She Rises Through It: Self-Leadership, Becoming & Growth for Women in Transition

What if the pivots in your life and business are not setbacks but the very thing guiding you toward purpose?In this honest solo episode, I share my thoughts just days before flying to Costa Rica to host 11 women on retreat. One year ago, I was there searching for clarity and healing. Now, I’m returning as a retreat host, entrepreneur, and someone who chose to keep going even when things felt uncertain.I open up about the emotional rollercoaster of my first year in business, taking a job that drained me, realizing stability without alignment was costing me too much, and why quitting the wrong path was one of the best decisions I made. I also share how pivots can become the very thing that moves you forward.I also break down my five-phase strategy process for helping brands and women reconnect with who they are, clarify their message, and build something meaningful in a world where authenticity matters more than ever.In This Episode, We Talk About:Why the first year of business can feel messy and uncertainHow burnout can be a sign that something needs to changeWhy quitting the wrong job is not failureHow pivots can lead you closer to purposeWhy you should never give up on what you’re buildingThe 5 Phases I Use to Build Authentic Brands:Phase 1: Brand Audit & Deep DiscoveryPhase 2: Positioning & MessagingPhase 3: Visual Identity & DirectionPhase 4: Website Strategy & Content BlueprintPhase 5: Growth Strategy & Content ThemesYou do not need to have everything figured out.

When everything feels blocked, it might not be resistance. It might be something deeper.This episode almost didn’t happen, and honestly, that’s what makes it even more meaningful.In this conversation, I sit down with Aline Hoss and we go beyond strategy, business tactics, and surface-level success. We talk about surrender, faith, purpose, and what it really looks like to build a business with God at the center. This is for anyone who feels stuck, blocked, or like something is holding them back but can’t quite explain why.Aline Hoss and I talked about: • What it looks like to truly surrender control in life and business • Why success, money, and achievement can still feel empty • Building a business as ministry, not just for income • How to recognize when resistance is spiritual, not just circumstantial • Trusting God’s timing instead of forcing your own plans • Discovering your God-given gifts and actually using them • Why obedience matters more than having everything figured outIf this episode spoke to you, don’t just leave it here.Take a moment today to pause, reflect, and ask yourself what God might be trying to show you in this season.And if you know someone who’s been feeling stuck, blocked, or questioning their direction, send this episode to them. It might be exactly what they need to hear right now.Connect with AlineInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/alinehoss/Website: https://www.alinehoss.com/---If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31---Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

What if your health journey was never meant to be about punishment?In this episode of She Rises Through It, I sit down with Kayla Freeman for a real and honest conversation about women’s health, body image, fitness, hormones, motherhood, and what it actually looks like to pursue wellness in a sustainable way.Kayla shares her personal journey from feeling out of place in traditional fitness spaces to building a lifestyle rooted in strength, consistency, and self-respect, not restriction. We talk about the diets we’ve tried, the pressure women carry around food and body image, and how easy it is to fall into all-or-nothing thinking when it comes to health.We also get into a deeper conversation around hormonal imbalance, cortisol, postpartum health, sleep, inflammation, and peptides, and what it’s looked like for both of us to navigate wellness in real life, especially in seasons of motherhood, stress, and healing.This episode is a reminder that health is not about chasing a smaller version of yourself. It’s about learning how to support the body you live in now, one small choice at a time.If you’ve ever felt stuck in your wellness journey, overwhelmed by all the noise, or frustrated that “doing all the right things” still doesn’t feel like enough, this conversation is for you.In this episode, we talk about:Kayla’s journey with health, fitness, and discipline and how it evolved over timeThe truth about body image, diet culture, and why fitness shouldn’t feel like punishmentHormones, postpartum changes, stress, and what it feels like to be “out of sync” in your bodyThe difference between quick fixes and sustainable wellness including peptides, recovery, and lifestyle habitsHow to start small, stay consistent, and build a supportive community without comparisonA few favorite reminders from this conversation:Your health journey does not have to start with shameSustainable wellness is built through small, consistent choicesYou do not need to “earn” movement or foodStrength matters, especially as women ageHealing takes time, and that does not mean you are failingCommunity can change everything---If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

Some of the biggest lessons I’ve learned about leadership, love, and growth didn’t come from business. They came from my children.In this episode, I reflect on how motherhood has challenged me, stretched me, and taught me things I didn’t even realize I needed to learn. From slowing down, to advocating, to leading with more intention, I’ve seen how much wisdom exists in the way children live, love, and show up as themselves.I also share honestly about the pressure I’ve felt to prove myself, the expectations I’ve carried, and how I’ve had to step back and recognize where I wasn’t fully living what I was teaching.This conversation is about learning to lead differently. Not from pressure or performance, but from authenticity, awareness, and trust in your own path.In this episode, I talk about:• The lessons children teach about leadership, love, and authenticity• How motherhood reveals patterns you don’t always see in yourself• The pressure to prove yourself and meet external expectations• Why slowing down is necessary for real growth• Creating safe spaces where people can learn, make mistakes, and be themselves• Letting go of the idea that there is only one “right way” to grow or leadYou don’t have to follow the same path or meet the same standards as everyone else.There is no one way to lead, to grow, or to build something meaningful. The more you allow yourself and others to be different, the more space you create for real connection, creativity, and growth.Sometimes the best thing you can do is step back, observe, and learn from the simple moments right in front of you.---If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31---Support the showSupport the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

Some days don’t come with a plan. This episode is one of them.In this episode, I share a small moment from my morning that turned into a deeper reflection about life, decisions, and the pressure to fit into boxes that were never meant for us.A simple moment with a box of Q-tips falling across the floor made me think about how often we try to control outcomes, avoid messes, and follow paths we believe we’re supposed to take. But life rarely unfolds that neatly.This conversation is a reminder that growth can feel uncertain, chaotic, and imperfect. Sometimes the mess isn’t something to fix. Sometimes it’s the moment that reminds you that you were never meant to fit the box in the first place.In this episode, I talk about:Why life rarely follows the path we expectThe pressure to meet societal standards and external expectationsHow everyday moments can reveal deeper lessons about ourselvesLearning to trust your own path instead of copying someone else’sWhy slowing down can be more powerful than pushing harderNot every path needs to be perfectly planned.Sometimes the mess, the pivots, and the unexpected moments are exactly what help you realize you’re not meant to live inside someone else’s box.---If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31---Support the showSupport the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

​​If you feel burnt out, resentful, or disconnected from yourself, it’s not because you’re doing too much. It’s because you’ve been operating from an identity that no longer fits.In this episode, we talk about a kind of burnout that doesn’t come from a packed calendar but from overfunctioning, emotional labor, and managing everyone else’s comfort while slowly abandoning your own needs. The kind of burnout that happens while life still looks successful on the outside.This conversation explores how survival identities form, why they work for a season, and how they eventually become the very thing that exhausts you. We unpack why resentment is a warning sign, why being “the strong one” can turn into isolation, and why leadership requires disappointing people instead of staying likable.In this episode, I talk about:How survival identities form in high-functioning women and why they are rewarded by culture, family, and workWhy overfunctioning creates safety and control at first, but eventually becomes the source of exhaustion and resentmentHow being the “reliable, emotionally mature one” trains your nervous system to suppress needs instead of lead with truthWhy resentment is not a character flaw, but a signal that responsibility has crossed into self-abandonmentHow leadership requires releasing likability, approval, and the need to be understoodKey Takeaways:Burnout often comes from carrying identities that no longer fitOverfunctioning feels responsible, but slowly erases self-trustResentment signals misaligned responsibility, not failureLeadership requires tolerating misunderstanding instead of correcting itYou can choose alignment without betraying yourselfYou don’t rise after it.You rise through it.—-If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31---Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

“Am I still here, or am I slowly losing myself inside everything I’m responsible for?”This episode is a quiet, honest reflection on the season where life looks full and meaningful, yet something feels slightly disconnected. Not a breakdown. Not a crisis. Just the subtle tension of holding a lot while trying not to lose yourself in the process.Building a brand, a family, a marriage, a mission. This conversation explores what happens when responsibility, visibility, and expectations begin to shape identity. It continues the thread from last week’s episode with Renee and centers on self trust. Not confidence. Not motivation. Self trust in the moments where life gets complicated and decisions feel exposed.In this episode, I talk about:• The quiet signs of losing yourself while building a full life • Why recalibration feels like tension, not clarity or rest • How identity becomes tied to performance, roles, and being understood • The nervous system response to change and being misunderstood • Why managing perception creates more exhaustion than the work itself • The difference between joy and force in decision making • How motherhood, marriage, brand, and mission pull from the same emotional bandwidthTakeaway:• You cannot grow fully while managing perception at the same time • Recalibration is not about doing less or quitting what you love • Awareness comes before clarity, motivation, or change • Joy feels grounded, even when it is challenging • Force feels tight, heavy, and driven by expectation • Staying connected to yourself is part of sustainable growthIf you’ve been feeling tired, stretched, or quietly questioning your pace, you’re not behind. You’re becoming. And this season of recalibration may be the most important work you do.—-If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31---Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

“Do you actually like yourself? Not who you’re becoming… but you.”In this episode of She Rises Through It, I sit down with Renee Stribbell, a wife, mother, business owner, and coach who speaks honestly about womanhood, motherhood, and the messy middle. Renee shares her personal journey of struggling with self-worth, people-pleasing, and tying her value to performance, until that way of living became unsustainable.Together, we unpack how worth gets shaped by approval, productivity, and perfection, and what it really looks like to reclaim self-trust from the inside out. This conversation is deeply human, practical, and for the woman who is tired of proving herself and ready to come home to who she already is.In this episode, Renee and I talk about:Why many women tie their worth to being “good enough” for othersHow fear of judgment shows up in motherhood, business, and decision-makingThe difference between self-worth and performance (and how burnout exposes it)The question that shifted everything: “Do you like yourself?”How the unconscious mind keeps us “safe” through habits like self-criticismPractical ways to build self-trust through small actions and safe supportA healthier approach to failure: learning without shame and continuing anywayIf you’ve been stuck in the in-between, craving confidence but still feeling messy, this episode is your reminder that worth is not something you earn.

If January didn’t flip a magical switch for you, if you don’t feel behind but you don’t feel fired up either, nothing is wrong with you.In this episode, I’m talking to the woman who has been holding it all together, who’s built something meaningful, and who’s starting to feel a quiet internal shift she can’t ignore anymore.I’m sharing what it looks like to move through a recalibration season, not burnout, not a breakdown, but a grounded, honest slowing down. We talk about learning how to progress without panic, how misalignment often whispers instead of screams, and why January is not a performance month.This is a reminder that calm doesn’t mean you stopped, it means your nervous system finally did.In this episode, I talk about:The struggles many of us are quietly carrying:Feeling neutral, unmotivated, or disconnected at the start of the new yearMoving through life without urgency but questioning if something is “wrong”Being capable of doing a lot while feeling uninspired or misalignedPushing through exhaustion, body signals, and nervous system overloadCarrying pressure to perform, produce, or prove instead of slowing downWhat I’m doing instead (and what you can try too):Naming this season as recalibration, not burnout or failure.Letting calm exist without trying to fix it.Paying attention to my body’s signals, especially tension, numbness, and fatigue.Allowing progress to look lighter.Using January to listen instead of perform.Stopping the habit of doing everything alone, and choosing support, structure, and community while I recalibrateIf something in your body softened while listening,if you felt seen, understood, or quietly validated, trust that. You don’t need to rush or decide anything today.Just know this: recalibration doesn’t require force, and you don’t have to do it alone.Until next time 🤍—-If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31---Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

Before you plan 2026 or set new goals, this episode invites you to pause.Not because you are doing it wrong, but because most women do not fail their goals. They fail to become the person required to sustain them.This conversation explores why planning without reflection leads to burnout, misalignment, and self-abandonment. Especially for women navigating full lives, shifting seasons, and growing responsibility.Rather than focusing on another plan, this episode centers on truth, identity, and learning how to return to yourself when life interrupts your expectations.In this episode, we talk about: • Why most goals fail because of misalignment, not lack of discipline • The problem with the “new year, new me” mindset • Why reflection is leadership, not regression • How your nervous system impacts consistency • Why missing a day is not failure and pivoting is not weakness • What it really means to build capacity before expansionThis episode is for women who are done forcing growth and are ready to build a life that feels aligned, sustainable, and honest.—-If this episode stirred something in you and you feel ready to stop waiting for the perfect time, I am offering a Day One commitment bonus for women who choose alignment now.This is not something I am promoting publicly.

If you have been feeling emotionally exhausted this Christmas season, even when your life looks good on the outside, this episode is for you.This is not the kind of exhaustion that comes from doing too much. It is the kind that shows up when you have been living inside a version of yourself that no longer fits who you are becoming.This episode is shared as a letter for women in transition. For those who feel disoriented not because they are lost, but because the life they once built no longer matches the person they are becoming.In this episode, we explore:✨ Why emotional exhaustion is often a sign of misalignment, not burnout✨ How the Christmas season exposes nervous system overwhelm and emotional labor✨ Why performing joy, gratitude, and strength leads to deeper fatigue✨ What the messy middle really means in seasons of personal growth✨ How self-leadership is built before clarity, confidence, or certainty✨ The connection between nervous system regulation, presence, and identity shifts✨ Why slowing down can feel unsafe for high-functioning women✨ How the body communicates truth before the mind understands itI also share personal stories from this season, including navigating parenting young children, redefining what Christmas truly means, writing a letter instead of buying a gift, and recognizing how pressure often exists only in our own projections.Above all, this is an invitation to release performance. To stop rushing your becoming. To honor the truth that you do not owe anyone a version of yourself you have already outgrown.You are not behind. You are not failing. You are becoming.And you do not have to perform your way there.If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness:  https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31📨 Join the email list: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/contact----Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

If you’ve been feeling more emotional lately, more tired, more reactive, more aware that something in your life doesn’t fit anymore, you’re not falling apart. You’re in transition.I recorded this episode in the heart of the holiday season, when the pressure to hold everything together is high and reflection tends to surface whether we ask for it or not. Especially for women who are becoming someone new while still carrying real life.In this episode, I’m breaking down why the messy middle isn’t a problem to fix but the exact season where self-leadership is built.You’ll hear me talk about: • Why what feels like burnout is often misalignment, not failure • Why motivation disappears during seasons of growth, even when you’re doing everything “right” • How self-trust and leadership are formed before clarity, confidence, or the next chapter makes senseThis conversation is for women in transition, those balancing motherhood, healing, business, identity shifts, and real life, who are ready to stop waiting for permission and start leading themselves forward with integrity.I also share honestly about navigating grief, family medical complexities, old hustle patterns resurfacing, and what it’s looked like for me to reclaim my power without rushing my becoming. This episode was recorded in Minnesota and reflects the real, lived experience of building capacity before expansion.If this episode resonates, here are a few aligned ways to continue your journey:✨ Rise & Reground: The Costa Rica Experience: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026I created this retreat for women in transition who are ready to slow down, regulate their nervous systems, reconnect to their bodies, and build leadership capacity before expansion.🌿 Pioneer Pam Tinctures:  https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFThese have been part of my grounding rituals, especially the Phytotox Anti-Aging Line, supporting calm, healthy, radiant skin during emotionally demanding seasons.⚡ Bioactive Precision Peptides by Make Wellness:  https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31I use these for sustainable energy, recovery, clarity, and resilience—without burnout or adrenaline💌 Join My Email List: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/contactThis is where I share what I’m learning in real time, what I’m building behind the scenes, and what it actually looks like to lead yourself through transition—without noise or pressure.You are not behind.You are becoming.And self-leadership is built right here, in the messy middle.Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

If you’ve been feeling weighed down by comparison, stuck in imposter syndrome, or questioning your place in the world as you step into a new season… this episode is going to feel like an exhale you didn’t realize you needed.When I started this show, I was navigating motherhood, burnout, identity loss, and the quiet ache of feeling behind. I didn’t know who I was becoming, only that the woman I used to be no longer fit. Podcasting became the space where I found my voice again… and where thousands of women realized they weren’t walking through their messy middle alone.Now, 29 episodes later, this mic has taught me more about identity, purpose, and becoming than any course, job title, or roadmap ever could. And today’s episode is one of the deepest and most important I’ve shared.Inside, we talk about: • Why comparison is actually an identity clue, not a flaw • Why imposter syndrome shows up right before your breakthrough • The messy middle no one talks about • Nervous system grounding through guided breathwork • Journaling prompts that reveal the woman you’re becoming • How to honor your timing instead of judging it • Why 2026 is the year of embodiment, alignment, and risingThis is not just another episode, it’s a turning point.A reminder that you are not behind. You are becoming.Supportive Rituals from Today’s EpisodePioneer Pam (MN Mother–Daughter RN Duo): https://pioneerpam.com?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMullein tincture: https://pioneerpam.com/products/mullein-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFElderberry: https://pioneerpam.com/products/elderberry-tincture?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFPhytotox anti-aging: https://pioneerpam.com/products/phytotox-bundle-pre-sale?sca_ref=10153950.2pXEgTTkxcFMake Wellness Precision Peptides: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7Fit, Lean, Hydrated Calm, Restored, Energized, Focused: https://makewellness.com/2D969F9DA7/shopping/item?itemId=46&categoryID=31 Join My Email Community, Where the Deep Identity Work Lives: https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/contactWeekly grounding tools, behind-the-scenes becoming, retreat updates, and notes I don’t share anywhere else.Rise & Reground Costa Rica Retreat (2026 Registration Open): https://www.cydniejocelyn.com/riseandregroundcostarica2026A transformational retreat for women ready to rise, release, and reconnect with who they’re becoming.Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

Are you making decisions from exhaustion, not clarity? This episode details my deeply personal 6-month transformation journey, a quiet reckoning and why I was called to build the Rise and Reground women's retreat, which is the cornerstone of the legacy I am building.This is more than a getaway; it's a strategic, supportive reset designed to regulate your nervous system and give you the space to reclaim your narrative and rise with purpose. I dive into how my own healing journey led me to create this powerful immersive retreat experience in the restorative Nosara Blue Zone, Costa Rica.Inside this episode, we cover:How taking a pause accelerated my own becoming and why women need space to heal deeply.Why the Nosara Blue Zone is the ideal environment for cellular renewal and a full-body nervous system reset.The profound power of being in community and surrounded by women committed to personal power.The strategic design of the experience, combining daily strength movement with chef-prepared meals, supporting optimal body performance (including the benefits of Make Wellness Bioactive Precision Peptides).A look into my 2026 brand evolution, focusing on depth over volume and empowering you to reclaim your voice and rewrite your narrative.The most crucial takeaway: A true legacy isn't built in one decision—it’s built in the follow-through, the recalibration, and the way you choose yourself consistently.This episode is for the woman who knows she’s ready for a shift. It’s not someday—it’s now.

What happens when your voice feels stuck, your throat tightens, and the truth you’ve been holding back starts to rise like waves?In today’s episode, I share a raw moment of working through my throat chakra, the messy middle of silence, fear of “performing perfectly,” and a meditation that revealed a turquoise wave of truth I could no longer ignore.This isn’t about perfection.

This week, I’m opening up about the unexpected hospital stays that shift everything, the unknowns that test your faith, and what it means to advocate for yourself and the ones you love.We’re diving deep into the throat chakra (Vishuddha) — the power of speaking up, finding your voice, and trusting that it carries weight even when the path feels uncertain. If you’ve ever felt lost in the unknown or silenced in your own story, this conversation is for you.Inside the episode, we cover:Why advocacy is an act of love and how to use your voice when you’re tired, scared, or unsureWhat the throat chakra is (location, color, element) and how it shows up in real lifeSigns it’s open vs. blocked, and how to gently rebalance itPractical tools to speak your truth with clarity and compassionShow Notes & PracticesVoice & BreathVoice Exercise: Hum on an exhale; let your voice vibrate through your throat.Speak Your Truth Practice: Each morning, say one honest sentence out loud that you’ve been holding in, even if it’s just to yourself.“Try This Now” Invitation: Put your hand on your throat.

Last week, we sat with deep forgiveness, the kind that feels like a long-held breath finally released. I shared about forgiving my dad after 15 years and embracing honest conversations with my mom. This week, I’m taking that theme further, into legacy, authenticity, and breaking out of the boxes others try to put us in.This is the second time I recorded Episode 13, because the first one… didn’t feel like me. Today’s version is messy, unscripted, and straight from my heart. I talk about forgiving my mom, honoring the legacy I want to leave for my boys, and refusing to live by someone else’s rules or expectations. We dive into women’s empowerment, human connection, and what it means to follow your own path, even when imposter syndrome and self-doubt try to keep you small.And because forgiveness is also about embracing the challenges life gives us, I’m sharing more about our family’s journey with Gould Syndrome, the rare genetic condition my boys and husband live with. Raising awareness and supporting research is part of the legacy I want to build.

Recorded on my iPad, deep in the messy middle because the becoming doesn’t wait for perfect.This episode is a raw reflection on what it means to forgive, to release, and to finally start living. I open up about navigating generational trauma, my complicated relationship with my father, and how my nervous system is finally asking me to slow down, not to fix what’s broken, but to come back home to myself.Because I’m not broken.You’re not broken.We’re just becoming.I’m sharing what’s surfaced through journaling, motherhood, and my somatic healing work, the truth that our bodies remember what our minds try to bury. And the moment we start listening, we begin to belong again.Inside this episode:The real story behind forgivenessHow journaling + breath are helping me release what’s been stored for too longA convo with my mom that cracked something openWhy I’m ditching the word healingReclaiming joy, laughter, and my voice, on my termsJournal Prompt: Write the words you’re not ready to say out loud.

This episode wasn’t planned and maybe that’s the beauty of it.

Who’s navigating motherhood, healing, scheduling doctors’ appointments, reworking business timelines, and still trying to trust herself through it all.We talk about slowing down boldly, walking away from urgency, adjusting when things feel too heavy, and choosing to build something meaningful, not just fast.If you’ve been feeling like you’re not doing enough, I hope this reminds you:You’re not behind.

This one’s short and honest. I’m recording from a family cabin trip, in the middle of real life, kids, doctor appointments, and all the chaos because I still want to show up.This is your reminder: you don’t have to wait for perfect conditions to grow.

We’re getting honest in this one. This episode is all about what it actually takes to grow, not just when everything is calm and aesthetic, but in the real-life moments when doubt, distraction, and old patterns try to pull you back.We’re talking belief.We’re talking resistance.We’re talking about the messy middle and how to move through it with intention.Because let’s be clear: you don’t just wake up one day and feel healed.You have to choose it. Again and again.And if your “why” isn’t strong enough… the bullsh*t will win.We cover:The mindset shift that changed everything for meHow I use Human Design (Emotional Authority) to make decisionsTools to come back to your grounded state (journaling, movement, ritual, and more)A real conversation about thresholds, resistance, and reclaiming beliefJournal Prompts from Today:What belief keeps showing up that holds me back?What’s the truth I want to believe instead?What’s one thing I can do this week to regulate my emotions or feel grounded?Where am I acting from an old pattern?What’s my WHY — and is it strong enough to carry me through discomfort?Website is LIVE!The soft launch of the Cydnie Jocelyn website is officially here: 👉 www.cydniejocelyn.comJoin The Collective, sign up for email updates, and explore what's coming next.Follow along on Instagram for daily rituals, real-life reflection, and community updates:✨ Instagram: @cydniejocelyn✨ Facebook: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective✨ LinkedIn: The Cydnie Jocelyn CollectiveThis isn’t about being perfect.It’s about being real  and rising anyway.Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

This episode is one of those I needed to speak more than script.Over the weekend, a literal storm rolled through, thunder shaking the walls, lightning lighting up the sky and I found myself in the basement, rocking my baby while my boys slept and I stayed wide awake. I felt fear rise in my body, not just from the storm, but from something deeper. A part of me I hadn’t comforted in a long time.Days later, when another kind of fear came up, one rooted in being misunderstood, judged, and silenced, I didn’t shove it down. I went to the mirror. I let myself speak the words I needed to hear as a little girl. I let the tears and anger move through. I reclaimed something I had once given away just to fit in.This episode is about that.The fear.The memory.The voice I gave back to myself.If you’ve ever felt like your emotions were “too much,”If you’ve ever been told to shrink, quiet down, or get over it…This one’s for you.You don’t have to go back to who you were.You’re becoming who you were always meant to be.Come connect and be part of the journey:✨ Instagram: @cydniejocelyn✨ Facebook: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective✨ LinkedIn: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective🌐 Website coming soon, stay tuned right here for updates.Tag me while you’re listening or journaling, I love knowing what’s landing for you.We rise, together. 🤍Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

What happens when you’re healing, building, mothering, and dreaming all at once?You don’t get to pause life to do the inner work. You do it while holding everything else. It’s messy. It’s emotional. It’s beautiful. And you’re not alone in it.In this episode, I’m opening up about how control became my safety net, especially through college, early career, and motherhood and how I’m learning to soften. Not to let everything go, but to stop gripping so tightly.Inside this episode, I share:How the little girl in me took control to keep me safe and how I’m finally learning to hold herWhat it looks like to raise emotionally aware children while also learning emotional regulation myselfThe behind-the-scenes of building this podcast, The Collective, a legacy brand for my kids… while still unraveling generational patterns I didn’t know were thereWhy healing in the messy middle is just as sacred as healing in stillnessThis one is a little raw, a little real, and a big reminder that just because it’s heavy… doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.Journal & Inner Reflection PracticeAfter you listen, I’d love for you to take a few minutes for this check-in. Ground your feet, take a deep breath, and reflect or journal on these:What am I currently holding that no longer belongs to me?Where am I gripping too tightly out of fear or habit?What does my inner girl, the one who just wants to feel safe, need from me right now?How can I honor my pain without identifying with it?What does safe emotional release look like for me today? (Screaming into a pillow? Movement? Crying in the car? Talking to someone I trust?)End with this reminder: “It’s okay to feel this. I don’t have to hold it all alone. I’m doing the work, even when it’s messy.”Come connect and be part of the journey:✨ Instagram: @cydniejocelyn✨ Facebook: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective✨ LinkedIn: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective🌐 Website coming soon, stay tuned right here for updates.Tag me while you’re listening or journaling, I love knowing what’s landing for you.We rise, together. 🤍Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

This episode feels like a journal entry I wasn’t sure I’d ever share.It’s me opening up about the girl I used to be.The one who wanted to be liked.The one who tried to be everything for everyone.The one who never felt fully seen or fully enough.I talk about the stories that shaped me, from trying to fit in as a little girl, to doubting my worth in college, to not feeling lovable in my own marriage for a long time. Even though I was loved deeply.And then postpartum hit.And I unraveled.It’s taken time (and a lot of tears) to finally start seeing myself clearly and to let go of the version of me I built to survive.If you’re in that in-between, between who you were and who you’re becoming, this one’s for you.You’re not broken.You’re not behind.You’re just becoming.Come connect and be part of the journey:✨ Instagram: @cydniejocelyn✨ Facebook: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective✨ LinkedIn: The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective🌐 Website coming soon, stay tuned right here for updates.If this episode hits home, I’d love to hear from you.

This episode is the heart of it all.I’m opening up about the real story behind The Cydnie Jocelyn Collective.The part that was shaped through postpartum, anxiety, hospital visits, burnout, and the quiet unraveling I carried alone for too long.It’s the story of what led me to finally say: enough.In this episode, I share:🌱 What it felt like to lose myself while trying to hold everything together🌱 The moment I hit a wall and decided to build something for women like me🌱 The mission, vision, and values that anchor this movement🌱 Why this space isn’t about perfection, it’s about becomingIf you’ve ever been in a season where your soul feels heavy, where you're surviving more than living, this is for you.You're not alone in it.

This episode isn’t about a dramatic breakthrough, it’s about what comes after. The pause. The “what now” when real life keeps moving but you’re trying to find your footing. I share the daily rituals that help me show up, like journaling without judgment, dancing barefoot, and simply being present with my kids. They’re small deposits, not solutions. But if you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin… maybe start with just 15 minutes. This is what’s helping me, maybe it’ll help you too.Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.

I didn’t plan for this leap. I didn’t even know I needed one, until everything cracked open.In this episode, I share the unraveling that started before I ever landed in Costa Rica — the exhaustion, the anxiety, the overstimulation, and the moment I finally admitted I was no longer okay. I walk you through the breathwork experience that changed my life, the realization that I had been giving my power away for far too long, and the deep clarity that followed.This is not just my story, it’s a mirror for anyone feeling lost, overwhelmed, or on the edge of their own leap.You’ll hear about:The burnout I could no longer ignoreHow a single message triggered a spiralWhat breathwork unearthed that I never expectedAnd the moment I knew I couldn’t go backIf you’ve ever felt like life is asking you to let go of what no longer serves you — this one’s for you.You’re not behind.

This wasn’t just a trip I said yes to,  it was something my heart knew I had to do.In this first episode, I’m showing up raw and real from Costa Rica — sharing how I got here, the panic I felt, and the way this journey cracked me wide open.This isn’t about pretending life is perfect. It’s about being honest in the middle of it, the mental game, the emotional stretch, and the quiet moments where we start to imagine a new beginning.If you’re in the thick of it too… I see you. This is the start of something sacred. And I’m bringing you with me.Support the showThis podcast reflects my personal experience, not professional or medical advice.
