Is our vessel clogged up and blocking the messages? What if we spent as much time listening as we do talking? Try this on and see how it fits for you because there’s no right or wrong way to pray.

In this episode, Holly helps us explore: What are we unknowingly sacrificing in order to fit in? Do I know how it feels to truly belong? What is fawn avoidance and people pleasing? Necessary endings lead to new unimagined begi...2023-01-231h 01Be You Podcast155 - It’s Mid-Month of a New Year… NOW WHAT?!Jill continues the discussion around how to call in your desires for the new year without having New Year’s resolutions and provides two very practical ways to expand on what you’ve already done with her on Be You.

It's like trying to hold something in a container already full to its brim. What's the payoff we're addicted to that keeps us from truly letting US off the hook? Why is it so hard to give us what we say everyone else deserves? How will our life change when we truly forgive ourselves? In this episode, Jill shares why so...2022-11-2837 minBe You Podcast134 - Why We Critique and Mock Confident WomenWe all do this. We encounter a woman who exudes confidence and instead of seeing them for who they are, we feel attacked. There’s like a secret code we live by as women where we play small, hide, and consciously choose to bury our own confidence. When we do that, we are not living life fully self-expressed. But when women start breaking that code, there will be others who feel threatened. In this episode of Be You, I share personal experiences of how I have felt attacked by the confidence of other women. I also share th...2022-05-3026 minBe You Podcast111 - "Meet Jill's life Coach Christine Hassler" She talks mom guilt, perfectionism, marriage, control and moreChristine Hassler is one of the best life coaches in the entire world.

Angie only brings herself because that’s the only person she knows how to be. What attracted me to her is the secret to her success: she’s truly herself. The goal is to Be You.

This is why she is an influencer without trying. This...2021-12-131h 10Be You Podcast81 - Proudly Being Too Much and High MaintenanceI have been guilty of buying into the programming that it is bad to be high maintenance. Have you? The term has this negative connotation and we judge other women for seeming to be “too much.” But secretly we want the things we want. Why should we be ashamed of that? In this episode, I admit that this is something I’m working on and practicing daily. I encourage you to do the same. Stop apologizing for wanting the things you want, even if they seem to be too much. Don’t deny yourself the things that make you happy ou...2021-07-2922 minBe You Podcast80 - How My Multi-Million Dollar Network Marketing Career Really EndedNot everything has to be let go or erased, yet everything from the past that holds some sort of emotional charge and brings back painful memories, does deserve to be revisited so we can make peace with it. It is crucial to process things that happen to you. Trust me, I’ve lived with resentment and unprocessed anger. It’s not worth it. And to be perfectly honest, it’s easy to let your ego take over and hold on tight to that resentment. But that’s what this episode is about. Today, I’m laying it all out on the tab...2021-07-2647 minBe You Podcast79 - Erika Alaura: How to Access Your Direct Line to the DivineI have been so excited for this episode with guest Erika Alaura.

I love just having a conversation with you. But I do tend to have an outline of bullet points as I prepare each discussion. Today is different. This episode isn’t edited and I have no outline to guide me. It is truly a stream of consciousness and freeflow. This topic is hard. From someone who admittedly used to be extremely judgemental regarding divorce, I know that this is a trigger for a lot of people. But today, I share with you my experience with divorce. Divo...2021-07-191h 01Be You Podcast77 - God GogglesWe’ve discussed the question, “Where was God in that situation?” when thinking about past experiences. This is an important question to ask, but what about the present moment? I heard a friend call this “God Goggles,” and that term has changed my way of thinking in profound ways. Now we can look at current situations, people who are dear to us, and even at ourselves through the lens of our Creator. This lens is one of love and you will find yourself throwing judgement out the window. In today’s episode, we’re starting the conversation about God Goggles in ref...2021-07-1528 minBe You Podcast76 - How to Stop Chasing the Bucket ListIn this quick episode, I’m shaking things up a bit. I was recently asked to write an article for a magazine about goals and bucket lists. They wanted to know how to achieve these lofty goals, but I wasn’t feeling called to take that approach. Instead, I wrote an article about making yourself the bucket list. Don’t forget that I am partnering with Supercast for a spin-off channel which will give you more access to me and even more content that you won’t find here on the podcast. It’s so much of a d...2021-07-1215 minBe You Podcast75 - Kelly Brock: Leaving Certainty, Following Intuition, and Finding YOUYou know when you stumble across something and it feels meant to be? It is meant to be! That’s what happened when I stumbled across the work that today’s guest is doing. I am thrilled to have Kelly Brock join the Be You Collective today. There’s a reason I was drawn and called to her and after you hear her story, you’ll know why. ------------------ The Be You Podcast by coach and spirituality and wellness enthusiast Jill Herman is all about women helping women to unbecome everything they thoug...2021-07-081h 00Be You Podcast74 - Emotional Dumping, Oversharing, and Energy VampiresI used to be this way and it isn’t something I’m proud of. I was showing up as an emotional dumper, oversharer, and total energy vampire. What does that mean? Well that’s what this episode is all about. It could be that you are like this or that you care about someone who is. In this episode, we discuss what it means to overshare, which is different from drama and gossip. I also give you tools for your toolbox on how to talk to someone you care about who tends to overshare and dump their emotions on you...2021-07-0519 minBe You Podcast73 - What It Takes to Have a Top Podcast or Successful ANYTHINGWhatever it is you are being called to do, do it. That’s what this whole episode is about. I started this podcast with no plan or outline. But what I did have was a calling to start and the commitment to consistency. Now Be You Podcast has turned into something bigger than I ever imagined. What is holding you back from being successful? I’m not talking about just in business or hosting a podcast. It could be literally ANYTHING. What are you being called to do and what is it that’s stopping you? I know that it is...2021-07-0131 minBe You Podcast72 - Who Would You Be Without That Belief?If I asked you what your core beliefs are, what would you say? What are they? Can you even answer that question? What if I told you that what you think are your core beliefs might be hiding the truth? Today’s episode, we dive into subconscious thoughts, effort, and energy that shows our true core beliefs. After all the work I had done for years, I’m just discovering things about my own core beliefs and the fear that is hidden behind them. For example, I’ve always been a perfectionist. Turns out that the cor...2021-06-2829 minBe You Podcast71 - The Truth About LiesI am now the first to admit that I used to be a “liar, liar, pants on fire.” Not my proudest accomplishment, but having learned so many things about myself, I now know why I would lie and how to have uncomfortable conversations with other people when I know they aren’t being truthful. We have all lied. And if you say you have never lied… you’re lying. I used to justify my habit because they weren’t “big” lies and I did not tell them with the intent to hurt anyone. But even using the term “l...2021-06-2419 minBe You Podcast70 - Kelli Tennant: When Good Girls Remember Who the F They AreToday’s guest reminds us that “None of us are perfect and we are perfect in that,” in this raw and inspiring episode. I found Kelli Tennant by listening to her Top 50 podcast The Kelli Show and absolutely falling in love with it. I have loved everything about her and her energy and how she is showing up on this planet. The coolest thing is that I reached out to her on Instagram as someone she doesn’t know and she immediately opened her arms and said yes. I am so thrilled and honored to have her here. ...2021-06-211h 06Be You Podcast68 - Same Lesson, Different ClassroomYou know when we experience those whispers and lessons time and time again and somehow we still say, “Oh shit. I forgot?” Things will keep repeating themselves until we truly learn them and then we will be tested. Well, that’s what happened to me. I was tested and I failed miserably. Although looking back at my experience today makes me laugh and likely will make you laugh, too, the lesson is clear. In my case, I knew better but I still didn’t follow my intuition. So in today’s episode, I share how I ignored th...2021-06-1432 minBe You Podcast67 - Worry is a Magnet For All That You FearI am confident that many if not most of us worry. Everyone worries to different extremes, but if you are not the type of person who worries, I can’t relate. But what does that worrying mean and what can we do about it? In this episode, we discuss what worrying is actually doing to our minds and bodies. Remember that there is only love and fear, so where does worry fit in? It certainly doesn’t come from love and when we worry we are calling out and beckoning the things we stress over right...2021-06-1030 minBe You Podcast66 - Michelle Pfile: Binging, Grief, and Breaking Up with OverachievingWhat happens when we ignore our grief and choose to numb instead? What does it mean when we are binge-eating but we are living the picture-perfect life? Why do we continue to miss out on life for the sake of success? There’s a lot going on in this episode and I am thrilled to be having this real conversation with Michelle Pfile. We decided together for this interview to not have any direction and let it unfold naturally and we discovered that so much wanted to come out. Michelle is a successful business owner who...2021-06-0819 minBe You Podcast65 - Why We Critique and Mock Confident WomenWe all do this. We encounter a woman who exudes confidence and instead of seeing them for who they are, we feel attacked. There’s like a secret code we live by as women where we play small, hide, and consciously choose to bury our own confidence. When we do that, we are not living life fully self-expressed. But when women start breaking that code, there will be others who feel threatened. In this episode of Be You, I share personal experiences of how I have felt attacked by the confidence of other women. I als...2021-06-0326 minBe You Podcast64 - Old Maps, Leaky Anger, and Projection, OH MY!What does it mean to use old maps and to leak our energy? I will admit that I had no idea what any of that meant until recently but when I learned what it means, I know that I have been guilty of it for a long time. This episode is not one that I really want to do, but I know that it is what’s right to talk about today. In typical Be You fashion, I’m uncomfortable, honest, and raw as I’m doing this difficult work alongside you. In this episode, we disc...2021-05-3146 minBe You Podcast63 - Stop Letting Them Tell You How to THINKSociety often tells us how we should think and feel. I’ve been guilty of judging others for things I have no business judging them for. And I’ve definitely been on the other side of things: being judged for what I believe and how I feel. In today’s episode, we discuss the desire for everyone to think for themselves. There are two sides to every argument and we need to be able to judge for ourselves and make our own decisions. This episode may be polarizing and triggering for some of you and that’s...2021-05-2726 minBe You Podcast62 - The Question I Wish I Had Asked Long AgoIn this podcast journey, every now and then I have an experience and I just know I need to bring it to Be You. Today’s episode comes from a conversation with a friend and the question that was asked of her that stopped her dead in her tracks. It did that to me, too, and it all comes full circle. I’ve talked about in past episodes about finding the evidence in experiences of signs and the hand of our creator. And this question is exactly what I wish I had asked myself a long time ago. 2021-05-2514 minBe You Podcast61 - Haunted to Healed – My Abortion StoryI hope that we can get to the point where we can honor the journeys of other people while honoring our own truth and let both be true at the same time. That being said, in this extremely raw episode, I’m going someplace that I did not expect to go on the podcast yet. I felt the nudge and heard the whisper and as uncomfortable as I am, this episode is meant to happen now. You’re here because you read the title, or you are triggered by the title, or you are carrying grief...2021-05-2046 minBe You Podcast60 - I Wish I Let Myself Be HappierThe idea for this episode was inspired by a text conversation with a dear friend. Isn’t it funny how things like that happen? I knew immediately that I needed to talk about it in today’s episode and that is the idea of choosing happiness. Many of us, myself included, have lived our lives not accessing the happiness that is right there. It is right there in front of us and we can actually choose it. But as with so many other things, we let our brains get in the way and we let our w...2021-05-1826 minBe You Podcast59 - When Friends Can’t Give You What You WantThe more I have grown and accepted myself, the more confident I have become. And with that confidence, I have needed less support from others. Yes, I still need my people to cheer me on, but before I started this work, I wanted everyone in my corner and on my side. Over the years I have chased friendships with people who were not truly my people and reflecting back in this episode, you’ll find that you might be hanging on as well. There are so many routes we can take on this topic, but in...2021-05-1325 minBe You Podcast58 - The Losing Game of Compromising YOU to Make Them HappyYou will not believe what happened to me. I was given an opportunity to make a really big choice for YOU, the Be You Collective and it was hard, but I set a firm boundary. You see, if I can’t be the type of person who puts into practice the things I’m telling you to work on, then I don’t deserve your company. So today, I took a risk and I feel great about it. In today’s episode, I share an experience I had where I was faced with making a decision...2021-05-1121 minBe You Podcast57 - Four Simple Phrases That Will Heal You and The WorldHave you ever heard of Ho’oponopono? I’ve heard about it many times, but until recently, I just wasn’t ready to actually learn more about it. But through the guidance of a coach, I looked more into it and put it into practice. Immediately, I was blown away. In today’s episode, I share the story behind the Ho’oponopono practice. What is it? Why is it important? Why should you consider it? How can you heal yourself and affect other people? Ultimately, everything you do and every experience you have is in your mind...2021-05-0615 minBe You Podcast56 - 3 Reasons You’ll Want to Start Somatic WorkAfter last week’s amazing episodes with Jenn Kautsch, I want to take a moment to talk about somatic work. I know it seems like a tough topic after the recent gut punch you may have experienced with uncomfortable episodes, but I promise that it is a really light discussion. A light episode on a hard topic. Today isn’t about how to process trauma; it’s about why you deserve to move through it. Remember that in this Be You Collective, we are excavating our true selves. These uncomfortable topics are part of it, but let...2021-05-0428 minBe You Podcast55 - Jenn Kautsch: The Exciting Freedom That Sober Living Can BringWelcoming back Jenn Kautsch for another amazing episode, we dive into what you can do about your relationship with alcohol.

In this episode, Jenn Kautsch joins me and it is a real gift. But know that some gifts come in the form of triggers, challenges, and discomfort. Today we are talking about a sensitive topic: the gray area of drinking alcohol. It’s not really a problem. Or is it? There’s so much to learn and I am so excited to have Jenn on the show today. Sober Sis founder, Jenn...2021-04-2759 minBe You Podcast53 - Follow the Nudge ESPECIALLY When There’s No GuaranteeWhat is something you are feeling a nudge about? Sometimes we get these ideas, thoughts, and feelings about doing something but we hold ourselves back from doing it. This is usually out of fear and it is totally understandable. Risks can be hard to take but I’m here to tell you that we all take risks in every decision we make. So knowing that what is that one thing that you always think about? The thing that you want to do but are afraid to move forward with? In this quick episode, I give you...2021-04-2215 minBe You Podcast52 - Head Trash EncoreAs we grow and evolve, it is crucial to revisit some topics. These topics may look different for each person, but what I know to be true is that we all deal with head trash. That’s why I’ve decided to post episode 103 here as an encore episode, but with a little twist. What I have discovered is that through this journey, I’ve learned even more about this topic of head trash and listening to this episode again has brand new meaning. “Head Trash” is the most downloaded episode to date and it surprised me as it is a prett...2021-04-2054 minBe You Podcast51 - Tiffany Carter: You Don’t Have to Mimic ANYONE ELSE to Find Huge SuccessWhat an amazing way to start this next chapter after the first 50 episodes. I was recently a guest on Project Me with Tiffany Carter and I knew immediately that I needed her here on Be You. I am honored to have spent over an hour on this interview with her. It felt less like an interview and more like conversations with a great friend. Tiffany Carter is the host of Project Me podcast and a business coach for entrepreneurs. She takes the mystery out of making BIG money. She uses a magnetic combination of her cl...2021-04-151h 16Be You Podcast50 - Ten Questions Your Highest Self Wants to Be AskedToday is the day we celebrate 50 episodes of the Be You Podcast! My vibe and energy are so high and I am downright giddy. In this episode, I thank those who have helped me along this journey, share this milestone with you who have helped make this possible, and encourage you to follow your intuition like I did. It hasn’t all been easy, but it has been so worth it. By acknowledging my fear and pushing through it, I’ve made it here to this highly significant episode and I get to share it with you. 2021-04-1346 minBe You Podcast49 - When We Call Them Givers But They’re Unknowingly TakersIn true Be You Podcast fashion, we’re getting a little uncomfortable today. You’re probably looking at the title and thinking, “Well, that’s not too bad, Jill. How is that uncomfortable?” It can be, because today I am challenging your belief system on the topic of givers and takers. Through personal stories and experiences, I demonstrate in this episode the many ways we can show up as givers and takers. It’s not always cut and dry, but most of the time is much deeper than that. We’ll talk about “taker mentality,” guilt friendships...2021-04-0821 minBe You Podcast48 - Why Won’t They Apologize? The Hidden Depth Under the I’m SorryWhy is it so difficult for some of us to say, “I'm sorry?” Why do we sometimes feel like we need to justify it? I’ve shown up this way. It is so easy to fall into that pattern of saying sorry but not truly apologizing in a way that shows empathy or acknowledges the other person’s feelings in any way. Why is it so hard for some of us to show empathy and acknowledge their pain even when we don’t understand or agree? In this episode, we dig into what a good apology loo...2021-04-0626 minBe You Podcast47 - Carah Elizabeth: The Inner Child: Discovering the Wisdom of Your BodyAre you ready for a new favorite Be You Podcast episode?

Are we using it as a weapon to judge others? Believe me when I say that there are many arenas in this world where elitism shows up. And I’ve been there. I’ve been the one being judged and I have been the one doing the judging. Most of the time it comes from a good place, but when your ego becomes involved, you have to be careful.

Now, I’m better about this in the last year or so, but because I’ve discovered why I am chronically late. It is a form of self-sabotage.

Even if you are not a chronical...2021-03-2316 minBe You Podcast43 - Coming Home to Your True SelfAs I was contemplating this episode and deciding on the topic of discussion, it was given to me. We already know about triggers and our inner child and looking inward. We know about all of that. But why are we doing this? Why are we going through coaching and personal development? We don’t need to be improved. We talk a lot about excavating the true self here on the Be You Podcast. That’s the real work we’re doing. Because typical coaching is an attempt to improve the false self. That self isn’t really u...2021-03-1825 minBe You Podcast42 - Being Willing to Be a BeginnerSometimes our intuition tells us something we don’t want to hear.

At this point, you know that I embrace that. But along the way, I’ve learned that one thing that can be extremely uncomfortable is considering that I might be wrong about something.

Some are able to hide them better than others, but we all have them. For so many years, I wasn’t listening to my triggers. But what I’ve learned is that my triggers are smoke signals. They are huge billboards, road signs, and flares pointing to my wounds. And those wounds wanted and needed to be healed. Triggers aren’t bad. They’re actually gifts. By observing our own triggers, we can be guided to the wounds that need the work. And by doing that work...2021-02-0220 minBe You Podcast29 - The Illusion of ControlAre you a control freak?
