    Learning to Be Present

    On this episode of Next Level: Good Vibes Only, Jessica and Darren Salquist reflect on the journey of becoming—how growth doesn’t happen all at once, but one intentional step at a time. Inspired by the Chinese proverb, “To get through the hardest journey, we need only take one step at a time, but we must keep stepping,” this conversation explores the power of momentum, self-awareness, and learning to celebrate how far you’ve already come. Through honest reflection, they unpack the tension between our past, present, and future selves—and how easy it is to become so focused on who we’re trying to become that we forget to fully live in the present moment. Jessica and Darren share personal stories about transformation, journaling, meditation, fitness, identity shifts, healthy aging, and the quiet victories that often go unnoticed by everyone else but deeply matter to us. No matter where you are in your journey, this episode will encourage you to keep stepping, keep growing, and keep showing up for the life you’re creating.

    Master Life Projects with Kelly Dean Yagelniski

    On this episode of Next Level: Good Vibes Only, Jessica and Darren Salquist sit down with Kelly Dean Yagelniski to explore a powerful idea—what if you treated your life like your most important project? Drawing from his book Master Life Projects, Kelly shares how so many of us are highly effective in managing work, deadlines, and responsibilities—yet struggle to bring that same structure and intentionality into our personal lives.   After facing his own challenges with stress, health, and misalignment, Kelly realized that life deserves the same level of planning, clarity, and execution as any professional project. This conversation dives into how to break big goals into 30-60-90 day “life projects,” focus on what truly matters, and build momentum through small, consistent daily actions. Together, they unpack the biggest obstacles people face—low energy, too many priorities, and self-doubt—and introduce a powerful tool: the Minimum Viable Project. Instead of waiting for the perfect plan, it’s about taking the smallest meaningful step forward today. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, scattered, or stuck in “I’ll get to it someday,” this episode will help you simplify, focus, and start designing your life with intention. Your life isn’t something you manage later—it’s the project you build right now.

    The Power of Retreat: Slowing Down to Find Yourself

    On this episode of Next Level: Good Vibes Only, Jessica and Darren Salquist reflect on a deeply personal experience—Jessica’s recent spiritual retreat in Mexico and the powerful lessons that came from stepping away from everyday life to reconnect with herself. Set beneath sacred mountains and rooted in ancient traditions, the retreat created space for stillness, breathwork, reflection, and deep inner work. Jessica shares what it was like to slow down, listen to her body, and let go of the stories and expectations that often cloud our sense of clarity. Through practices like journaling, breathwork, sharing circles, and even an intense sweat lodge ceremony, she discovered the power of vulnerability, humility, and trusting the process of transformation. A major takeaway from the experience was the difference between intention and expectation—how approaching life with openness and curiosity allows for deeper growth than trying to control outcomes. The retreat became not just a celebration of a milestone birthday, but a reset for the soul. If you’ve ever felt the need to pause, reconnect with yourself, or explore the power of sacred spaces and intentional reflection, this conversation offers a glimpse into what can happen when you give yourself permission to slow down and listen.
