  • Welcome to the show! Today we are sitting down and pulling up a chair with Jamie Javed, RN, BSN + Transformational Health Coach. Jamie had an 8-year career as a nurse in the ER + Critical Care Unit prior to her journey today. She got to experience what the gift of Western medicine can do, but then realized, alongside her husband who is a critical care physician, that there was no instruction for preventing disease and instilling health in the medical model.

    Today, she lives in California with her 3 children and husband as they put down new roots for the next chapter in their holistic healing journey.

    Here’s a peek at what’s inside:

    This show is all about lessening the need for traditional medicine, taking the power back as you transform your relationship to your own health, and what goes into the identity change to make shifts like these possible.

    It’s about having the courage to be that woman who goes first and being an example for what health is which includes developing healthy patterns in your life.

  • Welcome to back to the show for this Bonus Episode all about the real real of the vulnerability of being seen in your new way when you make a shift or change. You might be putting yourself in a new place or even just refreshing what you have, and you can get locked up by straddling the line of old and new.

    As a brand and business educator, I work with the tender-shoot-dream space with my clients and creatives who are needing support in navigating where they are to where they want to go.

    The truth is it's totally normal to feel awkward in your newness. We see so many outwardly positive, happy examples of risk-taking, but risk-taking doesn’t always happen from a mountaintop moment. I personally was in a very low place when I had the awareness and clarity that I needed to make changes. Let's jump in!

  • Welcome to Season 3! We are diving right in with a very intimate conversation today about creating your life. I am here with Sandy Critides, and we are holding nothing back as we dive into our motherhood and life journeys. If you’re looking for a conversation about having the power to choose differently, this show is for you.

    Together, we are very transparent about what we’ve chosen for ourselves and in our motherhood journeys. We talk about being the parents we wanted to be and putting a lot of thought and intention into these roles of our lives.

    You will hear us share about what we thought was “normal” due to our upbringings and how we have chosen to course-correct in our own adult lives. We talk openly about out therapy journeys and remaking pathways for ourselves including the work that goes into changing habits and patterns, recognizing them and the self-awareness required of us because of the future we believe in for our children.

    Sandy and I talk about creating our experiences, making deliberate choices, and reparenting ourselves while parenting our own kids. We also talk about apologizing, being mindful and curious, changing mindsets, and setting boundaries. Tune in this episode to hear more!

  • I used to think that podcasting was unreachable for me — that other people could do it, but it wasn’t something that I could figure out, afford, or do myself. Well today, I have a Top 10% podcast! So I’m sharing everything I use, my philosophy on podcasting, how I create 2 shows a month, the most frequently asked questions I receive, the benefits I deeply feel from it, and parts from a pop-up studio session in The Lab where members could ask me anything they wanted and we brainstormed together.

I am working on my own goals, and I’m here to walk right alongside you with yours! Let’s go!

    I hope this is a helpful and insightful show. Here’s what we’re diving into today:

    Have you ever thought about starting your own podcast? Are you curious about the whole process — nuts and bolts, setup, how it works, and creating the vision needed to see it through? Would you like to know which specific products I use? I am sharing exactly what's in my setup How do you know if your podcast idea is a good one? My philosophy on podcasting What are the necessary steps to starting a podcast? What are the benefits of podcasting? What about the downsides?

  • Could your soul use a warm bath of permission, storytelling, and love? Just in time for the start of September, you will not want to miss today’s show! I'm here with Molly Crouch. Molly and I talk about her experience of realizing the pace of her family’s life needed to change. We dig into making the right decisions for yourself and/or your family regardless of unspoken pressures and expectations. We also talk about Molly’s coaching journey, what it looks like to be an empowered woman, and the slow bleed that is comparison. Tune in to this episode to hear more!

    Molly Crouch is the founder of In Her Company, a blog celebrating the strength and grace of women, the beauty of friendships, and the power of our influence. She is a mom of four, with ten years between her bookend kids, and lives in Charlottesville, Virginia. She believes in gathering, connecting, and truth telling, and that every woman has a story worth sharing. She also thinks that comparison is a slow bleed, friendships that make space for inspiration, affirmation, and encouragement are important. She believes in rest and margins, the practice of gratitude, and that laughter, Pinot noir, and girlfriends’ weekends can probably fix just about anything. She believes that a woman is known by the company she keeps.

  • Today's episode is dedicated to the new moms and future moms out there. We are talking about "reinventing who you are" after the baby. We are talking openly about fighting the lies that depression and anxiety tell you day in and day out.

    This is a mental health episode today, and I always say the same thing: It's sometimes really helpful to hear this, but if you're in a certain place, it might not be, so come back later if that's what's best for you.

    Britt Davis is a mom of four and lives on a farm in Greenwood, VA. During the pandemic, she picked up a paintbrush for the first time and has since been using her art as a platform to discuss difficult topics, such as mental health issues, anxiety, and PPD.

    Britt and I talk about her best friend’s passing, our experiences with perinatal and PPD, the difficult side of motherhood, and the importance of reaching out to others. We also talk about Britt’s art, spreading positivity into the world, and some helpful resources for those who find themselves in the pit. Tune in this episode to hear more!

    Let’s dive in.

    In this Episode You’ll Learn:

    [10:15] A bit about Britt. [11:44] Uplifting Britt’s best friend’s story. [14:50] A little bit about Alison. [19:24] Embracing the motherhood journey. [28:29] Perinatal and PPD. [38:16] Facing the fear of reaching out. [40:47] Britt’s art journey. [44:41] Check in, even when there are no red flags. [45:48] Surprises from Britt’s journey. [47:17] What to do when you’re in the pit. [50:05] What is something that Britt needs a hug about? [50:57] A song to add to your motherhood playlist.

    Quotes:

    “There’s no judgement for mental health.” [14:15] “As soon as you think you have things figured out as a mom, something changes, and you have to recreate the wheel.” [19:57] “No matter how many kids you have, whether it’s your first or your fourth, you don’t know how you’re going to do in postpartum or in your pregnancy.” [25:52] “Reach out to your people.” [45:18] “You will get out of the fog.” [46:10]
