    How to Get Clear on Your 2026 Vision (And Build the Circle That Supports It)

    Welcome back, friends! This is episode three of my 2026 Clarity + Vision Mini Series, and today we’re getting intentional about your vision, your identity, and the people you’re surrounding yourself with as you move into 2026. If you’ve listened to the first two episodes, you’ve already done some powerful work. You’ve cleared distractions. You’ve gotten honest about who you are in this season. Now it’s time to declare the vision because your next level is not coming from hustling harder. It’s coming from being in the right rooms, with the right people, who reflect the woman you’re becoming. This episode is all about: Claiming your 2026 identity Getting clear on the circle that actually supports that vision And recognizing when it’s time to change environments, raise standards, or even build the thing that doesn’t exist yet Identity Comes Before Strategy (Every. Single. Time.) You cannot create 2026 results with a 2022 identity. You can’t step into your next level while staying surrounded by people who live at your old one. And you definitely can’t expand in rooms that make you feel small. I walk you through a powerful visualization: Who is the woman you’re becoming in 2026? What does she believe? What does she say yes to? What does she walk away from? Who does she trust and who does she run with? Because clarity isn’t just about what you’re building. It’s about who you’re becoming while you build it. Your Environment Matters More Than You Think We talk about: Outgrowing familiar spaces (even when they aren’t “bad”) Changing rooms, communities, or industries Setting new standards for who gets access to you: clients, collaborators, even family And why sometimes the discomfort is the confirmation, not the warning I also share more of my own pivot, why I changed environments, why it didn’t make sense to other people, and why I knew there was a bigger version of me that needed room to breathe. If You Can’t Find It… You Might Be Meant to Build It Some of the most aligned things in your life won’t already exist. That might mean: Starting the community you wish you had Creating the offer past-you desperately needed Hosting the event you’ve been waiting for someone else to plan Or finally owning the message you want to be known for If you keep feeling like something’s missing, it’s probably because you’re the one meant to create it. Journal Prompts from This Episode ✍️ Grab a pen and sit with these: Who is the 2026 version of me and what does she believe about herself? Write it as if it’s already true. Who are three people I want to be in the room with next year? And how can you get closer to those rooms? What rooms am I outgrowing? What am I meant to build that doesn’t currently exist? If you’re inspired to share your reflections, you can email them to me. I’d love to spotlight what women are calling in, releasing, and building. A Little Teaser 👀 All of this work? It honestly feels like it deserves a retreat. There is a 2026 Cabo Retreat waitlist open right now, and if you’re craving expansion, clarity, and the kind of space that changes you. You’ll want to get on it. I’m sending you so much love. Get in the room. Send the scary DM. Build the thing. And step into 2026 like you mean it. Let’s go!

    Clear the Blocks…How to Tell the Difference Between a Distraction and an Opportunity

    Hey friend! This episode is one of my favorites because it cracks open a hard truth: you’re not stuck. You’re distracted. And when you don’t fully trust yourself yet, distractions can look exactly like opportunities. That’s where discernment comes in. Here’s what I’m breaking down inside this conversation: The Discernment Gap That space between what you say you want… and what you actually choose. This gap is where overwhelm, overcommitment, and comparison quietly run your life. What Distractions Actually Look Like They’re sneaky. They show up as shiny offers, misaligned mentors, comparison spirals, old habits you’ve outgrown, or the simple “let me check my phone real quick.” (Hi, it’s me.) What Real Opportunity Feels Like Expansion. Truth. Alignment. Sometimes scary, yes. But it activates you, not drains you. Your body always knows the difference. Listening to Your Body + Authority Whether you’re emotional, sacral, splenic, ego, projector, or reflector, your inner guidance is always speaking. Your intuition is your actual strategy. When You Realize You Entered the Wrong Room That sinking feeling? That “oh no… this isn’t what I thought it would be”? Been there. Recently. And it taught me, again, to stop outsourcing my knowing.   Your Reflection Ritual Give yourself five minutes and get honest: What distractions am I choosing over my goals? What opportunities have I avoided because they scared me? What does expansion feel like in my body? What does contraction feel like and where is it showing up? What’s one distraction I’m ready to release before the year ends? This work builds clarity. Clarity builds momentum. And momentum is exactly where we’re heading next, in Episode 3, where we tap into your 2026 vision.

    Claim the Truth: Who You Are Right Now… and Who You’re Becoming

    Welcome back to Unscripted, babe. We’re kicking off a 4-part end-of-year series—the 2026 Clarity + Visibility Series—and we’re starting exactly where all real transformation begins: radical truth. In this episode, I’m inviting you into a full-body honesty check. Not the version of you Instagram wants. Not the version of you from last year. The version of you sitting right here, right now. The one navigating real life, real emotions, real resistance… and real desires. Because if you want to build something real in 2026, you cannot build it on delusion. You can only build it from your truth. Inside this raw, grounded, fully unscripted episode, I break down: 🔥 What “claiming your truth” actually looks like Why honesty—not perfection, not performance—is the foundation for clarity, direction, and aligned decision-making. 🔥 How to identify the season you’re actually in Stop comparing your life to someone in a completely different season. Slowing down, grinding, pivoting, resting—your season matters. 🔥 The messy middle we all try to avoid Shame. Avoidance. Overcompensation. Burnout. I’ve lived it. You’ve lived it. The only way through it is truth. 🔥 Why honesty collapses the gap between you and your desires Pretending drains you. Truth expands you—emotionally, energetically, creatively. 🔥 Human Design cues for tuning into your real identity Generators/ManGens, Manifestors, Projectors, Reflectors—I break down how each of us can feel our truth through our body’s cues. 🔥 A conversation about desire most women avoid Not the “acceptable” desires. The real ones. The bold ones. The ones you haven’t said out loud because people might think you’re crazy. 🔥 The identity you must release before 2026 You cannot carry outdated, misaligned identities into a year you want to transform. We talk about identity deaths, pivots, and letting go of who you used to be. WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH ✔ A clearer understanding of who you actually are in this season ✔ Permission to stop pretending you’re somewhere you’re not ✔ Awareness of the desires you’ve been suppressing ✔ The first step toward building something real and sustainable in 2026 ✔ Five deep journal prompts to anchor your truth work This is foundational. This is the work that makes everything else in your business, brand, leadership, and life possible. Download the free 2026 Clarity & Visibility Journal Prompt (Part 1) to walk through powerful reflection questions on honesty, identity, desires, and who you’re becoming as you step into your next season.

    Stop Playing Small: Consistency, Confidence & Going Pro with Your Vision

    I’m literally recording this from the beach after a full-on downpour, because consistency doesn’t always look perfect—and that’s part of what I want to talk about today. Lately I’ve been thinking a LOT about what it actually takes to go pro with your vision heading into 2026, and why so many of you keep getting in your own way. You say you’re meant for more, you want visibility, legacy, impact… but you’re still playing small because: You’re not actually celebrating your wins (I used to hide mine too). You’re comparing your journey to people in a completely different season. You’re confusing mentorship with buying every course out of fear. You’re waiting for clarity—when clarity only comes from action. Here’s what I’ve learned through marriage planning, long-distance, parenting through injuries, business highs/lows—and still showing the fuck up: 👉 Your nervous system + habits are your foundation. Without that, every storm knocks you over. 👉Your small wins ARE the momentum. When you don’t honor them, you block bigger blessings. 👉 If nobody knows who you are, they can’t find you. Visibility is not optional in 2026. 👉 Scaling isn’t the only way. Some of us are built for intimate, high-touch leadership. 👉 You don’t have to go fast—you just have to go forward. I also get real about Human Design moments (my fellow Manifesting Generators and Projectors—this one’s for you) and why I’m finally reopening my 1:1 coaching spots for high-level thought leaders in 2026. If you're ready to get visible, build something that actually feels aligned, and have someone help you hold the vision when life is lifing—this episode is for you. 👇 WHAT I MENTIONED  1:1 Coaching Spots for 2026 Thought Leaders Low-Ticket PR Strategy Package (get on 10+ podcasts) FREE Podcast Playbook – no email, just click & read DM me what landed. Tell me the win you’ve been hiding. Ask for help—it’s the biggest flex there is. Blinders on. Full focus. Let’s f*cking go.

    Stop Waiting for January: How High-Achieving Women Build Visibility, Confidence, and Momentum NOW

    If you’ve been telling yourself you’ll “start fresh in January,” this episode is your wake-up call. Most high-potential women don’t rest at the end of the year — they retreat. They hide. They pause their presence. They convince themselves they’re “preparing.” Meanwhile, the women who rise? They move now. They build visibility while the world is quiet. They take up space before they feel perfectly ready. In this raw, honest solo episode, Jessica shares: •⁠  ⁠Why waiting for January keeps you invisible and stuck •⁠  ⁠The identity shift required to build real confidence •⁠  ⁠How visibility actually gets created (hint: not in your notes app) •⁠  ⁠Her recent $20K branding experience & what it revealed about leadership and self-trust •⁠  ⁠What becoming undeniable in your space really looks like •⁠  ⁠How to step into the woman you want to be — publicly and before you feel “ready” If you’re done hiding, done rehearsing your potential, and ready to actually be seen, this episode will activate you into momentum — right now, not someday. Resources & Next Steps: Ready to become the woman your brand has been waiting for? DM me READY on Instagram @jessicaburgio and I’ll send the private mentorship details.

    The Power of Visibility: How Showing Up Online Creates Life-Changing Opportunities

    This episode is all about the magic of simply showing up. I dropped right in with a  powerful story about my online  friend Lisa—a woman who I’ve never met but have been connected with for years (thanks to this podcast) She attributed listening to my show as a catalyst for her taking. A k control of her life and how she turned a personal setback into a thriving, in-person business, all because she decided to be visible online and take ACTION. Her journey is the perfect reminder that you never know who’s watching, who’s listening, who you might be impacting or who’s about to DM you with an opportunity that could change everything. I lovingly remind you that visibility beats vanity every time. Forget the follower count, downloads and the story views—what matters is the person on the other side of the screen who needs your story, your perspective, your encouragement. Even if at first it’s only a few people. I shared my personal beliefs on why building a personal brand isn’t about pretty fonts or a perfect feed; it’s more about consistency, connection, and the courage to share your voice even when it feels uncomfortable or awkward. Fav moments: ✨ How podcasting gave me a voice, a network, and a business that’s built on trust at scale ✨ The simple 30-day visibility challenge that will change your life and your business ✨ Why long-form content (like podcasts, Substack, and email) is your secret weapon for impact and longevity ✨ Tangible tips for repurposing content and owning your distribution so you’re never at the mercy of social media algorithms I also share a special invitation to my Creative Content Collective Live workshop event happening October 18th in San Diego—a live, in-the-room experience to help you create content, build your brand, and connect with other bold entrepreneurs ready to be seen. YOU WON’T WANT TO MISS THIS!! Listen in if you’ve ever wondered whether all your effort is worth it, if you’ve been hiding behind perfectionism, or if you just need a little fire lit under you to get back out there. Because every time you speak, post, or publish, you’re building your brand—whether you feel ready or not. Let’s stay connected: 🎟️ Grab your ticket to the Creative Content Collective (October 18, San Diego) - bit.ly/ccc-oct-18 🎧 Need help launching your podcast?
