Ep. 490: Healing the Abandonment Wound
What if the deepest wound you carry isn't about what happened to you—but about whether you ever felt truly held by life itself? In this powerful and intimate conversation, JJ is joined by a longtime soul sister, healer, and registered nurse who shares a deeply transformative experience that healed a lifelong sense of abandonment—not just from people, but from God, Source, and existence itself. After more than 25 years of personal growth, spiritual practice, and emotional work, she realized there was still an existential fracture beneath it all: a quiet belief that life was not fully safe, that love could be given endlessly but not fully received, and that stepping into her full calling might come at a devastating cost. What unfolded during a sacred, carefully held journey became a profound reclamation of safety, trust, and belonging—at the nervous-system and soul level. This episode is not about escapism or quick fixes. It's about: · How early experiences can fracture our sense of safety with life itself · Why control often masks a fear of annihilation or abandonment · What true surrender actually feels like in the body · Healing the relationship with Source beyond religion or belief systems · Learning to receive love after a lifetime of giving · Releasing the fear that being fully seen could destroy you · Embodiment, integration, and lasting nervous-system change JJ also speaks to the importance of integrity, preparation, emotional readiness, and sacred containment—emphasizing that this kind of work is not for everyone, not always, and never casual. At its core, this is a conversation about remembering who you are, restoring trust in life, and discovering that you were never alone—not for a single breath. If you've ever felt: · Like you don't fully belong here · Afraid to take up space or be fully visible · Deeply loving but unable to receive · Spiritually devoted yet quietly disconnected · Called to something more but scared of the cost This episode may speak directly to your heart. This is not an escape from life.It's an invitation into the truth of who you really are. http://Karinrose.love

Ep. 489: The Cost of Always Putting Yourself Last
In this solo episode, JJ explores a pattern she sees repeatedly in women who are deeply caring, self-aware, and ready for healing—yet hesitate when it's time to invest in themselves. Drawing from real conversations with women who are caregivers, over-givers, people-pleasers, and survivors of illness, JJ unpacks the deeper truth beneath statements like "I can't afford it." This episode isn't about money—it's about self-worth, nervous system safety, and the beliefs that quietly keep women putting themselves last. Through the energetic lens of the Year of the Snake and the approaching Fire Horse, JJ explains how awareness alone isn't enough. Healing often requires an embodied choice—a stretch that tells your nervous system, I am worth being supported. In this episode, you'll hear: Why women so often deprioritize their own healing and well-being How abandonment wounds, caregiving roles, and people-pleasing show up around money What not investing in yourself communicates to your body and subconscious Why aligned investment can be a powerful act of re-patterning and self-trust How choosing yourself builds confidence, self-love, and emotional resilience This episode is an invitation to value yourself differently in 2026—not by doing more, but by believing you're worthy of support, healing, and expansion. ✨ If you've been feeling the call to invest in yourself but something keeps stopping you, this conversation may help you understand why—and what's possible on the other side of that choice.

Ep. 488: Homeopathy for Flu Season
JJ reconnects with longtime friend and homeopath Avghi "Avi" Constantinides (yes—at Trader Joe's!) for a timely conversation on natural immune support during the holiday season and beyond. Avghi breaks down what homeopathy is, how it differs from symptom-only approaches, and shares her go-to homeopathic "flu season trio" that many of her clients use for prevention and support. The conversation then expands into entrepreneurship, education, and why responsiveness and follow-up are essential for building a sustainable, heart-centered business. In this episode, you'll hear: How a chance reconnection at Trader Joe's brought Avghi into the West Coast Women Rising community Avghi's origin story: from the UK, to South Africa, to the U.S.—and the life-changing realization that shaped her work What homeopathy really is and how it treats the whole person rather than isolated symptoms What to expect from a first homeopathic consultation—and why it goes deep How emotional and life events often correlate with physical symptoms Avghi's recommended homeopathic flu-season support trio: Influenzinum (homeopathic preparation of the current flu strain) Briar Rose (commonly used for respiratory and chest vulnerability) Thymulin / Thymuline (supporting immune and white blood cell function) How and when to take these remedies, including travel and exposure support Why combo remedies can help—and when individualized care is needed Avghi's community work supporting first responders and clinics during the 2025 California fires Building a business as a solopreneur: Early grassroots marketing before social media Why fast follow-up builds trust (and slow follow-up loses opportunities) The importance of visibility, service, and giving back to your field Educational pathways through Avghi's school—from personal learning to professional practice Why every household should have a basic homeopathic first-aid kit Resources mentioned: Practice: HomeopathyForLife.com School: LASchoolofHomeopathy.com (site name transitioning) Email: avghi@homeopathyforlife.com Homeopathic First Aid List: JJFlizanes.com/firstaid

Ep. 487: Shedding the Skin Needed for 2026
Shedding the Skin Needed to Set the Stage for 2026 As we step into 2026, it's tempting to rush ahead with goals, intentions, and action. But energetically, we're still in a powerful transition period. Although the calendar year has changed, the Fire Horse doesn't officially arrive until February 17, meaning we're still completing the work of the Year of the Snake. In this solo episode, JJ explores why this moment is less about acceleration—and more about discernment, honesty, and conscious completion. The Year of the Snake asks us to shed old skins: identities, coping strategies, emotional patterns, and roles that once served us but now limit who we're becoming. Before the Fire Horse ignites momentum, visibility, and bold action, we're being invited to get clean, aligned, and intentional. In this episode, you'll hear: Why 2026 begins as a threshold year, not a starting line Key themes of the Year of the Snake and what we're still meant to release What Fire Horse energy amplifies—and why preparation matters The three essential lessons to integrate before February 17 How to move into 2026 authentically, intentionally, creatively, and passionately Why shedding before sprinting creates sustainable momentum This episode is an invitation to slow down just enough to listen—to your body, your nervous system, and your deeper truth—so that when the Fire Horse arrives, you're ready to ride it with clarity instead of chaos. ✨ If you feel the call to shed a skin and enter 2026 more aligned than ever, this conversation will meet you right where you are. http://jjflizanes.com/apply http://jjflizanes.com/14day http://jjflizanes.com/mm

Ep. 485: 5 C's of Flow with Christy Whitman
In This Episode, You'll Learn Why contrast (the thing you don't want) is not personal—and not a sign you "did it wrong" How survival responses (fight/flight/freeze/fawn) can pull you out of flow automatically Why self-compassion is the "neutralizer" that helps you move from emotional intensity back to steadiness The "three buckets" model: lack → neutrality → abundance How to move from "what I don't want" into true clarity using three powerful questions The difference between observing vs. judging—and how judgment instantly shuts off flow How momentum builds around whatever you focus on (and how to choose differently moment-to-moment) Why you may need to practice the feelings you want (and build new neural pathways) What "command" means through I AM statements How "create" activates imagination and future-self alignment to become a stronger energetic match Ready to practice the 5 C's (and build real momentum toward what you want)? Join JJ's FREE 14-Day Manifestation Challenge starting January 5th. You'll get daily guidance, simple assignments, and practical tools to help you move from contrast into clarity—then command and create from a more aligned, empowered state.
