    31: Community: Deep Dive into Nature's Medicine with Franny Farmacy's Erin Dymond

    “With the plant, when you come in here and you talk to us about what you’re going through, we're able to put together products for you. That puts some of the control back in your hands.” Our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond are joined by the incredible Erin Dymond, whose story is as rich and deep as the soil that nurtures the plants she champions. They traverse the often-misunderstood lines between cannabinoids such as CBD and Delta-8 THC, unearthing their synergistic effects on ailments that touch us all. From the struggles of sleepless nights to the throes of menstrual discomfort, Erin's expertise bridges the gap between pharmaceutical dependencies and the empowering world of plant-based alternatives. Our hosts and Erin talk about Georgia's hemp legislation post-2018 Farm Bill as well as the looming shadow of SB 494 and its ramifications for local cultivators and healers. The dialogue further unfolds, shedding light on the diverse tapestry of cannabinoids beyond THC and CBD. Closing this chapter, these three Good Enough Goddesses relish the personal tales of cannabis. They navigate the landscape of responsible consumption and the importance of education. The discussion blossoms into an ode to the women trailblazing through the cannabis domain and the strength found in consumer activism. All this and more in this episode of The Good Enough Podcast!

    30: CBD: Getting to the Root of Feeling Good with Sarah Birney

    “I believe (maybe to a fault) that we can take care of ourselves and heal. And there's a level to accepting where you're at. And if you have a migraine, you will literally do anything, even if it's hard drugs to get rid of them. And that's okay, too. But when you don't have that migraine, can we dig in and really figure out what's going on?” Unlock the secrets to a balanced life as our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond journey with Sarah Birney, Co-founder of Blooming Botanicals, who shares her inspiring health odyssey and how it blossomed into an innovative CBD venture. This episode peels back the layers of societal stigmas attached to CBD, urging a fresh perspective on self-care and the power of informed health choices. It's a poignant reminder of the empowerment that comes from truly listening to our bodies and embracing natural healing solutions. Our hosts and Sarah look into the essence of nourishment beyond the plate, tackling the myths of hydration and the real impact of minerals on our cellular health. Join in as they champion the cause of adding value to your diet and life, rather than succumbing to the pressure of only focusing on elimination, which can be detrimental. What started as a solution to treating her dog’s arthritis (when nothing else did the trick) to now a full business venture, it’s clear that the healing power of CBD is undeniable.

    29: Grief: Tending to Loss with Compassion

    “I think grief is such a practice of being able to be gentle with yourself, honor right where you are, try and do your best, and also know that our best looks different.” Discover the profound intersection of love and grief in this latest episode of The Good Enough Podcast with Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond as they unwrap the complex emotions that come with loss and how they can lead us on a path to healing.

They confront the reality that grief isn't solely tied to the physical absence but also to the emotional spaces within us. From grappling with the end of relationships to revisiting past versions of ourselves, this discussion is a candid exploration of the shifting shapes of heartache and the importance of self-compassion and forgiveness in the face of uncharted emotional terrains. The Good Enough Goddesses celebrate the intricate tapestry of cultural rituals surrounding loss, drawing on the vibrant Mexican Day of the Dead as a beautiful incarnation of collective mourning.

    28: Self-Accountability: Creating Habits to Thrive

    “Whether I chose the veggies over the chips and salsa or chose the soda water over the vodka, I'm like, ‘I will feel so proud, I will feel so accomplished.’ It was so much bigger than really the choice that was right in front of me.” Have you ever whispered a promise into the mirror, only to watch it fade with the steam? Our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond tackle the dance of self-accountability and the profound effect it has on our personal growth in this episode of The Good Enough Podcast. Imagine transforming procrastination into productivity, and old habits into new milestones. Jessica and McKenzie crack open the discussion on setting achievable goals, revealing how small steps can lead to significant changes. Whether it's the emotional turmoil of breaking promises to ourselves or the triumph of returning to commitments, they navigate the mental patterns that shape our habits. With each anecdote and reflection, they underscore the importance of a fresh mindset and self-compassion on this winding road of self-improvement. The Good Enough Goddesses celebrate the beauty of adaptability—how the ritual of cacao and the wisdom of Ayurvedic eating can revitalize our health choices and personal identity. They discuss how embracing a 'flexitarian' approach to life allows us to honor our bodies’ needs without being shackled by rigid labels. May this heart-to-heart be a reminder that authenticity and vulnerability are essential companions on the path where being 'good enough' is not just an affirmation, but a way of life.

    27: Money Blocks: Financial Safety to Self Actualization with Alyssa Cotten

    “Since the dawn of time, there has been enough money to go around. Unfortunately, we have been told stories that there is not enough. And we believe those stories at our core, which then again, disempowers us and keeps us in scarcity, versus taking responsibility of our own well-being and saying, ‘Hey, I'm an empowered individual. I have empowered thoughts, and I'm going to take empowered actions to generate the money to achieve the life that I desire.’” Alyssa Cotten, a brilliant money mindset coach for female entrepreneurs, joins our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond to untangle the web of financial beliefs and behaviors that hold us back. Together, they confront the fears and societal norms that often keep our money matters under wraps, providing a beacon of hope for those looking to redefine their relationship with wealth. The conversation is a journey through the roots of the financial psyche, examining how childhood experiences and ingrained behaviors can dictate our money narratives. Our hosts and Alyssa delve into the depths of money blocks, including imposter syndrome, and their stealthy role in stunting our financial growth. Alyssa's insights into practical strategies like embracing gratitude for bills—yes, even bills!—remind us that our financial decisions can align with inner peace rather than anxiety. This episode isn't just about crunching numbers; it's a holistic approach to recognizing and embracing our true worth. Share this episode with a loved one who may find comfort and inspiration in Alyssa's words, and join the conversation on social media.

    26: Boundaries: Asserting Your Needs and Limits

    “I always hope that the more you can set boundaries for people who maybe aren't used to setting boundaries because of society or the industry they’re in, that it will help them be like, ‘because you were able to do that, it reminded me that I can do that, too.’” Ever find yourself stretched too thin, saying 'yes' when every fiber of your being screams 'no'? You're not alone, and this latest episode of The Good Enough Podcast is a treasure trove of insights on the empowering art of setting boundaries across all the spheres of your life. Our hosts Jessica Armstrong and McKenzie Raymond uncover why establishing lines in the sand is a profound act of self-care and how it teaches the world to honor your worth.

    25: Perfectionism: Worthiness Over Suffering with Helene-Jane Groarke

    “We're so used to being in a society where everything you do needs to have a result, have a product, have something to deliver.
