What happens when you stop letting your thoughts run the show and start using your mind as a powerful ally instead?
In this deeply grounded and heartfelt episode of Live Your Jam, Ellen McGinnis is joined by a very special guest, her son, Nate Putman, for a real, relatable conversation about mindfulness, mental loops, overthinking, and emotional awareness in everyday life.
Together, they explore how our thoughts shape our stress, our confidence, and our choices. Ellen breaks down the difference between mindfulness and meditation in a way that feels practical and accessible, not mystical or intimidating. She shares personal stories, simple techniques, and a powerful five second breath reset that anyone can use to calm the nervous system in real time.
This episode is especially powerful for teens, athletes, and high performers navigating pressure, injury, expectations, and the constant noise of modern life. It is also a must listen for anyone who feels trapped in overthinking or emotional rumination.
You will walk away with tools to quiet the mental chatter, reconnect with your intuition, and live with greater clarity, peace, and purpose.
When the mind becomes your ally instead of your dictator, everything changes.
