - No matter our post-election feelings, love and compassion can bring unity and healing.
[6:02] - Jill encourages the community to embrace differing views, united as pieces of a larger mosaic.
[7:10] - Jill's upcoming FREE live workshop offers a restorative hour for grounding, breathwork, and inner peace.

Jill’s chickens have taught her more than she ever could have expected about how she shows up as a mother. You won’t believe the lesson they taught her this time. Prepare to laugh and marvel at their wisdom.

Show Notes:

[3:02] - When are people, situations, events, maybe even animals, conspiring against you but for you, like in your favor?

[4:30] - Jill’s chickens were named by her grandson. She explains a recent situation regarding Elowen.

[6:04] - Something she learned is that when another chicken is injured, other chickens will try to kill it.

[7:44] - Jill’s autopilot is to feel guilty. She felt a lot of guilt over her dog attacking the chicken.

[11:03] - Something weird started happening with the chickens’ behavior.

[13:46] - Jill shares the experience of finding one of her chickens.

[17:11] - Have you ever cried about something and could tell it was because of something more?

When her successful 14 yr radio career came to an abrupt end, Sally Wallace accepted that this was the end of her lifelong passion with the mic. In fact, at the time, she felt like it was the end of everything. Years of dedicating time, energy, and love into a career that was over in a brief sentence. 

What was she to do now? 

What could she do? 

Wait a minute… doesn’t “everything happen for a reason”?? After years of struggling with fertility was this the sign she needed? 

Eventually she became a mum at 40 via IVF/ICSI and changed her career completely by stepping into the automotive industry… and yet she couldn’t shift her passion for conversation and bought a microphone, with the intent of starting a podcast. 

Consumed with self-doubt and fear, she was holding back on launching the podcast she was dreaming of and hid the mic in a cupboard. Having never seen a psychic before and always being very skeptical, she was compelled to go. The signs were all there and she sat with a lady who told her there was a microphone at home and she needed to use it! She was told she was here to help people, laugh and cry with them, tell stories and inspire. 

“Adventures of a Geriatric Mum” podcast was born the next day. Sally’s podcast was initially to break down the taboo’s surrounding fertility, but it has become so much more. A place to hear incredible stories of women, women helping women, professionals who can help in all areas of life, from fertility to menopause. A place to laugh out loud, and have a cry in the car. 

Sally is honest, open, and shares stories from her journey so far and invites you to share yours. 

Warning!! This podcast is infectious! Expect smiles, laughs, plenty of potty mouth, and a warm welcome to the good vibe tribe.

This week on Be You, Jill shares the story of her unforgettable birthday weekend, offering heartfelt reflections on love, friendship, and the power of intentionality. Through meaningful connections and thoughtful surprises, she describes how her husband turned what could have been an ordinary celebration into a weekend filled with genuine joy! From surprise dinners with friends to quiet moments of self-reflection, Jill recounts how she embraced each experience with gratitude and a mindset of flow!

Listen in to hear how Jill let go of emotional control, trusted the process, and redefined what birthdays (and, for that matter, relationships) mean to her. Her insights into maintaining authentic friendships, setting boundaries, and valuing quality over quantity serve as powerful lessons for anyone seeking more fulfilling connections in their lives. Jill also opens up about her journey involving letting go of draining relationships and how this decision brought her closer to her true inner circle.

Jill also discusses the relationship between thoughtful gestures and deep emotional meaning, with moments like receiving a hand-carved wooden flute as a gift and reconnecting with a childhood friend. Her reflections on friendship as a balance of giving and receiving, rather than a one-sided relationship of feeling obligated, are especially poignant!

Jill caps off the episode with a personal wellness tip and a life update, touching upon how she quickly rebounded from a recent illness. This inspiring episode of the show is a true testimony of the beauty of intentional living, meaningful relationships, and cherishing the small but profound joys that life has to offer.

Kathryn Ducey is back for a second part to her discussion with Jill in episode 276!

Sometimes our intuition tells us something we don’t want to hear. Sometimes signs lead us to where we are meant to be and we don’t want to listen. I know, because I am there. In a previous episode, I explained how signs were leading me to something that I never considered for myself. Today I dive deeper into that topic because I decided to go for it and I was absolutely terrified.

In today’s episode, we get to talk about the reward of following your intuition. More specifically, we will talk about following your intuition when it leads you to doing something new and that completely tramples your ego. It’s scary. It’s uncomfortable. But when you follow your intuition down a specific path that you know nothing about, you will learn so much about yourself and grow into the goddess you are meant to be. 

Today, I show you the good, the bad, and the ugly. I’m going through it right now and it is not easy. But I know that the end result and the reward waiting for me is all worth it.

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 that we don’t even realize. We’re diving deep into self-work here and food is a huge part of it. That’s why I am thrilled to have Kate Bowser as a guest on today’s episode.

Kate is an Integrated Nutrition Health Coach with a bachelor’s degree in Biology. She helps women live their most balanced life and whole-heartedly believes that health shouldn’t be an all-or-nothing affair. In today’s episode, she teaches us how to listen to our bodies and gives us guidelines instead of rules and labels. Because, truthfully, “who doesn’t want an Oreo?” Listen on for your first step into listening to your body to make the best choices for your unique you.

Jill was a guest on the Marriage, Money & Mayhem podcast and shared everything from her juicy exit from a multi-million dollar MLM business, how she stopped screaming and raging at her children and what it taught her, she explains the difference between mindset work and somatic work and how years of traditional personal development changed her life yet left her with enormous unanswered questions and with wounds that never healed or even showed themselves. Jill's episode on MMM is exploding and as a Be You listener you'll get 48min of her sharing some truthbombs and stories she's never shared before!

We’ve all been on autopilot at different times in our lives and for different reasons. And sometimes, there’s nothing wrong with autopilot for some things. But why are you in autopilot? Is it numbing? How can you tell if it is numbing? 

This episode is heavily inspired by the amazing and beautiful experience of the My Best Year Ever Workshop where I had the opportunity to work with some other amazing women all on the path of growth. In the workshop, we talked about seemingly silly things that could shock us out of a numbing autopilot. As simple and silly as they sound, they work. And inside these little tweaks are opportunities to do deep work on ourselves.

This episode is all about personal expression and, to be honest, it’s kind of a process. First, how do you discover your personal style? As you are discovering your real style, how can you avoid abandoning who you really are? If you already love your style and feel really comfortable with it, how do you find and push the edges? Not only will you learn how to push those boundaries, but you’ll learn three reasons why it’s a great idea. So listen on for some ways to express yourself and have fun doing it.

Tune in to Jill's exploration of the idea of identifying your “doughnut” as she uses her personal journey of temporarily giving up Instagram (her “doughnut”) as an example. Your “doughnut,” as she explains, is something that you are deeply attached to, something that you would be afraid to give up or that you feel you wouldn't be able to. It could be a habit or activity, a substance or a food, or even a digital distraction.

Sharing her experience of temporarily quitting Instagram, she reveals that it was a decision that led her to unexpected lessons about her own habits and emotional needs. She discusses how this break from Instagram exemplified her dependency on social media for dopamine hits and the false sense of connection it provided, making her feel like she had genuine connections and friendships with people whom she really didn't.

She also reflects on how stepping away from Instagram allowed her to recognize the volume of information being consumed on a daily basis and the unnecessary pressures that that placed on her life. Through this process, she discovered newfound peace and clarity, realizing that true connection and fulfillment come from within, rather than through external validation or endless scrolling.

Listen in to gain insights into how identifying and temporarily giving up your own "doughnut" can lead to profound personal growth and lessons about yourself! Jill encourages you to think about what your own “doughnut” might be and how taking a break from it could reveal deeper lessons and benefits you might not have foreseen. Whether it's a food, a habit, or something else, this episode invites you to challenge yourself and embrace the possible change that could result from stepping away from your comfort zone!

Listen in to Be YOU this week as Jill shares a shorter but still incredibly important episode. What happens when no one talks about the real struggles of motherhood, not the cherry-picked Instagram posts or self-deprecating memes but the truths that we are too ashamed to say out loud? That's exactly what Jill is addressing in this episode.

Inspired by a conversation that literally left her breathing easier, Jill reflects on the importance of finding balance between personal growth and lighter moments that make us feel human, even, as she calls it, effervescent. She shares how years of doing the heavy, inner work made her forget what it felt like to simply come up for air like a whale needs to do after feeding, to laugh, to watch bad TV, to be light. That realization shapes this episode on the shorter side in which Jill offers listeners a moment to breathe while naming the weight that so many moms carry.

Via honest reflections and listener submissions, Jill exposes the relentless, contradictory pressures that so many mothers face - from feeding kids the “right” foods to measuring every parenting decision against the long list of expert advice.

It’s not just about raising children but also about getting through the expectations that turn motherhood into a high-stakes performance. Social media leads to comparison traps, the impossible demand to be both present and productive, the quiet fantasies of running away for just a moment of peace – the bitter truth is all here, so whether you are a mom, love a mom, and/or are healing your relationship with your own mom, Jill invites you this week to take a breath and feel less alone in the chaos that not enough people talk about!

Show Notes:

[2:03] - Balancing joy and depth is important; surfacing for air is as vital as diving deep!
[5:32] - Feeling effervescent lately, Jill craves more lightness, fun, and zest on this podcast.
[7:10] - Motherhood’s hidden struggles often stay silent because of societal pressure to appear happy and perfect.
[9:38] - Motherhood tends to lack space for honesty, although struggles such as guilt and isolation can unite moms.
[12:35] - Moms today deal with impossible social media standards while torn between constant presence and escaping everything.
[15:45] - Jill discusses how mothers feel intense pressure to balance perfection in parenting, appearance, career, and household responsibilities.
[18:01] - Many moms secretly crave escape, dealing with guilt, expectations, and the weight of motherhood’s mental load.
[21:00] - Jill introduces a supportive, healing virtual program for moms, designed as a safe, nurturing space.
[23:59] - Jill's upcoming program promises calmness, reassurance, and connection while remaining affordable and easy for moms to join.
[26:17] - Jill offers the program at only $197 with four video calls, support, and expertise for women!

Listen in this week as Jill brings us back to episode 158 of the podcast in which she shares some personal reflections on codependency, using her experience with chickens as a powerful metaphor. After her podcast gained significant success, ranking in the top 100 out of 2 million shows, Jill discusses a truly humbling moment when she forgot to record an insightful episode, leading her to contemplate the deeper lessons in her life!

She begins by recounting her journey of raising chickens on her 30-acre property in rural Indiana. Through funny and touching stories about bonding with her chickens, Jill explores how her care for them mirrors her tendency to neglect her own needs. This connection serves as a lens for understanding codependency, particularly her struggle with feeling responsible for others' happiness, including her children.

As she learns to care for her chickens without overextending herself, Jill uncovers a critical truth, which is that we often take on others' burdens, believing that we can shield them from pain, with the reality being that this only prolongs their lessons and reinforces our own patterns of guilt. By stepping back and allowing her chickens – and, of course, by extension, her loved ones - to face their challenges, Jill gains clarity on how to foster self-worth and set healthy boundaries.

Tune in for a blend of lighthearted anecdotes and profound insights in this episode, as Jill encourages everyone to reflect on their own relationships and personal growth. Through her honest storytelling, Jill invites us to examine how we care for ourselves and others, while embracing the important lessons that life presents!

Welcoming back Dr. Molly Harmon, we are taking what we learned in the previous episode to the next level.

Why is acupuncture the first thing that Dr. Harmon does when she’s not feeling well? How is birth control causing panic attacks and depression?

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 in today’s episode. The strange comfort we find in suffering.

With the uncertain times we are experiencing right now and with the holidays coming up, this topic is so important. We all need to be aware of the distinction between sadness and suffering. You and I get to decide everyday whether or not we will feel and experience pain or if we will sign up to suffer. As we navigate this together today, know that you are not alone and through this journey, you can let go to finally be you.

As we continue on our own unique journeys excavating our real true selves, we must learn to be fully present in whatever season we’re in. In that precise moment. Some of these seasons are so hard, painful, and exhausting while others are filled with excitement and joy. But oftentimes we dwell on the negative and forget to soak up the happier moments. How can you fully surrender to the season you are in? How can you accept it as an opportunity to learn and grow?

We’ve talked about finding the right coach before. There are qualities you can look for and things that might be some red flags. But today we’re taking a different approach. There are some experiences that we go through that truly give us growth. Things that trigger us deeply and things that challenge us. Let's go beyond the coaches and breath work and inner child work and learn from those around us who have grown from these life experiences.

Whether you’re already a champion of women’s empowerment, you’re interested in personal development, you’d like advice on being yourself, you’re looking for a community of women helping women, or you’re just here for Jill’s lessons and entertainment, the Be You podcast is for you.

Even with a peaceful disposition and positive outlook on life, sometimes we get a real zinger. Something that hurts us to the core. Something that makes us want to curl up in bed and never come out. It happens. And in today’s episode, I have a personal story to share that is intended to show you a different way to see pain.

In this episode, I provide questions to ask yourself in times of crisis to see the entire situation through a different lens. I give you examples of my initial response to a recent crisis and how being reminded of the highest version of myself allowed me to see things through the lens of love.

In this podcast journey, every now and then I have an experience and I just know I need to bring it to Be You. Today’s episode comes from a conversation with a friend and the question that was asked of her that stopped her dead in her tracks. It did that to me, too, and it all comes full circle. I’ve talked about in past episodes about finding the evidence in experiences of signs and the hand of our creator. And this question is exactly what I wish I had asked myself a long time ago.

In this short episode, I share personal experiences and actionable steps including a breathing exercise and a journaling opportunity. This somastic release is scary, even for me, but we’re doing this together. Go there with me and ask yourself, “Where was God in that story?”

The idea for this episode was inspired by a text conversation with a dear friend. Isn’t it funny how things like that happen? I knew immediately that I needed to talk about it in today’s episode and that is the idea of choosing happiness.

Many of us, myself included, have lived our lives not accessing the happiness that is right there. It is right there in front of us and we can actually choose it. But as with so many other things, we let our brains get in the way and we let our worries take over. So after my text conversation that just hit me in the gut, I jotted down three ways we can start the letting go process and start accessing the happiness that is right in front of us.

We all do this. We encounter a woman who exudes confidence and instead of seeing them for who they are, we feel attacked. There’s like a secret code we live by as women where we play small, hide, and consciously choose to bury our own confidence. When we do that, we are not living life fully self-expressed. But when women start breaking that code, there will be others who feel threatened.

In this episode of Be You, I share personal experiences of how I have felt attacked by the confidence of other women. I also share the reactions I’ve had at different points in my life and journey. I can’t say I’m proud of my reactions, but the reason this is a topic for today’s episode is because I recently made the discovery of how far I’ve come. I’m still working and growing, but instead of trying to point out flaws, I’m finally able to see the beauty in others because I’m finally able to see the beauty in myself. It’s time you do the same.

Show Notes:

[4:01] - When we are uncomfortable with the confidence of another woman, it will feel like a confrontation rather than an embrace.

[5:03] - Some women own who they are in the moment and exude confidence. Jill admits that that is something she has felt personally attacked by this discomfort.

[6:23] - This isn’t something we normally talk about because we either think we’re the only ones or we don’t want to bring attention to ourselves.

[7:05] - Jill shares the story of her mother-in-law criticizing her posting of selfies. Jill knew why she was doing it, but she did not.

[8:48] - When posting something new on the Be You Podcast, she had to take a moment to reflect on how she has done the same.

[10:14] - You will get to the point with this work where you will ask the question and the answer will sting. But as you keep going you won’t feel the sting anymore.

[11:16] - One day you won’t be triggered by this. Jill explains that when that happens, you can see the beauty in the confident women and learn the lesson.

[12:37] - Jill describes how the confident women in your life are mirrors of yourself.

[14:58] - When we encounter and critique a confident woman, we will try to find a flaw, put a spotlight on it, and stick it into conversations.

[16:40] - Because we do not feel as confident as another woman, we feel attacked.

[16:57] - Another thing we do is we attack a confident woman’s intentions and character.

[18:04] - If we don’t attack the other woman, we pretend they don’t trigger us.

[19:08] - Jill realized the growth she has made when she first saw Joy Harrington, a previous podcast guest.

[20:41] - What is your first honest reaction when encountering a strong and confident woman?

I know there was something in this episode that you were meant to hear. Let me know what that is. Thank you for being here today with me on our healing journeys.

This week on Be You, listen as Jill passionately shares some details about her recent "More of Me" retreat, a luxurious weekend designed for women seeking deeper self-connection and personal growth. With a focus on vulnerability and authenticity, she shares her insights from hosting six incredible women in her expansive home, creating an intimate environment where attendees could explore their emotions and release any masks that they wear in everyday life.

Jill reflects on the magic that unfolded throughout the retreat, from the heartfelt connections formed to the emotional breakthroughs that participants experienced. Each moment was carefully curated, from welcome mocktails to gourmet meals prepared by a private chef, emphasizing the importance of nourishment (both physical and emotional). The weekend retreat allowed women to be fully seen and heard, encouraging them to embrace their true selves while shedding the burdens of their daily responsibilities.

Expect to learn about the profound impact of being part of a supportive community, as well as the significance of allowing oneself time for integration and reflection. Jill’s truly passionate recounting of the retreat reveals how it went beyond expectations, emphasizing that true healing and transformation can happen when women come together in a safe and nurturing space. 

While, in the interest of privacy and the retreat being a safe space, Jill does not go into ALL of the details, she does promise that the participants' stories of growth and self-discovery will continue in the next episode, leaving listeners eager to join the journey of healing and connection!

I am confident that many if not most of us worry. Everyone worries to different extremes, but if you are not the type of person who worries, I can’t relate. But what does that worrying mean and what can we do about it?

In this episode, we discuss what worrying is actually doing to our minds and bodies. Remember that there is only love and fear, so where does worry fit in? It certainly doesn’t come from love and when we worry we are calling out and beckoning the things we stress over right to us. 

I will be the first to say that letting go of worrying is not something that just happens. It isn’t a switch we can turn on and off. But when we truly breathe, love ourselves, and surrender, worry can’t grow.

2022 is going to be a year of awakening for many, but with that comes pressure. As we’re looking at walking into this new year for this community, I am inviting you to feel no pressure to become something new, compare your journey to those of others, or even set any goal whatsoever. Within you is wisdom and intuition. Ask yourself, “what could this life of mine look like if I weren’t afraid to say it out loud?” Start with that before you think about anything else and listen to this episode for the inspiration to start the new year with no pressure.

I was once told to write from my scars and not my wounds. This piece of advice for my writing made me realize that this applies to every aspect of life, especially relationships. This episode is all about how to recognize wounds and scars and how living through wounds will always lead to disappointment and heartache. How can we live through scars instead? Believe me, it shows up in everything and in this episode, I share personal stories of relationships and how living through my wounds even impacted my parenting.

This episode is not just a reintroduction but a celebration of Jill's growth, vulnerability, and unrelenting commitment to living up to the title of the show and being herself, a must-listen for anyone who has followed her journey or is seeking inspiration on their own path to self-discovery!

What is true transformation? 

It’s the perfect way to start the new year. We hear a lot about goals and resolutions, but true transformation is not the kind where we’re fooling ourselves. True transformation isn’t an Instagram buzzword. It’s not “new year, new you.”

There is a difference between getting out of your comfort zone and stress. So today’s guest will show us exactly what that means and what helps us get there. Bek Antonucci is helping us kick off a new year to help us follow through on our commitments and make our dreams come alive.
