    Unscripted Life Update: Coparenting, Un-Posturing, and Going Viral

    We’re back with another off-the-cuff life update after having a breakdown last weekend that truly set me free. I go into the challenges of coparenting, transition days, the inner collapse that always follows, and letting it all be as it is. It’s a new level of freedom when I began to allow myself to fall apart without fixing it, labeling it, or rushing myself back into productivity. I share about the moment I craved connection and the viral post that followed, reminding me of the power that comes with vulnerability and allowing myself to be seen in the messy truth of it all. While putting myself on display in these moments is hard, I can’t deny that “un-posturing” feels like such a necessary part of my healing, and apparently the healing of thousands of others (based on my viral IG post…). Highlights: (05:02) - The internal collapse that happens every time my son leaves (09:27) - What it felt like to let the “mess” actually just be part of the natural cycle of coparenting (14:19) - Keeping it real when people ask me (and I ask me) if coparenting gets easier with time (19:51) - How my years of posturing was a survival mechanism and the ways I did this with myself (24:40) - When going viral opens the floodgates to lots of resonance and support - and of course the “trolls” who need love the most (29:35) - Why the messy, imperfect version of you is the one people actually connect with Resources: Join SJ’s 2027 Winter Writing Retreat: Earlybird pricing happening Now with 15% off using code WINTER15 Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.

    The Postpartum Journey They Never Saw Coming w/ Sandy & Wade Critides - (PART 2)

    *TRIGGER WARNING - mention of postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis In this episode, I’m back with Sandy and Wade for part two of their story, and this one goes much deeper. Sandy shares what happened after the birth of their son, from extreme sleep deprivation and non-epileptic seizures to resurfaced childhood trauma, postpartum psychosis, and multiple psychiatric hospitalizations. We delicately revisit the horrific lack of care, Sandy’s retraumatization, and the numerous times Wade had to bust her out back into real life where the future was more than uncertain. We talk about what it took to keep going when life felt completely unrecognizable, what this season demanded from their marriage and family, and the role faith and healing have played in rebuilding their lives. This is a story about surviving the impossible, fighting for Sandy’s recovery in a system that is more harmful than helpful, and allowing an unimaginably difficult chapter to give them a whole new level of strength and connection. Highlights: (08:01) - The birth experience that marked the beginning of a much bigger postpartum crisis (11:57) - The moment Sandy asked for prayer because she knew she could not carry this alone (13:04) - The traumatizing childhood memory that resurfaced after 24 years and changed everything (18:08) - When postpartum psychosis was finally named and the psych ward nightmares (25:46) - The point where the whole family was running on empty and knew they needed more help (34:24) - One year later: deeper faith, a stronger marriage, and turning pain into purpose Additional Links: Learn more about The Bridge Recovery Center Follow Sandy & Wade on Instagram Tune into their podcast, Getting Magnetic to listen to their 3-part series about Sandy’s birth and postpartum journey: Listen on Apple Listen on Spotify Resources: Join SJ’s 2027 Winter Writing Retreat: Earlybird pricing happening Now with 15% off using code WINTER15 Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.

    Burning the Blueprint: Finances, Family, and Faith w/ Sandy & Wade Critides (PART 1)

    Such an honor to interview my dear friends, Sandy & Wade Critides - entrepreneurs, mentors, and parents of three who’ve spent the last decade building businesses and intentionally designing a life around freedom, family, faith, and purpose. These two incredible humans came into my life only a few short years ago, but have expanded me in massive ways just by being in their presence. They operate on a frequency individually and as a family that is against what we are taught in society, taking leaps that are considered illogical and carving paths that most may consider high risk. We dive into the life events that have inspired them to burn the “safe” templates we were handed and and the belief systems they’ve developed to lead with grace, unwavering faith, and conviction in everything they do. Highlights: (05:44) - How one Instagram hashtag led to a friendship that changed everything (15:00) - Baby best friends, family history, and the love story that technically started in the womb (18:02) - The devastating loss that ultimately redirected Sandy’s entire life (25:20) - The text that finally admitted what both of them had been feeling (31:00) - The Matterhorn proposal that felt like a movie (49:11) - The accidental LinkedIn post that got Wade fired and pushed them fully into entrepreneurship Additional Links: Follow Sandy & Wade on Instagram Tune into their podcast, Getting Magnetic to listen to their 3-part series about Sandy’s birth and postpartum journey: Listen on Apple Listen on Spotify Resources: Join SJ’s 2027 Winter Writing Retreat: Earlybird pricing happening Now with 15% off using code WINTER15 Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.

    Book 2 Sneak Peek - An Unplanned Detour: Fear, Sex & A French Chateau

    This episode feels especially vulnerable. I’m sharing another excerpt from my upcoming book, this time exploring intimacy, sexuality, shame, worthiness and what it means to stop measuring myself by whether someone chooses me…plus a very exciting next “chapter” for me (pun intended). Tune into my essay, An Unplanned Detour, a deeply personal piece about physical intimacy, a scar that tells a deep story, and finally learning to separate my worth from rejection, relationships, and other people’s choices. This is about allowing ourselves to tell the truth, meet the hidden parts of who we are and love ourselves without containment. Highlights: (05:14) - The Chateau I stalked for years somehow became real (10:30) - A 2am email, a dream opportunity, and the power of finally stepping back into the author in me (15:47) - The moment a mark on my body became about so much more than a scar (20:13) - I am not measured by who chooses me, rejects me or walks away (23:09) - What changed when I realized I had been hiding my own pain from myself Resources: Join SJ’s 2027 Winter Writing Retreat: Earlybird pricing happening Now with 15% off using code WINTER15 Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.

    Using Social Media for Good: Creating Actual Change for Domestic Abuse Survivors with Chelsey De Groot (PART 2)

    What happens when you stop letting fear cripple you and open up about everything you’ve endured? Chances are you’re going to create more change than staying silent. Join us for Part 2 of my powerful interview with Advocate and Leadership Coach, Chelsey De Groot in our Landon Hail Press Author Community. In this episode, I’m joined by Chelsey and members of our author community for a deeply impactful conversation about courage, visibility, and what happens in real life when we let our real lives shape the stories we tell - even if we only have a few hundred social media followers. We talk about sharing sensitive content, building genuine connections instead of chasing viral trends, and why the right message reaching one person can matter more than thousands of views. We also explore identity, advocacy, discomfort, and the choice to keep showing up even when being seen feels terrifying. Highlights: (03:37) - How one judge’s response showed Chelsey that her story could create real change (09:18) - Why the most powerful content often comes directly from the life you’re already living (11:50) - The unexpected conversation with a police officer that proved one post can have massive impact (19:30) - How manufacturing content often means you’re holding back in your real life (23:22) - What actually changes when you finally decide your voice deserves to be heard (31:26) - Owning your story without shrinking, apologizing, or waiting for the perfect moment Additional links: Visit Chelsey’s website for Support & Leadership Resources: rootsandrisecc.com Follow Chelsey on Instagram for her “Dear Officer” series and more!

    Using Social Media for Good: Creating Actual Change for Domestic Abuse Survivors with Chelsey De Groot (PART 1)

    I’m joined by author and advocate, Chelsey De Groot for Part 1 of a Guest Interview in the Landon Hail Press Author Community where we talk about the actual difference between impact and entertainment. Chelsey opens up about experiencing domestic violence with her daughter’s father, unexpectedly losing her job, and choosing to finally publish her book, realizing that the hardest disruption in her life became a powerful invitation to move forward. We talk about advocacy, policy change, and how the biggest shifts often happen from the smallest social media accounts because intention will always be more effective than popularity…in real life, that is. Chelsey’s story is a reminder that moving the needle to create systemic change isn’t about followers and likes - it shows up in challenged policies, difficult conversations, and the courage your honesty gives someone else - in Chelsey’s case: Judges, Crowns, and Police Officers. Highlights: (03:52) Why advocacy often requires saying the uncomfortable truth (05:24) Destruction becoming the green light to take the leap (07:56) How rejection opened up channels for change (16:15) The experiences that transformed personal pain into public advocacy (19:50) How one person’s story can influence training, policy, and real impact (24:21) The very bold (and very risky) social media decision that had messages flooding in Additional links: Visit Chelsey’s website for Support & Leadership Resources Follow Chelsey on Instagram for her “Dear Officer” series and more!

    Confusion or Denial? Your “I Don’t Know” Is Actually Fear

    Get ready for a sneak peek into my powerful session for my dear friend, Princeton Clark’s “Breakthrough Leadership Summit”, where I had the honor of speaking to his incredible community. I get really honest about the BS we tell ourselves and how 99% of the time, “I don’t know” means: “I DO know…and I’m terrified.” You’ll hear about the biggest catalyst in my life that led me to leaving corporate, being thrust into motherhood, finally writing the book I postponed for ten years, and building a publishing company from a truth I almost kept hidden. We explore people-pleasing, vulnerability, self-trust, and why your biggest breakthrough might begin with one uncomfortable conversation. Highlights: (03:01) - Why nobody else can make you braver (06:27) - “I don’t know” is actually fear in disguise (10:04) - The real cost of keeping everyone comfortable (17:05) - Making my son my reason, not my excuse (28:04) - The beliefs, safety, and conditions behind your story (42:28) - The wall in your mind may have an open door Additional links: Follow Princeton Clark on Instagram *DM him ‘Breakthrough’ for the link to the full virtual summit!

    The “M” Word: Why Wealth & Minimalism Are Not Mutually Exclusive

    Taking it back to my book, “The Less Effect: Design Your Life For Happiness & Purpose”, diving into Chapter 2: The “M” Word. We unpack two of my favorite subjects: money and minimalism, and why choosing a life of less does not mean settling for less income, opportunity, or impact. Minimalism is about removing what no longer fits so you can create more room for what genuinely matters. We touch on how my own inherited beliefs around money were shaped, challenged, and eventually transformed. From manifestation rituals that got me nowhere to the practical power of clearing physical, emotional, and mental clutter - this episode is a reminder that abundance and simplicity can absolutely co-exist. Highlights: (01:39) - Why minimalism and wealth are not opposites (03:31) - Getting curious: Questioning the money beliefs you inherited (05:27) - Giving yourself permission to want more (07:06) - How negative money beliefs quietly limit your potential (08:18) - The manifestation lesson that changed everything (10:13) - The hill I will die on: Creating space leads to your greatest abundance Resources: Join SJ’s 2027 Winter Writing Retreat: Earlybird pricing happening Now with 15% off using code WNTER15 Follow SJ on InstagramDownload the Free Identity WorkbookGrab my SLAY YOUR STORY⚔🔥 Storytelling Masterclass here.
