Ever feel like you’re holding on to way too much—whether it’s stress, expectations, or even emotional constipation? You’re not alone.
In this episode, I’m joined by Angela Jamieson—a former engineer turned speaker, bestselling author, and “poop philosopher”—to explore how the digestive system holds powerful lessons for living with more joy, freedom, and ease.
Angela’s book, Using No. 2 to Get to No. 1, takes a hilarious (and surprisingly profound) look at how letting go—just like our gut does—can transform your life. Together, we dive into:
✅ What “emotional constipation” looks like in real life (and how to relieve it)
✅ Why the little things you ignore might actually be the big things
✅ How your gut is connected to joy, freedom, and authentic living
✅ Practical ways to stop “swallowing” everyone else’s expectations
Whether you’re feeling bloated, burnt out, or just tired of holding it all in, this conversation will leave you laughing, nodding along, and ready to release what no longer serves you.
