Don't quit fighting for yourself.   I know it can be discouraging. Trust me, I know that feeling more than most people do. It can be the hardest thing you do.   But accepting "life sentence" is worse.   Keep fighting. Keep standing up for yourself.

The winter is a time for reflection, learning, shedding, and evolving. In this episode I share with you my journey through my own personal winter. Throughout this conversation I offer ideas for you to identify places you want change, and how to make it happen.

059: I Don’t Do Overwhelm

June 29, 2022 01:58 - 34 minutes - 31.5 MB

“There’s a time in your life where pressure can serve as a motivator…until it stops being a force for good and starts becoming a source of evil.” By constantly putting pressure on ourselves we create this space where we lose all our power. Things that work for us may not work for us in every season of our lives and it’s important for us to recognize and be willing to shift our approach to honor these changes. We need to be realistic.  We need to recognize our patterns.  We need to be more...

057: The Value

April 19, 2022 18:08 - 28 minutes - 26 MB

What are you putting value on? Whose rules? Whose measuring stick? Whose task list? Are those to-dos really yours? Are they really serving you and moving you forward or are they bogging you down? Or are you just so caught up in that being your NORMAL that you just keep cycling them back on to the list week after week without thinking about it?   Let’s stop letting external things determine your value, shall we?    In this episode- I share some INSIDER details about what has drastical...

056: Nudges & Power

March 22, 2022 14:41 - 24 minutes - 22.7 MB

What if you learned that harnessing your own personal power was actually found in super simple shifts?    That you could choose to change the way you’re showing up to everything that’s presented to you? That the vibe is something YOU can change?    There’s a lot to that conversation but don’t worry- I cover it all in this episode. That and learning to LISTEN and follow the nudges that you’re getting will literally create an ease in your life that I don’t know how to describe.   Mention...

March 08, 2022 18:41 - 36 minutes - 33.3 MB

054: An Inside Job

February 22, 2022 17:31 - 44 minutes - 40.4 MB

A full access ticket into a fully channeled riff about how the depth of the connection between your mind, physical body, and emotions plays such a massive role in every single thing that we do.    In this episode we dive DEEP into so many angles of personal wellness and I share not only stories from my experiences but from my clients, my boyfriend who’s a professional athlete, and ways that all of this FITS into how you show up everyday and how it ultimately affects your happiness, success...

053: Answers

January 11, 2022 19:31 - 22 minutes - 20.2 MB

Seeking answers to life’s questions like where to go, why, who can help me, how do I get there, am I safe, do I need more, am I enough, what's my purpose seem to be a pretty predominate part of why we do what we do or maybe why we don’t… even if we don’t realize how actively the question asking is happening.   What if the pressure you’re feeling from the questions of life leads you to answer them based on someone or something else beside what YOU want or think or need?   In this episode,...

052: Coexistence

January 05, 2022 18:39 - 44 minutes - 40.3 MB

The more we can understand about the parts we play in a situation, the more power we hold.   Then you mix in the ability to have an understanding about where your partner is at (or any human that you interact with in your life).   I believe that knowledge is power… but on an awareness level.    Dive into this conversation with me to talk mindset, relationships, masculine energy, feminine energy, communication, lifestyle.   Mentioned in this episode:  My coaching group: Operation: DO...

051: Limitations

December 15, 2021 16:12 - 14 minutes - 13.1 MB

The obsession with ways to break free of limitations that the world places on us seems to be at an all time high… all while not really realizing just how much you’re actually holding yourself back in the process. So how do you really recognize it? Can you actually break “free” from the restraint of being “limited”? Let’s dive in together and see if maybe we can start letting ourselves loose once and for all….   . .

050: Breaking Up

November 30, 2021 23:02 - 44 minutes - 40.9 MB

How do you deal with a relationship ending?  I don’t mean how do you deal with it according to the way the movies shows you or social media tells you is the “right way”. I mean a healthy way to acknowledge and process what's happened.  If you don't deal with it now… rest assured that you will have to at SOME point.  Whether you need this now or later, I think you’ll enjoy the conversation. I go super deep into my own experiences so if nothing else- it's entertaining ;) . . Please like, ...

049: Protecting Your Peace

November 16, 2021 21:02 - 21 minutes - 19.7 MB

Protecting your peace…. What does that even mean? Well- it’s a pretty cool thing when you get the hang of it. In this episode, I share some pretty personal stories (examples) about how finding and acknowledging what I needed has ultimately transformed my life to a place I didn’t know was possible.   Because protecting your peace is really about knowing your worth and demanding that to be respected.   Mentioned in this episode; Let me know if you’re interested in learning more about “w...

048: Liberation

October 05, 2021 21:42 - 41 minutes - 57.4 MB

Hello again - why we took a break and an introduction into the process I have found that works the best for me when it comes to expansion and creating… Alignment.   Give this a listen to hear in real time how I birthed a new idea that was obviously soul aligned and flowing through me with the highest of vibes.   It’s real. It’s new. And it might just be exactly what you wanted to hear. Mentioned in this episode; Email me with “interested” in the subject line to talk about all of the de...

047: Check-In

August 24, 2021 18:30 - 20 minutes - 28.3 MB

The power of the check in.  It’s something I believe strongly in. I believe it allows us a moment to pause, to think, and to reflect. In moments where it includes another human, it always allows us a space to breathe together and connect, even if just for a moment.    In this episode, we check-in. We talk about guest speakers. We talk about missions And storytelling And finding what it is that WE actually want. And why it doesn’t matter what some rule somewhere says.    Join me fo...

046: Cut The Recovery

August 09, 2021 15:54 - 24 minutes - 34.1 MB

Join me while I drop some lines on my favorite ways to ditch the recovery need and stay on the right track, even when I’m traveling or away from my normal routine. After all, freedom is what everyone is looking for, right? How about we actually start giving it to ourselves?

045: Words Matter

July 27, 2021 11:00 - 20 minutes - 28.2 MB

Sometimes we don’t even realize the things that we’re saying out loud… or even worse the thoughts that are constantly running in the background in our minds.    One of the most powerful things I’ve learned (and continue to deepen) has been to put great value on the words I say and the thoughts I have.    It’s so much bigger than that. My hope is to give you a bit of a perspective shift on a more realistic way of looking at your WORDS.    And the massive impact they are making...   . ...

044: Six Months

July 13, 2021 11:38 - 30 minutes - 41.8 MB

Time flies when you’re having fun.    We’re six months in and sometimes people start to just throw their hands in the air at this point and call the year a wash…. Bad idea.   Join me in this episode for some real ways to reflect, evaluate, get accurate, cut out what you don’t want anymore and re-align to your desires for what they are RIGHT now.

June 29, 2021 11:00 - 26 minutes - 36 MB

042: Coffee & Choices

June 15, 2021 02:53 - 25 minutes - 35.3 MB

Sometimes something so small can turn into a deeper conversation that you never saw coming. Like coffee and the choice to lean away from the “hip” thing and more into the choice of what is physically better for me.    Caffeine talk turns to a chat on the responsibility of our choices. Tune in, it’s a good one.   Mentioned in this episode; Michelle - www.thetwigandfeather.com @twigandfeathershop on IG Operation DO - www.jamiethurber.com/operation-do   Questions? Suggestions for future...

041: Whole Picture

June 01, 2021 16:40 - 22 minutes - 31.4 MB

What if someone could teach us how to receive ass pats, high fives, AND accountability and firmness around holding up our end of the bargain?   It seems to not even be on the map with most of what is presented to us when it comes to “being successful” or personal/professional development and honestly, that’s a sad realization. I wanted to show you that it doesn’t have to be this way. Let’s dive straight into this conversation together. Join me in this weeks episode for more.    Mention...

040: Purging

May 19, 2021 15:00 - 33 minutes - 46 MB

Purging your space, your energy, and your stuff can create more for you than you realize.   In this episode I share how I arrive to this desire every season and how it fits right into the preparation to not only feel better but actually get to enjoy the things you love most about the summer time.    Adding intention and responsibility to the mix might just blow your socks off! Let's dive in. If you want more on this subject sign up here to receive my FREE check list guide on preparing y...

039: No Explanation

May 04, 2021 11:00 - 23 minutes - 32.8 MB

“I'm not required to give them an explanation”. Someone recently reminded me of the first time I made this declaration to the world and how it impacted her. It inspired me to record this episode because I think all of the humans need to hear this (especially my mid-west gang). I welcome you to give this a listen and then stop doing it. Let go of the need to explain, or the obligation to. Let go of the justification so people “understand” or approve. Reach a level of no longer needing that...

038: Apologize for Success?

April 20, 2021 19:23 - 21 minutes - 29.5 MB

In this day and age, it’s not abnormal for someone to very openly request another to change around their own lives in order to meet one's specific needs… we do this without even considering the other person's lives, time, or needs.   Then what happens? The person apologizes for not having the availability OR they change they’re own stuff to make room for someone else's.    It’s so ass-backwards and I just had to call it out.    In this episode, we uncover all of this and more in my lat...

037: Finding a Mentor

April 06, 2021 23:00 - 40 minutes - 55.2 MB

Hiring a coach, finding a mentor or teacher... It should be something really exciting but it seems that it comes a source of massive stress for a lot of people. And it makes sense given the number of cases you hear about where someone has had a bad experience with a not so professional coach.    In this episode I go through some things you can use to determine who is the right person for you. What questions to ask, what things to pay attention to, and some tell signs you can look for tha...

036: Whirlwind

March 23, 2021 14:11 - 19 minutes - 26.7 MB

Sometimes you just need to brew yourself a cup of coffee, sit down with freezing toes in an apartment built in 1875, and chat.    In this episode I share some things that are going on in my world to show that no matter how many whirlwinds may occur within a 24 hour period, that doesn’t mean that you have to caulk that off as a bad day.   Let’s stop missing out on the opportunities to LIVE.  . . .

035: Energy Exchange

March 09, 2021 18:31 - 31 minutes - 43.1 MB

What if I told you part of why you’re always feeling drained can be solved by honoring the energy exchange that happens when you’re interacting with anyone or anything?   Yes, you read that right. With every scroll, every text, every call you’re exchanging energy with someone (and probably not realizing it at all).   In this episode we talk about how to identify where energy exchanges may be affecting your energy levels and ability to focus. I offer some nuggets of how to start honoring ...

034: Delegation

February 23, 2021 12:00 - 37 minutes - 51.7 MB

Delegation isn’t just hiring people into a business, it can look a lot like asking for help or the dreaded---allowing someone to support you!  Scary, I know. In all seriousness, there’s a bit of a stigma around delegation... when to do it, who should do it, why you should do it, and how to do it In this episode we talk about the real questions you should be asking yourself when it comes to opening up to receiving help in your business or life. Ways that you can be the one to decide what’s...

033: Security

February 09, 2021 12:00 - 30 minutes - 41.6 MB

Security, stability, foundation. It’s time we start thinking about them differently. If we started looking at them as something that we can ultimately create for ourselves, then everything shifts. In this episode I explain a few ways that you can shift things in the way you’re building or operating so that your stability is connected to YOU. It’s not contingent on anyone else.   That’s a powerful move, ya’ll.   Let’s dive into this and you’ll see what I mean. In this episode I mention...

032: What You Track

January 26, 2021 12:00 - 35 minutes - 49 MB

The more you know, the more you can start to manipulate your current reality into the one you want.    That’s not just airy bs either. The thing you wish you had more of? Well you could if you were more familiar with the details of it, the facts, if you tracked it.    What you track, grows.   In this episode I will walk you through several scenarios where this method of thinking and tracking WORKS and can get you more of what you want, without all of the heartache or drama that can be ...

030: Greatest Gift

December 29, 2020 12:00 - 30 minutes - 42 MB

The gift of self-awareness. It started with the question of “what the hell IS self awareness anyway?” after I heard one of my favorite speakers mention it in a keynote speech. It started me down a path that I’m still actively traveling 4 years later.    One that I believe has been one of the most rewarding rabbit holes I’ve ever dove down. And I dove head first. In this episode I go deep-deep into the details of this moment and how it’s altered everything since. I also give ways that you...

029: Themes

December 15, 2020 14:00 - 26 minutes - 37.1 MB

New year- new me   Ha. Nope. That’s not how it works. We all know that 9 times out of 10, resolutions don’t stick.    In this episode I go into the depth of why they don’t work and how we’re so programmed/pressured to create them so we do it anyway.    I believe in setting a theme for the year that blankets over the months to come so every action you take is connected by that core desire or way you want to show up.    I wanted to give some examples of ways you can incorporate this in...

028: High Performers

December 01, 2020 12:00 - 34 minutes - 47.4 MB

Output vs. Input Consume vs. Create High Producer AND Self-care?    I know now a lot of people believe that it is not possible to have a work-life balance OR feel as if you’re actually handling all of the things in your life, business, job, family, health, etc. at the same time without going insane or being stressed to the max. I’m here to tell you that it IS in fact, possible.    This conversation went a bit in a different direction than I originally anticipated (which are the best ...

027: Wednesdays

November 19, 2020 06:09 - 37 minutes - 51.1 MB

After changing everything I could possibly think of to try and stop feeling drained I finally admitted that I might have some serious burnout… Which led to me making a massive change in the way I have been conducting business… and myself. In this episode I take you down the weird road I’ve been traveling since implementing this new way of operating. The good stuff. The strange stuff. The annoying stuff. And the badass side effects.   All the raw details and insight on how many this could ...

026: What To Do When People Are Shitty

November 03, 2020 11:00 - 32 minutes - 44 MB

I was in the shower pondering on the way different people approach different situations and I thought about that question; What do you do when people are shitty to you?   Well, I feel like we all may have a go-to reaction that we’ve developed over the years when faced with people being sucky towards us but is that really the best option?   Is reacting the way you always have… helping YOU?   I realized while recording this episode that the way we handle shitty people has a direct result...

025: Why We Practice

October 20, 2020 11:00 - 36 minutes - 49.9 MB

Life happens. It happens to all of us and we all have different circumstances BUT we all do get a choice on how we choose to handle it.    The thing is, you may see someone else and think, “Nothing bad ever happens to them.” but that’s fake news! Life doesn’t go according to planned for anyone, not all of the time anyway... people just handle it differently and that is what you’re seeing. It’s not lack of things happening, it’s lack of letting that win.   And this is why we practice.   ...

024: Constant Contact

October 06, 2020 11:00 - 51 minutes - 71 MB

“You need to put the phone down and be present with me!”  “But how dare you not answer when I call you!”   Dude, the hypocrisy around our expectations of each other when it comes to being accessible is out of control.   From the unrealistic expectations, to the unhealthy attachments, to the anxiety inducing fear that either someone is mad at us because they didn’t respond to the fear that if I don’t respond now, that person is going to be mad at me.   Honestly, it’s all pretty ridicu...

023: Be the Change

September 22, 2020 18:42 - 38 minutes - 53.3 MB

Change starts with one person. Basically, you can change your way of existing simply by making a commitment to yourself to live in a place of integrity and truth. Whatever that means to you personally.    Honestly, I feel like this statement is way overused and drastically under-explained, so in the episode I share with you the story of how it became such an impactful statement in my life and also has influenced my entire state of being.    Now let’s see if we can really start that rippl...

022: Fearless

September 08, 2020 11:00 - 22 minutes - 31.5 MB

How do you overcome fear?  Become fearless.    Those are the big topics around how to push past a block or fear of something new, or big, or exciting. I’d been asked for years how to overcome fear and I gotta tell you, it’s probably a much different response than you’re expecting.   Share your own fear tackling tips with us at [email protected] or on our page facebook.com/jamiethurber.biz   Mentioned in this episode; Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert https://amzn.to/32KLJgT 

021: My Life Sentence

August 25, 2020 11:00 - 43 minutes - 60.2 MB

There’s a piece of my reality that I rarely talk about, up until recently that is.  It’s something I’ve lived with, learned to navigate, and have had to focus on daily for 20 years. It’s also something that makes me who I am. It’s something I know I’m not an island about. It’s something that most people can relate to but never want to say anything because we feel like we’re complaining or making excuses. When in reality, we’re just talking about what is OUR actual existence.    In this ep...

020: Perfect

August 11, 2020 11:00 - 32 minutes - 44 MB

The idea of perfection is sometimes a silent killer, especially when that seems to be all you’re seeing shown to you.    In this episode, I simply wanted to talk about the reality that most people don’t want you to see. My hope is that you can listen to this and realize that you’re not alone, that we’re all human, and that we all deserve some grace.    Questions? Comments? Email me directly at [email protected]   Looking for more support in your own personal growth or business? We’d ...

019: Drop the Battle

July 28, 2020 11:00 - 32 minutes - 44 MB

The struggle. The war. The fight. The battle.  Do you find yourself using these words when describing your day, something that's happened to you, or maybe just life in general? In this episode we debunk the use of these words and go through first, why they’re so damaging and secondly, how to start approaching life differently so it’s not always something that requires a sword and shield.    I also go into a bit of detail about how moving these emotions out of your space makes so much mor...

018: Boundaries

July 14, 2020 11:50 - 35 minutes - 49.4 MB

We all know we need boundaries but creating healthy ones proves to be a bit more of a challenge than anyone cares to talk about.    In this episode, we talk deeper about why boundaries are so important, ways to create them in a healthy way that allows you to thrive instead of feeling like you’re constantly on the defense.   Talk about Lifestyle Creation, this is a major key.   Resources discussed during this episode; Book: White Hot Truth by Danielle Laporte.    Please share this ep...

017: Your Lens

June 30, 2020 11:35 - 32 minutes - 44.1 MB

Looking outside of our own lens…. A concept I wish was more mainstream. Learning to take a moment and look outside of the small realm of our own reality, only our personal experiences is a tool that will prove more lucrative than you could imagine. In this episode, I dive deeper into the concept that maybe there is a way we can honor our own realities AND be able to not only SEE but honor and maybe even understand where others are coming from as well. This isn’t a discussion meant to chang...

016: Where to Start

June 16, 2020 12:00 - 29 minutes - 39.8 MB

In this episode, I jump right into how you can start making actual, lasting changes by creating foundational habits that last.    We’re not talking about how to get somewhere quick or take on 17 tasks right now to “change”, I’m talking about how to take actual steps towards something sustainable.    I feel strongly that that is one of the missing links with a lot of the content that is being plastered around media today, a lot of rah-rah here’s a big idea of how you’re “supposed” to be w...
