Hey friends — today’s conversation is one that I know is going to hit home for a lot of you. I sat down with bestselling author and marketing strategist Katherine Rose Woller, who shares her incredibly raw and honest story about calling off her wedding just two weeks before walking down the aisle.

We get into the heavy stuff — self-trust, perfectionism, ignoring red flags, and that gut feeling so many of us talk ourselves out of. Katherine opens up about what led her to make such a life-altering decision, how she navigated the grief and healing afterwards, and how ultimately that hard choice helped her build deep trust in herself moving forward.

We also talk about:

• Why trusting your body can help you make hard decisions
• How perfectionism and comparison keep us stuck
• The lessons Katherine learned as she stepped back into dating
• The process of writing her book Calling It Off from a fully healed place
• Why sometimes we already know the answer — we just don’t trust ourselves to own it yet

Whether you’ve ever questioned a relationship, a career, or any big decision, Katherine’s story is going to give you so much permission to lean into your own knowing. This conversation felt like two girlfriends being super honest about the messy, complicated parts of life — and I know it’s going to speak to so many of you.

Hey friends — Jess here! This episode is such a special one because I’m bringing back someone who truly changed the game for me in life, business, parenting... basically everything. I’m talking about the one and only Erin Claire Jones — one of the world’s top Human Design experts and my personal Human Design teacher. 🙌 I still remember thinking I was a generator or manifesting generator… turns out, I’m a projector. Erin helped me understand what that meant and how to actually live in alignment with it — and that changed everything. In this convo, we talk about:

• How Erin discovered Human Design (it started with a stranger in NYC!)
• The 5 Human Design types (and how they show up differently)
• How knowing your type, strategy & authority can shift your business, your relationships, and your energy
• Using Human Design as a parent, partner, and coach
• The power of making aligned decisions — and why it's the core of Erin’s new book
• What it really looks like to build a business that works for you

We also geek out over my son’s manifesting generator energy, my generator partner, and how learning Human Design gave me the tools to show up more confidently and give the people in my life the grace and understanding they deserve (including myself). 💛 Erin’s work has touched hundreds of thousands of people across 160+ countries. She’s been featured in Forbes, Elle, Vogue, and more — and now her brand new book is here to bring Human Design to even more people in a down-to-earth, practical way. 📘 Grab Erin’s book “Human Design: A Guide to Making Life Work” → https://humandesignblueprint.com/order-book/ 🔎 Want to find out your Human Design type?

This is one of those episodes you’ll want to listen to more than once (trust me). If you’ve been feeling stuck, unclear, or just want to understand yourself and the people you love on a deeper level — this one’s for you. And if something resonated, PLEASE tag us on IG, screenshot the episode, and share your biggest takeaway! I’m obsessed with hearing how this stuff is landing for you. Sending you all the aligned invitations 🫶

You guys… THIS conversation is a reminder that your past doesn’t get to dictate your future. I sat down with my girl Tara Dominguez, and let me just say—she’s one of those women whose story gives you chills and motivation all in one. Tara is proof that where you start doesn’t define where you’re going. She was a small-town girl who almost didn’t graduate high school, went to beauty school right after, and packed up for LA to chase her dreams. Yes, she assisted on Nip/Tuck (like what?!)—but her real glow-up began back at a JCPenney salon, where she would literally sit in the break room googling the PRESIDENT of the company while sipping burnt coffee… because she knew she was meant for more. Fast forward a few years—and she’s the owner of a 4,000 sq. ft. salon, has built a multiple 7-figure business, and is now launching her own podcast. But don’t get it twisted—Tara is not here to share just the highlight reel. We talked about:

• What really goes into growing a profitable salon (and what no one tells you)
• Why chasing perfection is killing your authenticity
• Building something sustainable as a mom, a fiancée, and an evolving woman
• Knowing when it’s time to pivot—even when it’s scary
• And how to stop giving so much that you’re left with nothing

Tara’s got stories, y’all. The wins and the “WTF just happened” moments. Like when she thought her car got stolen—but it was just… repossessed. 🙃 She’s real, honest, and on a mission to help other women build brands, businesses, and lives that actually feel aligned. This one’s for anyone who's outgrowing their current season but doesn’t know what’s next. For the woman who’s tired of starting over. For the salon owner who’s burned out from doing all the things. Tara’s message is clear: confidence changes everything. Let us know your favorite takeaways over on IG, and be sure to check out her course and mentorship if you're ready to take your salon—and your mindset—to the next level. 💥

What. An. Episode. This one’s special, not just because Alyssa Lang is a powerhouse entrepreneur, but because she's someone I now call a close friend. We met at one of my in-person events, and within five minutes she was in tears sharing her story with me. That convo sparked something huge—and ultimately led to the launch of her new podcast, Magnetic Millionaire. In this episode, Alyssa and I talk about so much more than business. We dive into: - Why she shifted from private to public podcasting (and why gatekeeping isn't it) - Her unexpected journey from bartender to bookkeeping queen to launch strategist - What losing her brother taught her about living FULLY and unapologetically - Scaling with intention, not pressure—and why not every business is meant to hit 7 figures - What to ask before you invest in rooms, masterminds, or coaches - How grief, growth, and purpose collide in the best (and hardest) ways This convo is raw, real, and wildly inspiring. Alyssa holds nothing back—she shares numbers, mindset shifts, even the podcast name drama that almost derailed her launch (spoiler: she pivoted like a boss). If you’re pivoting, starting something new, or wondering if your story is worth sharing... this is your sign. 🎧 *Listen in and let us know what hit home. And if Alyssa has ever been a “Jimmy” for you—yep, you’ll get the reference when you listen—shoot her a message and let her know. 😉

This convo is for every entrepreneur who's ever asked, “Should I start a podcast?” My girl Beth Nydick is here to tell you—maybe not. And she’s got the receipts to back it up. Beth and I dive deep into why being a guest on the right shows might be a better (and way more strategic) move than hosting your own. She shares her journey from working on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to helping entrepreneurs land—and leverage—powerful podcast guest spots that actually convert. We talk about:

• Why “visibility without strategy is just performance” 💥
• The 3 types of podcasts every expert should aim for—and how to tell which one you’re on
• The biggest mistake guests make that leads to zero ROI
• How to tell stories that sell (without sounding salesy)
• Beth’s signature 4-part storytelling structure that gets her clients featured and paid
• Why you need to promote your podcast appearances long after the episode drops

Beth also shares a behind-the-scenes peek into her program, Mic to Millions, and gives us permission to be bold, be visible, and borrow confidence if we need to. This episode is equal parts pep talk and strategy session—and whether you're pitching yourself or hosting your own show, Beth’s insights are a game-changer. 🎯 Want a juicy bonus from Beth? DM her the word JESSICA on Instagram @bethnydick and she’ll send you something special just for this community. Let’s stop wasting time and start showing up with purpose, friends.

In this solo episode, I get super real about something that has completely transformed my life and business: community. Not just surface-level support or double taps on social media—but the kind of high-level, heart-centered community that challenges you to expand.

I’m sharing the story of how getting in the right rooms—virtually and in person—helped me move from burnout and stagnation to clarity and massive growth. I also introduce something I’ve been building quietly behind the scenes: The Podcast Community—a mastermind-style space specifically for podcasters looking for collaboration, momentum, and long-term support.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between decisions or like you're doing this whole journey alone, this episode is your sign to lean into connection. Because truthfully? You’re not meant to do this by yourself.

In this episode of Unscripted, I had a chance to sit down with the vibrant and insanely creative Dalia (@daliaforreels) — the go-to expert when it comes to helping entrepreneurs create video content that actually converts. I’ve worked with her personally and seen firsthand how she captures moments with intention and strategy, without making content creation feel overwhelming. She shared all about how she got started (spoiler: she said yes to a creative challenge from a friend), why most of us overthink our reels, and how to finally stop “comparisonitis” in its tracks. She also shares her Magnetic Content Method — a simple way to build a vault of content from your day-to-day life — and gives us a peek inside her beginner-friendly mini-course (which she’s generously offering to my listeners at 75% off!). If you’ve ever felt awkward, stuck, or unsure where to begin when it comes to showing up on video, this episode is for you. ✨ Bonus: Stay till the end for practical tips like why cleaning your lens matters and how to use time-lapses for easy, effective content.

Hey guys, this one is so special. In this episode of Unscripted, I’m joined by my Instagram bestie—yes, a true soul sister I’ve never met IRL—Jenny Reh, and it's her very first podcast ever! We’ve connected through DMs over the years and finally hit record on the convo we've been having for so long.

Jenny and I have a lot in common—we both come from the beauty industry, we’ve both pivoted into the wellness space, and we’ve both felt that loud nudge (okay, scream) from the universe when it was time to shift gears. She shares how becoming a mom and navigating her own autoimmune diagnosis led her to leave a 23-year hairstyling career and step into functional nutrition. Oh—and she’s now moving to freaking Spain with her family. Yep, she’s doing the thing so many of us only dream about!

We get into everything from:

• The real signs it's time to pivot
• What it takes to build a freedom-based business
• The emotional weight of working in service roles (like behind the chair)
• Clean beauty, gut health, sleep, stress, and all the fun stuff no one likes to talk about

Jenny’s energy is magnetic, her story is relatable, and this episode is your loving permission slip to explore what’s next for you. Whether it’s switching careers, starting something new, or packing up and moving across the globe—this chat is all heart and real-life action steps.

If you’ve been craving a change or quietly whispering, there’s more for me,—this is your sign.
