Introversion Vs Extraversion - is it trauma based?

Introversion Vs Extraversion - is it trauma based?

In this episode, I discuss how I became more of an introvert due to childhood and adulthood trauma. I challenge you to ask yourself, is it because of the way you were treated as a child or in several relationships that you identify with one or the other? I’d love to know your thoughts! Connect with me on IG @jusjae0504. Love and light to you and yours! Happy healing! 🙏🏾💕

Too close to the mirror; backup

Too close to the mirror; backup

Sometimes, we are too close to the mirror to see our flaws, what we need to work on and through and our true potential. It’s good to take a step back to get the full affect of life.

The Gardner and the garden.

The Gardner and the garden.

I’m this episode, I am inspired by my physical garden in the yard. I’ve neglected it for so long that weeds have begun to grow. But despite what’s going on around it, the bell peppers are budding and blooming, the tomato tree is growing back and the watermelon is sprouting. It is a physical depiction of my current mindset! I’ve been working through the weeds and just now noticing the growth that’s taken place.

LOVE YOURSELF! Mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually! Because the world may never.

LOVE YOURSELF! Mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually! Because the world may never.

In this episode, I dive deep into self love and my journey back to it. LOVE is embracing all of you! The parts of you that you like, don’t like, not sure if you like yet, folks claim they don’t like etc. it is making YOU the highest priority! Making sure that you are healthy, through exercise and eating the right kinds of foods for your body. It’s about taking spiritual baths with some essential oils, candles and rod petals when needed. It’s about setting healthy boundaries to avoid situations and people that don’t serve you, that only wish to upset you and irritate you! Self love truly is the best love, because if you don’t love yourself, how in the hell can you truly love someone else?

Are we polluting the world or cleaning up the mess?

As within, so without! In this episode, I dive into how out mental pollution is a reflection of our physical world pollution. As a collective, we manifest things! And if a majority of the collective has a negatively polluted mindset our physical world will continue to be polluted. Listen to this episode to gain insight on how you can help stop this. After all, it starts with us! Unifying our communities one mind at a time on The Jae Files.

Self Awareness ; accidental greatness

Self Awareness ; accidental greatness

Welcome to another episode of The Jae Files! Episode #4 entitled Self awareness! This episode was inspired by my reflection of 2019! Yes we only have a month 3 weeks left in this year! Crazy! I know! This year is the first year i can actually look back on a lot of situations and noticed how I've grown and evolved for the better! Relationships that started and those that came to an end!I cut my hair and most recently totaled my car. I can't help but smile because in previous ears, the year would just go by and i didn't feel like I was growing, i would feel unstable, and just really in limbo about what took place.  But not this year!
