Estrangement from your child… what a painful way to begin the new year. .

Client Reviews… ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance received in the most tragic time of my life from coach Jenny Good. Her faith, compassion, understanding, dedication and display of radical love has truly been life-changing for me. I was so overwhelmed with feelings of confusion, guilt, and sadness. I felt lost and didn't know how to navigate through the emotional turmoil I was experiencing. However, from the very first call, Jenny created a safe and non-judgmental space for me to share my details. Her ability to listen attentively and empathize while helping me understand a different way of thinking is truly remarkable. She understood my feelings and offered tools each session in ways I have not experienced even from therapy. I am forever thankful for the medicine she has poured into me to be the very best version of myself! This has rippled into all areas of life for me. Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter! Thank you for being the vessel of unwavering faith & love that so many of us could benefit from, estranged or not. A true Godsend. - Melinda Wyman . ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son Having a coach and mentor who is rooted in Christ is very important. I've experienced so much inner healing with Jenny as my Coach. I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son! I feel empowered to continue stepping into my full power as a mother and to live a life where my children matter, but they don't determine my worth. I am me again. - Carol Adams

Let's get real about why even generous people struggle during December. I have four simple shifts I make now to build authentic generosity into my life and work all year. These things weren't apart of my routines throughout the year until recently and they've helped me be more intentional during the holidays.

Do you have a Giraffe mindset or a Hippo state of mind? Soren Kierkegaard said that “The door of happiness opens inward.” Dr. Seuss said, “Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.” Wait, did Dr. Seuss really say that? The Cranberries said, "Do you have to let it linger?" We think you do. We also think that Dr. Seuss didn't really say that, but we know who did. So come and Linger with us and bring in the New Year correctly. You'll be Happy you did.By the way we meant to post this Monday but due to some issues, we didn't get it posted in until actual New Years Eve so some of the dates/timeline we mentioned are no longer completely accurate.The song we used for the intro was "Happy Holidays (Beef Wellington Remix)" by Beef Wellington and 2003 Christmas Chill Inc. The ending song was "Make Someone Happy" by Jimmy Durante. We used "Linger" from The Cranberries. We also used "Baby It's Cold Outside" the original from the romantic comedy musical Neptune's Daughter released by MGM in 1949. We don't own any rights.

It's officially the most wonderful time of the year— or is it? During the holidays, many of us are anything but cheerful. From Thanksgiving to Diwali, Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanza and New Year's, it‘s enough to make anyone feel frantic and frazzled. In this episode, Jill sits down with Niro Feliciano, cognitive psychotherapist and author of the new book ‘All is Calmish– How to Feel Less Frantic and More Festive During the Holidays,' about the best ways to handle stress and feel joy during the holiday season. Niro has tips for dealing with grief, savoring key moments, knowing when to say "no," and even how to help kids (and adults) handle the influx of comparisons caused by social media and diverse holiday traditions. You can subscribe to Niro's newsletter, Three Good Things , for more on gratitude, relationships, and wellness. Jill Wagner (@jillrwagner) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist. She's the Managing Editor of Mo News. Jill previously worked as a correspondent for CBS News, Cheddar News, and News 12.

Our attitudes and outlooks can impact our lives significantly, so maintaining our God-given joy is essential. But how do we maintain joy? In this sermon covering the third week of Advent, Pastor Allen Jackson shares three steps we can take to keep our joy intact, and he teaches about the impacts joy has on perseverance, especially through suffering. Like hope that needs a foundation to rest on, joy requires upkeep, and we can practice that through familiarity with God's Word, listening to God's voice, and being in godly community. Holidays can be painful, but we can have lasting joy even through suffering, because our joy is made complete through our willingness to persevere in faith.

During the holidays, the noise keeps grief at bay, gifts, gatherings, constant motion. But when the celebrations end and the quiet returns, the loneliness hits hard. What do you do then?In this episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau opens a sacred conversation about the loneliness that often surfaces after the holidays. She shares from her own lived experience of loss and explains why grief can intensify once the celebrations are over. While the holidays demand strength, resilience, and holding it together, the quiet afterward gives grief space to finally breathe.Susan gently explains that this emotional wave is not regression or failure. It is the heart exhaling after holding its breath. She explores the spiritual meaning behind post-holiday loneliness, reminding listeners that loneliness does not mean love is gone. It means love is still alive.Through powerful insights from Spirit, Susan reveals how loved ones draw closer in the quiet moments, standing exactly where the emptiness is felt most. With compassion and clarity, she offers simple guidance for walking through this tender season without rushing the healing process.This episode is a reminder that even in the heaviest silence, you are not alone. Love does not end. It only changes form.In This Episode:[00:00] Introduction [00:46] Episode topic overview[01:11] The holiday hustle and grief suppression[02:12] The wave of grief after the holidays[03:08] Grief intensifies in the quiet[04:07] Adjusting to the new quiet[05:09] Why grief feels heavier after the holidays[08:08] The emotional crash and release[11:33] Loneliness as a sign of love[12:34] The power of memories and mediumship[13:26] Love persists beyond death[14:28] Spiritual presence after the holidays[15:27] Recognizing and feeling spiritual presence[17:28] Plugging into the presence of loved ones[18:30] The heart settles and healing begins[19:28] The nature of healing[20:35] Gentle guidance for post-holiday grief[21:28] Honesty and connection as healing tools[22:26] Loneliness is a feeling, not a verdict[23:29] Spirit's message: You are not alone[24:31] Love continues and expands[25:32] You are healing in real time[26:33] Grief as the great healer[27:34] Closing and final encouragementNotable Quotes[00:50] “I feel like after the holidays, the quiet loneliness of grief really creeps in. I know it does for me.”[04:54] “Sometimes the quiet is where grief speaks the loudest.”[14:28] “Loneliness after loss does not mean you're empty. It means your love is still alive.”[14:43] “Spirit often comes close during holidays because my heart is already open... but after the holidays, that's when I feel them lean in even closer.”[16:56] “Here's something I hear again and again from spirit: ‘I'm standing exactly where you think the emptiness is.'”[19:40] “Healing is not loud. It's not dramatic. It's not linear. Healing is subtle... It shows up in breath, in realizations, in small shifts.”Susan GrauSusan Grau is an internationally celebrated intuitive life coach, a key opinion leader, author, medium and speaker, who discovered her ability to communicate with the spirit world after a near-death experience at age four.

The holidays after divorce don't hurt because you're single.They hurt because they force you to confront how unsafe it feels to need support.In this Day 9 episode of 12 Days of Divorce Christmas, we talk about the hidden, hardest part of life after divorce—asking for help. Not logistically, but emotionally. Not politely, but vulnerably.If feeling safe, seen, and supported came naturally to you, this wouldn't be the relationship you ended up in—and it wouldn't be how it ended. So when the holidays raise the volume on need, asking for support can feel threatening, activating, or even shame-inducing.Producer Joy joins me to explore what keeps so many women stuck in invisibility—especially during the holidays and heading into the New Year. We talk about worthiness, vulnerability, and the very real fear that comes with letting yourself be witnessed after divorce.This episode invites you to slow down and ask: – What do I actually need right now? – Who has shown me they're safe enough to ask? – What would it look like to make one honest, aligned request?This isn't about forcing vulnerability or asking people to give what they've never shown they can. It's about reclaiming your right to matter—and letting it begin with you.If the holidays after divorce are making it painfully clear how hard it is to need support, this episode will help you understand why—without judgment, pressure, or pretending you're ready for more than you are.You're allowed to feel the fear. And you're allowed to ask anyway.Support the show✨Join the Cocoon Community - your people are waiting! ✨
DESCRIPTIONComing off the holidays feeling sluggish, bloated, or off track? In this episode, I walk you through my simple 7-day reset designed specifically for busy adults over 40 who want to feel better without detoxes, cleanses, or extreme plans. We'll cover how to reintroduce daily movement in a realistic way, why 20 minutes a day is enough to build momentum, and how to simplify nutrition using my Protein, Fiber, Color method so you can stabilize energy, control hunger, and get back into a routine that actually sticks. This is the exact reset I use myself and coach clients through every year to kickstart consistency and confidence after the holidays.FIT40 LINKS✅ Feeling low on energy and out of shape but short on time?
We're back after an unplanned Holiday break, and we all really felt like talking. We spent the first half discussing The Holidays, geography, and The Red Wings. Later we discussed the Blue Jackets and Zach Werenski, ancient YouTube videos, and standardized tests for some reason.
