Listen Man Podcast

It is May, which is Mental Health Awareness Month. This month, I'm highlighting topics which are common to us all, but with a twist of sharing my own personal experience. Being more personal allows you to be more vulnerable, which is one of the pillars I've built my coaching upon. In order to encourage more vulnerability around mental health, I am starting with leading by example. As always, please share with anyone who may need to know that they are loved and that there is support to be found.Visit listenman.com and click on the blue hyperlink to work with me towards a better you---you deserve it

Meet Jacqueline Putegnat!Jacqueline is a Master Reiki Healer, intuitive guide, and the voice behind the Spoken from the Stars podcast who I met a local Charleston brunch spot in February. She pulled some Tarot cards upon my curiosity as I discussed my ambitions with my life coaching business and personal move to California here in 2026. After my read, we carried on with stimulating conversation which revealed many similarities and an obvious need for more conversations! (Jacqueline is very interesting and has an amazing perspective on health + wellness so I couldn't let that pass me by!!)This is the first of many upcoming collaborations that Jacqueline and I have in store! In this episode, we find ourselves reviewing our initial meeting, and how both Tarot and Reiki therapy are powerful tools towards maintaining a healthy body, mind, and soul.Follow her podcast @Spokenfromthestars on Spotify for more of her work!
