    Stop Settling: How to Be Bolder, More Confident & Go After What You Want with Jen Cohen

    What would change if you stopped waiting to be chosen, stopped settling for “good enough,” and started being bold about what you actually want? In this episode, Jenn sits down with Jen Cohen, four-time bestselling author, serial entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and host of the Habits and Hustle podcast, for a conversation about ambition, resilience, confidence, relationships, and the habits that help us create a life we actually want. Jen shares how fitness became the foundation for her discipline and mental strength, why resilience matters more than avoiding failure, and why boldness is a skill you can build through small, consistent actions. Jenn and Jen also get into the deeper side of success—including what happens when your drive and ambition start affecting your relationships, why connection is something neither of them is willing to sacrifice, and the importance of knowing your worth personally and professionally. They also talk about dating, self-abandonment, rejection versus regret, taking control of your own life, and why “you have to start” even when you don't feel ready. Jen's advice? Build the muscle of boldness, make the ask, take the risk, and keep going. If you’re ambitious, stuck in “what if,” afraid of rejection, or simply ready to stop playing small, this conversation will challenge you to get out of your own way—and start creating the life you actually want.

    You Don’t Want Love- You Want To Be Picked So You Feel Worthy

    Do you find yourself obsessing over someone’s texts, analyzing their behavior, or feeling an enormous sense of relief when they finally give you attention? You may think you’re looking for love, but sometimes the deeper need is to feel chosen—and to use someone else’s interest as proof that you’re worthy. In this video, psychotherapist Jenn Pinkerton explores what happens when being chosen starts to feel like proof that you matter. She breaks down how to recognize when you’re trying to earn someone’s approval, how to pause before reacting to uncertainty, and how to evaluate whether the relationship in front of you can actually meet your needs. Pasted text You’ll learn how to stop confusing reassurance with security, communicate your needs without overexplaining, tolerate uncertainty without abandoning yourself, and let someone’s answer inform your choices—not your worth. Because you can deeply want someone and still ask an important question: Do I actually like the relationship I’m being offered? If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly trying to become “easier” to love, waiting for someone to choose you, or questioning your worth when someone pulls away, this video will help you approach dating with more clarity, self-trust, and self-respect.

    People Need You: How to Build Belief, Connection & Impact with Evan Carmichael

    What if the thing holding you back from making a bigger impact isn't a lack of knowledge—but a lack of belief in yourself? In this episode, Jenn sits down with entrepreneur, author, and speaker Evan Carmichael to explore the powerful intersection between belief and connection. Evan shares why we can “borrow belief” from the people around us, why telling your story can create deeper connection, and how vulnerability can actually strengthen your professional impact. Together, Jenn and Evan discuss why therapists, entrepreneurs, and other professionals can sometimes hide behind their credentials instead of letting people see the person behind the expertise. They explore how sharing your story can help the right people find you, why connection is especially important in an age of AI, and how self-awareness can help you understand the beliefs and stories driving your decisions. Evan also shares practical advice for building a digital presence, including creating content around the questions people are already asking, sharing your “foundation story,” and remembering that people need your message. The conversation dives into purpose versus proving your worth, introversion and visibility, serving others, and why understanding your own “why” can completely change the way you show up. Whether you're a therapist building your professional presence, an entrepreneur trying to grow your impact, or simply someone who knows you have more to offer but keeps getting in your own way, this conversation is a reminder that you don't have to become someone else to make an impact. You have to believe that what you have to offer matters—and have the courage to let people see it.

    How to Complain Without Hurting Your Partner

    Do you struggle to bring up problems with your partner without the conversation turning into an argument?

In this video, psychotherapist Jenn Pinkerton explains 3 shifts that can help you communicate concerns without hurting your partner or abandoning your own needs. You’ll learn how to describe what actually happened instead of attacking your partner’s character, take your power in the pause when you’re triggered, and turn a complaint into a clear request that gives both people something to work with. Jenn also breaks down how to repair when you’ve already said something hurtful, how to listen without becoming defensive, and why respectful communication doesn’t mean making yourself smaller or avoiding difficult conversations. You can be angry, have standards, and tell the truth about what hurts without humiliating the person you love. Whether you’re dealing with recurring arguments, feeling unheard, struggling to ask for what you need, or simply want to communicate more effectively, this video will give you practical tools for speaking up while staying connected.

    We Don't Agree on How Often to Have Sex

    What happens when one partner wants sex more often than the other? One person starts feeling rejected, while the other starts feeling pressured—and eventually, even affection can begin to feel like an obligation. In this video, psychotherapist Jenn Pinkerton explains 3 important shifts couples can make when they have different levels of sexual desire. You’ll learn why there isn’t one “correct” amount of sex, how spontaneous and responsive desire work, and why understanding what’s happening underneath the difference is more productive than arguing about the number. Pasted text Jenn also explains how to handle a “not tonight” without turning disappointment into pressure, how to talk openly about your turn-ons and turn-offs, and how to create opportunities for intimacy while protecting both partners’ right to choose. The goal isn’t to eliminate differences in desire—it’s to create a sexual relationship where both people can be honest, heard, and respected. Whether you’re struggling with mismatched libidos, feeling rejected, feeling pressured, or simply wanting to improve your sexual connection, this conversation will give you practical ways to talk about sex without blame, shame, or keeping score.

    Raising Mentally Strong Kids

    Want to raise mentally strong kids without becoming the parent who is constantly yelling, correcting, or trying to control every situation? Mental strength isn’t built through harshness. It’s built through connection, emotional regulation, healthy boundaries, and giving kids opportunities to handle hard things. In this video, psychotherapist Jenn Pinkerton shares 3 shifts that can change the way you parent: slowing down enough to understand what’s actually happening, taking your power in the pause when you get triggered, and supporting your child without taking over their life. You’ll learn how to stay connected while still holding boundaries, regulate yourself before reacting, repair after you lose your patience, and help your child navigate disappointment, mistakes, and difficult emotions without shame. Jenn also explains why letting kids struggle appropriately can build confidence and why asking for help is a form of strength—not failure. Because your child shouldn’t have to brace for you while they’re learning how to face the world. The goal isn’t perfect parenting. It’s becoming aware enough to pause, reconnect, and come back ready to lead. SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL Healthy relationships don't happen by accident.

    How to Reclaim Your Sexual Pleasure with Dr. Laurie Mintz

    What if your sex life isn't supposed to feel like something you simply perform—but something you actually experience? In this episode, Jenn sits down with psychologist, author, and sex therapist Dr. Laurie Mintz, whose work focuses on helping people live more authentic, meaningful, joyful, and sexually satisfying lives. Together, they unpack why so many women struggle with orgasm, desire, and feeling fully present during sex—and why the problem may have far less to do with being “broken” than women have been taught to believe. Jenn and Dr. Mintz discuss the orgasm gap, the difference between being desirable and actually experiencing desire, how porn and cultural expectations shape our ideas about sex, and why authentic sexual pleasure starts with knowing your own body. They also talk about embodiment, responsive desire, sexual pain, shame, menopause, and the ways medications such as SSRIs can affect sexual functioning. Dr. Mintz also shares what she has learned from her own experience with SSRI-related orgasm loss and discusses resources she has developed through Mojo, including Find Your Orgasm and Regain Your Orgasm. The conversation explores why sexual pleasure deserves to be treated as an important part of women's health—and why being able to talk openly about sex is such an essential part of having fulfilling intimacy. Whether you're struggling to orgasm, experiencing low or changing desire, dealing with sexual pain, navigating menopause or medication side effects, or simply wanting a healthier relationship with your sexuality, this conversation offers an honest and empowering look at what it means to reclaim pleasure and become more connected to your own body.

    I've Always Regretted My Marriage (Should I Leave?)

    Have you ever looked at your marriage and wondered, “Did I marry the wrong person?” Maybe nothing is terribly wrong from the outside, but you feel lonely, disconnected, resentful, or unsure whether the life you built is actually the life you want.In this video, psychotherapist Jenn Pinkerton explores marital regret and the difference between lost connection and fundamental incompatibility. You'll learn why “I regret my marriage” can mean many different things, how to get specific about what you're actually regretting, and why identifying the problem is an important first step before deciding what comes next. Jenn also explains how to recognize the difference between a relationship that has become disconnected and one where core values, needs, or life directions may genuinely be incompatible. You'll learn why change requires more than promises, what observable effort and accountability can look like, and how honest conversations, intentional connection, couples therapy, or discernment counseling may help create clarity.Most importantly, this isn't about telling you to stay or leave. It's about slowing down enough to understand what you're actually experiencing and making a decision based on reality—not guilt, fear, exhaustion, or the assumption that because you once chose your marriage, you can never question it.Whether you've quietly regretted your marriage for years, feel more like roommates than partners, or simply wonder whether your connection can be rebuilt, this conversation will help you ask better questions before making a life-changing decision.SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNELHealthy relationships don't happen by accident.
