#363 Triggers, Letting Go of Other People’s Opinions with Jen Johannsen, DDS

Send us Fan MailThis week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I had the pleasure of chatting with the incredible Dr. Jen Johannsen. Jen is a dentist by trade, but she’s also a self-development nerd with a passion for financial, time, and emotional freedom. Join us as we dive into her journey from dealing with seasonal depression to becoming a self-care advocate and nervous system health enthusiast. KEY TAKEAWAYS:The impact of nervous system health on our daily livesPractical tools for emotional well-beingThe transformative power of Dr. David Hawkins' Map of Consciousness.Mentorship’s role in personal growth and self-discoveryWhy regular practice and self-care routines are essential for lasting changeHow understanding the polyvagal theory can help you manage stressABOUT GUEST:Dentist by profession and a self-development nerd by passion. We’re debt-free (mortgage included) and I’ve scaled back to working 12 hours per week. I’m deeply passionate about financial freedom, time freedom, and emotional freedom. I am endlessly fascinated by how we can shift ourselves internally, and radically change our perceptions and experiences. Much of our interaction with the world around us is filtered through the lens of our (often negative) mental chatter. Through a combination of medical knowledge, tools for nervous system regulation, and a lot of trial and error, I’ve drastically improved my baseline mood and have teachable tools to return to it. If any small thing I’ve learned helps someone else or builds belief, that’s a win!WHERE TO FIND:Website: https://grounded-now.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grounded.now.with.dr.jen/WHERE TO FIND CHRISTA:Website: https://www.christabiegler.com/Instagram: @anti.inflammatory.nutritionistPodcast Instagram: @lessstressedlifeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lessstressedlifeLeave a review, submit a questions for the podcast or take one of my quizzes here: ****https://www.christabiegler.com/linksEPISODE SPONSOR:A huge shoutout to Jigsaw Health for sponsoring this episode!
