Ever catch yourself judging too quickly—whether it’s your cat… or a friend? You’re not alone!

In this episode, Kim and Jill dive into the art of “taming the beast within”—those instant reactions and judgments we make about others (and even our pets!). From hilarious stories about misbehaving cats to honest confessions about bodily reactions to stress, they explore how fast opinions can trigger physical responses—and why honoring someone else’s choices is harder than it sounds.

Key takeaways:
- Instant judgments create real chemical changes in our bodies.
- Practicing respect means holding space instead of offering fixes or advice.
- Small course corrections in thought can have big emotional payoffs.

Tune in for relatable laughs, practical wisdom, and tips on slowing down your own “chemical factory” before judgment takes over!

Hello, lovely listeners, and good morning, Kim. Good morning, Jill. Good morning, everyone. One harmonic hole. W H O L E Hole. Let's see if AI can get that one today. Right? The transcript. Harmonic hole. Yes. Oh, my goodness. Okay, that was not planned. I just totally came on out.

Today. We had a lot to talk about Jill today, and what we came up with is taming the. To me, it's like taming the beast within. How do we not impose our opinions on something and if we do, how fast that triggers a reaction in the body? Like, how do you keep that tamed down? Taming the beast. Yeah, like, respect for someone. And I hesitate to someone else because my experience this morning was with my cat, it's not with someone else, it's with a cat.

And, you know, I look out and she's doing what cats do, she's hunting. And we've talked about this before, and I understand she's cat. I get her natural instincts, and yet it just irritates me when I see her doing that. And it's like, how do I respect who she is? And sometimes I can. But this morning, what did I say, Kim? I got on the phone and I was like, what do I do, Kim, when my cat. When I think my cat's an asshole? Yep.

And I mean, cat is adorable. She's so cute. She'll come and find you and rub on you and roll around and just be the sweetest thing. She's got super soft fur, she's got blue eyes. She's pretty. And I just was like, you a hole. Ye.

Kim's like, you gotta respect her choices. And I'm like, do I? We do. It's even. I had a couple incidences already this morning that really, like, I wanted to go very quickly into putting my opinions, my judgments, whatever, my. What I think is the right thing, I wanted to throw at it right away.

And then for myself, it. Like, if anybody knows me, there's times where all of a sudden I have to go to the bathroom, like, instantaneously. It's like a bladder spasm. And like, I gotta go now.

And it's different than, say, I've had babies. You know, things change down there. It's different.

It's more of an energetic and emotional pissed off energy.

And it came on very quickly as an. I didn't even realize how fast that one quick little judgment went through my whole entire chemistry of my body and literally was like, boom, now you have to pee instantly.

And I was just, whoa.

And that's like my warning sign to, like,

Tame it down.

You just went from 0 to 100 that fast.

And I.

In my brain,

I didn't think I was doing that,

but my body told me otherwise.

Yeah.

And here's the thing that

I think is,

like,

now that

I know this is so important,

I'm like,

oh,

anyone who needs to hear this,

just take this to heart.

Because you catch those things.

Like you said,

Kim,

you know,

you caught it,

you saw it.

And we can change our mind

and our emotions,

our attitude,

our judgment,

we can change that all very,

very,

very quickly.

Like,

changing and adjusting our mind

and our thoughts,

our judgments

is possible

and way easier to do than changing our bodies when we've stored those reactions over and over and over and over and over again in our bodies.

That's not easy to change.

Yep.

And that's what

I,

like,

didn't

I.

For the longest time,

just,

like,

I don't know if

I believed or what it was.

It doesn't matter.

But it was like,

I didn't give enough,

like,

wait to how powerful it is to.

Like you said in that moment,

Kim,

you got your warning sign

and you decided to change course right then.

That course correction,

like,

even reel in all those chemicals that

I just sent out into my body.

I know it's going to take a little bit because

I already sent them out.

Yep.

But still,

I'm going to reel them in.

And then also the commitment to,

you know,

nip that stuff in the bud sooner throughout today.

Yep.

Yep.

So.

Whoa.

Okay.

Now,

if you catch yourself in those moments where somebody says something

and your.

Your mind will instantly go to an opinion or you want to say.

You want to tell somebody how to fix something.

Okay.

They're telling you a problem.

They're telling you something that's going on,

and you're like,

man,

I have the right answer.

And you're.

And you're just like,

blah,

blah,

blah.

And you're trying.

You don't mean it,

because it's coming across from you as compassion and love towards that person.

But the other person might be like,

whoa,

I wasn't asking for your opinion.

I wasn't asking for that.

Like,

and you just dumped that on.

And then all of a sudden,

you're like,

well,

thought you wanted omega.

I thought you wanted opinion.

I thought you wanted to be healed.

And that's these little thoughts that go through our head.

It's not like you're saying it out loud to another person saying,

well,

I thought you wanted to be healed.

But in your head,

if you start,

like,

going in there

and thinking

that or even the slightest hint of thinking,

well,

they're not going to do what

I told them to do anyways.

Or

I don't understand why they're not going to do what

I told them.

Like,

this stuff works.

That is a judgment.

That is an opinion.

That right there,

we need to change that.

We need to realize that our.

Our thoughts

that we think are so.

Have it all figured out

that they're so important

that they're just not.

What they are is they're our thoughts.

So here's an exact example,

Kim.

If you come to me

and say,
here's the direction I'm going to go with something with my bladder,
and I'm like,
well,
wait,
what,
Kim?
Like,
I,
you know,
something in me that's like,
that is not the right route for you.
Like,
instant judgment thought,
blah,
blah,
blah.
And
I want to share it with you.
Say,
hey,
Kim,
don't do that.
What?
And
what
I really need to do
is just give you the space
and the respect for you,
where
you are with it.
Go.
Okay.
It's really hard
to do.
I mean,
it sounds so easy
to do.
It's the reason why
it's actually.
It's not hard
to do.
It's just we're so out of practice of it.
We have.
It's.
It's hard in the sense that we're so well practiced.
We're like masters at instantaneously fixing a problem,
giving our opinion,
casting judgment.
We're so fast at that.
That Just slowing down and,
like,
reeling ourselves in.
Mm.
It's not that it's hard.
It's just gonna take a little practice.

Yeah.

Okay.

That person.

Well,
obviously with your cat,
you can't really have a great conversation,
but if it's to another person
and they're saying,
like,
say,
I had to go pee
and Jill,
you're like,
man,
I know that's not the right thing for you,
Kim,
but you're gonna hold it back.

Okay.

What
I would suggest Jill
to do is say,
hey,
like,
wow,
well,
how do you feel about that?
Does that.
That feel right
to you?
Or
do you think that.
Do you think something's missing?
Or what do you feel with that?
Or what do you think with that?

Oh,
okay.

And if they're like,
well,
I know that's what
I need then.

Then
you have to let it be.

There's a reason.

There's a.

Yep.

I was gonna say
you could just instantly go
to let it be

like

oh

I know.

Okay.

Okay.

And it's like keeping

that judgment of yours

of mine

out of it

like

just really going

okay

Kim's.

It's her choice.

It's her life.

It's her decision.

If you need anything

let me know.

Otherwise

I just gotta let you be.

Oh,

I got a lot

to learn about this one.

Oh,

don't we all?

Oh,

my goodness.

It's so fast,

the chemical reactions,

though.

Yeah.

And we gotta do this.

We gotta slow this chemical reaction down.

It's just causing physical things

that are just getting too big for us.

We gotta slow this chemical factory down.

We've mentioned this before.

Body we have is like the number one chemical creation factory on earth.

It creates more chemicals.

It's amazing.

And we're unfortunately triggering some really unhelpful chemicals.

Yes.

Nip it in the bud.

And just

like

I said.

Okay

I see

I did

that.

All right

you know

what?

I'm going

to change gears.

That's

the mind stuff

the emotions.

I'm going

to turn

the volume down

on this pissed offness.

I get it.

I was went

to pissed off

right away.

I'm just going

to turn

that down.

I'm going

to go another direction.

And

the more

and more

we do

that,

the faster

and faster

we'll be able

to be in the moment with those not have to,

like,

do the repair.

Someone needed

to hear something

about

this.

It's

just

like.

I

know

I

did.

Yes.

This

is

not

where

we

thought

we were going

with

this message.

Nope.

I don't know.

Well,

thank you Jill.

Thank you everyone.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Thank you Kim.

Thank you everyone for listening.

Have fun with this today as much as you can.

You know these chemical factories are powerful.

Yep.

Laughter helps.

Laughter helps a lot.

To break it up.

Yes.

Yes.

All right until next time
