Episode 07: Soul Reset: Finding Magic in the Muck
In this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, Jennifer sits down with her dear friend and co-creator, Julie Ann, to explore what it really means to find magic in the muck. Together, they share deeply personal stories of physical challenges, soul awakenings, and the profound wisdom that comes when we pause, go inward, and listen. From the beaches of Sayulita to the inner landscapes of the soul, they unpack how slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and tuning into our soul’s compass can transform not just how we feel—but how we live.
Whether you’re knee-deep in life’s muck or longing for a deeper sense of alignment, this episode offers insight, inspiration, and a gentle nudge toward your own reset.
Key Takeaways:
The magic is already inside you — external solutions can distract us from the inner wisdom we truly need.
The power of the sacred pause — stepping away from noise and busyness creates space for clarity and soul reconnection.
Your environment matters — being surrounded by nature can profoundly shift your state of mind and body.
A true reset begins with asking, “What do I really want?” and listening deeply for your soul’s answer.
Living from your soul’s compass brings more ease, joy, and lightness into everyday life.
We are nature — remembering our connection to the elements helps restore balance and purpose.
