  52: One Year Later - What Showing Up Changed!

  Aug 2, 202623 min

  What if the next step forward actually starts with recognizing how far you've already come? In this one-year anniversary episode of Rooted & Rehumanizing , Jillian and Meg reflect on the journey from recording their first episode in a studio with pages of notes and uncertainty to showing up each week with unscripted, honest conversations. Together, they explore why celebration is not just something we do after success, but an essential part of creating sustainable growth. Meg shares why we cannot keep building on top of uncelebrated success and how bringing celebration into the body through our senses helps us fully experience the moments we often rush past. Looking back over 52 episodes, Jillian and Meg unpack the biggest lessons this podcast has taught them, including trusting a vision before it exists, taking small steps toward something bigger, asking for help, leaning on others, and allowing something meaningful to grow over time. The conversation becomes a reflection on more than a podcast. It is about creating safe spaces, sharing our stories, allowing ourselves to be seen, and realizing that our experiences can help others feel less alone. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder to pause, look around, and celebrate the person you had to become to get where you are today. What we explore in this episode: Celebrating one year of Rooted & Rehumanizing Why we struggle to pause and acknowledge progress The importance of celebrating small milestones How celebration creates sustainable growth Bringing celebration into the body through all five senses Looking back at who you were one year ago Turning a vision into reality one small step at a time Why big dreams happen through small actions Learning to ask for help and lean on others Building something meaningful with other people Trusting others and letting go of doing everything yourself Creating spaces where people feel safe and seen Why sharing your story helps others understand their own The power of realizing you are not alone Continuing to grow while honoring where you've been Connect with Jillian Website: https://trellissuite.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillian-pezet-trellis/ Email: jillianp@trellissuite.com See what Jillian is building!! www.linkedin.com/company/trellissuite Connect with Meg Website: www.profoundwellness.net Email: meg@profoundwellness.net Facebook: facebook.com/megan.fikse Instagram: instagram.com/m.laidlaw Meg’s Offerings Heart Math BioFeedback Device: https://www.heartmath.com/coachmeg Self Mastery Program: https://www.profoundwellness.net/self-mastery-program Bold Beautiful Life Membership: https://www.profoundwellness.net/membership Mentioned in this episode: Outro Dyn AD

  051: You Don’t Have to Earn Your Worth with Alice Heiman

  Jul 26, 202657 min

  What if success was never about doing it all, but about building a life where you don't have to? In this conversation, Jillian and Meg are joined by Alice Heiman, a sales expert, entrepreneur, mentor, and host of Sales Talk for CEOs , for a powerful discussion about entrepreneurship, women in business, money, guilt, support, and redefining what success actually means. Alice shares her experience working with founders and CEOs, including the unique challenges women face while building companies, leading teams, raising families, managing households, and carrying responsibilities that often go unseen. Together, they explore the beliefs that keep women from asking for help, charging what they're worth, pursuing financial success, and accepting support. From hiring help at home to overcoming the discomfort around sales, Alice challenges the idea that success requires sacrifice and reminds us that receiving support allows us to create a bigger impact. The conversation also dives into redefining wealth beyond money. Wealth as freedom. Wealth as choice. Wealth as presence, connection, health, experiences, and having the capacity to become the person you want to be. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that you don't have to prove your worth by carrying everything alone. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is ask for what you need and allow yourself to receive it. What we explore in this episode: Why women often carry an invisible mental load The unique challenges female entrepreneurs face Letting go of guilt around success, money, and support Why making money allows you to create more impact Reframing sales as helping and serving Overcoming the belief that success changes who you are Why asking for help is a strength Letting go of perfection and control Accepting support without guilt Redefining what wealth means to you Building a business around freedom and alignment Understanding money as a tool, not an identity Learning to receive as much as you give Asking "Who am I being?" instead of only focusing on what you're doing Taking care of yourself so you can better support others Connect with Alice: Website: https://aliceheiman.com/ Sales Talk for CEOs Podcast: www.salestalkforceos.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/alice-heiman-llc/ Connect with Jillian Website: https://trellissuite.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillian-pezet-trellis/ Email: jillianp@trellissuite.com See what Jillian is building!! www.linkedin.com/company/trellissuite Connect with Meg Website: www.profoundwellness.net Email: meg@profoundwellness.net Facebook: facebook.com/megan.fikse Instagram: instagram.com/m.laidlaw Meg’s Offerings Heart Math BioFeedback Device: https://www.heartmath.com/coachmeg Self Mastery Program: https://www.profoundwellness.net/self-mastery-program Bold Beautiful Life Membership: https://www.profoundwellness.net/membership Mentioned in this episode: Outro Dyn AD

  50: Your Triggers Are Trying to Tell You Something

  Jul 19, 202629 min

  What if the things that trigger us are not the problem, but an invitation to look deeper? In this conversation, Jillian and Meg explore what our reactions, frustrations, and defensive moments can reveal about the parts of ourselves that are still asking for attention. After Meg shares a frustrating moment with technology, they unpack how something as simple as a forgotten password can expose much deeper patterns around urgency, productivity, slowing down, and feeling safe. Together, they explore the idea that triggers are not always about what is happening around us. They are often signals pointing toward old beliefs, unhealed stories, and the places where we are still learning to trust ourselves. The conversation moves through productivity, rest, self-worth, contribution, relationships, money, parenting, and identity. They discuss the difference between worthiness and fulfillment, why slowing down can feel uncomfortable, and how judgment toward others can reveal hidden fears within ourselves. Ultimately, this episode is an invitation to stop seeing triggers as something to avoid and start seeing them as information. Because the moments that challenge us often reveal exactly where we have the opportunity to grow. What we explore in this episode: What our triggers reveal about us Why small frustrations can expose deeper patterns The connection between urgency, productivity, and self-worth Learning to slow down without losing momentum Why systems and routines help build self-trust The difference between worthiness and fulfillment How contribution creates connection and purpose Recognizing when old patterns resurface Using defensiveness as a signal for deeper reflection Why self-judgment often creates external judgment How beliefs about money, success, and identity shape our actions Learning to trust your future self Creating systems that support who you want to become Viewing triggers as lessons instead of obstacles Connect with Jillian Website: https://trellissuite.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillian-pezet-trellis/ Email: jillianp@trellissuite.com See what Jillian is building!! www.linkedin.com/company/trellissuite Connect with Meg Website: www.profoundwellness.net Email: meg@profoundwellness.net Facebook: facebook.com/megan.fikse Instagram: instagram.com/m.laidlaw HeartMath BioFeedback Device: https://www.heartmath.com/coachmeg Mentioned in this episode: Outro Dyn AD

  047: Finding Your Voice and Telling Your Story with Rachel Plonka

  Jun 28, 202657 min

  What happens when the thing you're most afraid to share is the very thing someone else needs to hear? In this powerful conversation, Jillian and Meg welcome nurse coach, writer, feminine biohacker, and storyteller Rachel Plonka to the podcast. Together, they explore the connection between healing, self-expression, nervous system regulation, and the courage it takes to be truly seen. Rachel shares her journey of helping people heal through writing and storytelling, and how that work ultimately led her to create The BioHacker's Blueprint, a program focused on nervous system regulation and how to access what she calls our "inner pharmacy." Through science, spirituality, and personal experience, she explains why so many people feel called to share their voice, tell their story, or step into something bigger, yet find themselves held back by fear, perfectionism, and nervous system resistance. The conversation weaves through meditation, HeartMath, emotional healing, parenting, leadership, self-expression, and the responsibility that can come with stepping into authorship, authority, and purpose. What begins as an interview evolves into a deeply personal conversation about healing old relationships with authority, trusting the process, and recognizing that growth is often less about arriving and more about continuing to show up. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that your voice matters, your story matters, and the world may need exactly what only you can offer. What we explore in this episode: Finding and trusting your authentic voice Why nervous system regulation impacts self-expression The connection between healing and visibility HeartMath and the science of coherence Why resistance often appears when we need healing most Learning to orient toward positive emotions The difference between perfection and practice Understanding emotional highs and lows as part of growth How healing happens through repetition and consistency The concept of compound growth in personal development Parenting with emotional intelligence and awareness Leadership, authority, and egalitarian relationships The responsibility that comes with authorship and influence Rewriting old stories around power and authority Why the world needs your story and your voice We Would Love to Connect With You Your reflections, questions, and lived experiences mean so much to us.

  046: How Noticing More Changes Everything

  Jun 21, 202622 min

  What if the life you're chasing isn't somewhere in the future? What if parts of it already exist right in front of you? In this heartfelt conversation, Jillian and Meg explore the power of noticing the everyday blessings, opportunities, and experiences that often get overlooked while we're focused on what's next. Jillian reflects on the dramatic shift her family has experienced while building Trellis and navigating a season of financial uncertainty. What initially felt like loss has become an unexpected invitation to appreciate things she once took for granted. A full tank of gas. A stocked refrigerator. Time with family. The simple gift of enough. Meg shares stories from her own life that illustrate how easy it is to postpone joy until the next milestone, the next purchase, the next achievement, or the next version of life. Together, they challenge the assumption that fulfillment always exists somewhere ahead of us. The conversation explores gratitude, abundance, financial stress, nervous system safety, perspective, and the practice of noticing what Meg calls "micro-miracles" throughout everyday life. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that while growth and ambition have their place, a meaningful life is often built by appreciating what already exists rather than constantly chasing what comes next. What we explore in this episode: The difference between appreciation and achievement Why we often postpone joy until the next milestone Finding abundance during challenging seasons The concept of "micro-miracles" How perspective changes everyday experiences Gratitude as a practice rather than a feeling The relationship between financial stress and safety Appreciating what you already have Why the brain naturally focuses on what's missing Rewiring default patterns toward gratitude Finding fulfillment in ordinary moments The difference between "I have to" and "I get to" Building a gratitude practice that feels accessible Creating internal safety regardless of external circumstances Recognizing that many of today's realities were once yesterday's dreams We Would Love to Connect With You Your reflections, questions, and lived experiences mean so much to us.
