I am joined by my dear friend Lisa Fischer today to have a candid conversation about this powerful topic. If you haven’t been following along, over the last several episodes […]

12: Masculine and Feminine Energy

David is back to discuss, and to quiz me, about masculine and feminine energy, how these show up in each and every one of us, and some of the many challenges we navigate in a relationship related to these two powerful forces. We get super vulnerable during our conversation, both of us sharing some stories […]

11: Do You Need More Variety Than Your Partner?

We have been transitioning from “self” into “other.” Last week’s episode was about understanding your partner’s energy, introversion and extroversion, and understanding how your energy is different from your partner’s. And today we are continuing this relationship conversation and I am going back to my therapy roots, I’m putting my therapy hat on. I used […]

10: Understanding Your Partner’s Energy

I am continuing to talk about things “other” related. As you guys know, this whole podcast is about living your life from the Front Seat, about being unapologetically who you are in your life, love, and business. I have been talking about the self, being unapologetically who you are, understanding your “side of the net” […]

9: Codependent Much?

Today’s topic is codependency. Oh Wow. That’s a doozy. For those of you who have never heard about codependency before, this is one of the biggest topics that has impacted my life as well as my business. The next two months we are diving into self and others. If you are coming into this and […]

8: A Balance of Self and Others

We are making a big move, from “self” to “others.” We do not live in a silo. We do not live alone. We live with others and one of the best models that I ever learned was this model of attunement and differentiation. And that’s what today’s episode is going to be all about. Today […]

7: Who Are YOU?

What is our job? It is our job to complete ourselves and go into relationships as a whole person. Nobody else can do this. Someone else cannot “complete” us, and this can be hard, very hard. Especially for women because we, as caretakers, can struggle with our “side of the net.” I use a tennis […]

6: Why Judgers and Perceivers Get on Each Other’s Nerves!

Hello everybody, welcome. This is Jessica Butts, your host of the Front Seat Life Podcast, and today I have interviewed two different people to really highlight the dichotomy of this week’s episode, which is Thinking and Feeling.

4: Growing Up Intuitive

Hey there, welcome back! Come and join me as a fly on the wall while my good friend (and former boyfriend) David and I discuss what life is like as an Intuitive. We both realized at some point, it took some time believe me, that being an Intuitive, despite it making us complete weirdos, is […]

3: Understanding Introversion and Extroversion

In this episode, I, a devoted extrovert, sit down with two wonderful people who are leaning towards the introverted side of things. Stephanie and Jeni have agreed to join me today to share some stories about what it is like to be an introvert in an extroverted world. I believe our conversation brings some interesting […]
