EP 372 | From Inner Critic to Abundance: A Path To Flourishing

WITH AMANDA BRENDA JASMIN

 
 
 
“But we can’t just plug our ears and close our eyes and, and smell the flowers and dance in the garden when the world is falling.
”
— Brenda Jasmin
 

What happens when you stop silencing your emotions and start owning your story?

Andrea and Brenda Jasmin explore emotional resilience, social awareness, and abundance. From inner critics to financial empowerment, this episode is a guide to healing, thriving, and making a difference—without burning out or tuning out.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Brenda Jasmin, a positive psychology coach and resilience trainer who helps women move from surviving to truly flourishing.

Together, we have a raw and inspiring conversation about what it means to navigate your emotions, quiet your inner critic, and stay present in a world that often asks us to either numb out or hustle harder. We also talk money—how our stories around finances shape our purpose and how an abundance mindset can be a powerful act of activism.
