73. Who You’re Becoming: Living in Alignment with Your Values
Update: 2025-11-28
Description
If your habits are the bricks of your life, your values are the blueprint underneath.
In this season-closing episode, Jess revisits one of the most powerful tools for building a sturdy life: knowing what matters most — and actually living it. She shares how your values shift with each life season, why alignment feels like an exhale, and how her own have evolved as she steps into parenthood.
We’ll cover:
- What core values really are (and aren’t) — and why they’re not just corporate buzzwords
- How to recognize when you’re living out of alignment (and what your body is trying to tell you)
- A simple reflection practice to re-evaluate your values for the season you’re in
- How to translate your values into real-world decisions, boundaries, and habits
- Jess’s current core values — presence and curiosity — and how they shape her next chapter
