Safe in My Body is a podcast about what it really looks like to come back to yourself, especially when life, business, and healing feel messy. Through solo episodes and honest guest stories, we explore what it means to feel safe in your body, your voice, and your choices. At its heart, this podcast is about self-trust, honesty, and learning to live from your own body — not someone else’s expectations.
What happens when you follow the “right” path, graduate from college, land the job, but still feel lost? In this episode, I talk with Jaimee Kate Mayne about the moment she realized success didn’t feel like alignment… and made the bold decision to quit her job and start over.
We explore the messy, in-between moments of walking away from a life that looked good on paper, the emotional crash that can follow big decisions, and how Jaimee learned to slow down, listen to her body, and rebuild from the inside out.
Jaimee opens up about:
The pressure to live up to expectations after graduation
Her road trip and the moment that sparked change
Living in a co-working space in San Francisco
Her first experiences with meditation and self-trust
What it really looks like to integrate healing into your everyday life
This is a raw, honest conversation about burnout, reinvention, and what it takes to stop performing and start embodying the life you truly want.
