- Hitting a milestone

- How the podcast has evolved—and what’s next

- Upcoming Ayahuasca Retreat

- Online Dating

- Moving to Montreal and my perspective of Quebec

- Answering people be, try harder to acknowledge each other

Ep 18: Spiritual Wounds We Carry from Childhood w/ Tonya Steinborn

What happens when a sensitive child is told their inner world is dangerous? When spiritual gifts are demonized, emotions are policed, and even curiosity becomes a threat?

In this raw and deeply personal episode, Tonya Steinborn shares her story growing up in a strict fundamentalist Christian household—one where divine connection, psychic gifts, and feminine power were systematically denied. From prophetic dreams and “feelings” passed off as coincidence, to eventually becoming a healer and published children's book author, Tonya’s journey is one of reclamation. Her book Whispers From the Farm distills her story into a message for sensitive children who need to know they’re not broken—they’re gifted. This episode dives into the complexity of spiritual trauma, intuitive awakening, feminine empowerment, and what it means to come home to yourself after decades of self-denial.

What’s in This Episode?

- Growing up in a fundamentalist church—and later leaving it

- Psychic gifts, prophetic dreams, and intuitive “feelings”

- Reconnecting with your inner child through story and nature

- What it's like to parent sensitive children with empathy and awareness

- How spiritual suppression fractures identity—and how to heal

- Tonya’s paranormal experiences and why she chose to step away

- Writing Whispers From the Farm and reclaiming the voice of her younger self

Labels—we all have them. Whether it’s shy, sensitive, strong, or stubborn, these words are pinned to us by others or by ourselves, and they shape how we move through the world.

What’s in This Episode?

- Shanda's journey from health coaching to transformational life coaching

- The power of intentional living and choosing your path

- How labels like 'shy' or 'sensitive' are not definitions—they’re stories we can learn to read

EP 16: Breathe, Sleep, Heal w/ Tiffany Ludwicki

In this episode of Jus Talkin’, I sit down with Tiffany Ludwicki—a forward-thinking health coach and myofunctional therapist who is redefining what it means to breathe, sleep, and live well. From alleviating snoring and sleep apnea to addressing posture and jaw alignment, Tiffany shares her unique approach that fuses dental hygiene, health coaching, and airway-focused therapy to unlock true rest and resilience.

Through her work, Tiffany helps clients reframe the way they breathe, improving sleep quality, enhancing resilience, and increasing overall vitality. Her passion for preventative health shines through as she explains the physiological connections between tongue placement, nasal breathing, and holistic health—breaking down the science behind why mouth breathing isn't just inconvenient—it’s a barrier to optimal well-being.

• How childhood habits shape our breathing and posture for life

• The hidden dangers of mouth breathing and how it affects sleep

• Why snoring isn’t just annoying—it’s a sign of deeper issues

• The connection between jaw alignment and sleep apnea

• Practical exercises to improve breathing and enhance health

• The power of preventative health over reactive medicine

Tiffany brings her expertise to the conversation with raw honesty and actionable insights, challenging us to rethink how we approach our health from the very foundation of breath.
