Jill gives a brief life update including a few lessons learned and then lists ten ways to know that you're actually healing. Many times, we chase being healed and forget that it's not a destination. It's a lifelong journey.

AND, we forget that embodiment shows up in ways we least expect. When we no longer feel guilty for resting, for example, that's a sign we are healing!

Don't forget, Jill is gearing up for an in-person retreat in September which is not just a gathering but a transformative experience where women are already starting to see shifts just by committing! There is even a private room left if you’re feeling called to join us! Go to jillherman.com for more info!

Even if it’s not summer where you are, you’ll love this solo episode!

This practical and energizing exercise will ensure that the season ahead is experienced (and ENJOYED) by DESIGN and not by default.

So many people find that summer goes so quickly and gets away from them and then before they know it, they look back with regret, missed opportunities and can’t even remember what they did all summer.

Has this happened to you? Do you feel like it’s already starting with all of the graduation parties and weddings, other invitations and new responsibilities?

Jill shares a really energizing and practical exercise so that you can truly have a summer of YOU.

[2:55] - Let’s have an attitude of intentionality going into the summer.

[5:05] - We can be grateful for busy plans, and we can also feel overwhelmed.

[8:18] - Literally write down the things you want to experience this summer AND the things you don’t want to experience.

[10:59] - Jill shares some of the things on her list.

[13:48] - You can have amazing and beautiful experiences that don’t cost a dime. What do you want to experience?

[16:50] - Sometimes we need something to cleanse our palette when things get too much.

[19:13] - Whatever you do by default is what you do all the time.

[6:10] - Emily shares her background and the 15 years she spent climbing a career ladder.

[8:25] - She went into marketing and consulting, but when Covid hit, she made a shift.

[10:51] - Emily describes a wake-up call that she got during a phone call with her dad.

[14:40] - It’s one thing to go from good to great. It’s another thing to go from great and the potential of even greater to leaving it behind for uncertainty.

[16:28] - At the start of her business, she felt regret and grief over the loss of her identity markers and “throwing it all away.”

[18:09] - Her ego was in rejection of what was occurring, but there was something in her that knew it was worth it. She kept going with no tangible evidence that it was working.

[19:35] - Emily took an opportunity for a lengthy interview process and realized that she couldn’t see it through.

[21:24] - There can be some programming that includes a lot of guilt and shame for entrepreneurs having a typical “real” job.

[25:06] - She truly followed her intuition. She physically felt her intuition telling her to keep going.

[27:14] - Entrepreneurship is pushing a boulder up a mountain for an extended period of time. But eventually you create momentum.

[30:22] - When she started on her entrepreneurship journey, she resisted anything that felt like marketing.

[32:32] - Entrepreneurship is shadow work like no other. It activates all your greatest doubts, insecurities, and fears.

[35:44] - The focus on money freaks a lot of entrepreneurs out and activates the fear that they aren’t doing enough.

[40:59] - Sales is a crucial part of being an entrepreneur but it makes a lot of women business owners feel icky.

[45:06] - Emily discusses the difference between the law of attraction and the law of action.

[47:43] - Entrepreneurship is not for everyone. It is inherently hard due to uncertainty and discomfort.

[52:10] - Marketing isn’t saying a million different things. It is saying the same thing a million different ways.

Too few of us are willing to be true to ourselves and risk disappointing or (GASP!) offending others.

We rarely speak our truth or ask for what we want.

We shrink, hide and politely accept and agree to terms we don’t want in order to be accepted and liked.

What if we didn’t?

[3:10] - We need to be willing to get uncomfortable and potentially make others uncomfortable by asking for the things we want.

[4:21] - We’ve been taught to be “the good girl.” We wind up saying yes to everything to be nice and not be “too much.”

[7:07] - It’s hard to stand up for ourselves and it takes practice.

[8:50] - When will you allow yourself to have the things you want to your satisfaction?

[10:27] - With more practice it becomes harder to not follow your true north.

[14:29] - Don’t apologize for your decisions. You can apologize for taking someone’s time or inconveniencing them, but not for your decision.

[17:40] - Many times life is going to put us in situations that are so extreme to show us how bad it feels to abandon ourselves so we can really make the decision to choose ourselves.

[19:14] - Think of a situation where you spoke up for yourself and how it showed up in your body. Now think of a time when you didn’t.

[21:08] - You don’t have to abandon yourself and your needs to fulfill the needs of someone else.

[23:36] - It will eventually feel so natural to stand up for yourselves.

[29:03] - Jill gives an example of how “the flavor can change.” What feels right to you and when are you willing to compromise?

[31:10] - What are your rules? What are your boundaries?

Jill uses her gift of storytelling and uses her words to paint three pictures that the listener can see vividly and clearly as they extract a personal message and lesson for themselves.

[2:27] - Every human being deserves to have these “ah-ha’s.”

[5:41] - Sometimes, the biggest gifts come from struggling. But suffering is optional.

[7:23] - Jill was convinced that she would learn something specific, but she had to learn something different and trust the process.

[9:01] - Integration and embodiment can be used in so many different areas. The difference between knowing in your head and knowing in your body.

[11:26] - Subtle change leads to huge change.

[12:45] - Jill describes the experience.

[15:10] - “It’s a trick question. I choose both.”

[16:57] - The second lesson is all about how Jill’s art will be perceived.

[18:45] - Someone could have told me these things, but I had to experience this and release so much through physical discomfort to access this.

[21:18] - Jill describes what she saw that led to the third lesson learned in this journey.

[23:48] - What if we look back at trauma and painful experiences as a grown adult and not from the perspective of a child?

Meet one of Jill’s dearest friends and soul sisters, who happens to be 20 years younger. What? YES!

Sydney Pacula Owen has a love for both the energetic world unseen and our earthly three dimensional experience. She professionally works as a jewelry designer in her family’s Diamond business focusing on engagement rings and redesigning the old to new. In her creative work, dance is her religion. She has taught creative movement and movement arts to all ages over the past 15 years. Her teaching emphasizes dance as an enjoyable, authentic form of expression. She finds her greatest fulfillment in connecting with others through art whether it be diamonds or dance.

Listen as they explore unconventional friendship, spirituality, the healing art of intuitive dance, and what it means to find God without rules.

[2:08] - Do you have relationships with other people that aren’t easy? Do they feel forced or feel like they don’t flow well?

[4:16] - Do you radically accept everything about yourself? Because if you don’t, you can’t expect that out of a relationship.

[7:50] - Check out Sydney’s website: Pacula Diamonds.

[12:21] - Jill shares her version of meeting Sydney and the deep knowing that she was supposed to do something with her.

[14:45] - Sydney explains how she knew she was supposed to be there for Jill.

[19:02] - Sydney invited Jill to the moon dance experience and kept the invitation intentionally vague.

[21:29] - If you are at all interested in a women’s dance circle, observe one. It opens up a sense of community.

[22:46] - Giving yourself permission gives others permission.

[25:43] - Sydney had to learn to just trust in the space she has created.

[27:30] - Sydney explains how and why she got into dancing and movement as a way to overcome her disconnection.

[31:53] - Intuitive dance is not planned or choreographed. It will be different every time because it is what you need at the moment.

[35:03] - Give yourself the time and space to just be.

[38:47] - By connecting with her body and truly loving herself through movement and dance, she was able to love herself and her body more.

[41:21] - Sydney describes her faith and how her spirituality doesn’t fit into societal religious practice.

[45:13] - Jill has discovered the freedom of being in tune with herself and finding God there.

[47:50] - Prayer and church do not need to look the same for everyone.

[54:21] - Sydney has always been told that she is “an old woman.”
