This episode is about finally getting out of your own way. The thoughts, the patterns, the need to be right, the fear of being misunderstood — we go there. If you’ve been feeling stuck, emotionally drained, or like you're constantly performing for people who don’t even see you, this is your moment to pause, reflect, and release.

Let this be your sign to stop trying to earn peace and just start living in it.

You know that feeling when someone skips your story and suddenly your whole nervous system goes into crisis mode? Same. In this episode, Bria spirals (lovingly) about how social media is messing with our friendships. The soft blocks, the shared activity feature, the mute button, and that quiet panic when you realize someone you love hasn't engaged with your content in a year.

From the paranoia of "did I do something" to the heartbreak of realizing you might have been muted after having a baby, Bria unpacks how the digital age has turned our friendships into passive performances. It's not just vanity. It's overstimulation, blurred boundaries, and connection fatigue. This is for anyone who’s ever questioned where they stand with someone because of a like or lack thereof.

Whether you're feeling muted, misunderstood, or just plain over it, this is your safe space. Grab a matcha, mute your ego, and let’s talk about it.

MY SKIN ROUTINE: https://liketk.it/5e7tZ

In this episode, I’m unpacking the unspoken parts of pregnancy, postpartum, and the identity shift no one prepares you for. From the physical changes to the mental chaos, to the quiet question of “will I ever feel like myself again?” This is my honest take on the messy, beautiful, and often isolating journey of becoming someone new. Not the old me… but maybe someone even better.

Because I Love You is the podcast where tough love meets tender truths. Hosted by Bria Jones, this is your safe space to unpack the messy, moody, and magical parts of being human — from personal glow-ups and identity crises to spiritual awakenings and petty realizations.

In this episode of Because I Love You, I’m walking you through the surprisingly unhinged (but incredibly effective) things that have actually helped me thrive postpartum. From reclaiming my identity with nostalgic playlists to forcing myself into twice-a-day showers like it’s a religion, this is not your typical “go take a walk and drink water” advice. I talk about the small rituals, weird hacks, unexpected joys, and raw moments that have made this wild transition a little more manageable—and dare I say, even fun. Whether you’re deep in the newborn bubble or just navigating a major life shift, these insights might be exactly what you didn’t know you needed.

You ever stop to think maybe you’re not actually afraid of failing... you’re just terrified of what happens if it actually works out? In this episode, Bria gets real about the uncomfortable truth behind self-sabotage, why success feels unsafe when you’re used to chaos, and how we unconsciously block the good things we say we want. From toxic relationship patterns to career procrastination, she breaks down the messy middle between wanting more and being ready to receive it. If you’ve ever pushed away peace because it felt “off,” this one’s for you.

Outgrowing yourself sounds empowering… until you're in the middle of it wondering who the hell you even are anymore. In this episode, I’m breaking down the uncomfortable, sometimes embarrassing process of shedding past versions of yourself, (the ones you may not even like anymore) but still weirdly miss. From cringing at old TikToks to mourning toxic coping habits like bed rotting and isolation, I get real about the identity shift that comes with major life changes, especially motherhood. We’re talking grief, discomfort, and the quiet ways comfort zones keep you stuck in lives you no longer want. If you’re caught between who you were and who you’re trying to become, this one’s for you.

We can’t always choose what we inherit—but we can choose what we do with it.

In this episode, Bria opens up about inheriting depression and what it’s like living with the weight of mental health struggles that didn’t start with her… but could end with her. Instead of falling into victim mode, she talks about doing the unsexy, preventative work to keep herself mentally afloat.

It’s not glamorous. It’s not always inspiring. But it’s real. And if depression runs in your family, this one might hit deeper than you expect.

Spoiler: my birth didn’t go the “traditional” route — and that was the plan.

In this episode, I’m sharing the story of my birth story- what led me to make that decision, how it felt, and what it taught me about trusting my body in a world full of opinions. No drama, no guilt — just intuition, a little anesthesia, and a whole lot of clarity.

Whether you pushed, were induced, had a home birth, a hospital birth, a surprise c-section, or anything in between — this episode is for every mom who made the best call she could with the body, brain, and baby she had.

Because birth isn’t about proving anything. It’s about owning your power — even when no one’s clapping.Spoiler: my birth didn’t go the “traditional” route — and that was the plan.
