Ep. #274: When You Lose Yourself in the Roles You Play
Apr 30, 2025
Ever wake up one day and wonder, âWhere did I go?â Youâre checking boxes, showing up for everyone, juggling roles like mom, wife, boss, caregiver, friend⌠and somewhere in the shuffle, you got lost. This episode is a heart-to-heart for every woman who's ever felt like she disappeared behind the roles she plays.
In this episode of "Creating Her Best Life Now," Coach Jenn and I dive deep into the powerful truth that losing yourself in roles doesn't define your true identity. We're unpacking the truth: what you do is not who you are. Those titles you carry? Theyâre part of your story, but theyâre not your identity.
Join us as we navigate through the maze of roles and rediscover the essence of being YOU. It's time to shine a light on your true identity beyond the labels and roles you've taken on. So if you're feeling burned out, unseen, or like you've forgotten what it feels like to dream for yourselfâthis one's for you.

Ep. #266: Emotions Are Messengers: How to Listen and Process Them
Mar 05, 2025
Emotions arenât just random waves of chaos trying to ruin your dayâtheyâre messengers, trying to tell you something important. But are you actually listening? In this episode, weâre diving into the truth about emotions, why we feel them so intensely, and how to stop drowning in what I call "puddle emotions." These are the feelings that keep us stuck, spiraling, or overwhelmedâlike guilt, fear, or self-doubtâwhen we donât know how to process them.
Iâll walk you through how to recognize these emotional messengers, decode what theyâre trying to tell you, and most importantly, take your power back. Because you are not your emotionsâyou are the one experiencing them. And when you learn how to work with them instead of against them, thatâs where true emotional freedom begins.
Tune in for a real, relatable conversation on how to stop letting emotions control you and start using them as the powerful guides theyâre meant to be.
