What if validation, love, and belonging were things you could give yourself? What would change if you could truly see and trust your own magic?

Jessica sits down with writer, creative coach, and TBMer GG Renee for a powerful conversation about family dynamics, self-worth, and creating a life rooted in authenticity rather than external validation.

What if your next best friend is just a ping away?

In this episode, Jessica sits down with Hope and Alyssa, two TBMers who manifested a deep, lifelong friendship after moving to Amsterdam from opposite sides of the world. A heart-led list, a leap of faith, and a shared commitment to their TBM work turned a chance meeting at a playground into a soul-deep bond.

They share updates from the Be Seen Challenge and unpack the subtle ways we hide: people-pleasing, over-explaining, perfectionism, and chasing external validation.

You’re fine…so why do you feel stuck? Where is the fear coming from, even when you know you’re safe?

We’ve never done an episode quite like this before.

We sat down with writer and creative Allie Carr—twice. In October 2025, she was just beginning to emerge from a really difficult chapter. When we spoke again in February 2026, her spark for life was fully back, and the seeds she had planted were unfolding in real time.

In the months between, Allie moved through a Saturn return, career pivots, financial uncertainty, and a deep shedding of who she used to be. What looked like falling apart was actually falling into place.

This conversation is a...
