Listen "Deeper Roots; Digging Into The Lore"
Episode Synopsis
This week, Jess is digging into the lore. She gets real about how personal memories shape who we are—especially when it comes to motherhood and healing deep emotional wounds. Jess shares a story about her son that haunted her for years, a time when depression had her drowning in shame and self-doubt. It wasn’t pretty. But through therapy, self-reflection, and an unexpected reality check from her own kid, she found a way to break free from that weight. This is a raw, unfiltered look at how our connections with others can heal us in ways we never see coming. So, grab a cup of coffee, or a glass of wine, and let’s unpack those defining moments together.Chapters00:04 - Intro12:35 - Facing the Past: A Journey Through Therapy15:39 - Healing and Memory28:58 - Emerging from Darkness: A Journey of Transformation31:47 - Finding Hope in Unexpected PlacesAbout JessJess is a storyteller and seeker of meaningful connections in Texas by way of Baton Rouge, LA.
