In this episode, Lyndsay Soprano gets real about the mess behind the scenes: home renovation hell, relentless exhaustion, and the kind of stress that clings to your skin.This isn't a glamorized version of pushing through. It's about those moments when everything feels too loud, too heavy, too much.

She shares what it's like to live in a body that feels like a battleground, and how something as simple as a swim can feel like coming home.More than anything, she talks about finding purpose inside the pain. The power of community. The reminder that you are not your diagnosis.

Send me a text!How to Avoid Overwhelm and Access Joy in a Time of Change begins with recognizing our shared human struggle to maintain emotional equilibrium during turbulent periods. The journey involves understanding that our stress responses are natural support mechanisms, not personal failures, and learning to engage them with compassion and intentionality. By embracing our nervous system's signals and creating flexible, value-aligned routines, we can transform overwhelming experiences into opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Connecting with our inner landscape and broader ecosystems allows us to move beyond survival mode, accessing deeper reservoirs of resilience and joy that aren't dependent on external circumstances. This approach isn't about achieving some mythically perfect calm, but about cultivating a compassionate relationship with ourselves that honors our shared humanity and supports our capacity to show up authentically in a complex world. In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I explore how to avoid overwhelm and access joy in a time of change through embodied empowerment rather than toxic positivity. Some of what I explore in this episode includes:The difference between disassociating and self-careThe role of your stress response and how you can respond to it.Making space for rest and rechargingSchedule changes, to do lists, and creating routines that support youConnecting to an ecosystem for social change (because it can't just be you) LINKS TO EPISODES REFERENCED IN THIS EPISODE:7 Ways to Relax this Summer and BeyondHow to Create a Schedule that Works for YouEmbracing Periods of Reflection LINKS TO REFERENCES MADE IN THIS EPISODE:Valarie Kaur speech clip on InstagramSocial Change Now: A Guide for Reflection and Connection by Deepa IyerDeepa Iyer Substack article: Grieve, Connect, Act, Reflect, Correct.

This episode includes a dog, a cat who runs up a tree and gets stuck, an electrical cord, and a leadership lesson. There's a backyard rescue mission, a personal realization and a few more interesting plot twists.   But the real story? It's not about the cat. It's about what happens inside a people-pleaser's mind when something goes wrong, and the urge to fix, help, and over-function takes over. Jenny explores the discomfort of stepping back, resisting the urge to over-help, and learning to trust that other people are capable—even when it's hard to watch.   Listener Reflection: Have you ever helped without being asked?

The tables are turned today, and I opened up about something that's been weighing on me…securing sponsorships for the Empowered Podcasting Conference this September.  We've been reaching out all year, but so far, no one's signed on. It's been stressful, and honestly, tough to stay optimistic. The team stepped in with ideas, encouragement, and ways to reframe how I'm looking at the situation. We talked strategy, timing, and how to plan ahead for future events. Toward the end of the show, we answered a mailbag question about explicit tags: if you drop an occasional F-bomb or mention adult topics, do you really need to mark your show as explicit? We broke down when it's needed, what platforms like Apple expect, and how it may or may not affect your reach.

Can we claim hope and purpose in challenges? Tina Yeager sits down with the prolific and award-winning author Jane Ann Kirkpatrick, whose passion for historical fiction has led her to write over 40 books about courageous women overcoming personal trials. Together, they explore how we can find purpose in our challenges—whether we're facing the struggles of young motherhood, separation from loved ones, financial hardship, or the deep pain of grief. Facing Hardship with Purpose Jane dives deep into why overcoming trials is a recurring theme in her novels—especially her latest, Across the Crying Sands. Drawing on personal experiences and her research on pioneering women, Jane shares how these historical figures managed to build meaningful lives even when resources were slim and options limited. Their secret? Resilience, faith, and finding community, even in the harshest conditions. Modern Parallels for Today's Women Jane's stories resonate with single moms and young mothers today. The women she writes about faced loneliness, family separation, and the daily uncertainties of frontier life. Jane encourages us to look for “the rungs of the ladder” to climb out of tough places—leaning on faith, building community, and being open to help from others. One standout message: independence is vital, but so is knowing when to reach out for support. Purpose and vision anchor us through difficulties, and community sustains us when we can't do it alone. Turning Challenges into Creativity Jane shares a memorable reader story—how one woman facing the anxiety of having a deployed spouse chose to create her own support circle. Instead of lingering in worry, she formed a family book club, finding agency and connection. It's a beautiful reminder that, as Jane says, “when things are tough, don't complain, create.” She also urges us to make the most of what we have—whether it's creating economical solutions for our families or choosing to gather at the table for a meal. Small, intentional moments matter. Grief, Comfort, and Community Grief is a universal challenge, and Jane addresses it with sensitivity. Drawing from both her novels and years in mental health, she stresses the importance of honoring grief while looking for transformation and comfort. Sometimes, just being present for someone is the greatest gift. A Quick Tip to Carry Forward Jane leaves us with a beautiful charge—to trust the power you have to make a difference in someone's life. Simple gestures—smiles, encouragement, even a kind word—can become defining moments for those around us. Stay Connected with Jane Ann Kirkpatrick Learn more about Jane's books and get inspired through her monthly StorySparks newsletter at jkbooks.com. You'll also find links to order her novels (including Across the Crying Sands) at a discount from Baker Publishing, and see what's new on her author Facebook and Instagram pages. Drawing from her latest novel, Across the Crying Sands, Jane shares the real-life journey of a young woman on the Oregon frontier who discovered meaning amid adversity by stepping into a groundbreaking role as the region's first postmistress. Through both historical insights and heartfelt audience stories, Jane and Tina discuss the enduring power of faith, community, resilience, and the importance of seeking support when times get tough.
