The Wellness Hour: Fertility, Business Peaks, and Learning to Let Go (Ep. 85)

The Wellness Hour: Fertility, Business Peaks, and Learning to Let Go (Ep. 85)26 aug53 min

In today's episode, Lacey and Jensen sit down for an unfiltered Wellness Hour catch-up. From Jensen's escalating deer standoffs in Kamloops to Lacey's decision to finally let go of her pregnancy timeline at 35, plus a raw look back at seven years of building Lifestyle U.

It's just Lacey and Jensen this week for a Wellness Hour catch-up (Kira's soaking up July with her family). They start with Jensen's increasingly wild deer encounters in Kamloops before diving into real talk: Lacey opens up about releasing the mental timeline she'd put on getting pregnant, what her fertility clinic referral and acupuncture journey have looked like, and why she's finally made peace with "it'll happen when it happens."

From there, the conversation shifts to Jensen's 28th birthday reflections — looking back on the peaks and pits of building Lifestyle U from the ground up, Lacey hitting nearly 500K followers, and the mindset shifts that got them here. It's a looser, more personal episode than usual — equal parts funny, honest, and encouraging.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Releasing a self-imposed timeline (on anything — pregnancy, business, life milestones) often brings more peace than hitting the goal itself. Small, consistent physical practices (like acupuncture) can meaningfully shift chronic symptoms over time — Lacey's period cramps went from 6 ibuprofen a day to 1 over three months. The version of yourself that took the leap before you had it figured out deserves more credit than you probably give it.
