I had never considered plastic surgery to be a part of my wellness practice, but I think that thought needs to be shaken up. Why? Because the way we feel in our bodies is important. While I don't want you, dear listener, to ever feel like you need to have plastic surgery to fix anything, I do want to take some of the stigma surrounding plastic surgery away. That's why I think this conversation with Dr. Lober is so interesting and that's why I'm openly talking about the procedure I had done. You ...

What if it doesn’t work out? This is a question we often ask ourselves. It cultivates anxiety and that sweaty feeling that we might be making the wrong decision.

In this episode of Self Discovery, I’m giving a long overdue update on our RV plans, my plastic surgery a couple of weeks ago, and a health scare that sent me into a spiral in early August a few days before our move. While life can be unpredictable, and timing can be a real bi*ch, there are several lessons from this past month that I will forever keep in my toolbox. The most important one being that we must be our own health advocates. There is always hope, my friends, and you are never alone. H...

My husband and I recently made a big, life-changing decision: we are selling our home, most of our things and extra vehicle, and moving into an RV for the foreseeable future. The last weekend of May we were sitting in our living room, speaking out loud about how we wanted more adventure in our lives, and then this idea bubbled forth. We immediately started getting excited and concluded with “why wouldn’t we do this?” So, we are. I’m a nomad at heart and Sam is down for pretty much anything, so N...

This little question packs quite a punch. Why? Because we so often live in our heads! And our heads can create quite a fairy tale that we often interject as reality. This fairy tale reality is often completely devoid of truth, yet we will continue to create stories around it.

A year and a half ago, I was playing a set at a really famous venue in Atlanta called Smith’s Olde Bar. A fellow musician asked me if they could sit in and play on my set since they really liked my music. I was flattered and said “of course,” and what followed was, to put it lightly, a disaster. I stood in front of a filled venue playing my original songs over a drum kit so loud and off beat I could hear myself think. I shouldered the shame and the blame for such an awful set even though I had c...

I had a really interesting conversation last night with a good friend. We were sitting over a beautiful dinner talking about relationships and how to move forward in them when it appears the commitment levels are differing. So I posed this question: If I have the emotional tools, is it my responsibility to share them and teach them, or is it better to stand in my integrity and just be them? - That’s what this LBM Self Discovery episode is addressing. www.jaclynsteele.com/selfdiscoverypod Instagr...
