Raising Wholeness Podcast
Welcome to Raising Wholeness, the podcast that invites you to step into your highest self and embrace the full spectrum of your human experience. Hosted by Jenn Reilly, this space is for those of us who are ready to evolve, break old patterns, and unlock parts of ourselves we've forgotten—or never even knew existed.
If you're in the midst of a transformation, seeking to deepen your connection with your authentic self, and looking to break free from the limitations that have held you back, this podcast is for you.
Jenn's journey into wholeness was sparked by motherhood—a raw awakening that demanded she show up as the best version of herself, not just for her daughter, but for her own life.
In this space, we dive into the practices, insights, and stories that will help you align with your true design. From nervous system regulation to trauma integration, embodiment, and the dance of feminine and masculine energetics, Raising Wholeness covers the full terrain of personal evolution.
It's about raising ourselves—and our children—from a foundation of embodied wholeness, creating ripple effects that go beyond the individual and into every relationship, every action, and every choice we make.
If you're ready to explore the depth of who you are, to confront your shadows, and to step into more presence, aliveness, and freedom, join us.
This podcast isn’t just about self-discovery; it’s about thriving in your truest, most aligned form.
Let's awaken together. Your presence here means the world. Subscribe, share, and let’s dive into this transformation.

Welcome to the Raising Wholeness podcast. I’m Jenn Reilly, your host and guide on a journey of deepening into the full complexity and simplicity of our human experience. As a coach, mentor, and advocate for women’s rights, I’m passionate about supporting women—especially those navigating the shifts of motherhood and leadership—on their path to embodied wholeness.
Through my own transformative journey, catalyzed by early motherhood and postpartum, I’ve learned that true wholeness means embracing every part of ourselves: the strengths, the challenges, and everything in between. It’s about honoring our cycles, aligning with our unique design, and cultivating self-trust and support as we move through life.
On this podcast, we explore the deep and sometimes messy human experience—tending to our bodies, minds, and spirits in a way that is conscious, compassionate, and attuned.
Whether you’re seeking to heal generational patterns, deepen your leadership, or find more balance in your life, Raising Wholeness is a space where we can evolve together.
If you’re ready to move from surviving to thriving, to lead from a place of wholeness, and to model this for the next generation, you’re in the right place.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. I’m honored to walk alongside you.
