TABOO

Originally recorded December 17th, 2025. Published in spring of 2026. Some important aspects of coming out of this experience intact.

Originally recorded November 12, 2025. Published in spring of 2026. Well friends, it's just gotten crazier! How do we deal with it all?

As per the NEW poddy format, I'll be releasing episodes I've been recording but haven't had the capacity to edit/add the intro. I hope you enjoy this new "raw" style of pod.In this episode, recorded February 23rd 2026, I want to talk about so-called "virtue signalling" and the weaponization of therapy speak.

A lil bonus episode I recorded March 22nd 2026 for SPRING! Like the sun shining through the collective fog, a little hope for humanity in this episode :)Enjoy!

Well friends, I've finally decided to publish an episode!Sorry for the wait and more about that in this episode where I talk about why it's taken me so long to upload (and yes it has to do with a simplified format to the poddy that will hopefully mean more regular episodes).I also talk about why our approach to healing trauma is part of the problem ... and what we can do instead.Enjoy the episode.xo,Jenn

In this episode I dive into the liminal - what happens when our dreams die and honouring the dead.

In this episode I wanted to share some of my own Big Red Flags for recognizing and avoiding toxic spiritual practices (and practitioners) and how to better hone our sense of unapologetic trust (in ourselves).

In this episode I'm talking about the current state of the world and why maybe our current state of mental health is a totally valid experience - one perhaps we shouldn't be so quick to medicate (or meditate) away.

Therapy is a good thing right? Then how come after over 100 years of therapy, we seem to be more lonely, isolated, disconnected, anxious, and depressed? Exploring and asking questions about the world of self help.

In today's episode I break down the Myth of Normal ... why we are so damn attached to the idea & where did "normal" even come from?

Limiting beliefs? Fear limiting you from living "your best life"? Well ... maybe not. Maybe you're just an ethical human with a healthy conscious.

Getting beneath the current of what's "good", "bad", "appropriate", unethical. There is a lot more that lies under this conversation besides shame & blame, and why do we feel the need to appropriate? Resources mentioned in this episode: Kimberly Ann Johnson Interview w/Stephen Jenkinson

We need to talk about Death - in a culture that denies, or views death as a disease we will one day find a cure for. This is a juicy & necessary episode and we dive deep. Enjoy. Resources: ~ Stephen Jenkinson’s book Die Wise ~ Griefwalker Documentary

Get ready for this rant style episode where we get into the core of discontent in our society (and what the hell we can do about it). Also, in this episode, I say "community" a lot. lol.

The episode I was scared to record (for real) but is necessary to share. Because if not now, when?

In today's episode, exploring this narrative that your sense of "worth" is at the core of how much or how little money you make. Let's dissolve more of this manifestation BS, shall we? Enjoy, Jenn

In this episode, I get real about shame (this is the TABOO podcast after all) and a few of the sneaky ways our subconscious programming comes from internalized shame ... and of course, what it means to be a "good" person, and environmentalism. It's a ride. Hop on!

What makes someone or something legit, or gives them credibility? Has social media killed credibility? Let's chat ...

One of the biggest causes of discontent and anxiety in our society today? That you're not "living your purpose", that you're not "living the life you're supposed to live". Let's explore, shall we?

This episode was inspired by some pretty common & dark themes I see perpetuated by social media "influencers" as "healthy". Trigger warning: diet culture, body shame, & orthorexia.

In this episode we explore shadow work & perfectionism through a different lens. What if we like being bad? Shame, guilt, emotional kink, & our love for all things "bad" for us.

In this episode, I challenge the popular narrative in the coaching industry about creating & growing a business as a path of personal development. Is this really a good idea? Or a toxic one? Listen & decide for yourself.

Storytime! I mentioned my own personal story in the last episode about fucked up coaching dynamics and how I would share my own story in it's own episode. Here it is: My experience, reflections, healing, regrets, bitterness, and taking responsibility. I hope you enjoy, Jenn

I have A LOT to say about the Coaching Industry, but we're going to start with this: Most spiritual (and other) coaching programs are a container for the COACH to work out their own subconscious shit while getting paid (by you, their client) for it. Let's talk about it. Post I'm referring to found on my Facebook profile (from June 28th 2024): https://www.facebook.com/jenn.plotnikoff

In today's episode I talk about the most underrated and most desired state of being - Being Content. Enjoy this week's episode about my secret weapon to feeling enoughness, good about myself, my life, and being ok in this crazy world I'm a part of.

Open yourself to the Universe, to Abundance, open your heart ... can you feel it? Doesn't it feel sooo good? Or does it really? Let's talk about why this concept of "cracking ourselves open" might be more problematic than helpful or possibly even hazardous to our safety and wellbeing! Rampant in the self-help space, from yoga heart openers, to "abundance" coaching and practices, let's break this down and see what's really happening underneath it all.

In this episode, I get intimate and read you a transmission from my personal journal - a piece that truly gives this podcast name - TABOO - justice. I hope you enjoy! xo, jenn

Lilith is about to move into the final & karmic 29th degree of Virgo before she moves into 00⁰ Libra on June 29th 2024. In honour of the Lilith energy, this is a transmission about Her, the Dark Feminine, and the archetype of the Whole Woman. I talk about the TABOO of pleasure, I talk about what it means to be truly resilient & "unfuckable with". This episode covers a lot of ground. I hope you enjoy. xo, jenn EvaOh's Podcast I reference: https://open.spotify.com/show/1hd6xpLbxkClyv5poqUxy2?si=0610f9a9597440ee

More and more we are told that going "no contact" and cutting off "toxic people" from our lives is the ultimate act of self care - but is it really? In this episode we dive into the nuance and complexity of difficult relationships including my own experience with going no contact, and evolving reconciliations with my own challenging relationships.

In this episode we get into the topic of manifestation and the why and how this concept has been misconstrued & appropriated by capitalism. Plus why you don't need to take another course learning how to manifest because you don't need someone to tell you what you already know how to do.

In this episode I talk about the growing divide in our culture, the need to be right being more important than the need to understand, and why we need to do something about it.
