Ep. 60 - Jen, Lauren, and Kimberly conclude their deep-dive conversation on don Miguel Ruiz's life-changing book, The Four Agreements. The episode kicks off with a look at how understanding the second agreement—Don't Take Anything Personally—allows you to reclaim your personal power and protect your inner peace. Jen vulnerably shares her own mid-life transformation, detailing her journey away from a people-pleasing corporate mindset toward stronger boundaries and self-discovery as an empty nester.

Ep. 58 - Nomi, the founder of Calibu Healing, joins Jen to discuss the transformative power of alternative healing modalities. After navigating her own journey through anxiety, depression, and the reliance on pharmaceuticals, Nomi dedicated her life to creating a space—on her 4-acre property in Calabasas—where others can find nervous system regulation through nature, sound, and somatic practices. Nomi and Jen discuss the science behind sound healing, the importance of "dropping in" to the parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system, and why moving away from a constant state of "doing" is essential for modern mental health.
