When High Functioning Becomes Self-Abandonment
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
In this deeply personal continuation of the June theme Burnout & Boundaries, I open up about how I’ve come face-to-face with high-functioning codependency—something I didn’t even know I was still living in until recently. Even after decades of therapy, self-awareness, and teaching mindfulness-based tools, I found myself burned out again. Why? Because I was still unconsciously operating from trauma-driven patterns: over-functioning, anticipating others’ needs, people-pleasing, and believing my worth was tied to how much I could do for everyone else. In this episode, I share: The...

When Doing it All Stops Working
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
In this raw and revealing episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on something many of us silently endure: burnout. After years of over-functioning—building two businesses, being a full-time therapist and mom, content creator, partner, and more—I hit a wall. Again. This time, I couldn't ignore the signs. So I’m sharing what led me here, what I’ve learned about myself in the process, and how I’m courageously choosing to do less in order to live more authentically and sustainably. We’ll explore: The hidden cost of being “high-functioning? Why even values-aligned work can lead...

Don't Delay Living with Dr. Kasim Al-Mashat
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
In this heart-opening episode, I’m joined by Dr. Kasim Al-Mashat, psychologist and MBSR teacher, for a conversation that beautifully bridges science, presence, and the art of being human. Together, we explore what it really means to slow down, befriend our challenges, and stop waiting for life to begin "once things get better." We reflect on our shared mindfulness journey—including how we met at a retreat with Jon Kabat-Zinn 13 years ago—and dive into the difference between living on autopilot and choosing awareness, even in the midst of suffering. From personal stories of healing...

Mind Full or Mindful?
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
This episode is an invitation to pause—and get honest about what you’ve been carrying that’s no longer serving you. Whether it’s old beliefs, unprocessed emotions, habitual overthinking, or that constant striving for the next thing… it’s time to ask: Is this helping me, or is this holding me back? We’re diving deep into the heart of mindfulness—what it really means to be present, to notice without judgment, and to stop outsourcing your happiness to things outside your control.

Happiness Is an Inside Job
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
This week, I’m inviting you into one of the most important conversations we can have: What truly makes you happy? Not the fleeting kind of happiness that comes from vacations, new shoes, or a great dinner out (though those are wonderful too!)—but the kind of happiness that’s sustainable, grounded, and internal. In this episode, I break down: Why we often look outside ourselves to feel good—and why it doesn’t last How disconnection from ourselves keeps us stuck in autopilot The difference between joy, contentment, and fulfillment What the Buddha can teach us about real peace...

When I Thought Slowing Down Might Kill Me
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
This episode kicks off our May theme: “Slow Down, You Move Too Fast.” And wow… this one is personal. I’m sharing the story of my very first meditation — and how, even though it was only 10 minutes, it felt like torture. (Yes, I genuinely thought I might die… and no, I’m not being dramatic.) For most of my life, I didn’t know how to slow down. I was always in motion, chasing the next thing, hoping I’d eventually land in a place of peace, contentment, or security. But what I didn’t realize is that what I was searching for could only be found in the present moment — and I...

What if Being Stuck is Actually an Invitation?
Journey Forward with Joree Rose
In this episode of Journey Forward with Joree Rose, Joree shares a deeply personal reflection on what it means to come back to ourselves—again and again—through the practice of mindfulness. After noticing how easy it is to slip into autopilot and feel disconnected, she made a conscious decision to slow down and return to my foundational tools for presence, awareness, and healing.

info_outlineAfter going through a series of existential and health challenges, Holly Copeland turned to meditation to heal what she had gone through. Recovering from mold poisoning, feeling unfulfilled and disenchanted with a career she had been passionate about, and a marriage that wouldn’t last, she learned how to quiet her mind, and found the alignment and peace she’d been seeking. Turning this newfound personal growth into her new profession, Holly became a coach who helps her clients learn meditation through a nondual awareness approach so that they can know themselves as a fundamentally whole being, dissolving old patterns of the ego and coming into a “true-knowing” nature, which allows them to feel more open and free, with a lens of peace, acceptance and happiness to move through their lives. Holly also guides in breathwork to open chi and release energies, helping others delve into a state of transformation, allowing for reprogramming of old belief systems, along with Biofield Tuning, which clears the traumas and memories we hold in our vibrational field. If you are someone who wants to be inspired on how to be the source of their own healing and happiness through a variety of modalities, then this episode is for you.
About Holly: Holly’s passion lies in helping people discover what it means to step into the flow with life and live in joy and wellbeing while healing their mental, emotional, and physical bodies. Her background weaves certified training in the healing modalities of Breath of Love and Biofield Tuning with Human Potential Coaching, Reiki and Subtle Energy meditation.
With a deep connection to nature from her 25+ year career as a conservation scientist, she founded HeartMind Alchemy to unite ancient wisdom and modern science with three mind-body tools of meditative inquiry, breathwork and vibrational healing to empower clients on their path to human flourishing and upgrading from “ordinary mind" to awake awareness. She guides people out of the muddy waters of the thinking mind to live in flow joyfully and effortlessly from their own inner compass and stable ground of being. She offers vibrational sound healing sessions and coaching to facilitate physical and emotional healing for greater vitality and wellbeing.
