Consciously Unbecoming
Welcome to Consciously Unbecoming — the podcast where we throw out the rulebook, rewrite our stories, and step into the truest, most authentic versions of ourselves. 🌿
This space is where we get real, where we dive into the deepest parts of our souls and have conversations that matter. I’ll be sitting down with incredible guests who’ve walked through fire and emerged with stories of resilience, healing, and radical authenticity. These are the kinds of conversations that make you feel seen, heard, and empowered to heal, grow, and finally shed the weight of limiting beliefs.
We’ll untangle the beliefs and expectations that were shoved onto us — beliefs formed by society, trauma, religion, family, and everything else that shaped us without our consent. It’s time to release the weight of all those “shoulds” and rediscover who we truly are beneath them.
Imagine it like this: You’re sitting in your best friend’s living room, sipping tea, sharing your heart, and suddenly realizing that everything you’ve been searching for was inside of you all along. We’re here to help you reconnect with the most powerful, authentic version of yourself — before the world tried to tell you who you should be.
Join me, Jess Kiely-Vogelpohl, Founder of Consciously Unbecoming, Award-Winning Belief Revision Coach, Keynote Speaker, and mama of two, as we dive into the powerful intersection of Neuroscience, Psychology, and Quantum Physics to help you rewrite your beliefs and reclaim your life. Think of it as a warm, soul-nourishing chat — but with a lot more heart and a lot less pretending.
Spoiler alert: You’ve always known the answers. We’re just here to help you remember.
So grab your favorite cup of tea (or whatever feels good), and let’s unlearn, unbecome, and rewire together. ✨💖

7. Unbecoming our Shitty Body Image
Hi there,
Have you ever stopped to think of all your body has done for you as you curse it, loathe it, and wish it were different?
For years, I was always trying to be different! Thinner, stronger, prettier.
Insert a slew of other adjectives; words I thought I HAD to be. Words that I thought defined who I was or determined my worth!
I thought to myself that I would be happier when I became a certain size or weight...or so I thought!
But, in reality, I’d hit that goal and would feel no different.
I didn’t suddenly love the person staring back at me. All I could see was cellulite, thighs that were too big, pudge on my belly, non-toned arms, stretch marks, a size much different than my friends or what I saw in magazines.
Enter the guilt and shame of never feeling enough! Never quite loving myself for the exact skin I was in, during that moment, during that season.
It wasn’t until losing both parents and giving life to my children, did I realize exactly who I was and how powerful my body and my mind were.
It wasn’t until then did I realize the value of health over vanity.
So, let's unbecome the BS belief that we must look a certain way in order to feel worthy of love. Because, just by being born, exactly who are you - RIGHT NOW, scars and all, you are worthy of the greatest love known to the universe. It's time we believe that.
With so much freaking love,
JV
