The Balanced Blonde Podcast // Soul On Fire

Ahhh, I have been so excited to share this episode with you guys! Ever since I read Erin Falconer's book How to Break Up With Your Friends, I knew she was a dream guest to have on the show. She is a therapist, best-selling author, a mother, and a wise human when it comes to all things boundaries and navigating friendships as an adult.   This episode isn't just about how to break up with your friends, it is also about how to be a better friend. I learned such valuable information in Erin's book about the science of friendship (and how important it is to our livelihood and wellbeing!), how long it takes to truly become someone's friend, the difference between a friend and a best friend, and how many best friends we can successfully have without spreading ourselves way too thin — or just lying to ourselves!   Erin is the queen of navigating hard conversations, instilling boundaries, standing up for yourself in relationships and also auditing relationships to make sure they are still a good fit in the different ever-evolving stages of our lives. I have to say, this conversation is an absolute favorite of mine and one that I learned a TON from. I will be going back to this convo many times over… and taking notes!   Also… TBB MERCH IS HERE! The Celestial Club Collection has officially landed SO THRILLED! We have: 2 sweatshirts, a tote bag, and 3 mugs that are filled with inspiring phrases, cosmic vibes & high quality magic. I haven't been this excited about a launch in so long. Enjoy, and hashtag #notfromhere on IG when yours arrives! YAY!   Also, check out my new revamped, relaunched BLOG at thebalancedblonde.com! We relaunched on Monday — we now have an interactive starseed quiz, a free guided meditation, a free guide to spiritual awakening, new blog posts, new sorted spots to find the pod episodes + best of the show, + so much more!!

My loves! So thrilled to share our final solo episode of the year with you today… ah!! It feels so good! I love chatting with you guys on the mic. It is my absolute favorite way to connect, not just on the podcast but just in general. This one was very stream of consciousness in the best way — and is chock full of life updates & deep juiciness.   In today's ep we deep dive into: current life updates, the healing I have been doing lately, ketamine therapy, mom guilt (!!!), social media addiction, holiday mantras, how to slow down heading into 2023, & we do an audience Q+A!

We talk about codependency, narcissism, how to set boundaries in work and personal relationships, how to empower yourself to remove toxicity from your life, and how to live free from being a people pleaser.   This is a very special convo and it VERY timely in my life, and I hope it lands at the right time for you, too!

It's on the homepage!    Today's episode with the incredible Theresa Caputo, the world renowned and beloved Long Island Medium, NYT best selling author & OG reality TV star, was purely manifested and did not disappoint. This episode blew me away and is by far one of the most special episodes we have ever done. Hands down, this is so special and so life changing in every way.   In this episode you will hear Theresa channel a dear friend of mine who has passed on — and it is not someone I expected to hear from! What she said and channeled through about him brought me so much peace. Then, she shocked us all by channeling for my producer and that was a moment I will never forget, and was so honored to witness. I cannot wait for you guys to hear this part.   She also talks how to channel, how to open up psychically, where you can find her and get a reading (phone into her show or go see her live!), the harder parts of being psychic, what her life was like before she surrendered her gift to God's plan, and so much more. This episode was so special and just all around inspiring to no end.    We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

There we talk alcohol, motherhood, spiritual practices, how to make money & find value as a Reflector, and beyond.

Welcome to today's bonus episode! I am so thrilled to bring you this conversation with my dear friend Lindsey Wilson, the founder of OWL Venice. If you live in Los Angeles or if you follow any wellness influencers on the gram, you have surely heard of this brand. They make homemade bone broths (and vegan broth!) that has taken the healing world by storm because of its incredible gut health & Ayurvedic balancing properties.   Lindsey started making homemade broth after struggling with her own digestive issues. She infused the broth with seasonal vegetables and medicinal herbs, and removed traditional ingredients like garlic and onions. Not only did these nutrient dense broth elixirs transform her health, but this transformation inspired her to share these creations with her local community.   Lindsey's love for food and wellness, combined with her background in design and marketing, enabled her to launch OWL Venice in 2016. Fast forward to now, and OWL has helped thousands with similar issues through their line of broth elixirs and gut reset programs. I personally found OWL when I was struggling with my own gut health — and I serendipitously ran into Lindsey in Erewhon (of course) where she so kindly helped me figure out my healing path.   Exclusively for The Balanced Blonde Listeners, OWL Venice is offering discount code BLONDE15 at checkout for 15% off your first purchase at owlvenice.com!   We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

I am thrilled to have my dear friend & 3x NYT-Bestselling author Atticus The Poet back on the show today to discuss all things writing, inspiration, love, fame (a.k.a not-fame which is the new kind of fame), his new book, and so much more.

They talk about the story of naming him in this episode which you will not want to miss. ;)   Atticus has a new poetry book out titled LVOE, all about love & the imperfections of love.

Hello and welcome to part TWO of our annual birthday episode! And happy birthday to all of my fellow Libras :) I turned 32 last week! Every year on my birthday, I like to have someone I love come on the show and interview me. It flips the script and just makes for a very interesting, unique and different type of conversation. I used to record these as solos but I think having a dear friend here to ask what they really want to know and to also source audience questions makes this extra fun and special.   Tune into part one here, which we are so excited to share. In that conversation we talk about my spiritual awakening, my gift of seeing faces shape shift, Pleiadians & intergalactic beings (!!), what some of the catalysts were for my spiritual awakening, and beyond.   In part two, we go into the nitty gritty of the near-death experience I had when I was 29, my perspective on eternal souls, embracing being different & the feeling of being misunderstood, matrix glitches, and lots of things my audience doesn't yet know about me. ;)   Krista is an incredible interviewer & she is the host of hit podcast Almost 30, where many of you likely already very much know her! She is also an entrepreneur, tarot deck creator, spiritual teacher, intuitive channel, and expert on the Law of One.     This episode is so special and I am so honored to have one of my best friends in the world hosting! I think she needs to stay on as a host. Come tell us on Instagram if you agree, and tag us if you are listening!   We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

Guys, this episode is THE EPISODE! All of all episodes! We are finally going deep into ketamine therapy — the groundbreaking psychedelic therapy treatment for PTSD, anxiety, depression, rewiring the brain, creating new neural pathways, & beyond. We had to have the world leading expert on ketamine therapy here on the show, Dr. Mike Dow, because he is the go-to and is a wealth of knowledge.   In this episode we discuss my recent ketamine journey with Dr. Dow, which busted my mind wide open and left me with an entirely new perception of reality. This treatment was so incredibly deep and psychedelic, it allowed us to go into fear, panic, trauma, painful memories, past life memories, and beyond and reprocess them together in a safe and highly effective space.    I have done a lot of psychedelics, and this intramuscular treatment with Dr. Dow was the deepest and most beautifully mind blowing experience I have had yet. In this episode we discuss:   what ketamine therapy is & when it first started being used the legality of ketamine therapy & who it is right for the differences between IV, intramuscular, and oral ketamine (plus the differences in therapeutic dosing vs. anesthesia dosing) how ketamine actually makes you feel & what we have both seen on our journeys how incredibly safe ketamine therapy is when done in the proper environment, and we bust common myths about any dangers or fears my own personal journey with ketamine and what I saw and healed from, the panic we went into, and how helpful it is to have a therapist in the room to help guide you the differences between ketamine, psylocibin (mushrooms), ayahuasca & MDMA — why ketamine is great for neural reprogramming & creating new neural pathways how to find a ketamine experience & have this experience for yourself treatment for addiction, depression, chronic illness, PTSD & beyond   We cannot wait for you to listen to this episode, and please let us know on Instagram if you would like to hear a part two!   We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

We are thrilled to have the fabulous Jade Marie on the show today, talking all things holistic skincare, energy healing, and spiritual awakening. We go deep on many topics we also didn't expect to touch on — from Jade's upbringing in the LDS church, to getting married young, overcoming challenges, dealing with her sister's addiction, and finding spirituality out of those challenging times. We talk plant medicine, energetic gifts, and of course… all things skin!   Jade Marie is a skincare guru and the content creator behind her huge platforms on Instagram & YouTube where she is known as JadeyWadey108. She is a holistic medical esthetician, energy healer, and educator with over a decade of hands-on experience. Her background of fine art led to a makeup artistry and a content creation career that took her all over the world, but she was always drawn back to her aesthetics practice. Jade's professional practice includes performing facials on all skin types in all stages of life, honing her skills, testing mainstream and professional skincare products and creating custom blends for each client.   In her signature holistic approach, the 180SkinTM Transformation Technique, Jade combines the clinical results of a med spa with the soul-nurturing aspects of a wellness spa. She incorporates energy and sound healing and ancient stone and gem remedies alongside licensed techniques including sculpting facial massage, HydraFacial, microcurrent, and much more.   We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

This is a cornerstone episode for TBB and blends together all of the very specific, life changing, amazing things that have radically changed and enriched Jordan's life. From her top-read books, to the podcasts she loves & listen to, to the most healing diet that she believes in, to healing modalities broken down in an accessible way, and healers + mentors she looks to for inspiration — this is the go-to episode.   In fact, if you have any questions about TBB as a brand or what type of content that Jordan talks about on the show, this is a fantastic place to begin! This is both a “reintroduction” episode to anyone who is new, and a deep dive for our current listeners. The show is packed with value and juiciness from top to bottom, and includes all of the things that Jordan recommends most and finds herself sharing in her DM's and emails on a daily basis.   With the current societal climate of chronic illness, pain, depression, and overall dissatisfaction with daily life as we know it — these are the tangible and valuable tips and tools that you can add into your life.

Kenzie is the host of the hit podcast ILYSM, the entrepreneur behind her thriving YouTube channel & killer social media platforms, and the founder of the Oh Kind clothing line as well as the KE book club. So of course… we had to talk books in this episode, on top of everything else!   This is a girl talk episode where we go deep on mental health & overcoming struggles with anxiety, and we go light and discuss our mutual favorite TV show (can you guess the show?!), our many mutual fave celeb memoirs and books, and so much more. We also discuss navigating life in your 20's, and hear about Kenzie's rise to YouTube fame at the age of 16.   Kenzie is a wonderful inspiration to all young women looking to live life on their own terms, embrace their inner confidence & fire (she's a Leo — duh!), navigate the rough waters of their early 20's, and start a thriving career at a young age.

Today Jordan is joined by her dear friend & incredible doula — the amazing Patti Quintero. Patti is known in LA as the absolute go-to for all things birth and motherhood. She is loved my mamas, yogis, celebs, and beyond. When it came time for Jordan to find a doula to support her pregnancy & birth journey, it was a no brainer to choose Patti.   In this episode the women discuss everything from Jordan's birth (they get into the nitty gritty — things even Jordan & Jonathan did not yet share!), how Patti became a doula, what a doula even is, the differences between a doula & a midwife, why someone may want to have a doula with them in a hospital birth, home birth vs. hospital birth, and so much more.   Patti is also the founder of UMA mother. It is the culmination of her many years of working with mothers as a teacher, mentor, community leader and birth doula. The focus of UMA offerings is to elevate consciousness and help others live in a more authentic and awakened state. Patti is also a trained Vedic meditation teacher (she recently spent over 100 days in Sedona doing a deep dive training), and her wisdom radiates far and wide.     Resources:   Website: com Store: com/shop Instagram: @thebalancedblonde Pattis' Instagram: @jennazoe Patti's website: UMA Mother   As a thank you to my listeners, Saje is offering everyone a discount to help them top up on their wellness.

I am thrilled to be back for my first solo episode in way too long, and we are going in on all things motherhood, postpartum, and beyond. This episode has been a LONG time coming, and I am elated to share it with you today. It's raw, it's vulnerable and we GO THERE — way into the depths, and back again.   We touch on so many topics in this episode that I have not shared about publicly yet, from my breastfeeding journey, to what it's really like to be a new mom, postpartum anxiety, asking for help and support, the first 40 days & the 4th trimester, sex life postpartum + healing from birth… and then some.   We also do an audience Q&A in this episode and I get to many of your FAQ's which were truly incredible. Thank you so much for being on this wild ride with me. Come tell me your thoughts on Instagram and what you were able to relate to from this episode. And if you are not a parent, then maybe you can use this episode as a resource to support any of your friends or family who are new parents. :)   Please do subscribe, rate & review the show if you feel inspired, and this will enter you to win a *big wellness giveaway* to celebrate the return of the show!    Resources:   Website: com Jordan's email newsletter Store: com/shop Instagram: @thebalancedblonde   Get 10% off your first month at betterhelp.com/BALANCED.   Visit Wellgrovehealth.com and use code BALANCED at checkout for 20% off your first purchase.   Produced by Dear Media.

The OG of spirituality Gabby Bernstein is back on the show today and we are going in. It is always a huge honor to have Gabby on the shows and today is no exception. We flowed into so many different topics, from our postpartum experiences, to Gabby's pregnancy loss and grieving process, her new book Happy Days, her wisdom on inner child healing & Internal Family Systems, and so much more. I do want to leave a trigger warning on the topics of miscarriage, pregnancy loss, and abortion. We cover these topics in this episode and if these topics are sensitive to you, you may want to proceed with caution — although we hope this conversation will make you feel less alone & equipped with the tools to move through whatever you are going through. We also have light chats in this conversation, about astrology, aliens, being cat mamas and boy mamas, and our spontaneous run-in at Whole Foods almost a decade ago!

We are thrilled to have Jane & Byron Younger back on the show today — Jordan's parents! In this episode we get to catch up about all things grandparenthood and how it has been seeing Jordan as a mother. We go there with expectations vs. reality. ;)    We also get into the holistic treatments they love, spiritual elements that Jordan has turned them onto, non-invasive treatments & cosmetic procedures (the people want to know because they are aging in reverse!), money and ego, their greatest lessons learned, favorite memories of Jordan as a child, astrology & Human Design and so much more.    Also Jordan wants to note — in this episode she said that her mom had an Aquarius moon, but she is a SCORPIO moon! So she is, in fact, triple water. And Byron is triple fire!    The most special part of this episode is their love for Atticus, and there is a very special end of episode shoutout to Atticus himself, for him to listen to when he is older. :) This will be a cornerstone episode for life and we are thrilled to release it and have it on the show!   We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

I am out of this world excited that this episode with the fantastic Mystic Michaela finally came to life! We have been discussing it for years (a theme lately, it seems?) & this conversation certainly does not disappoint. Michaela is the first guest ever on TBB to discuss all things aura colors — and she is a true wizard at reading people's auras! This is why she has amassed a global audience, has the most engaged Facebook group we've ever seen, has been on national television to read auras, and beyond.   In this convo we of course discuss aura colors, and we also go deep on all things 5D, starseeds, working with your partner, the MOST engaged Facebook group in the world, and so much more. We talk about the crossovers between aura colors, empaths / HSP's, astrology, and human design. We also talk about the crossovers between indigo auras and indigo children!    I am lucky enough to have Michaela read my aura in this episode, and she also reads Jonathan (my husband), Atticus (my son), and Hudson (my cat — by far my most famous family member…!).   We also do a celebrity quick fire where she gives us the aura juice on celebs from Justin Bieber to Kim Kardashian to Britney Spears to all of the Real Housewives of BH and more.

We are so excited about this episode with incredible intuitive astrologer & spiritual teacher Danielle Paige. This has been such a highly requested conversation from Jordan's audience, and we are so thrilled to finally be able to deliver. This is a deep one all about intuitive astrology, cosmic beings, starseeds, time not being linear, healing from Lyme & mold, finding love, using astrology to find love, and so much more. Danielle also reads Jordan's birth chart in this episode — such a treat!   It is incredible to hear Danielle's backstory in this conversation about hitting rock bottom and finding astrology at the age of 30, how age is just a number and we all find love & partnership when we are meant to, the message behind soul contracts & what they are for, her healing journey (which she doesn't talk about often publicly), and so much more.   We know TBB family loves astrology as much as we do, and it is a true cosmic tool to get to know ourselves and the universe better.

This episode with Monica Berg has been a longtime coming! Jordan & Monica have been talking for years, and this episode is the deep dive on Kabblah you never knew you needed. Or maybe you did know?!   Monica is an international speaker, spiritual thought leader, and author of Fear is Not an Option and Rethink Love and host of the Spiritually Hungry podcast. A self proclaimed “Change Junkie,” Monica is a fresh voice that channels her many years of kabbalistic study along with personal life experiences. Monica shows individuals how to create a life that not only feels like it's working, but most importantly, a life in which they are living and loving as the powerful, fulfilled person they've always wanted to be.   In this episode the women discuss Kabbalah, the intersection of Kabbalah and Judaism, kabbalistic astrology, overcoming grief, how to handle change with grace, and living a life without fear.    We hope you love this episode and cannot wait to hear your feedback!

They talk about timeline hops, synchronicities, conscious friendships, the magic of being in each other's lives, where in the world Kenzie has been (because everyone wants to know!), and most of all – Kenzie's emergence from the dark night of her own soul journey.

Welcome to a new season of The Balanced Blonde // Soul on Fire! Now releasing everything Wednesday with Dear Media. Tune into new episodes June 29th!   Produced by Dear Media.

Can you believe it?! This is my final episode of 2021 and my final podcast before I become a mama! I will be taking some time off after this for the first time ever, and it will be so needed and so nourishing. I hope to inspire you to carve out the same space in your life. That is my main intention — to inspire others to live differently.  In this episode, I dive into your questions and wrap my head around everything that's built up to this exact moment (3rd trimester in "pre-labor" mode in bed). I explain why I'm taking time off to thoroughly soak up this sacred time bonding with my baby, ayurvedic takeaways from "The First Forty Days" (one of the few pregnancy books that I've read during this time), and my intentions as a mother (OMG, so many things). Aside from baby chat, I delve into love languages (can you guess mine?!), astral projections, plant medicine plans post-pregnancy, food combining, and all the juicy TBB stuff we love to talk about. I am so grateful to our Soul On Fire family for holding a safe space for me to be my true, woo woo self. I love you all so much. Thank you for sending your questions, well wishes, and love and light. I can't believe that the next time I'm on the mic, there will be this magical baby boy by my side!  Thanks to https://www.artoftea.com/ (Art of Tea) for sponsoring this episode.

Jordan's dear friend Krista Williams takes a moment away from her own incredible podcast, Almost 30, to slip into an esoteric groove to talk about all things consciousness and community with the Soul on Fire fam. We touch on it all, from sixth-dimensional consciousness and The Law of One, to her evolving relationship with alcohol, and finding food freedom during a transformative trip to Ibiza where she sampled the Celestial Lifestyle for herself (the results are insane!). Shape shifting beyond!  As a self-identified wanderer, Krista left her "old" life in Ohio and manifested a soul-aligned community in Los Angeles and beyond, with Almost 30. Now, she's creating a book club and tarot deck while always unpacking the teachings from The Law of One, one of many spiritual texts that have profoundly affected her.  We talk ditching dieting to find what works for you, plant-based magic, living in the 6D, lessons from The Law of One, honeymoon manifestations, conscious friendship, deep awakening, the commitment to growing deeper everyday, and so much more. This is a good one, deep and juicy beyond.  If you've been calling in deeper connections in your life, then this conversation – filled with relatable advice, inspirational quotes, and teachings – is a reminder that you're not alone on your journey.  Thanks to https://beekeepersnaturals.com/blonde.

If you can't get enough memes on your timeline, then you'll love this episode with author, poet, meme artist, and creative guide, James McCrae. You've probably already laughed and shared posts from his popular Instagram page, @wordsarevibrations, where he creates culturally relevant, thought-provoking, hilarious poems, and memes.  In this conversation, James opens up about how technology and spirituality support his creativity, where he strives to find the perfect balance of visuals and the written word. For James, the technology portal is not limited to our screen obsession. He shares his holistic and nature-integrated vision on how technology can build a better planet for the future.  We also dive into how James evolved his creative voice alongside his spiritual awakening, his healing with plant medicines, high vibrational arts, and so much more!! True to his brand, James's words really do serve the highest vibrations, and his new book, “How to Laugh in Ironic Amusement During Your Existential Crisis,” pulls off the impossible feat of meeting us where we're at while also inviting us to reimagine a new direction.  Thanks to https://www.artoftea.com/ (Art of Tea) for sponsoring this episode.

I recorded this solo episode in full cozy cocoon & nesting mode, resting in bed while we wait for baby Albrecht to arrive (OMG, I am 37 weeks!!) and soaking up the magic of the holiday season before I embark on maternity leave (details in this episode). I felt called to do another intimate Q&A and share everything I've learned and integrated during this process and how spirituality and healing have come full circle during my pregnancy. I dive into all the questions you sent over Instagram and talk about everything Soul on Fire, reflecting on my healing journey with Lyme, recent reflections on motherhood, giving birth, a spiritual deep dive, PLEIADIANS (of course), starseed magic, and the evolution of my brand -- and where it is headed.

Trailblazing nutritionist, wellness entrepreneur, celeb nutrition guru, and spiritual powerhouse, Kimberly Snyder, is back on the show to discuss her newest, most soul-aligned book, "You Are More Than You Think You Are."   If you're already familiar with Kimberly's work – and her five incredible best-sellers – you may be surprised to find out this one deviates from food and is all about nourishing your soul, finding stillness in the in-between moments, and magnetizing what you want without resistance. Kimberly invites us to live in a world where we're not trapped in negative thought spirals or competing with everyone else on social media or living SMALL. Instead, her practical advice and thought exercises rooted in the ancient teachings of guru Paramahansa Yogananda, help you overcome fear blocks, tap into your inner warrior and get to a place where you can manifest your soul's wants beyond the ego.  She opens up about her process shifting into her most authentic expression, how strengthening her intuition led to career breakthroughs, sacred partnership, and so much more! It's also a candid chat between two dear friends… Jordan cannot help but see Kim's face shape shifting throughout the episode!!  This very special book and chat gives you the spiritual roadmap to tap into your own inner warrior and create the success, joy, and fulfillment that's awaiting you.

Dr. Daniel Amen is one of America's leading psychiatrists and brain health experts, and someone Jordan happens to be obsessed with. He's helped millions of people heal and optimize their brains, end mental illness, and live happier lives. A trailblazer in mental health, he has revolutionized how we address depression, anxiety, and stress. With 12 New York Times bestsellers under his belt, scores of celebrity patients (including Justin Beiber and Miley Cyrus), and millions of followers across social media, he's rightfully made his mark as "the most popular psychiatrist in America." Unlike most psychiatrists, Dr. Daniel Amen looks at the brain first and uses brain scans as a visual cue to explain self-sabotaging behaviors robbing us of true happiness. In this episode, Dr. Amen outlines specific steps to boost your mood with a brain care toolkit of diet and lifestyle habits. From feeding your brain the best diet (say yes to colorful fruits and veggies, no to alcohol, drugs, and fruit juice) to the mental exercises that train you to be happy and achieve your goals. Plus, discover how your brain type dictates what makes you happy and how to cultivate micro-moments into your routine to increase your overall happiness.  There is nowhere in school where they teach you to question your own thoughts, so many of us overlook – or ignore – the red flags for brain health. Dr. Daniel is rewriting the rulebook to help replace behavioral addictions with empowering strategies to think and act smarter to better our brains and be happier people, achieving our goals and bringing them to life.

Mel Robbins is a motivational powerhouse whose groundbreaking work on behavioral change has impacted millions. Her internationally best-selling books, “The Five Second Rule” and “The High 5 Habit,” empower people to flip their lives around through simple, science-backed actions. I mean, you probably already know who she is if we had to guess!! She is massive on social media and beyond. Mel is a living testament that these tools work. Ten years ago, she was unemployed, crippled by anxiety and $800,000 debt. Initially, counting down from five was the only thing to get out of bed in the morning. This practice would later evolve into “The Five Second Rule,” which became the first step toward her becoming the most booked speaker in the world and changing the lives of so many who apply the rule to address issues in all aspects of their lives. Jordan shares that she's among those touched, having first discovered Mel's work while in the throes of a panic attack a few years ago.  In this deep and stimulating conversation, Mel gets candid on her professional and personal downward spiral in 2020, which saw her get fired from her dream job and threaten the future of the business empire she spent a decade building. She shares how high-fiving herself in the mirror gave her the strength to love herself through her rock bottom and the fascinating science behind the simple gesture that helps you become your own self-advocate.  Plus, you'll hear the magic of Mel's motivational wisdom in real-time as she helps Jordan make a call on an important decision (or two or three!!).  There is so much wisdom and tools for anyone out there suffering from anxiety or a lifestyle rut. But if you walk away from this conversation with anything, let it be that you have the power to be your own cheerleader and celebrate yourself, wherever you are in your journey.  Thanks to https://obefitness.com/ (Obé Fitness) for sponsoring this episode.

This week's guest, Kristen Schwartz from @realizedempath, guides empaths and highly sensitive people (HSP's) with tools to feel safe, secure, and seen in an overstimulated world that often deems sensitivity as a weakness. You guys know how I feel about sensitivity -- it is actually a superpower! And we get into that in this conversation.  Kristen has created a beautiful platform that articulates what so many of us feel but perhaps have not found the words to express. The good news is that we are not alone! There are so many empaths and highly sensitive people in the world, and this personality type is often linked to deep intuition and those who are seers, psychics, creatives, healers, coaches, and beyond. Kristen outlines a roadmap that allows us to clear out the emotional debris, own your truth and harness your sensitivity as a superpower.  Kristen has been there. Six years ago, a dark night of the soul pushed her edge. She went inward, strengthened her internal trust muscle, set strict boundaries, and transcended from tragedy to triumph. Now she's a shining light for others and has birthed her first book: The Healed Empath.  Her blend of psychology, science, and a dash of magic is guaranteed to inspire you to create space in your life for better boundaries, energy protection, and the emotional freedom to shine as YOU!

You probably recognize Emily DiDonato from your favorite magazines, brand campaigns, or from her incredible social media presence where she has 2.3M followers on Instagram alone! In this fun and fascinating conversation, you'll get to know the Emily beyond the highlight reel as she chats with Jordan about the realness of pregnancy, the highs and lows of modeling, and the backstory behind her new clean skincare brand, Covey. In a few short weeks, Emily went from your average teen to shooting for Ralph Lauren and picked to be the face of Maybelline! Over the past decade, she has walked international fashion shows, jetted all over the world, and graced the covers of Vogue and Sports Illustratrated. Along the way, she tried just about every beauty product and routine in the book, which inspired her to create the skincare brand Covey. She unpacks her journey, from taking the leap to move to Manhattan alone to forge her modeling career, to the three-year process to birth Covey out into the world and how it feels to be the boss and content creator of her own brand and message. With motherhood on the horizon for both Jordan and Emily (they're due three weeks apart from one another!), the conversation takes an inevitable turn to pregnancy -- and specifically, the realness of pregnancy. Emily reveals how she found out she was pregnant, the rituals getting her by (yoga, cold foods, and laying low), and the harsh realities of being constantly judged on her appearance online. We hope this conversation sparks excitement and joy and inspiration all around! Thanks to https://obefitness.com/ (Obé Fitness) for sponsoring this episode.

Happy Libra season to all of our amazing listeners! Birthdays are a beautiful time to hold space for how much we've grown and elevated into wiser versions of ourselves. So I thought I'd celebrate my 31st trip around the sun with a special birthday tradition I have been doing on my blog for years now- but this is the first time I've brought it to the podcast. 31 things I've learned in 31 years! Writing this list, recording this episode, and connecting to the spiritual teachers who have supported me on this path, have reflected back to me how much I've evolved from the person I was in my early 20s. For the OG TBB fam out there, you've seen me go from a hyper-career focused, people-pleaser, non-vegan, so sick with Lyme, depleted human looking for love, to a celestial, plant-based, eternal soul who has healed her mind, body, and spirit and has so much love in her life.  It's been a HUGE change, and this episode is really my opportunity to speak to you – and my younger self – about the internal shifts, habits, and spiritual teachers who have made an impact on my life. You'll learn how I've made conscious steps to return to love, step into my deepest passions, speak my truth, and re-align with my purpose – even if that looks SO different from how I thought it would be in my 20s when I started TBB. So I invite you to take this episode as a permission slip to "never compare your path with anyone else's because no one here is made of the same star stuff and karma that you are." We're all exactly where we are meant to be.  I'm hosting a huge birthday giveaway with Nama, who has agreed to give away one of their brand new J2 juicers (worth over $550!!) to one of our TBB listeners!

Podcaster, health coach, and Jordan's pregnancy twin, Chelsey Jade Curtis, comes on the show for a girly get-together to chat about plant-based pregnancy, professional growth in the not-always-so-friendly public sphere, and recovery from disordered eating.  There are so many juicy nuggets for everyone to feel inspired by, from Chelsea's journey to becoming a podcaster, dealing with public criticism, and how she integrated her shadow, to her painful struggle with disordered eating, path to healing, and how IIN health coach training galvanized her passion for nutrition, science, and psychology.  Of course, there are LOTS of pregnancy parallels to dive into. Chelsey opens up about letting go of perfectionism to trust her body – even when it's calling for IHOP pancakes and her  intentions were to only eat clean. She and Jordan also bond over their plant-based pregnancy experiences, and dealing with “mommy police” opinions on diet, restrictions, and animal protein myths. Plus: imagining how this Christmas will look very different for both of them with a boy baby Sag or Capricorn in the mix (due dates are a week apart from each other)!

The last time Jonathan was on the show, we shared, for the first time with you guys, that we are having a baby!! Now that I'm inching toward my third trimester (one more week, WHAT?), we thought it would be fun to have him back on and give you a mega update about what's been going on behind closed doors, answer questions you sent over IG, and share some exciting news about TBB while I'm on my maternity leave!  Tune in to hear how Jonathan has been handling my hormonal pregnancy mood swings (lol), brain fog, and generally being the world's best support system while my body is in lots of physical pain, and my hormones are through the roof. You'll learn about fatherhood plans from his perspective (lots of yoga and matching outfits!) and what creating a spiritual household signifies for him. Baby Albrecht has brought us closer in so many ways, and we chat about the different ways we're nesting (nursery decorating, house hunting – all so exciting), and how our romantic relationship has evolved during this time. We also unveil some exciting plans for the podcast during my maternity leave. We can't wait to hear what you think! It's a fun one. Intimate, easy, chatty. Please leave us a rating and review if you enjoy!!

Lately, it's felt like my emotional self has been in a washing machine. I've had so many profound realizations and downloads come to the surface. I feel so fortunate to have this safe container to share my feelings and perspectives of everything that is going on in and around my life!  Where do I begin?! Well, I am just about to enter my 3rd trimester and have been connecting to this ancient soul growing inside me, and navigating some of the not-so-fun physical sides of things (more on that in the episode). I have just returned from a transformative, soul-filling escape in Kauai, where I literally purged every emotion possible, and sat with intense feelings of self-worth, career, and purpose here on Earth, and how that manifests in my message within TBB.  YES, we get into the next phase of TBB all the way!! And we talk cancel / call out culture. You'll have to tune in to hear the rest :) – but I can't wait to embark on this journey with you all!  Thanks to https://www.organifishop.com/pages/balanced?utm_source=balanced&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=direct (Organifi) for sponsoring this episode.

Meet yogi, writer, Lyme-survivor, vegan, podcaster, and spiritual seeker Kayla Nielson. She's Jordan's soul twin in freakishly synchronistic ways (right down to hometown and magic numbers!), and this conversation touches on all the topics near and dear to TBB.  After growing up in Sacramento, California, and majoring in English (sound familiar?), Kayla hit a wall with party culture and an abusive relationship that culminated in a near-death experience: the first of two she would have that year. She found solace traveling to far-flung destinations outside of her comfort zone and became rooted in cultivating her yoga practice (she started taking classes at 12)! African tick bite fever stopped Kayla in her tracks while in Africa and sent her down a long and painful path of detoxing her body and soul through spirituality, nourishment, and plant medicine.  If you thought Kayla expressed herself beautifully in words online, wait until you hear her incredibly inspiring pain-to-purpose story on this episode. Kayla opens her heart about her journey from darkness to light. From addiction, abuse, and depression to transformative ayahuasca ceremonies, opening up to love, coming out as bisexual, and building her brand (she's about to launch an app and open a retreat in Nicaragua).  Thanks to https://www.sakara.com/pages/balanced (Sakara Life) for sponsoring this episode.

Nicholas Bruss is an integrative psychotherapist who was instrumental to Jordan's mental health growth and healing from 2015 to around 2018. Since working together, he's evolved his traditional practice to become a researcher, advocate, and specialist in the field of psychedelic-assisted therapy, a topic close to Jordan's heart.  This episode goes beyond the anecdotal reflections of psychedelic experiences and deep dives into the science and current research surrounding psychedelics as medicinal tools. Nicolas Bruss is a member of MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) and the founder of The Psychedelic Coalition. Both groups are committed to eliminating the stigma attached to "drugs," such as ketamine and MDMA, by advocating for their health benefits with solid research. It's fascinating to learn more about how the legalization process is progressing for MDMA, which is on the cusp of being FDA approved to treat PTSD. If you have burning questions on psychedelic therapies, this episode delivers so much factual information, grounded in scientific understanding and clinical research, to sate your curiosity. Nick generously shares how he trained with MDMA himself and invites us all to connect to the study and investigate this new paradigm of mental health.

Founder and CEO of Beekeeper's Naturals, Carly Stein,  joins Jordan to talk about her lifelong passion for bees, business, and how she has carved a thriving, sustainable company built on the medicinal powers of the beehive.  Carly suffered chronic tonsillitis and allergies that plagued her adolescence until she stumbled upon a tincture of bee propolis in Italy. The discovery led her down a rabbit hole of research and creating bee products in her studio apartment's makeshift lab. After spending years as an amateur alchemist and bee advocate, she gained the courage to leave her finance job at Goldman Sachs in New York to begin her own business adventure. Carly's created a magical formula for her business based on sustainability and bee advocacy (we owe a lot to these fuzzy, black and yellow creatures!) and a unique CEO personality to match. At heart, she's a creative soul whose version of what it means to be a girl boss strays from the norm. In this episode, you'll learn what lights her up as a creator, and the different spiritual modalities she employs – from journaling to plant medicine – to show up as the best version of herself.

Author and speaker, Ashley Lemieux, has empowered thousands of women to find purpose in their pain by reframing their mindset through the darkest moments of their life.  Ashley's motherhood journey is one of immense pain, loss, and, ultimately, hope, after losing her two adopted children in an emotionally exhausting court battle that left her and her husband scrambling to find their way back to each other again. Last year, after making the conscious decision to grow their family, health challenges resulted in another tragic loss that she so openly and bravely discusses on the show. Silver linings are impossible to find in such moments, but Ashley's realization that escaping the pain made things worse invited her to work through it rather than around it. Clarity mapping, intentional meditation, and releasing stringent timelines have allowed her to find joy in her life and partnership again.  In times of shrinking solitude, Ashley Lemieux transformed her anguish to art, creating a community for people to feel seen, heard, and loved – even when they do not feel worthy. We hope this vulnerable, raw conversation offers light and inspiration to those who feel their emotional load is too heavy to carry.  Thanks to https://www.sakara.com/pages/balanced (Sakara Life) for sponsoring this episode.

On August 1st, the world lost a charismatic spiritual teacher and force of nature; Guru Jagat, world-renowned Kundalini teacher and founder of the RA MA Institute for Applied Yogic Science and Technology, passed from this realm. She is survived by her partner, Teg Nam, and cherished by the millions of souls she touched along her incredibly accomplished path.  For Jordan, Guru Jagat was a gateway to Kundalini and an inspiration of a modern woman, living fully in her power, weaving ancient technologies with science and channeling wisdom from spiritual leaders worldwide for millennials to have access to.  The intention of this re-air is to celebrate her magnetic aura, joyful spirit, and teachings that ring as true today as they did in 2018 when this episode was recorded. Guru Jagat said that her role as a teacher on this planet was that of an artist, helping others connect with their creativity to unlock their inner powers. We hope that, after listening to this conversation, you'll feel called to release your unique gifts into this world too, whatever they may be.  We send love to Guru Jagat's family, friends, community, and students, and we hope that this inspiring conversation brings back her powerful & timeless vibrations.

Kimberly Snyder is the complete embodiment of her "four cornerstones of true beauty”: food, body, emotional well-being, and spiritual growth. As a vegan mama, wellness entrepreneur, OG celeb nutritionist, and bestselling author, she's been a guiding force for Jordan during her years of blogging and now in her plant-based pregnancy journey.   Kimberly has had two plant-based pregnancies and has dedicated her entire career to empowering people with abundant nutrition and a peaceful mindset, so this episode is filled with so much helpful advice on how to increase protein intake, get the right prenatal supplements, and source organic milk formulas. Plus, she walks us through the practical ways to approach your doctor with a conscious, vegan eating plan that could go against ¨traditional" pregnancy diet routes but is no less nutritionally balanced – delicious! Like Jordan, Kimberly agrees that eating goes beyond food itself and comes down to the energetic connection we have to our bodies and ourselves to be clear channels.  Kimberly gives full permission to be the mother YOU were meant to be. There are no "good" or "bad" ways to carry a child, birth a baby, or be a mom. She blends the best of holistic and western medicine practices because the connection to spirit transcends any 3D labels society puts on us. Her birth story is a beautiful example of releasing control and other people's expectations to focus on the journey of motherhood without obsessing over the birth. Her C-sections took her to where she is now: a glowing boy mama with two healthy, happy sons running around the woods, as alive and compassionate as could possibly be. What an inspiration for all!  Thanks to https://us.foursigmatic.com/special-offer-new/special-deal-coffee1?discount=blonde&afmc=blonde&utm_campaign=blonde-coffee-week&utm_medium=partner&utm_source=email&utm_content=blonde&utm_term= (Four Sigmatic) for sponsoring this episode.
