Letโs Get Real with Jena Burris
Welcome to Letโs Get Real, the podcast for women who feel like theyโre holding it all together on the outsideโฆ but falling apart on the inside.
If youโre exhausted from pretending, overwhelmed by the pressure to be everything for everyone, or unsure who you even are anymoreโyouโre not alone. And youโre not crazy.
Letโs Get Real is where we have honest conversations about the struggles most people avoidโhealing emotional wounds, losing yourself in motherhood, rebuilding your identity, and learning how to live whole again.
Iโm Jena Burrisโwife, mom, and your host. With a background in marriage and family therapy, life coaching, and years spent navigating life behind the scenes of the NFL and Hollywood, Iโm passionate about creating a space where real conversations lead to real healing.
Each week, youโll hear real stories, practical tools, and the reminder that freedom is closer than you think. Because I believe that in order to heal, we have to get real.
New episodes every Tuesday. Real talk. Real tools. Real healing.

Guest: Pamela Michaux
What happens when silence becomes your survivalโฆ but also your prison?
In this powerful part two conversation, Pamela Michaux returns to share more of her journey from enduring childhood abuse to reclaiming her voice as a woman and a mother.
Pamela isnโt just telling a story, sheโs giving us language for pain, for panic, for the hidden battles so many women carry silently. Her story reminds us that healing isnโt about having it all together. Itโs about speaking up, seeking help, and advocating for yourself.
In this episode, we talk about:
- What anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias really feel like (and how to spot the warning signs)
- The difference between silence as protectionโand silence as self-betrayal
- Why loyalty can quietly destroy you
- How Pamela used writing to reclaim her storyโand why speaking the truth is worth the risk
- The power of surrounding yourself with people who let you shine
She also introduces a term youโll never forget: Vitamin Nโthe life-changing practice of saying no. ๐๐ป
Pamelaโs wisdom is born from lived experience. Itโs raw. Itโs honest. And itโs full of the kind of strength that only grows in the dark. If youโve ever felt like you lost your voiceโor questioned whether youโre โallowedโ to walk away from whatโs hurting youโthis is for you.
This episode will challenge you to ask:
- Am I surrounding myself with givers or takers?
- Am I being honest about what Iโm carrying?
- Do I need to start saying no in order to say yes to healing?
Itโs never too late to take your power back.
You are worth it.
You are not alone.
And this is not the end of your story.
