Celebrating 500 Episodes: Back to the Basics Begins with Freeing Your Space
Guest: Crystal Jenkins | Season 12, Ep. 500
In our milestone 500th episode, we’re celebrating by exploring the power of “Freeing Your Space”—both physically, mentally, and emotionally. This episode also marks the beginning of our special 7-part series, Getting Back to the Basics: Your Body Knows Best. Throughout this series, we’ll dive into essential wellness principles to help you reconnect with your body, mind, and spirit. Joined by Crystal Jenkins, a leader in emotional healing and personal growth, we discuss how decluttering all areas of our lives can bring clarity and peace, especially as we head into the holiday season. Drawing from my book, Wellness on a Shoestring, I share practical, foundational habits that set the stage for personal transformation. Crystal offers powerful insights on releasing emotional baggage, making space for more fulfilling relationships and a deeper connection with ourselves. With small, intentional changes—whether in our physical space, relationships, or inner thoughts—we can free ourselves to experience life more mindfully. Let’s celebrate this incredible 500-episode journey together by focusing on these small shifts that, over time, create profound transformation.
Thank you for being a part of this journey with us, and here’s to 500 more episodes of growth and connection!

Life’s brevity is its greatest gift, reminding us to savor each moment and live with intention. Jodi Wellman, founder of 4000 Mondays, inspires us to embrace the finite nature of life as a tool for living boldly and purposefully. Drawing from her expertise as a positive psychology practitioner, Jodi shares how practicing gratitude, savoring everyday experiences, and creating meaningful routines can transform how we experience time. She challenges us to use the awareness of our limited Mondays not to stress but to prioritize joy, connection, and the things that truly matter.
Key Highlights:
- Use "mortality math" to heighten your awareness of time and create urgency to pursue meaningful goals.
- Shake up routines with novelty to add vibrancy and excitement to everyday life.
- Gratitude letters are a powerful way to deepen relationships and enhance personal well-being.
- Savoring the mundane—like enjoying a favorite drink or completing a simple chore—can provide surprising joy and fulfillment.
- Boldness and intentionality are essential for living a life that feels complete and regret-free.
