In this episode, Jenna Marilyn is talking about emotional hygiene — the kind you can’t see, but you definitely feel.

She unpacks the invisible buildup of emotional and energetic gunk — and the sacred responsibility of tending to your inner world the way you would your body after a sweaty hike.

Jenna shares her personal story of emotional overload, self-isolation, and the shift that changed everything:

You don’t have to avoid emotions or other people’s energy — you just have to clean yourself off.

You’ll hear about:

• What emotional hygiene actually is — and why it’s just as essential as physical hygiene
• The difference between emotional creators and emotional absorbers
• Why Jenna isolated herself for months — and how she found her way back
• The hiking metaphor that reframed her emotional experience
• Real-life emotional messes: dumpers, overleakers, energy suckers, and more
• Why energetic spaces are shared spaces — and how to stop making them dirty
• Jenna’s before-and-after practices to feel clear, grounded, and like herself again

If you’ve ever left a room feeling off, questioned whether a feeling was yours, or just want to feel more you in your everyday life — this episode is your energetic invitation.

Take what you want. Leave what you don’t.

And maybe — take an emotional shower after.
