• Break the Pattern. Not the Peace. | #11

  You’re not picking a fight. You’re picking yourself. Saying “Hey, Wait” might feel like confrontation… But what if it’s actually one of the most loving and respectful things you can do? In this solo episode, Jay closes out her three-part series on the “Hey, Wait” method with the final and most tender step: actually saying “Hey, Wait” to another person. Whether you’re someone who keeps the peace at all costs or someone who only speaks up when you're already at a boiling point, this practice will help you to find a healthy space in between. A way to stay with yourself while staying true to your relationships. A way to speak up without burning it all down. Because “Hey, Wait” isn’t just about learning how to use your voice. It’s about learning that your reality matters. In this episode, Jay shares: Why “Hey, Wait” can feel so charged, especially if you’re used to staying quiet How to turn “Hey, Wait” into a true bid for connection How to start practicing in low-stakes situations before tackling the bigger ones What to say next, and how to keep the moment grounded in your truth In this episode, Jay also opens up about her course, Yours Truly: a self-paced program designed to help you come home to yourself in your nervous system, your voice, and your relationships.

• Unpacking Your Life (feat. Jane Bond) | #9

  Welcome back to the “Hey, Wait” Podcast, hosted by embodiment coach, educator, and author Jay Moon Fields. In each episode she shares stories, insights, interviews, and practical tools to help you shift how you show up in your relationships, and in your life.   In today’s episode, Jay is joined by Jane Bond. Jane is a powerhouse in luxury real estate (Naples, NYC, Philly), and a fierce advocate for women. Having “unpacked her life,” Jane now inspires women through her podcast, Unpack Your Life, to pause and take an honest look at their lives—and to ask themselves if what they’re going through is allowing for their growth or keeping them hostage?   When her career, marriage, finances, and ego all collapsed at once, Jane had to let go of everything she thought made her who she was. In this major “Hey wait” moment, she stepped out of performance and into reckoning—with her truth, her fear, and her power. Together, she and Jay talk about what it takes to stop performing and to start living from presence.   Except it took two takes…because the first time Jay and Jane sat down to record the interview, they both fell into old patterns of performing and people pleasing, and it didn’t come across as authentically as they knew they were capable of being. So two women who, in earlier chapters of their lives, would’ve either kept the inauthentic version or thrown it in the trash and walked away, instead chose to stay, have an honest and hard conversation and give themselves and each other a second chance. Give it a listen to see what came out of their second conversation.   And Hey, Wait!

Key Takeaways:   Unpacking your life is about reclaiming your power & walking through fear If this chapter of your life isn’t serving you, then rewrite it Withholding your truth disconnects you from the people who need to show up in your life The fear of being misunderstood, being too much, and of starting over again Self worth doesn’t need an audience You don’t owe the world your whole story to be impactful Connect with Jane Bond:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janebond___/  Unpack Your Life Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/unpack-your-life/id1789819668  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/janebondtbg/  Real Estate Website: https://www.compass.com/agents/jane-bond/  Connect with Jay:   Official Website: https://jaymoonfields.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heywaitwithjay/  “Yours Truly” Coaching Program: https://jaymoonfields.com/coaching Jay Moon Fields’ Book “Teaching People Not Poses”: https://www.amazon.com/Teaching-People-Not-Poses-Principles/dp/1478326913/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaymoonfields

Maira’s work with Somatic and Psychedelic Therapy brings her clients to incredible breakthroughs, many of whom have struggled to find help through traditional therapeutic outlets.   Maira’s “Hey, Wait” moment came when she was driving through a fancy neighborhood and felt a whisper suggesting “You Belong Here.” She grew up as an immigrant, and constantly felt the desire to be a person of status within society. It was when she finally felt comfortable in herself, in her family, and in her surroundings, that she was truly able to embrace her wisdom and her career.   Understanding Somatic Therapy goes hand in hand with saying “Hey, Wait.” As soon as you are able to pause and soften your body, you are totally able to refocus your mind, reclaim your moment, and move into a more productive headspace.
