Spirituality, Curiosity, and the Unknown

A Work in Progress

When I first started this podcast, I wasn’t trying to become an expert or pretend I had life figured out. I simply needed a place to think out loud, process my experiences, and grow. In this episode, I’m sharing the real reason this podcast exists. We talk about anxiety, personal growth, learning to become a better communicator, healing from the past, and how becoming a wife and mom challenged me in ways I never expected. I also share why I believe growth isn’t about becoming perfect—it’s about becoming more aware, one small step at a time. If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only one struggling, overthinking, or trying to become a better version of yourself, I hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not alone. I’d love to hear your story. What’s one area of your life you’re actively working on right now? Reach out and let’s continue the conversation. https://linktr.ee/Jschwartz615

Life Is Happening Right Now

A simple moment caught me off guard today. While cleaning the house and listening to music, I found myself thinking about how quickly life moves. One minute our children are little, and the next we’re wondering where the years went. In this episode, I reflect on time, gratitude, mindfulness, and the question of how we want to be remembered. It’s easy to get caught up in worries about the future or regrets from the past, but life is happening right now—in the ordinary moments we often overlook. This isn’t an episode about having all the answers. It’s a reminder to slow down, appreciate the people we love, and pay attention to the chapter we’re living before it becomes a memory. Take a breath, look around, and don’t miss the moment you’re in. https://linktr.ee/Jschwartz615

Who Do I Become When I’m Triggered?

After a stressful day that included a child’s surgery, a pharmacy drive-thru meltdown, and one very rude stranger, I found myself asking a question I can’t stop thinking about: who shows up when life pushes our buttons? In this episode, I talk about anger, overwhelm, parenting, anxiety, and the space between feeling an emotion and reacting to it. I share a real-life moment that tested my patience, what it taught me about growth, and why I no longer think healing means never getting triggered. Maybe the goal isn’t perfection. Maybe it’s learning to pause, get curious, and choose our response instead of letting every emotion take the wheel. If you’ve ever lost your temper, wanted to say something you’ll regret, or wondered why certain situations hit so hard, this episode is for you.

Dear Inner Critic

In this episode, I’m talking about something most of us know all too well: the inner critic. You know that voice. The one that tells you you’re not doing enough, not good enough, or that somehow everyone else has life figured out except you. After a recent meditation, I started paying closer attention to my own inner critic and realized something surprising. Maybe the goal isn’t to silence that voice completely. Maybe the goal is to understand it, challenge it, and learn to respond with a little more compassion. Join me as I explore self-awareness, automatic negative thoughts, mindfulness, nervous system healing, and the ongoing practice of turning self-criticism into self-kindness. No magic buttons. No perfect solutions. Just one imperfect human figuring it out in real time. If you’ve ever been your own worst critic, this episode is for you.

A Spiritual Rabbit Hole

Lately I’ve found myself going down a spiritual rabbit hole, asking questions I never thought I’d be asking. If souls exist, if reincarnation is real, if everything is connected the way so many spiritual traditions suggest… then who is running the show? In this episode, I explore some of the biggest questions I’ve been wrestling with lately: consciousness, free will, God, reincarnation, mindfulness, and the strange feeling that there may be something much bigger happening behind the scenes of our everyday lives. This isn’t about convincing anyone what to believe. It’s not about religion versus spirituality. It’s simply an open-minded conversation about curiosity, wonder, and the questions that keep me staring at the ceiling at 2 a.m. As always, I’m not an expert—just a work in progress, figuring it out one question at a time. If you’ve ever wondered why we’re here, where our thoughts come from, or whether we’re all connected in ways we don’t fully understand, this episode is for you.
