TRIGGER WARNING: The subjects of menstrual cycles, infertility, pregnancy, childbirth and hysterectomy are discussed in this episode.
Jenna drops in for a bonus episode to share the story of her recent surgery. After a long battle with infertility, resulting in the birth of her son via emergency c-section, Jenna found pain to be riding side-car to her life. Thinking this was her "cross to bear" she sought out to manage pain through Pilates, bodywork and meditative practices. It was a serendipitous series of events that led her into a surgeon's office to find out that there was, in fact, something wrong that was causing this pain. The end result was a laparoscopic hysterectomy. In this episode, Jenna shares the lead up to diagnosis, the decision for surgery and the way she navigated her experience from a place of empowerment and choice.
Jenna has a candid check-in call with Carrie Pages, Anula Maiberg, Jessica Valant, and Lesley Logan. They discuss everything from setting your rates, to traveling, to social media. It's an insiders take on how professionals discuss their work and support each other's lives!
We're pulling the curtain back on our own office! Jenna has a conversation with her Administrator, Melanie Neumeier, about the development of their working and personal relationship and share their secrets to growing successful, and collaborative support team in any business!

This week we talk about Jenna's trip to the opera and how it brought a new lesson about judgement to the classroom of life (and Pilates.) We'll also hear from the man behind the photographs that many of us have hanging in our studios: Mr. Chuck Rapoport. We're going to take a trip back in time to that fateful day where he shot photos of Joseph Pilates in his natural habitat. We also have a rant from a caller who makes a hard choice to leave a studio where she feels gratified by the work, but not the paycheck.
