268 - What I Learned from a Therapist Last Week

Join Jill this week for an impromptu reflection on personal growth, self-perception, and the value of being supported. She shares her recent experiences not as a coach but as a client, opening up about the insights that she gained from two powerful coaching sessions with Dr. Laura Perez and Dr. Georgie Muir (both of whom have actually been on the show before).

With Dr. P, Jill explored the story of Buddha and the demons, definitely an appropriate metaphor for how she has dealt with mom guilt. She realized that her book, which is still forming within her but that she hopes to have out by spring 2026, is an invitation to sit with these feelings, to acknowledge them, and to release them with grace. It’s a project not just for others, but for herself because some stories demand to be written.

Her session with Dr. Georgie was also enlightening for her. Dr. Muir uncovered something perhaps even more personal for Jill: the fear of being seen. Despite years of creating in anonymity, Jill senses a change in the future, a step into more visibility. Through unexpected bodywork exercises, she shares having felt an undeniable release which served as confirmation for her that taking up space isn’t just necessary; it’s safe even though the tension lingers. She encourages listeners to ask themselves what it means to be truly seen, not just by an audience but by ourselves, by our partners, by the people who matter most.

Also stay tuned as Jill provides some info about her upcoming Plot Twist retreat and also offers some quick updates such as how she is still sticking to a carnivore diet which has continued to improve her life. This is an informative, insightful, and intimate episode of Be YOU that you will not want to miss!
