Record your voice message here and it could be answered in an upcoming episode! https://www.jillianturecki.com/askjillian  This episode is for anyone stuck in the painful in-between of a situationship, mixed signals, or feeling emotionally invested in someone who won't fully choose them. Jillian breaks down why so many people settle for uncertainty, over-function to keep a connection alive, and mistake anxiety for chemistry. She explains how fear of rejection can lead people to abandon their own needs, silence themselves, and stay attached to the fantasy of who someone could be instead of facing the reality of who they are.

If you've ever felt completely fine when you're single—confident, healed, grounded—and then watched all of that fall apart the moment you actually liked someone, this episode is for you. Relationship anxiety isn't just anxious attachment. It's the fear of not being good enough, the fear of being left, and the weight of expecting one person to meet every need your life is missing. Jillian breaks down the real symptoms (the obsessing, the catastrophizing, the midnight doubt spirals), why your nervous system is doing it on purpose, and the belief systems that are quietly running your love life from underneath. Most importantly, she shares the shift that changes everything: when your life is already meaningful, a partner becomes someone you want—not someone you desperately need.

In this episode, Jillian challenges that belief and explains why no one truly “gets away” with the harm they cause—because the psyche always remembers.

Jillian sits down with Jay Shetty to talk about what “the work” in love actually looks like — in real time. Jay shares why he created Messy Love (his Audible Original), where listeners get to “sit in the room” with real couples as they navigate cheating narratives, unmet expectations, old wounds, and the messy middle between conflict and connection. Jillian and Jay unpack why compassion isn't permissive — it's structured, boundaried, and powerful — and why most relationship fights spiral into accusation, criticism, and defense… leaving zero room for love. If you've ever wondered whether you're asking your partner to change…or asking them to be someone they're simply not, this episode will land.

What if the most powerful climate intervention isn't policy, but precision?Deep Dhillon sits down with Ryan Sullivan of Bridger Photonics to unpack how AI, physics, and aerial sensing are being used to hunt down methane leaks that can cost operators dearly and accelerate climate impact. Ryan explains how methane detection has matured over the past decade, and why Bridger's approach (laser-based lidar tuned to methane) can identify the specific valve, tank, or piece of equipment responsible.They walk through the full pipeline: scanning swaths over infrastructure, reconstructing plumes from point-cloud data, applying supervised learning trained on ~15 years of labeled leak history, and then having expert analysts validate results with tooling that overlays plume density, wind conditions, and site geography. Then the two zoom out to the uncomfortable questions, like why Bridger refuses to play watchdog, how trust and data ownership shape the market, and what the “north star” looks like; near-real-time detection, autonomous flight patterns, and predictive maintenance that catches failures before they happen.Learn more about Ryan here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sullivar/and Bridger Photonics here: https://www.bridgerphotonics.com/Check out some of our related content here: 3 Million Gallons Vanished?

In this special live coaching session, Jillian speaks with a woman who is struggling to end her 17-year marriage to a good man—and wrestling with overwhelming guilt about breaking up her family. As they unpack the story, a deeper truth emerges: the real turning point wasn't “lack of growth” or “misaligned goals,” but a painful and confusing experience in which her husband repeatedly encouraged her to date other men in hopes of fixing their intimacy. Jillian helps her name the hurt, the rejection, and the sense of being unseen that she's been carrying alone. This conversation is a powerful look at consent, self-advocacy, and the courage required to tell the full truth—both to yourself and to your partner.

What does it mean to be truly blessed in the kingdom of God? In this episode, Camden Bucey welcomes back pastor and author Jonathan Cruse, pastor of Community Presbyterian Church (Orthodox Presbyterian Church) in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to discuss his latest book, Paradox People: Learning to Live the Beatitudes (P&R Publishing). Together they explore how Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5:3–12 turns worldly expectations upside down—and how the Beatitudes offer not a checklist for salvation, but a portrait of Christ and those united to him by faith. Drawing from pastoral experience and theological insight, Cruse explains how the Beatitudes call Christians to a counterintuitive life: one of meekness, mourning, mercy, and spiritual hunger. Yet far from being burdensome, this vision of kingdom living flows from the grace already secured in Christ. The conversation also touches on inaugurated eschatology, Christian distinctiveness in the culture, and how the Beatitudes equip believers to live faithfully as pilgrims between two ages. Listeners will be encouraged to see the Beatitudes not just as commands, but as Christ-centered comfort—anchoring our present obedience in a certain future hope.
