In this episode, Tiemert gives us a look into the unraveling and unchaining process that took place in her life, how her early childhood experiences shaped her identity and became a catapult for what she would later experience as an adult and her mission to help other women undergo the same unchaining journey that she has embarked on

Her personal experience with depression has equipped her with specific tools to not only help herself, but influence and empower an entire community of women who typically shy away from conversations about mental health due to cultural stigma and taboo. Her genuine ability to share openly and courageously is captivating and inspiring.

Lean in to this episode with attentiveness and mindfulness as she shares some key signals to look for when we're not feeling ourselves and how to break the cycles that we've been repeating and resulting in unwanted results that keep us chained.
