“If we never listen to or inquire about other people’s opinions, experiences, or thoughts, we will never grow past what we have experienced and where we are now” -Dr. Jennie

Overwhelmed: Not a Sign of Failure, but a Call to Make a Change
“Overwhelmed: Not a Sign of Failure, but a Call to Make a Change,” Dr. Jennie explores how feelings of overwhelm are not signs of weakness but important signals from our body and mind. She shares practical steps to pause, regulate, and reflect so you can understand what your emotions are trying to tell you and begin making small, meaningful changes toward balance and peace.
The Hidden Cost of Denial
This blog explores the often misunderstood concept of denial—not just as a conscious choice to ignore reality, but as a deep-rooted, subconscious coping mechanism our brains use to protect us from pain. It reveals how denial can form in childhood, shape our belief systems, and limit our ability to grow and heal as adults.
Power: The Entitled vs. Responsible Mindset—How Leadership Shapes Influence
This blog explores the profound difference between an entitled mindset and a responsible mindset when it comes to power and leadership. Dr. Jennie challenges readers to reflect on their own influence—whether as leaders, parents, teachers, or mentors—and consider whether they wield power to control or to uplift. She highlights how entitlement breeds resentment and a survival mentality, while responsible leadership fosters trust, growth, and transformation. Through thought-provoking questions and real-world examples, this piece encourages self-awareness and accountability, urging readers to recognize their triggers, heal from past wounds, and choose influence that inspires rather than oppresses. Ultimately, it serves as a call to action: to lead with intention, integrity, and a commitment to empowering others.
The 0 to 100 Facade: Why This Limiting Belief is Holding You Back
This blog explores the limiting belief of "going from 0 to 100" and how it keeps us stuck in unhealthy emotional patterns. It breaks down why this mindset is harmful, how it shifts responsibility onto others, and how physiological factors—like stress and hormones—play a role in our reactions. More importantly, it provides actionable steps to break free, including shifting self-perception, setting boundaries, and supporting emotional regulation. By challenging this belief, we can regain control over our responses and create healthier, more intentional interactions.
Don’t Let Emotions Drive: How to Pull Over and Regain Your Calm
When emotions start rising, it’s easy to keep pushing forward in a heated conversation, but just like an overheating car, failing to pull over can lead to damage. This blog explores why we often ignore warning signs and continue reacting in the moment, along with practical strategies to cool down before things escalate. From self-awareness to mindful breathing, journaling, and humor, learn how to regain control, prevent emotional blow-ups, and respond with clarity rather than regret.
Breaking the Cycle of Self-Abuse: Moving Toward Self-Love and Strength
Breaking the cycle of self-abuse is not easy, but it is possible. This transformation is not just for you—it allows you to love others in healthier, more authentic ways. As you grow, you’ll inspire those around you to do the same.
Assumptions: Useful or Harmful?
Assumptions can be both helpful and harmful. Assumptions are not innately good or bad. So, it is important that we understand why and how we are using them.
The Role of Self-Image in Your Life: How Who You Believe You Are Defines Your Path
How we see ourselves is the foundation to how we see others and the world. If we do not value ourselves we assume others do not either and if we value ourselves too much (or over others) we have unhealthy expectations that others should also. And although we may try to hide behind a false veil of confidence, our insecurities will rear their head in how we judge or misinterpret others.
Finding Balance: Left-Brain and Right-Brain Thinking Part 2
The right brain is beautifully creative and able to be in the present moment, but it can also cause us some trouble with negative thinking, isolation, and self-preservation. This week's blog discusses strategies to build healthy right-brain thinking habits.
