In this episode I talk to Jennifer Hendler about the difference between being fiercely independence and interdependence in relationships and with ourselves.
Introduction
Jennifer is the founder of Claiming My Voice, a Holistic Psychotherapy practice that specializes in helping women break free from stifling their voice to reach their full potential. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Holistic Life Coach, Relationship Coach and Flower Essence Therapist.
From Jennifer’s website she says:
I work with motivated, visionary souls of service who feel like they have to self-sacrifice to achieve their dreams. I help them Claim Their Voices so they never have to lose themselves again to belong and succeed. And I teach them how to build evolutionary relationships that lead to soul-satisfying connection and a more peaceful planet.
For 25 years I’ve been making it safe for women to trust themselves, communicate authentically, and share power.
I know how painful it is to be unseen, unheard, and unmet; to shrink from relentless self-doubt; to get depleted from poor boundaries, and obsess over difficult relationship dynamics. It’s taken me a lifetime of courage to grab the reins and Claim My Voice in a world that often doesn’t understand, validate, or include my holistic perspective

In this episode I talk to Alyssa Decker who shares her inspirational story as well as offering gems for listeners to apply in their life-personally and professionally when navigating conflict.
Introduction
Alyssa understands that your journey through difficult relationships is tough, because she’s been there. It took her a few years to figure out how to show up to her most challenging relationships the way she wanted to (with confidence and peace).
Now, Alyssa is here to help you make the same shift, in far less time. She knows from experience that what is happening in your relationship might not be your fault at all. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t change it, simply by learning the skills of navigating these relationships… and oftentimes, the relationship changes when you change how you are showing up. Alyssa is a certified life coach, with additional education in CBT and NLP. Learning is always useful, but when combined with life experience, it’s a game changer.
