In this episode, Jenna Marilyn is talking about emotional hygiene — the kind you can’t see, but you definitely feel.

She unpacks the invisible buildup of emotional and energetic gunk — and the sacred responsibility of tending to your inner world the way you would your body after a sweaty hike.

Jenna shares her personal story of emotional overload, self-isolation, and the shift that changed everything:

You don’t have to avoid emotions or other people’s energy — you just have to clean yourself off.

You’ll hear about:

• What emotional hygiene actually is — and why it’s just as essential as physical hygiene
• The difference between emotional creators and emotional absorbers
• Why Jenna isolated herself for months — and how she found her way back
• The hiking metaphor that reframed her emotional experience
• Real-life emotional messes: dumpers, overleakers, energy suckers, and more
• Why energetic spaces are shared spaces — and how to stop making them dirty
• Jenna’s before-and-after practices to feel clear, grounded, and like herself again

If you’ve ever left a room feeling off, questioned whether a feeling was yours, or just want to feel more you in your everyday life — this episode is your energetic invitation.

Take what you want. Leave what you don’t.

And maybe — take an emotional shower after.

In this episode, Jenna Marilyn is talking about something we all feel but rarely name: uncertainty. That hum in the background of our lives right now—the doubt, the in-betweenness, the quiet ache of not knowing—it’s not a flaw. It might actually be the truth. She wants to explore what it means to live inside that uncertainty without rushing to fix it. What if the unknown isn’t something to overcome, but something to trust? Let’s sit with that. Just us.
