Join Jill for this heartfelt episode as she discusses the challenging energy that many are feeling post-election, offering guidance on getting through this dense, fog-like atmosphere. She highlights the importance of returning “home” to ourselves - reconnecting with compassion, love, and the truth that lies beyond opinions and judgments.
Reflecting on the nature of compassion, she reminds us that we don’t need to understand someone else’s experience fully to offer empathy; the simple act of compassion can dissolve the barriers that keep us divided. Judgment may divide, but compassion and love have the power to heal and transform.

Listen in this week as Jill brings us back to episode 158 of the podcast in which she shares some personal reflections on codependency, using her experience with chickens as a powerful metaphor. After her podcast gained significant success, ranking in the top 100 out of 2 million shows, Jill discusses a truly humbling moment when she forgot to record an insightful episode, leading her to contemplate the deeper lessons in her life!
She begins by recounting her journey of raising chickens on her 30-acre property in rural Indiana. Through funny and touching stories about bonding with her chickens, Jill explores how her care for them mirrors her tendency to neglect her own needs. This connection serves as a lens for understanding codependency, particularly her struggle with feeling responsible for others' happiness, including her children.
As she learns to care for her chickens without overextending herself, Jill uncovers a critical truth, which is that we often take on others' burdens, believing that we can shield them from pain, with the reality being that this only prolongs their lessons and reinforces our own patterns of guilt. By stepping back and allowing her chickens – and, of course, by extension, her loved ones - to face their challenges, Jill gains clarity on how to foster self-worth and set healthy boundaries.
Tune in for a blend of lighthearted anecdotes and profound insights in this episode, as Jill encourages everyone to reflect on their own relationships and personal growth. Through her honest storytelling, Jill invites us to examine how we care for ourselves and others, while embracing the important lessons that life presents!

Jill takes us back to episode 177 this week in which she delivers a powerful message about having compassion for ourselves, urging us to break free from the relentless cycle of self-criticism and perfectionism. Acknowledging the inner voice that often tells us that we are "not doing it right,” she invites us to challenge that narrative. Rather than constantly trying to "fix" or change ourselves, Jill suggests that the path to true growth and happiness comes from accepting and loving who we are, as we are!
Jill discusses the concept of letting go of the pressure to always improve and instead embracing a gentler, more compassionate approach to personal development. She shares a poignant analogy and compares the effort to heal while still criticizing oneself to trying to cure a wound with the same knife that caused the injury.
This episode of Be You truly emphasizes the importance of nurturing ourselves with love and patience, much like we would a child or a pet, and shifting the focus from achieving an ideal version of ourselves to simply allowing our true selves to emerge!
Tune in and walk away with a renewed perspective on personal growth, one that champions softness, kindness, and the recognition that true progress doesn't come from force but from grace. If you’ve ever felt like you’re not doing enough or not living up to expectations, then this episode is definitely for you!
Show Notes:[01:17] - Jill discusses how self-criticism persists even when we believe that we've tuned it out, resulting in emotional harm.

Tune in to Jill's exploration of the idea of identifying your “doughnut” as she uses her personal journey of temporarily giving up Instagram (her “doughnut”) as an example. Your “doughnut,” as she explains, is something that you are deeply attached to, something that you would be afraid to give up or that you feel you wouldn't be able to. It could be a habit or activity, a substance or a food, or even a digital distraction.
Sharing her experience of temporarily quitting Instagram, she reveals that it was a decision that led her to unexpected lessons about her own habits and emotional needs. She discusses how this break from Instagram exemplified her dependency on social media for dopamine hits and the false sense of connection it provided, making her feel like she had genuine connections and friendships with people whom she really didn't.
She also reflects on how stepping away from Instagram allowed her to recognize the volume of information being consumed on a daily basis and the unnecessary pressures that that placed on her life. Through this process, she discovered newfound peace and clarity, realizing that true connection and fulfillment come from within, rather than through external validation or endless scrolling.
Listen in to gain insights into how identifying and temporarily giving up your own "doughnut" can lead to profound personal growth and lessons about yourself! Jill encourages you to think about what your own “doughnut” might be and how taking a break from it could reveal deeper lessons and benefits you might not have foreseen. Whether it's a food, a habit, or something else, this episode invites you to challenge yourself and embrace the possible change that could result from stepping away from your comfort zone!
Show Notes:[01:34] - The idea of identifying your doughnut challenges you to give up something you’re afraid of giving up, such as sugar or social media.

[07:18] - Jill hesitantly admits feeling sadness and withdrawal from Instagram, realizing that she sought fake connections and FOMO.

[15:04] - We learn that Jill's childhood happiness with sugary snacks was linked to feelings of being loved.
