In this solo episode, Jay closes out her three-part series on the "Hey, Wait" method with the final and most tender step: actually saying "Hey, Wait" to another person. Whether you're someone who keeps the peace at all costs or someone who only speaks up when you're already at a boiling point, this practice will help you to find a healthy space in between. A way to stay with yourself while staying true to your relationships. A way to speak up without burning it all down. Because "Hey, Wait" isn't just about learning how to use your voice. It's about learning that your reality matters. In this episode, Jay shares: Why "Hey, Wait" can feel so charged, especially if you're used to staying quiet How to turn "Hey, Wait" into a true bid for connection How to start practicing in low-stakes situations before tackling the bigger ones What to say next, and how to keep the moment grounded in your truth In this episode, Jay also opens up about her course, Yours Truly: a self-paced program designed to help you come home to yourself in your nervous system, your voice, and your relationships.

Unpacking Your Life (feat. Jane Bond) | #9
Welcome back to the "Hey, Wait" Podcast, hosted by embodiment coach, educator, and author Jay Moon Fields. In each episode she shares stories, insights, interviews, and practical tools to help you shift how you show up in your relationships, and in your life. In today's episode, Jay is joined by Jane Bond. Jane is a powerhouse in luxury real estate (Naples, NYC, Philly), and a fierce advocate for women. Having "unpacked her life," Jane now inspires women through her podcast, Unpack Your Life, to pause and take an honest look at their lives—and to ask themselves if what they're going through is allowing for their growth or keeping them hostage? When her career, marriage, finances, and ego all collapsed at once, Jane had to let go of everything she thought made her who she was. In this major "Hey wait" moment, she stepped out of performance and into reckoning—with her truth, her fear, and her power. Together, she and Jay talk about what it takes to stop performing and to start living from presence. Except it took two takes…because the first time Jay and Jane sat down to record the interview, they both fell into old patterns of performing and people pleasing, and it didn't come across as authentically as they knew they were capable of being. So two women who, in earlier chapters of their lives, would've either kept the inauthentic version or thrown it in the trash and walked away, instead chose to stay, have an honest and hard conversation and give themselves and each other a second chance. Give it a listen to see what came out of their second conversation. And Hey, Wait!

Key Takeaways: Unpacking your life is about reclaiming your power & walking through fear If this chapter of your life isn't serving you, then rewrite it Withholding your truth disconnects you from the people who need to show up in your life The fear of being misunderstood, being too much, and of starting over again Self worth doesn't need an audience You don't owe the world your whole story to be impactful Connect with Jane Bond: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janebond___/ Unpack Your Life Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/unpack-your-life/id1789819668 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/janebondtbg/ Real Estate Website: https://www.compass.com/agents/jane-bond/ Connect with Jay: Official Website: https://jaymoonfields.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heywaitwithjay/ "Yours Truly" Coaching Program: https://jaymoonfields.com/coaching Jay Moon Fields' Book "Teaching People Not Poses": https://www.amazon.com/Teaching-People-Not-Poses-Principles/dp/1478326913/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaymoonfields

Your First Questions & Your Second Steps | #6
Welcome back to the "Hey, Wait" Podcast, hosted by embodiment coach, educator, and author Jay Moon Fields. Each episode we'll be sharing stories, insights, interviews, and practical tools to help you shift how you show up in your relationships, and in your life. In today's episode, Jay Moon Fields returns solo to the mic, answering listener questions for the first time as she dives deeper into the essential– yet often challenging– Second Step of the "Hey, Wait" process. Emily, a listener of the podcast, recently faced an upsetting moment at choir practice when someone took her stand without asking. Many of us have been in situations where we later wished we had spoken up, asserted ourselves, or found our voice. In this episode, Jay uses Emily's story as a starting point to explore somatic experiencing– a practice that uses imagination to unlock bodily sensations– and explains how it can help Emily (and you!) move forward with more agency. As we learned in Episode One, the "Hey, Wait" process has three key steps. Today, we focus on Step 2: Pausing– the moment you stop reacting and start tuning into your inner experience. It's a deceptively difficult practice, requiring you to actually feel what's going on inside. Jay breaks it down with clarity and compassion, offering real tools to help you integrate this step into your own life. And Hey, Wait!

Microdosing Change: with Lisa Wimberger | #5
Welcome back to the "Hey, Wait" Podcast, hosted by embodiment coach, educator, and author Jay Moon Fields. Each episode we'll be sharing stories, insights, interviews, and practical tools to help you shift how you show up in your relationships, and in your life. In today's episode, Jay Moon Fields is joined by author, speaker, and founder of the Neurosculpting Institute, Lisa Wimberger. On her fifteenth birthday Lisa was–quite literally–struck by lightning. As a result of the trauma, she began to experience frequent seizures which were debilitating and which forced her to regularly confront near-death experiences. Lisa's "Hey, Wait" moment happened when she became a mother, and she realized that she needed to put herself first, so that she could put her daughter first. She began studying Neuroscience and Neuroplasticity, and she learned to train her brain and nervous system to override the seizures. Due to the techniques she now teaches through Neurosculpting, her last seizure was twenty years ago. Since then, Lisa's Neurosculpting technique has transformed countless lives. Throughout the episode, Lisa is incredibly generous in sharing personal anecdotes to express the value she's gained from her practice, including stories that she has never spoken in public before now. If you'd like to learn more about Neurosculpting, and to access Free Meditations and more, or to sign up for Lisa's "Congruence Retreat" coming this June 20-22, 2025, head over to the official Neurosculpting website at https://www.neurosculpting.com/.
