Playing The Fool
Welcome to the PLAYING THE FOOL Podcast, I am your host Jarna Saunders.
I am a proud as fuck Life and Relationship Coach and personal development nerd, with a HUGE passion to get every single woman in the arena of their own lives.
I have over 10 years’ experience coaching 100's of women and couples.
I've been where you may be right now: for years I sat on the side-lines of my life, stuck in fear, in my head, in the past of that ONE TIME I was put back in my corner and I let it cripple me with fear.
That was until one day when the PAIN of staying hidden was too much to take and I made the choice to get my butt in the ARENA of MY OWN life.
To take the risk of looking like a beginner, looking silly and GOD forbid looking like a FOOL.
My promise to you is to show up here in all my parts and seasons with my heart proudly on my sleeve, gate keeping nothing but asking us all to WALK OUR GOD DAM ARSES out of the corners we were never born to exist in.
Let's Play.

Episode 14:The Magic in the Messy Middle: How I let it Suck and Still Feel Safe.
What do you actually have control over babe? If you said yourself then I whole heartedly agree. So why do we spend so much time trying to control so many things that are completely outside of our control?
This week we deep dive into -
- The reminder I needed to give myself: permission to let it suck sometimes.
- How focusing too much on outcomes can take away the joy and magic of creating
- What’s been going on at home this week (spoiler: total chaos) and why vulnerability matters.
- The difference between what I can control and what I can’t—and how I find my way back to myself.
- Why slowing down, setting boundaries, and making myself a priority keeps me grounded when life gets messy.
- How I’ve shifted from trying to control everything to focusing on influence and trust.
This episode feels is a very honest take wading through messy middle and reminding both of us that growth doesn’t come from perfection, it comes from showing up.
