KJ Nazrul: On Podcasting, Protecting our Energy and Essentiality of Support Systems

Hello, dear ones. Thanks for joining me back in here. As we inched towards the end of the first month in this new year, I hope you’ve managed to land yourself on a routine that’s easeful and gentle, and one that feels fitting for you and your heart. The introduction part was recorded during the early days into this new year, evident in my melancholy, so if you’re still working towards landing at that space, may the thought that you don’t have to tackle that alone brings about some serenity. 

My guest today couldn’t be more fitting to lend some light and guidance in the areas of compassion. Joining me today is a very dear friend of mine, and an ally in many a way, Kimberly Jane (KJ) Nazrul. KJ is a licensed trauma-focused psychotherapist, artist, and speaker with an obsession with words and a knack for making grilled cheese sandwiches. She helps essential frontline workers, healthcare providers, and educators recover their resiliency via expressive arts, EMDR Therapy, and methods of compassionate questioning to prevent burnout so that they can continue to heal their communities. 


We jammed about our shared podcasting journeys, her practices to protect her energy while showing up to serve communities that are important to her, the essentiality of leaning on our support systems to land and recharge, and finally, her one golden advice, or rather a question we can all ask ourselves to channel the courage towards following our passions. This conversation with KJ was everything. I already know it’s only just the beginning of many beautiful unions and collaborative work together. A series it will be!
