Loving Me Before I Love You Podcast with Tammy Nicole and Friends
Welcome to Loving Me Before I Love You, the podcast for women who are ready to stop losing themselves while searching for love, validation, and belonging.
Hosted by Coach Tammy Nicole, this show is where healing meets honesty, self-discovery meets transformation, and women learn how to reclaim their voice, their worth, and their power.
Each week, Coach Tammy Nicole sits down with therapists, relationship experts, life coaches, authors, and everyday people with extraordinary stories to explore the conversations that help us become healthier, more whole versions of ourselves. From self-love and emotional healing to relationships, boundaries, confidence, mother wounds, childhood experiences, mental health, identity, and personal growth, no topic is off limits.
This is not about becoming someone new.
It's about becoming the woman you were always meant to be.
If you've ever struggled with people-pleasing, abandonment wounds, emotional unavailability, unhealthy relationship patterns, low self-worth, or the feeling that you've spent your life taking care of everyone except yourself, you're in the right place.
Through meaningful conversations, practical tools, and powerful insights, you'll learn how your past shaped you, how your patterns were formed, and most importantly, how to create a future that aligns with the woman you're becoming.
Because healthy love doesn't start when someone chooses you.
It starts when you choose yourself.
So grab your journal, take a deep breath, and join us each week as we do the work of healing, growing, and becoming.
Welcome to Loving Me Before I Love You.
Your journey back to yourself starts here.

The Truth About Independence vs. Isolation with Jayna Palmer
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Being independent is a strength. Living in isolation is a survival strategy.
Somewhere along the way, many women learned that relying on others led to disappointment, abandonment, or pain. So we built lives where we could do everything ourselves. We called it independence. But what if what we're really experiencing is isolation?
In this powerful conversation, Coach Tammy Nicole and certified life coach, speaker, and author Jayna Palmer unpack the subtle but life-changing difference between healthy independence and emotional isolation. Together, they explore how unresolved trauma, fear, and self-protection can quietly keep us disconnected from the very relationships and support we desire.
Jayna K. Palmer is an international speaker, author, and identity disruptor known for her raw truth, emotional intensity, and unforgettable stage presence. As the founder of the Resurrect Her Voice Movement, she helps women recognize the voices driving their decisions, expose the destructive patterns keeping them stuck, and take ownership so they can finally shift direction. Her work focuses on identity transformation, toxic patterns, forgiveness, personal power, and helping women reclaim the voice trauma tried to silence. Her message is simple yet profound: Your past may explain you, but it does not own you.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- The difference between healthy independence and emotional isolation.
- Why hyper-independence is often rooted in survival, not strength.
- How fear, shame, and past experiences influence our relationships.
- Practical ways to reconnect with yourself and others without losing your independence.
- Why healing requires courage, vulnerability, and ownership.
If you've ever said, "I've got it," while secretly wishing someone would simply show up for you, this conversation will challenge, encourage, and empower you to choose connection over self-protection.
