What happens when life doesn't follow the plan you worked so hard to create?

In this deeply human episode of Permission Slip-Ups, Jill Yashinsky-Wortman shares how burnout, grief, and unexpected loss cracked her life wide open and revealed a truer, more courageous version of herself. Through raw storytelling and honest reflection, Jill explores what it means to stop waiting for the "right time," trust yourself again, and take the next right step—even when the whole path isn't clear.

This conversation is about grief and growth, surrender and self-trust, and the quiet permission to live now, not someday.

Letting Go of Comparison and Returning to Ourselves

In this episode of Permission Slip-ups, David and Kate take an honest look at performance-driven behavior — especially the kind that shows up when we feel like others are watching. After David shares a moment of self-awareness about comparing himself to others on social media, the conversation opens into a deeper exploration of comparison, judgment, and the pressure to appear consistent or successful. Together, they unpack how easy it is to fall into inauthentic performance and how much courage it takes to stay aligned with who we truly are.

A Simpler Approach to Growth and Commitment...

In this episode of Permission Slip-ups, Kate and David explore the annual ritual of New Year's resolutions — why we make them, why they often fade, and what actually helps us create meaningful change. After a playful look at the cultural obsession with "new year, new you," they shift into a deeper conversation about clarity, intention, and choosing the one thing that truly moves you forward. This episode invites listeners to break free from overwhelm and align with the action that matters most.
