In today's episode, I'm talking about one intentional breath and why it was MY first step toward emotional healing. Back in October 2020, life felt like pure chaos. The ranch workload was heavier than ever, and I didn't realize the toll it was taking on me until things finally slowed down. That's when the anxiety, chest tightness, and overwhelm hit HARD. Out of desperation, I tried one deep, intentional breath (a big inhale and a long, slow exhale), and to my surprise, the tension began to release! That tiny act showed me I could actually shift how I felt right there in the moment. Taking one intentional breath can be calming, healing, and transformational. I'd love to hear if you try this in your everyday life, and how you feel afterward!In this episode, I cover:What led me to discover intentional breathing as a first step toward healingWhy our breath is the one area we CAN control + why this mattersHow intentional breathing affects the nervous system & other parts of the bodyLong-term benefits of practicing breathwork regularlySimple moments when you can pause and use intentional breathingSome easy breathing tools & exercises you can try right away Make sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have become household names, celebrated as breakthrough treatments for weight loss and obesity. But while headlines showcase dramatic before-and-after photos and promises of rapid transformation, when we step beyond the marketing, a more nuanced reality comes to light.In this candid conversation, Dr. Mark Cucuzzella, a family medicine physician, and Dr. Tro Kalayjian, board-certified in internal and obesity medicine, draw on decades of clinical experience to examine where GLP-1s truly shine, where they fall short, and why the foundation for lasting health can't come from a prescription alone.They make the case for integrating GLP-1s into a comprehensive care plan, one that addresses nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress. Without these pillars, patients face higher risks of side effects, reduced long-term benefits, and the all-too-common rebound weight gain.In this interview, you'll learn:Which patients benefit most from GLP-1 therapy (and which may not)How “medication stewardship” ensures safe, responsible useWhy starting at the lowest effective dose and tapering mattersHow lifestyle-first programs can match or exceed drug results at a fraction of the costDrs. Cucuzzella and Kalayjian remind us that true success lies in restoring metabolic health and building habits that last long after the injection ends. GLP-1 medications can be powerful allies, but they're not a silver bullet. Without a foundation of nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management, they risk becoming just another short-term fix.Expert Featured:Dr. Mark CucuzzellaWebsite: https://www.drmarksdesk.com/Dr. Tro KalayjianWebsite: https://toward.health/IG: https://www.instagram.com/doctortro/X: https://x.com/DoctorTroResources Mentioned:TOWARD: a metabolic intervention that improves addiction and binge eating symptomshttps://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2025.1612551CMEs Mentioned:Managing Major Mental Illness with Dietary Change: The New Science of Hopehttps://www.mycme.com/courses/managing-major-mental-illness-with-dietary-change-9616Brain Energy: The Metabolic Theory of Mental Illnesshttps://www.mycme.com/courses/brain-energy-the-metabolic-theory-of-mental-illness-9615Follow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.Learn more about metabolic psychiatry and find helpful resources at https://metabolicmind.org/About us:Metabolic Mind is a non-profit initiative of Baszucki Group working to transform the study and treatment of mental disorders by exploring the connection between metabolism and brain health.

In this podcast series, we explore the process of spiritual development through the lens of the Hero's + Heroine's Journey, and why both men and women must understand both sides of the journey to fully connect with Christ and God.Most of us have only been taught one part of the story—the masculine path. But to truly walk in spiritual wholeness, we must rediscover and integrate the feminine path as well. This foundation is key to understanding the spirit of Elijah, the restoration of all things, and what it means to walk in divine union.

If your inner monologue is constantly whispering, “Did I do something wrong?” This one's for you.In today's episode, we're diving into relational anxiety that shows up as self-blame. You know the one: where you feel responsible for everyone else's mood, you apologize before anyone says a word, and conflict makes you want to disappear. Maybe your default is “It's all my fault,” even when it's not. That pattern is what keeps you from feeling comfortable being yourself in the world; it keeps you on alert, and it waters down your relationships. This episode is all about overcoming shame and self-blame, and why it's so important to heal your relationships.We'll explore:The roots of self-blame and hyper-responsibility in relationshipsHow over-apologizing and people-pleasing quietly erode intimacyWhat's actually going on in your nervous system when you spiralThe difference between shame and guilt and why it mattersHow to hold your emotional reality and your partner's without collapsingPractical tools to break the “it's all my fault” loop, build self-trust, and come back to your centerYou'll also hear some of my own stories around this pattern: how it showed up in past dynamics and how I've worked with it through somatic and relational healing.If you often wonder…→ “Are they mad at me?”→ “Why do I feel so responsible for how everyone else feels?”→ “How can I express my needs without feeling like a burden?”… This conversation will help you feel seen and supported, and offer real practices to help you shift the dynamic.RESOURCES & LINKS: ✨ Book a free 1:1 consultation with Jenelle: Limited space available ✨ DM me on Instagram with your takeaways → @jenelleannette ✨ Or send me a message via email → hello@jenelleannette.com
