In this episode, I’m trying something new.

This is the first Ask Me Anything episode under the new 2026 format, and I’m answering real, anonymous questions submitted on Instagram.

I talk about how to navigate the gap between the life you imagined and the life you’re living. I walk through how I use the STEAR model to separate neutral facts from the stories we tell ourselves, and how unexamined thoughts can quietly turn grief into suffering.

I also answer questions about feeling stuck, fulfillment in your career, redefining success, and one belief I had to unlearn in order to truly help others.

If you have a question you’d like answered in a future Ask Me Anything episode, I invite yours today. Send me a DM @jessicasmarro on Instagram or Facebook, or send your questions to jessica@jessicasmarro.com. Your question might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.

Let’s Get Unblocked!

This episode is a personal reflection and reset. I’m looking back on 2025 through the lens of my word of the year, unimaginable, and sharing what surprised me most, what stretched me, and what I’m genuinely proud of.

I also pull back the curtain on what’s changing as I head into 2026. You’ll hear how I’m rethinking the structure and rhythm of the Unblocked podcast.

I share my new word of the year for 2026 and what it means for how I want to live, create, and lead moving forward. I talk about holding goals lightly, following the next right step even when the path is unclear, and choosing growth because of who you become along the way.

This episode is an invitation to reflect on your own year, notice what you created and how you created it, celebrate yourself more fully, and to step into what’s next with curiosity instead of pressure.

If you’re feeling called to pause, reset, and move forward with more intention, this conversation is for you.

Let’s Get Unblocked!

In this episode of Unblocked, I sit down with Jena Lorén, also known as The Consciousness Architect, for a powerful conversation about ego, alignment, and identity shifts.

Jena shares her personal journey through trauma, survival patterns, and major life transitions, and how those experiences shaped the work she does today. We talk about how ego forms as a protective mechanism, how it quietly runs our decisions, and why so many ambitious women feel successful on the outside but misaligned on the inside.

We explore the four Egoic Archetypes, the Realist, Rebel, Martyr, and Illusionist, and how learning to pause, reflect, and respond instead of react can create real freedom. This episode is a reminder that living an unblocked life is not about adding more tools or fixing yourself. It is about removing the blocks to the awareness of who you already are.
