Today on the show, I'm thrilled to share again my chat with Jennifer Pastiloff in this “best of” conversation. Jen was the very first guest we had here on this podcast. Talking with her was everything I had hoped for: she was honest, authentic, funny, insightful, and joyful. I just loved it. Jen is the best-selling author of “On Being Human,” and she is also a public speaker, coach, retreat leader, yoga teacher, and is the creator of the Shame Loss movement. You'll hear how a house-sitting experience gave Jen the permission to dream of owning her own home after living in her apartment for so long. How people on social media tried to shame her about that same apartment (but don't worry – Jen didn't allow that!); and how she finally manifested her beautiful place in Ojai, California. As she says, everything comes at the right time, including nice kitchen. Please enjoy this episode. It's one of my favorites.LEARN MORE ABOUT JENNIFER PASTILOFF Website: JenniferPastiloff.comInstagram: @jenpastiloffOTHER EPISODES YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKEBlack Fairy Godmother Simone GordonPodcast host and author Elise LoehnenTherapist and author Lori GottliebHunker's Editor in Chief Eve EpsteinCONNECT WITH ME, LAURIE GUNNING GROSSMANHave questions?

She has learned to fiercely listen despite being nearly deaf, to banish shame attached to a body mass index, and to rebuild a family after the debilitating loss of her father when she was eight. She's a pathological truth teller whose story of recovering from disordered eating and depression helps us find, accept, and embrace our own vulnerability, bravery, and humanness. Cheryl Strayed calls this woman “a conduit of awakenings.” Her work is a celebration of happiness and self-realization over darkness and doubt and an inspiration for us all to live outside the box and to reject the all-too-common belief of “I am not enough.” I am so excited to welcome, Jen Pastiloff to untamed and Unashamed!   What we discuss in this episode:    -her story    -how we can all Quiet our inner A-hole   -“Should” is an asshole   -lToday may I not let fear be the boss of me.”   -online criticism    -imposter syndrome   -what she calls “Just-A-Box”   -What it means to be a no bullshit mother   -How we can cultivate creativity   -why asking “Now What?” every day is one of the most important things we can do for ourselves to take baby steps each day in order to manifest our goals   Book mentions: on being human, The chronology of water  AFFILIATES:   Pleasure Wands & Yoni eggs: https://waands.com/?ref=MvvfOgLGokjDQQ CODE “JADE” for a discount    Royal Codes Goddess Wear: Royal Codes | Goddess Wear  CODE “JADE” for a discount   CBD DirectHemp.com - A Better Way to CBD CODE “JADE” for a discount   Intro music:     Milckmusic.com @milckmusic on TikTok, ig, fb, Twitter  Somebodysbeloved.com   Production: Reel In Motion    https://instagram.com/untamedandunashamedpodcast?utm_medium=copy_link   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Does shame run your life? Jen Pastiloff is the best-selling author of On Being Human: A Memoir of Waking Up, Living Real, and Listening Hard. For years, Jen stuffed down shame around her body, her hearing loss, her depression and anxiety. When she stopped denying her challenges, something wonderful happened. Folks responded to her authenticity. Nowadays, Jen's real. Like unapologetically real. You'll find her on Instagram creating art and doing compassionate acts for other humans – sometimes with spinach in her teeth, and in the same yoga clothes she's worn for days. She refuses to be shackled by shame. And she'll show you how to free yourself too. You'll learn some of the rituals she teaches in her popular workshops, including her morning prayer, and how you can let yourself off the hook before bed, “in case you ended up being a dick today.” Inspiring and radically practical. Hit play and grab your cuppa.   Jen Pastiloff on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenpastiloff/ Her website: https://jenniferpastiloff.com

In an idyllic Los Angeles neighborhood, where generations of families enjoy deep roots in old homes, the O'Rourke family fits right in. Miriam and Craig are both artists and their four children carry on the legacy. When their teenage son, Nick, is diagnosed with schizophrenia, a tumultuous decade ensues in which the family careens permanently off the conventional course. Like the ten Biblical plagues, they are hit by one catastrophe after another, violence, evictions, arrests, a suicide attempt, a near-drowning...even cancer and a brain tumor...play against the backdrop of a wild teenage bacchanal of artmaking and drugs. With no time for hand-wringing, Miriam advances, convinced she can fix everything, while a devastated Craig retreats to their property in rural Washington State as home becomes a battlefield. It is while cleaning out a closet, that Miriam discovers a cache of drawings and journals written by Nick throughout his spiral into schizophrenia. She begins a solitary forensic journey into the lonely labyrinth of his mind. This is the story of how mental illness unspools an entire family. As Miriam fights to reclaim her son from the ruthless, invisible enemy, we are given an unflinching view into a world few could imagine. It exposes the shocking shortfalls of our mental health system, the destructive impact of stigma, shame and isolation, and, finally, the falsity of the notion of a perfect family. Throughout the book, it is the family's ability to find humor in the absurdities of this life that saves them. It is a parable that illustrates the true definition of a good life, allowing for the blemishes and mistakes that are part of the universal human condition. He Came In With It is the legacy of, and for, her son Nick. Author Miriam Feldman is in conversation with Jen Pastiloff. _______________________________________________   Produced by Maddie Gobbo, Lance Morgan, & Michael Kowaleski Theme: "I Love All My Friends," an unreleased demo by Fragile Gang.

Hello my messy friends! I am back with another wonderful guest this week! We met at the workshop I mentioned in last week's episode, On Being Human by Jen Pastiloff. We cried and hugged and sang and held hands and, luckily, connected on Instagram afterward. *TW - Discussion of miscarriages and depression. My guest, Allison, has experienced some of the most painful grief imaginable - that of losing a child. I am so grateful to her for being brave and generous enough to share her feelings about this with us. I know I learned so much about grief and healing in this conversation, and I hope you will too. Thank you, Allison. She is a writer, researcher, published memoir editor and medicine woman, and inspires the people in her life with raw, authentic and truly relatable takes on mental health, what it means to own our fears and the meaning of grief. Also a Reiki practitioner and yoga teacher, this woman knows a thing or two about healing. She offers coaching through her website wearelivingbravely.com where you can also find her blog, Bravely, and her podcast Braving the Storm. I am so excited to welcome to the show, my friend, Allison Blair Snyder. Where can we find Allison? @allisonislivingbravely on IG wearelivingbravely.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kayleigh-shuler/message

Moving Away from Fear Toward an Authentic Life with Jen Pastiloff We should never forget who we are and what we want, even with adversity in our lives. Our purpose and identity are what keep us going. No matter what society tells us about how and who we should be, living an authentic life will bring satisfaction and happiness in our lives. It's time to reflect and ask ourselves if we are living the life we’ve always wanted. And if we find ourselves saying no, may we have the courage to start again and build the life we desire. In this episode, Jen Pastiloff talks to us about the importance of living a life congruent with our true selves and moving away from fear. Discussions on how to prevent ourselves from being paralyzed from fear are essential as we continue to live through a global pandemic and civil unrest. She also talks about how she's helping amplify the voices of the vulnerable sectors of society and why she doesn't believe that everything happens for a reason.

Living an authentic life gives you freedom. Just like how gossiping and complaining don't make you feel good and lower your vibration, not living a life congruent with your real self will not bring you happiness. Coping During the COVID-19 Pandemic Due to the pandemic's impacts, Jen had to cancel a lot of her schedule, which prevented her from earning. To cope with the stress, she chose to use her platform to raise money for people suffering from the ongoing health crisis and the Black Lives Matter movement. Doing online workshops also gives her hope during this challenging period. Moving Away from Fear Jen copes with her anxieties by moving her body. Find your people who will hold you accountable and remind you of who you really are. Fear starts to get louder when you're at home all day long. Due to the current state of the world, many people lack human connection, and it adds to the fear they're having. Jen finds the strength within her to jump on new things even though she feels afraid. Jen’s Main Anchor in Life Jen inherited her dad's sense of humor. Learning humor’s value and not taking herself too seriously helped her find balance in her life. Everything is temporary. So Jen encourages everyone to remain grateful for the things they have right now. Her ability to connect with people is also one thing that keeps her on the right path. Does Everything Happen for a Reason? Instead of saying everything happens for a reason, according to Jen, it's much better to find the meaning out of a situation. She doesn't agree that the suffering of other people is something preordained. The phrase “everything happens for a reason” is just a way for people to cope with the discomfort they feel about something. That said, Jen does not invalidate how the phrase provides comfort to religious people or people of faith. Using Her Platform for Social Justice Jen reminds everyone that it doesn't cost anything to be kind and help other people. Helping others feels organic to her. Jen is aware of her privilege as a white woman. So she makes sure she uses her platform to amplify the voices of the people who don't share the same privilege. 5 Powerful Quotes from This Episode [07:11] “All I ever want to be is free, and kind, and various other things, but free, ultimately, from the prison that most of us put ourselves in.” [08:18] “May I have the courage to be who I say I am.”  [22:27] “I know what I'm good at. I'm good at being in a room with 75 or a hundred people in person. But I don't know how this was gonna work. I'm afraid, and I'm doing it anyway.” [23:40] “If it becomes a lifetime of being afraid and not doing it, then you get kind of screwed.” [30:27] “I don't think everything happens for a reason at all. I think that's nonsense. I think that after something happens, we can make meaning out of it sometimes, or art, or find the gift in it.” About Jen Jen Pastiloff is a yoga and wellness teacher and author. Her sold-out workshops all over the world have helped thousands of women feel empowered and stronger. She also founded the online magazine The Manifest-Station. Her book On Being Human is a memoir on how she overcame her demons and lived a life full of happiness and beauty.

Today’s episode is about more than just being happy; it’s about how to really ground down, how to become your best self through creating powerful habits and rituals, and how to overcome your own worst critic: yourself. So, of course, we’ve invited on the master in this subject — Gretchen Rubin!   Gretchen is a five-time best selling author, speaker, podcaster, and the creator of the Four Tendencies framework. In her work, she explores happiness and good habits. She believes there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for becoming happier, healthier, more productive, or more creative; when we know ourselves and what works for us, we can change our habits and our lives.   In our conversation with Gretchen today, we really focus in on how to ground down and find the rituals that work for you. We agree with her that there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to finding your own happiness — so in today’s show, we really take a look at the many different ways we can begin to form effective rituals and habits while still owning what makes each of us unique and different.   If you haven’t found the habits and rituals that work for you in your everyday life — stay tuned. With Gretchen’s insights today we believe you could discover what works for you best!   IGNTD Specials: IGNTD Live Online Groups (Free for 14 Days) IGNTD Subscription ($43 per month & 30 days of Live Groups included)   Topics Discussed: [:01] About our new IGNTD subscription!

Jen Pastiloff joins us for a special podcast episode recorded during our online PJ Party held the first weekend of May 2020. Jen is a teacher, leader and author of the amazingly beautiful book "On Being Human: A Memoir of Waking Up, Living Real, and Listening Hard." Jen's story of recovering from disordered eating and depression helps women find, accept, and embrace their own vulnerability, bravery, and humanness. Her work is a celebration of happiness and self-realization over darkness and doubt and an inspiration to live outside the box and to reject the all-too-common belief of “I am not enough.”To learn more about Jen Pastioff: https://www.jenniferpastiloff.com/To learn more about Erin Wickersham: https://erinwickersham.com/To visit the SHE RECOVERS website, click here.SHE RECOVERS Facebook Page, click here.SHE RECOVERS Instagram Page, click here.

Growing up in Los Angeles as the only child of divorced parents, Erin Khar, often consumed with loneliness, looked for an escape from the pervasive belief that she wasn't enough—not enough to keep her parents together or her mother from depression—and yet, she never shared with anyone this private sadness. Instead, she hid behind the façade of a perfect childhood filled with good grades, a popular group of friends, and horseback riding. By the time she was thirteen, the act becoming too difficult to keep up, and she started experimenting with her grandmother's expired valium, quickly followed by heroin. The drug allowed her to feel the calm she was missing from her life and suppress all the heavy feelings she couldn't understand. Heroin, while keeping her from other forms of self-harm, became the addiction that destroyed her. Khar is in conversation with Jen Pastiloff, who travels the world with her unique workshop On Being Human, a hybrid of yoga-related movement, writing, sharing aloud, letting the snot fly, and the occasional dance party.

Jen Pastiloff, author of On Being Human: A Memoir of Waking Up, Living Real and Listening Hard, tells the incredible story of her journey. She believed she was a bad person from the time she was a child and lived with depression and anxiety while slowly losing her hearing. She kept this secret until a moment of awakening that set her on a profoundly different, more open, accepting and joyful path as a writer, teacher and leader. Jen speaks with honesty and clarity about the often rocky road to becoming human. When people ask Jen what she does, how does she like to reply? What has Jen discovered about being human? Jen was close to her Dad. He died when she was 8, what does Jen recall about that day? Jen knew she had a problem but didn't want to let it go. Why? How do we get beyond that facade of "Oh, I'm fine" when we are not? What it feels like to be understood when someone gets you? How did it feel when Jen could say, I can't hear you? Did that help with her shame? Treat everyone with compassion because you don't know How did Jen wait on tables when she could not hear? How Jen learnt to listen What identity did Jen take on as a waitress? How did she see herself in that job? While waiting tables, Jen stopped writing and stopped creating; she felt dead inside. Is this common? Is part of Jen's identity today being an artist? Watching her friend who plays in Snow Patrol is a form of yoga for Jen. Why? Why was Jen so good at teaching yoga? How do we ensure someone feels safe? 5 Post-It note exercises Jen grew up in a land of lack. What's the impact that has on mindset? Why is PINK, a fan of Jen's work?   LINKS   Jen Pastiloff https://www.jenniferpastiloff.com   Top 10 Cowbell songs of all time https://ultimateclassicrock.com/cowbell-songs/   The Mojo Radio Show http://www.themojoradioshow.com   The Mojo Radio Show on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheMojoRadioShowPodcast/   The Mojo Radio Show on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/themojoradioshowpodcast   The Mojo Radio Show copyright Gary Bertwistle & Darren Robertson   Products or companies we discuss are not paid endorsements.

In this week’s inspiring episode, Brooke and Grant are joined by Jen Pastiloff, author of On Being Human, who shares the story of her leap of faith that was more like a push, the reason why “I got you” and “It’s gonna be okay” are her two favorite sets of words, and why she never wants to be seen as a guru. Join us for a conversation about listening, showing up for other people, and pursuing your dreams even when it’s terrifying and you’re not sure where you’re going to land.

when jen was eight her father died. the last words she said to him were “I hate you.” those words would haunt her well into adulthood as she found herself dropping out of NYU as an english major, working as a waitress for 14 years while “pursuing” acting and dead-end relationships, and falling deeper into depression.the day she began taking anti-depressants was the day she began finding her way home.she became a yoga teacher and started writing what was true. sharing all of what it means to be human: the messy, the hard, the beautiful, the magical. no shame. no apologies. just “real fucking life.”today jen is the national bestselling author of "On Being Human: a memoir of waking up, living real, and listening hard." she leads sold-out yoga-related movement and writing retreats around the world, and is the founder of the online magazine The Manifest-Station. jen has been featured on Good Morning America, New York magazine, Health magazine, CBS news, and more. she has a massive online following and is loved the world over for her raw and real telling of what it means to be human.some things we talk about:how jen rebuilt her entire life from depressed and unhappy to wildly successful and happier (most of the time) how much to share, how to bear witness, and how to just be on making the thing that is true to you and designing a life, and business, around who you are on busting through shame, giving yourself a fucking medal, and being free

The concept of “just a box” is from Jen Pastiloff's On Being Human; we intentionally downplay what we're doing because we aren't proud, or worse, because we're ashamed. The progress paradox is in competition and the negative side of ambition; no matter what you get/do, you always want more. If you're “just an actress, just a waitress, just in retail…” you shape the entire experience using a negative connotation, therefore altering the experience entirely. Comparing our experience to where others are or where we "should" be, takes away from the opportunity to make NOW what we want it to be. We have the choice to show up differently.

A few weeks before Do Less was going to launch, I decided to follow my intuition and reach out to a few women who I was loosely connected with on Instagram to see if they'd be open to receiving a copy. There wasn't any real strategy behind who I reached out to. I just trusted that if someone popped up in my feed and I felt called to send them a DM that I should. So I did. One of these women responded immediately, and we got into an instant back-and-forth banter that made me smile and felt like I was texting a lifelong girlfriend. It turned out she lived in LA. I was headed to LA during launch week. She asked if I was doing an event. I said no...but then I paused and thought, "Maybe?" She offered to do an "in conversation" (a phrase I've seen circulating in the literary world - a world I'm not part of - that means two people talk on stage at an event) to sell books. This woman I don't know is offering to take time out of her schedule as a mother of a toddler on the eve of her first book being published to help me spread the word about my book. Wow. Sparked by the generosity of this big-hearted new friend, my LA book launch was born. Had it not been for her message, I never would have gotten to throw the party that I secretly really wanted to throw but didn't think I had the bandwidth, energy, or budget to make happen. This angel of a woman is Jennifer Pastiloff, and she is not only beautifully generous of spirit and freaking hysterical, she's a damn good writer and is honest AF about her life. It's a stunning combination. Jen worked as a server for 15 years and then created her own career teaching On Being Human workshops around the world. Her story is so inspiring, and I'm so excited to be sharing it with you. This week we have Jen on The Kate & Mike Show sharing about her incredible debut memoir, On Being Human (I lapped it right up and laughed and cried out loud on many airplanes on book tour as I read it) as well as: • Her tips for getting over social anxiety and truly connecting with strangers (this was based on my questions because, believe it or not, I'm so scared to talk to strangers) • How she programs her workshops and how doing less has made them even more powerful • The super innovative way she activated a big group of people to spread the word about her book • Why she doesn't read her reviews • The thing she started doing that attracted new customers in flocks • How she cultivates a feeling of enoughness that makes her one of the most generous people I know It was a yummy conversation and when we ended the Zoom call, Mike and I both looked at each other and said, "I love her." You will too. You can get your own copy of Do Less and still receive incredible bonuses at http://katenorthrup.com/book! Kate wants to hear from you, and you can post about your #DoLess experiences on Instagram, DM her (@katenorthrup) or email info@katenorthrup.com!

It's so easy to remember the GOOD when we find ourselves alone, thinking about Mr. Wrong. Claire shares an offering she gave her client this past week, who has recently found it difficult to let go of certain qualities of a Mr. Wrong from her past, despite knowing in the depths of her soul, he is not the right man for her. There's clean pain of missing someone and grieving the loss, and then as you move on, it's easy to create DIRTY PAIN by indulging the belief that he was a lot greater than what he actually was. Eventually you have to DECIDE to get to a place where you implement a HARD NO on obsessing over someone who wasn't right for you, or a HARD NO on obsessing over your body's "flaws." EVERYTHING IS A STORY. It's always our THOUGHTS about someone that make us feel a certain way. So we get to create that feeling we THINK someone gives us, for ourselves ANY TIME. When you feel triggered by a thought that creates longing that then instigates more spiraling and ruminating, PAUSE. Ask yourself: WHY AM I FEELING THIS SADNESS? WHAT AM I THINKING? Can you notice the story you're telling yourself that's causing you pain? HOW COMMITTED ARE YOU TO GIVING YOURSELF A HARD NO ON SHITTY THOUGHTS SO THAT YOU CAN CREATE NEW ONES THAT ARE MORE IN ALIGNMENT WITH YOUR TRUTH THAT CREATES PEACE, CALM, CLARITY, and JOY?? HARD NO on allowing your brain to THINK that certain qualities he embodied gave you feelings you're scared you'll never feel again. YOU GET TO CREATE THOSE FEELINGS WITH OR WITHOUT HIM. Truly! Claire thinks about her man and the woman she's becoming so that they can meet each other in perfect alignment, WITHOUT HIM HERE. Focus on who you want to become with your THINKING. The rest will take care of itself. And for any of you skeptics out there, WHY NOT TRY IT ANYWAY? What's the worst that can happen? He doesn't come and you don't create that feeling... but 100% YOU CAN WITH YOUR THINKING IF YOU GO ALL IN!!! On Being Human by Jen Pastiloff Check out Claire's episode with author Jen Pastiloff where they dish on their Mr. Wrong's from their past, and the pull that kept them mired in so much pain

She explores how thirteen years of waitressing taught her to seek out unexpected beauty, how hearing loss taught her to listen fiercely, how being vulnerable allowed her to find love, and how imperfections can lead to a life full of wild happiness.
