This is my last episode of the year (see you in 2026!), and I'm getting real with you about something that's been weighing on me: how and why we give up our power. After a recent incident that left me asking "why didn't I just walk away?", I did some deep reflection on why we still feel compelled to answer pointed questions, keep the peace at all costs, and put ourselves in uncomfortable situations just to avoid rocking the boat.

Here's what I know after 56 years: we've been conditioned since youth to not speak up, to keep the peace, and to feel like we owe people our opinions, answers, and presence. But here's the truth: we're too f’ing old for this! This episode isn't about blaming anyone else or burning bridges. It's about recognizing where we're losing our power and understanding why, so we can do things differently moving forward. Whether it's at the holiday table, in friendships, at work, or even in our marriages (yes, I'm referencing that recent New York Magazine article on women quietly quitting their marriages), it's time to reclaim our power!

Listen if you want to:

• Understand why you feel compelled to stay in uncomfortable situations instead of walking away
• Learn how to gracefully reclaim your power without burning bridges or blowing up families
• Get a year-end reflection assignment that will help you identify where you've been giving up your power
• Discover why changing relationship dynamics is so hard (and why that's okay)
• Start 2026 ready to stand up for yourself with grace and balance

I just turned 56 and I have some news—I finally launched my Substack! After thinking about it for two years (sound familiar?), I made it happen on my birthday. It's called YNTFO with Jen, and I'm so excited about this new way for us to connect and be in real conversation together.

This episode is a quick one where I'm sharing what's on my heart as I step into this new year. I'm talking about putting your health first, being present with the people you love, and why leading with love and compassion matters more than ever. Plus, I'm sharing what I learned from hosting my recent event and why I'm feeling like I'm finally back in sync with what I'm meant to do in this world.

Listen if you want to:

• Hear about my new Substack and how we can connect there (it's free!)
• Get a birthday reminder to prioritize your health and stop white-knuckling through life
• Be inspired to take one small action that creates ripples of change
• Remember that women supporting women is how we move forward
• Feel the permission to be exactly where you are right now

You’re Not Too F***ing Old! To launch a Substack!

This conversation with Dr. Ricci-Jane Adams completely blew my mind, and I know it's going to do the same for you. We're diving deep into intuitive intelligence, which is basically intuition at its highest, most refined level. Think of it like taking that gut instinct we all have and elevating it to expert status. Ricc-Janei breaks down how to actually access that inner knowing, especially when we're making those big midlife decisions that feel overwhelming. She's giving us the real tools to move from gut instinct to full-blown intuitive mastery, and this is exactly what we need right now.

The truth is, we're all running around completely dysregulated, making decisions from a place of stress and fear (guilty!), and wondering why we can't hear our inner wisdom. Ricci-Jane explains why fear is actually intuition's messenger and how our nervous system fitness is the key to unlocking our personal authority. This episode is packed with practical tools like the 4 S's (stillness, silence, solitude, slowness) and her game-changing Micro Method. This is required listening, my friends!

You Need to Listen If You Want To:

• Learn how to distinguish between your intuition and trauma responses when making big decisions
• Discover the 4 S's practice that creates nervous system fitness and opens your intuitive channels
• Understand why fear is actually your intuition's messenger
• Master the 7-minute Micro Method that rewires your brain to release subconscious fear programs
• Give yourself permission to slow down and wait for the right time to act, even in our hustle-obsessed world
