Final episode: This Isn't an Ending, It's an Evolution Jan 22, 2026

Show notes

I want to share something honestly, not as an announcement, but as a conversation.

This podcast has been a meaningful part of my life and, I know, a quiet companion for many of you. It's helped create awareness, language, and reflection around the inner work so many women are doing.

And lately, I've been listening more closely, to myself and to the women I serve. What I've come to understand is this; we don't need more content. We need more connection.

In this final episode, I talk about why I'm closing this chapter of the podcast, what this season has taught me, and why conversation - not consumption - is where deeper healing happens.

This isn't about loss. It's about evolution.

If you've been walking alongside me here and want to stay connected as things unfold, joining my newsletter is the best place to do that. I'll also continue sharing reflections on social media.

Thank you for being part of this chapter. It's meant more than you know.

Self-guided Practices to Increase Your Self-Worth Nov 27, 2025

Show notes

In this deeply personal episode, Joree shares the mindfulness practice that truly transformed her life, lovingkindness, or metta. Rooted in Buddhist meditation, this heart-opening practice offers a path out of low self-worth, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment, and into self-confidence, self-compassion, and deeper connections to yourself and others. Joree reveals how repeating the simple phrases "May I be strong, may I be confident, may I be capable" became the foundation for healing her inner critic, rebuilding her self-concept, and transforming her relationships, first with herself, then with her daughters, and even with people she struggles with. You'll learn how to personalize this timeless practice, understand the neuroscience behind why it works, and discover how loving softens shame, nurtures forgiveness, and opens the door to true self-acceptance.

How to Practice Gratitude without the Toxic Positivity Nov 13, 2025

Show notes

Every year near Thanksgiving, Joree gets practical about gratitude - beyond seasonal clichés and without bypassing what's hard. You'll learn how to work with your brain's negativity bias, use neuroplasticity to "take in the good," and practice gratitude that deepens presence, resilience, and connection, especially in relationships. Joree also shares favorite tools from her book A Year of Gratitude (365 daily prompts and practices), the "one thing, five reasons" exercise, and a simple guided practice for receiving appreciation so it actually lands. If you've worried that gratitude means ignoring the storm, this conversation shows you how to acknowledge the storm and feel the rainbow when it comes - no spiritual bypass required.

Stop the Spiral: Real-Time Tools for Self-Compassion and Boundaries Oct 30, 2025

Show notes

This episode goes deeper into two pillars of healing: quieting your inner critic and practicing genuine self-compassion. Joree breaks down how harsh self-talk can sometimes masquerade as "motivation," how to spot whose voice you're actually hearing inside your mind whenever your inner critic gets loud, and what to do in the exact moment you start spiraling. You'll learn a simple real-time interrupt-and-reframe method, a three-times-daily self check-in that builds awareness with compassion (not judgment), and how boundaries, nervous-system regulation, and reframing shame open the door to lasting change. Expect practical language you can use immediately - at work, in relationships, and with yourself - so you can swap self-abandonment for self-support and become the kind of inner ally you've always needed.

Boundaries as Self-Love: The Missing Pillar of Self-Compassion Oct 16, 2025

Show notes

Self-compassion isn't just "being nice to yourself" - it's a trainable skill that rewires how you relate to pain, shame, and stress. In this episode, Joree breaks down Kristin Neff's three pillars - mindfulness, common humanity, and kindness - and expands them with two game-changers: values-based boundaries and letting go of what no longer serves you. You'll learn how to combat the fear of emotional "backdraft," the power of shifting how you name things to yourself, such as saying "I'm experiencing anxiety right now," vs "I am anxious" and how embodying self-compassionate postures (i.e. hand-on-heart, heart-opener, warrior stance, and even a self-hug) can actually help self-regulate in the moment. Joree also walks you through simple loving-kindness phrases you can personalize until you actually believe them. If your inner critic has been running the show, this episode gives you practical, compassionate tools to turn the volume down on that inner critic and how to turn up the volume on your worthiness.

The Power of Befriending Your Inner Critic Oct 06, 2025

Show notes

We're kicking off October with a truth bomb: your inner critic isn't the enemy—it's a clumsy protector with terrible delivery. In this episode, Joree unpacks how that harsh voice keeps you stuck in perfectionism, comparison, fear, and shame, and shows you how to pause, get curious, and rewire it into a compassionate ally. Drawing on mindfulness, research-informed practices (hat tip to Kristin Neff), and real-life examples, you'll learn how to turn down the volume on self-criticism so you can turn up authenticity, boundaries, and embodied joy.

Living True, Living Fully: The Path to Authenticity and Abundance Sep 18, 2025

Show notes

In the final episode of a 3-part series delving into a powerful, transformative framework, Joree will walk you through the final 2 steps: authenticity and abundance. After awakening to possibility, building awareness, and stepping into alignment, you're now ready to live from your truest self and step fully into a mindset of enoughness. We explore how authenticity frees us from people-pleasing, empowers us to set healthy boundaries, and allows us to live from the inside out rather than by others' expectations. Finally, it's Joree's assertion that the inevitable outcome of doing the work of the first 4 steps is abundance; living a life that is full and expansive. She explores abundance, not as financial wealth, but as a state of gratitude, possibility, opportunity and fulfillment that naturally flows when we live as our truest, highest self. If you have the deep knowing that there is more to your life, and you are ready to do the work to create the change you are seeking, then this episode will inspire you in the what and how to Journey Forward so that you can live in a courageous, mindful way that leads to freedom, self-trust, and joy.

From Tight in a Bud to Blossoming Aug 07, 2025

Show notes

Inspired by the quote from Anaïs Nin, "And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom," this episode invites you into the heart of what it truly means to Journey Forward. Joree shares the emotional, spiritual, and psychological process of creating lasting change - not by needing to necessary overhaul your entire life, but by beginning to reclaim your truth, rewrite old outdated stories you've been in a habit of living by, and taking aligned, intentional steps forward. In addition to learning some practical tools, along with her personal story, Joree offers a single, but powerful question to consider as the first step in your ongoing self-exploration. If you're ready to step into the version of yourself that is craving to emerge, this episode is for you.
