    EP 041 LETTING GO: The Surprisingly Deep Wisdom of No. 2 with Angela Jamieson

    In this episode of Nourish Me, JoAnne sits down with author, engineer, publisher, and creator Angela Jamieson to talk about her hilariously insightful book, Using Number Two to Get to Number One: The Shockingly Insightful Full-of-Crap Self-Help Book. And yes—they talk about poop. A lot. Angela is the bestselling author of Using No. 2 to Get to No. 1: The Shockingly Insightful, Full-of-Crap Self-Help Book (https://mybook.to/2to1book), a humorous and thought-provoking guide that uses one of life's most universal experiences to explore life, including topics such as connection, failure, diversity, and of course… letting go. A former petroleum engineer turned speaker, publisher, and founder of Relaxed Productivity, Angela helps people let go of perfection, reconnect with what truly matters, and create lives that feel calmer, more meaningful, and a whole lot more fun. Beneath the humor in this episode is a surprisingly meaningful conversation about how we move through life: what we take in, how we digest our experiences, what we learn from them, and—perhaps most importantly—what we need to release. Angela shares the childhood experiences that inspired the book, including her father’s infamous toilet-paper rationing system, her mother’s concern about constipation, and the many stories that eventually convinced her that digestion might just be the perfect metaphor for personal growth. Expect plenty of laughter, a few unforgettable bathroom stories, and some surprisingly profound wisdom about becoming who you’re meant to be.

    EP 040 LET YOUR SOUL BLOOM: Finding Healing in the Flower Fields with Stephanie Khoury

    Can flowers heal us? Can nature help us rediscover who we really are? In this inspiring episode of Nourish Me, JoAnne Pavin visits Peaceful Petals Flower Farm in Marengo, Illinois, to spend the day with founder Stephanie Khoury, who courageously left a successful corporate marketing career to follow a calling that transformed her life. Together, we explore how slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and trusting the seasons of life can lead us back to purpose, joy, and true well-being. Surrounded by thousands of blooming flowers, we talk about: 🌸 Leaving corporate burnout behind to pursue a meaningful life 🌿 Why nature is one of our greatest forms of medicine 🌼 The healing power of flowers, gardening, and being fully present 💛 Redefining success beyond titles, money, and achievement 🌱What a tiny flower seed can teach us about resilience, growth, and becoming who we were always meant to be 🦋 How the garden mirrors our own lives—from planting and pruning to blooming and letting go The Short Story of a Flower Seed A tiny flower seed holds everything it needs within itself to become something beautiful. It doesn't look like much-small, fragile, often forgotten in the soil. But inside that humble shell is the entire blueprint for a bloom. It waits in darkness. It rests in stillness. And when the time is right-when conditions align with care, warmth, water, and light-it begins to break open. Not because something's wrong... but because that's how it grows. It pushes through the dirt, toward light it has never seen, trusting something within is guiding it. And eventually, it blooms. Fully. Wildly. Gently. Not because it became something else, but because it became what it already was.

    EP 034 Beauty in Balance: Beyond the Chair with Kelly Stobart

    In this episode, JoAnne is joined by her lifelong friend, Kelly Stobart—an incredibly talented stylist, educator, and creative force in the beauty industry with over 35 years of experience. Kelly’s journey has taken her from some of Chicago’s most prestigious salons to international training with the most respected names in the industry, including Vidal Sassoon and the legendary Oribe Canales. Her work has even extended to styling for runway shows in Paris and New York, bringing a global perspective to everything she does. But beyond her impressive credentials, Kelly brings something even more powerful to her work—a deep understanding that what happens behind the chair is about far more than hair. It’s about connection, healing, creativity, and helping people feel seen. In the upcoming episode we talk about self-care for caregivers, energy exchange, burnout, healing rituals, creativity, and why taking care of yourself first is essential if you want to truly serve others. This is an inspiring conversation about resilience, friendship, feminine wisdom, and the kind of transformation that happens from the inside out.
