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. GG shares how growing up with a mother with undiagnosed mental illness shaped her relationship with safety, people-pleasing, achievement, love, and her sense of self. Through therapy, writing, and TBM, she began uncovering the core belief underneath so many of her patterns: that something was fundamentally wrong with her.
They explore why understanding your patterns isn’t always enough to change them, how self-trust can transform your relationship with money and uncertainty, and how to value your gifts without needing external validation. GG also shares her journey from corporate life to a creative career, redefining discipline as devotion, manifesting her book, and embracing her sensitivity, imagination, and slower pace as strengths.
If you’ve ever felt too sensitive, too behind, or like you need to prove your worth before you can receive what you desire, this conversation will show you what becomes possible when you learn to create safety from within.
