Becoming Untamed Podcast

About Becoming Untamed Podcast

Becoming Untamed is a podcast about designing a life that actually feels like yours. At 49 and 21, Jeremy and Grace are becoming untamed in very different ways. Together, they have deep, honest conversations about trusting yourself, questioning expectations, choosing your own path, and becoming who you actually are. This isn’t a podcast about having all the answers. It’s about curiosity, real stories, different perspectives, and the questions we carry but rarely say out loud. New episodes every week.

   Your Body Asked You to Rest (Now It's Telling You)

   What is your body telling you that you keep overriding? I was sixteen when the neck, back, and stomach pain started. I was athletic, I ate well, I went to the doctors, and months of tests found nothing. Years later, doing the work, I connected the dots: a lot of it was me holding on to trauma and stories and patterns. Now I notice it in my low back, my stomach, my chest, and I release it by moving: a walk with Jer on the phone the morning a flood of anxiety hit, and the offer on my best friend's house came the next day. (Grace) At the end of my marriage I had chronic stomach issues I didn't connect to the stress and anxiety I wasn't dealing with. I've been the guy who worked 120 hours a week and slept at the office. I pushed past in the gym, overrode the rest my body asked for, and got sick for it, until my body stopped asking and started telling. This round of my fitness has been the easiest it's ever been, and I didn't have to go extreme. (Jeremy) This episode is about what happens in our bodies: the body holding on to what the mind won't look at, getting curious instead of critical about a sensation, releasing through movement, the difference between sore from a workout and sore from something emotional, burnout as a way of avoiding your inside world, why a rest day every week isn't a reward, and what to do when you don't know what you want or need: slow down, breathe with your feet on the floor, and trust the first answer. Grace's one thing: get very, very curious about any feeling in your body. The minute she started getting curious instead of critical is when the doors opened. Jeremy's one thing: if you're brand new to this, maybe you don't get the message at first. Just feel the sensation. Make a time in the morning or the evening to see what your body is feeling, and maybe write it down. Tell us in the comments: where in your body do you feel it, and what have you been pushing past?

   When Your Environment Decides Who You Are

   What happens when the room decides how you feel? A family vacation. I was late to dinner because I had to write an offer, my family said they were disappointed, and I let it ruin me. That's when I realized I was letting my environment dictate how I was showing up, lessening who I was to meet people where they were at, and giving my power away to the situation. (Grace) A few years ago I was supposed to go to the Bahamas and the whole world shut down the week I was meant to leave. I've had the "if I just had this trip, this group, this amount of money, then I'd be happy" moment, and the second I think it, I've handed how I feel over to my environment. (Jeremy) This episode is about overcoming your environment, inner and outer: the people around you, the place you live, and your own emotional home. We get into what it means to be in the driver's seat of how you feel, how to stay in your own energy around people whose energy is different from yours (know your own energy, set an energetic guard, get curious and don't carry it), the "return to sender" practice for energy that isn't yours, letting go of expectations and outcomes, why "I'm not for everybody" is good news, and Jeremy's three-step framework: catch, choose, change. Grace's one thing: when you overcome your environment, you are the one setting the temperature. Jeremy's one thing: take a piece of paper, draw a line down the middle, and write who am I on one side and what's my environment on the other. Then one small thing this week to be you wherever you are. Tell us in the comments: where in your life is the room setting the temperature for you?

   You Don't Get to Pick What You Feel (Only Whether You Feel It)

   When did it stop being safe to feel your feelings?For me it was first grade. I was a big, loud kid with big energy and big emotions, I was in trouble just about every day, and I learned that feeling things got me punished. For Grace it came after her accident. If she looked too sad, her family worried about her safety. If she looked too happy, people would say she didn't care. If she acted out, the court would see it. So she held everything in.In this episode we talk about what that does over time: the guard that goes up, the belief that you don't need people, the "I'm fine" that turns automatic, and the numbness that comes after. We get into why a feeling you don't feel comes back with interest, why you don't get to choose what to feel, only whether you feel it, what it looked like when we named our frustration with each other right before we hit record, and the four rings of friendship, from the people you pass on the street to the friends who are consistently present.Grace's one thing: feelings are an essential part of your growth, your connection, and your love. Mine: feelings are the seasoning of life. You're not too much. You're allowed to have an off day.Tell us in the comments: when did feeling your feelings stop being okay for you?

   Whose permission are you waiting for?

   You only need permission from one person, and it is you. This week Grace and I ask whose permission you are waiting for, and what changes when you stop waiting. I have looked around to see what everyone else was doing before I moved. I have asked a mentor what he would do if he were me, when the better question was what I would do if I were me. Grace started her real estate career on a team, doing what the agents around her did, and only later saw she had been asking for permission when what she wanted was a perspective. Together we get into the difference between asking for a perspective and asking for permission, why waiting on someone else's yes turns into resentment (and who you actually resent), the boat you cannot steer until the motor is running, why maybe is a no, the red flags in anyone who wants to be the authority on your life, and the day I walked into a friend's house and took the home I have now without asking anyone if it was a good idea. Grace's one thing: you only need permission from yourself, and you do not need anyone else's validation. Mine: other people's wisdom is a great launching pad, as long as it lands and aligns with you. When it does not, thank them for sharing, and let them keep it. The question for the week: what is one thing you have been waiting for permission to do, and whose yes were you waiting for?

   What if you never lost yourself?

   Coming home to yourself is remembering who you already are. This week Grace and I ask what it means to come home to yourself, and how you find your way back when you have drifted. At the end of my marriage I had no idea who I was, what I liked, or what I wanted. Rediscovering that was my first trip home, and I have made the trip many times since. Two Marches ago Grace sat at an event in Mexico with her journal open and realized she did not know who she was either. She told a friend she was having an identity crisis. Her friend said, "Words matter. You are having an identity awakening." Together we get into how you start to sound like the people you spend your time with, the three steps I use to come back to myself (awareness, choice, change), why everyone wants change and few people want to change, what shifted when Grace admitted she was doing the work and secretly did not believe she could have what she wanted, and why calm felt wrong to her body after years in fight or flight. Grace's one thing: you remember who you are, and there are many ways to remember. Dancing, singing, talking, the people you love. Mine: awareness, choice, change. You choose when you change, how much you change, and whether you change at all. The question for the week: what is one thing you would do to come home to yourself, and do you believe you can have it? New episodes every Tuesday. If this one sounded like your life, send it to someone who needs to hear it.

   Why Do You Want to Be Noticed but Not Known?

   You can only be seen to the extent you see yourself. This week Grace and I ask why we are so afraid of being seen, and why we want attention without wanting to be known. I was made fun of as a kid for showing up big, so I learned to hide out. It kept me safe, and it kept me alone. Two weeks ago a friend stopped me at dinner and said she wanted the raw version of my thought, not the one I had processed for her. Grace has wanted to share her story since she was 16, and starting this podcast showed her how afraid she still is of what people will say. Together we get into the difference between attention and connection, letting people see you only on your terms, why receiving is part of being seen, presence as what makes being seen possible, and how to have a hard conversation without being harsh or making yourself the victim. Grace's one thing: the people around you want to see you and cheer you on, and the first step is accepting yourself. Mine: releasing fear takes bravery, and if you release it at the root, your whole life can change. The question for the week: who are you underneath the version you let people see, and who is one person you could let see that this week? New episodes every Tuesday.

   Are You The Same Person When Nobody's Watching?

   Actions over words. Energy over both. That is how Jeremy measures integrity, and this week he and Grace turn it on the one person you cannot perform for: yourself.Most of us have two versions. The one in the highlight reel, and the one deciding what to eat at 9pm when no one will ever know. Grace shares what 75 Hard and her first Hyrox race taught her about discipline when no one is keeping score. Jeremy tells the story of losing 55 pounds, and why the weight came off this time when he stopped punishing his body and started choosing it. Together they get into why the same action can carry a completely different energy, how to notice a mismatch without writing a story about the other person, and what changes when you have people who let you show up exactly as you are.Grace's one thing: the most powerful force on the planet is staying consistent with how you see yourself.Jeremy's: you are on your path when what you do aligns with who you are.The question for the week: who are you when nobody's watching, and what is one thing you will do for that person this week?New episodes every Tuesday.

   What If There Is No Perfect Decision?

   What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t making the wrong decision—but waiting for the perfect one? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore the pressure to get life “right” and why so many of us stay stuck searching for certainty before we’re willing to move forward. At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to the fear of making the wrong choice, the weight of big decisions, and the stories we tell ourselves about what will happen if we get it wrong. They explore the difference between certainty and self-trust, why every path comes with tradeoffs, and what changes when we stop trying to predict the future and start trusting ourselves to navigate whatever comes next. What if there isn’t one perfect decision—only the opportunity to make the next decision with honesty, courage, and intention? This is a conversation about letting go of perfection, embracing uncertainty, and discovering that the life you create is shaped less by one perfect choice and more by the person you become along the way.

   What If You Can Have It All?

   What if the question isn’t whether you can have it all—but whether you’re chasing the right “all”? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore one of the biggest beliefs shaping our lives: that we have to choose between success and happiness, ambition and peace, freedom and stability, or building a meaningful career and living a life that feels deeply aligned. At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to the tradeoffs we’ve been taught to expect and challenge the idea that living a fulfilling life always requires sacrificing what matters most. They explore where our definitions of success come from, why so many people feel like they’re constantly choosing between competing priorities, and what changes when we stop asking what we’re supposed to want and start asking what actually matters to us. What if “having it all” isn’t about doing more—but about creating a life where the things that matter most can exist together? This is a conversation about redefining success, questioning inherited beliefs, and discovering that your version of “all” doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s.

    What If You're Allowed To Change Your Mind?

    What if changing your mind isn’t a sign that you’ve failed—but a sign that you’ve grown? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore why so many of us feel trapped by decisions we’ve already made and the pressure to stay committed, even when something no longer feels true. At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to changing careers, relationships, beliefs, and dreams—and the courage it takes to choose a new direction. They explore the fear of disappointing others, the stories we tell ourselves about starting over, and the freedom that comes from realizing you’re allowed to evolve. What if changing your mind isn’t losing your way—but finding it? This is a conversation about growth, identity, and giving yourself permission to become someone your younger self couldn’t have imagined.

    Is It Selfish to Choose Yourself?

    Have you ever felt guilty for putting your own needs first? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore one of the biggest questions many of us carry: Is choosing yourself actually selfish? At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to the guilt of disappointing others, the fear of being seen as selfish, and the subtle ways we abandon ourselves to keep the peace. They explore the difference between self-care and selfishness, why so many of us feel responsible for other people’s happiness, and what becomes possible when we begin honoring our own needs without apologizing for them. What if choosing yourself isn’t taking something away from others—but becoming more fully who you’re meant to be? This is a conversation about boundaries, self-respect, and discovering that choosing yourself may be one of the most generous things you can do.

    Is It Okay to Not Have Your Life Figured Out Yet?

    What if you’re not behind—you just don’t know what comes next yet? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore the pressure to have your life figured out and why uncertainty can feel so uncomfortable. At 49 and 21, they bring very different perspectives to the same question: Does anyone ever really have life figured out? They talk about feeling behind, comparing your timeline to everyone else’s, and the pressure to know who you are, what you want, and where your life is going. They explore what it means to make room for uncertainty—and whether some of the most meaningful parts of life can only be discovered when you stop demanding that you already know the answer. What if not knowing isn’t a problem to solve? This is a conversation about uncertainty, possibility, and learning to trust your life even when you can’t see exactly where it’s going.

    How Do You Stop Comparing Your Life to Others?

    Have you ever looked at someone else’s life and suddenly felt worse about your own? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore why it’s so easy to compare where we are to where everyone else seems to be. At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to feeling behind, measuring success against other people, and the pressure to reach certain milestones on a timeline that may not even be yours. They explore how comparison changes the way we see ourselves, the role social media plays in amplifying it, and what we’re actually looking for when someone else’s life makes us question our own. Is it possible to stop comparing? Or is the deeper question how we learn to come back to ourselves? This is a conversation about comparison, identity, and learning to trust the timing and direction of your own life. Becoming Untamed — Designing a life that actually feels like yours.

    How Do You Learn to Trust Your Intuition?

    Have you ever known something before you could explain how you knew it? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore what it means to hear—and trust—your intuition. At 49 and 21, they share stories of the times their minds overrode what they already knew, the cost of ignoring their inner guidance, and the moments when following intuition led to something they never could have planned. They explore what intuition actually feels like, why it can be so hard to hear when the world around you is loud, and one of the hardest questions of all: How do you know the difference between intuition and fear? This is a conversation about inner knowing, self-trust, and learning to listen to the voice inside you—even when it doesn’t make logical sense.

    How Do You Design a Life That Actually Feels Like Yours?

In the first episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore the question at the heart of the podcast: How do you design a life that actually feels like yours? At 49 and 21, they’re navigating very different stages of life—but both are discovering what it means to question expectations, trust their own voices, and become more honest about the lives they actually want to live. They talk about the paths we inherit, the pressure to get life “right,” and what can happen when you begin asking a different question: What feels true for me? This is where Becoming Untamed begins.

    What If the ‘Right Path’ Doesn’t Feel Right?

At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to the pressure to make the right choices, follow the proven path, and build a life that makes sense to everyone around you.

    Why Do We Abandon Ourselves to Fit In?

    Why do we change who we are to feel like we belong? In this episode of Becoming Untamed, Jeremy and Grace explore the ways we learn to quiet our own voices, hide parts of ourselves, and become who we think other people want us to be. At 49 and 21, they bring different perspectives to the same deeply human tension: How do you belong without abandoning yourself? They talk about the desire for approval, the fear of being rejected, and the subtle ways we can lose ourselves while trying to stay connected to the people around us. What would change if belonging didn’t require you to become less of who you are? This is a conversation about authenticity, connection, and learning to choose yourself without giving up the people you love. Becoming Untamed — Designing a life that actually feels like yours.
