  • Nervous System Winter Reset
    Jan 20 2026

    Winter doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you’re human.

    In this episode of the Black Sheep Podcast, Jen and Jess talk honestly about winter health, nervous system regulation, and why forcing summer energy in the darkest months burns people out. This isn’t biohacking. This isn’t hustle. This is real life on a homestead, lived in rhythm with the seasons.

    We talk about slowing down without guilt, building evening routines that actually help you sleep, winter nutrition without perfectionism, vitamin D, cold exposure, sauna, decluttering your home and your nervous system, and why January is not the time to reinvent yourself.

    We get into family rhythm, parenting without overstimulation, seasonal energy shifts, creativity as medicine, and why most people feel depressed in winter because they refuse to listen to their bodies.

    If winter has you feeling tired, unmotivated, or off track, you’re not broken. You’re just early.

    Listen if you’re ready to stop fighting the season and start working with it.

  • Pattern Recognition and Modern Psyops
    Jan 5 2026

    In this episode we talk about pattern recognition, media narratives, and why certain global events seem to arrive fully packaged with emotion, meaning, and an approved reaction attached. We explore how trauma, headlines, and speed shape public perception, why questioning can get framed as disloyalty, and what it means to think for yourself in a time of nonstop crisis stories. We also get into the role of the internet, censorship, “problem, reaction, solution” framing, digital IDs, AI, and how to stay centered instead of constantly hijacked by fear. The focus is simple, stay aware, notice repetition, and keep your capacity for independent thought intact.

  • Living in a Dysregulated Society
    Dec 15 2025

    We talk about what it actually feels like to live inside a dysregulated society. Not theory. Real life. Anger. Burnout. Fight mode. Freeze mode. People pleasing. Doom scrolling. Nervous systems pushed past capacity and called normal.

    This is a raw, honest conversation about why so many people feel on edge, exhausted, numb, or reactive, and how the system quietly trains us to stay that way. We break down fight, flight, freeze, and fawn through lived experience, not textbook language. We talk about work culture, technology, stress leaves, identity, parenting, relationships, and what happens when your body finally says enough.

    This episode is about sovereignty. Learning how to feel safe again. Learning how to slow down without guilt. Learning how to listen when your body hits a wall instead of pushing harder.

    If you feel tired for no clear reason. If rest feels uncomfortable. If anger shows up faster than clarity. This one is for you.

  • Periods, Pain, and The Truth No One Tells Women
    Nov 24 2025

    Disclaimer

Nothing said here represents or reflects the views, policies, or positions of any institution, organization, or college we’re connected to.

    ___________________________________

    In this episode, we sit down with holistic chiropractor Dr. Jenna for a raw, honest, and long overdue conversation about women’s health.
    We cover everything your doctor never had time to explain, everything school skipped, and everything women are left to figure out alone.

    We get into periods, birth control, intuition, nervous system regulation, cold plunges, hormone chaos, menopause, mammograms, thermography, trauma, emotional cycles, and why women have to become the experts of their own bodies.

    It’s funny, vulnerable, chaotic in all the right ways, and packed with real stories from our own lives as partners, parents, and women trying to heal in a system that barely understands us.

    This one is for the women who want answers, for the men who want to support them better, and for anyone tired of being told to numb, shrink, hush, or push through.

  • What no one tells you about homesteading
    Nov 3 2025

    This episode is raw, emotional, and real. We open up about losing Daisy, our first cow, and what it meant to make the decision to butcher her on our own land. From the emotional lead-up to the day itself, to the grief that followed, to how the farm has changed since, this conversation goes deep into what it really means to live close to life and death. It’s not easy to talk about, but it’s the truth of homesteading where love, loss, and gratitude all live side by side.

  • The First Climate Lockdown in Canada?
    Sep 15 2025

    In this episode of the Black Sheep Podcast, we dig into the lockdown in Nova Scotia that banned hiking, fishing, hunting, and more under the guise of wildfire prevention. At the same time, the government lifted a 15-year ban on uranium exploration in the very same forests now off-limits to citizens. We connect the dots between pandemic emergency powers and the new climate emergency narrative, asking who really benefits from these restrictions. From massive fines to social pressure, we unpack the same old playbook of control and fear, and why Canadians need to pay attention now.
