HEARTFELT Conversations with JAX
Hi - My name is Jax
Not only am I a qualified professional therapist, Life coach and Feminine Life Strategist but I have fought and overcome mental health concerns my whole life.
VENI CECIDI VICI
- I CAME | I FELL | I CONQUERED
My objective is to provide light when it seems dark. I want to
EDUCATE you on :
WHAT mental disorders exist (and explain Mental health disorders VS Mental health concerns/issues)
WHY they have taken charge of ones life.
HOW to identify or diagnose them and
WHEN & WHERE to find help
This podcast includes testimonies, interviews, HOW-TO guides, general and professional discussions covering everything to do with improved mental wellness.
And if you may think we include episodes that are irrelevant, please know that each topic and each episode has been carefully though out and planned to satisfy the objectives set out above.
IMPORTANT To Note : a HEALTHY MIND and a HEALTHY BODY can not function on their own.
They both need to be seen as functioning parts of a whole.

ABOUT ME
I have three children with my husband I married in 2001 and we live in a full, vibrant household. There are actually four generations currently living within our walls! I am fiercely passionate about family, particularly, supporting, loving and nurturing each family member on their respective journeys. It can seem all consuming to some, and certainly not everyone feels like I do. I am fully aware that each of us is called to walk a path in different and unique ways. This is something I choose to celebrate and encourage.
I started Unfilter that Lens after receiving a word form the Lord that I was destined to help others battling through mental health disorders - most specifically your adults.
I am a qualified Empathic Listener...I am available to simply hear and acknowledge YOU...not judgement or condemnation. I simply want you to be the....
BEST YOU POSSIBLE

This episode takes a slightly different but (I believe) essential theme.
Joining me in this episode is Dr Michael Mol
- keynote speaker, health strategist, wellness researcher
Michael is unpacking the science behind mental health and ‘happiness as a health habit. He’ll be taking us deep into how you can hack your happiness with science-backed, habit-powered tools to train your brain - and your body - for performance, resilience, and joy.
Doc Mol provides a number of mental health gems that will help the listener get proactive in their pursuit for Mental health Wellness in a sustainable manner.
I know you will find this and the next episode both informative and (possibly even...) life changing.

After Tayden opened his heart to us in the previous episode—letting us into the private corners of his life, his trauma, and the anxiety he has carried as a transgender male—we turn now to his twin sister.
This is an edited conversation I had with her two years ago, in 2024, and her story is one that still shakes me every time I revisit it.
Loren… from the moment she could walk, she filled every room with an excitable and contagious energy...light and positive. An extroverted, spirited, unstoppable child. And then high school happened.
The emotional bullying she endured carved wounds far deeper than any of us realized. Those wounds led her into heartbreaking circumstances—some from poor decisions she bravely owns today, others from the cruel luck no child should ever face. She survived sexual abuse as a young teen, fought her way through self‑harm, suicidal thoughts, substance use, and terrifying panic attacks.
As parents, we saw her slipping, and we tried so hard to reach her—but so much of the battle was invisible, happening inside her. And in the chaos of everything she couldn’t control, she held on to the one thing she thought she could control : her eating.
What started as a coping mechanism became a relentless eating disorder that consumed her strength and our hearts. At this time, she was also diagnosed with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder)
Loren, you are a warrior. You have been to the darkest places and still, somehow, you offer the world the kindest heart imaginable. You will move mountains. You already have.
Mom and Dad love you more than words will ever say.

We’re diving deeper into the mental‑wellness challenges many of us face.
In this episode, I talk with my son Tayden.
Unlike his twin sister Loren—who you’ll hear from next episode—his anxiety was harder to notice and even harder for him to express - as he’s a naturally reserved person.
Spoiler alert: Around 15 minutes into this 2024 recording, he shares a MAJOR PERSONAL SECRET that is the most life-changing event he will (hopefully) ever confront.
I admire this child deeply. He inspires me, and I believe he’ll change many lives.
Tayden...you are extraordinary. Your courage, your softness, your honesty—you teach us every day how powerful and uplifting true authenticity can be.
As your parents, we love you with everything we have.

HEARTFELT THERAPY
''Everyone has VALUE... but most are unable to understand where their value lies. I take a more holistic approach to therapy and coaching, focusing on the whole person encompassing their physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing.
I offer you an opportunity to talk freely and be heard without any judgement.
Together we will find your VALUE as I simply listen and guide you on your path of recovery.''
WHO ARE WE ?
At UNFILTER THAT LENS ,we are committed to facilitating and assisting the journey of healing from traumatic events and mental health crisis.
As the mythical Phoenix represents hope, courage and perseverance while rising from the ashes of it's combustion, we are passionate about supporting all those who have been affected by their mental health and seek healing from the past.
The Allegory of the Phoenix
To the naked eye, the Phoenix represents pure beauty. But this aesthetic beauty is somewhat contradicted by the birds destruction by combustion for seemingly no reason at all. Having completed its destruction, this extraordinary COUNSELOR OF HOPE is effortlessly transformed into an admirable SYMBOL of encouragement.
The Phoenix not only rises from the ashes of its complete dismantling, it continues with a proverbial clean slate upon the presentation of a new beginning.
As we delve deeper, we learn that beauty, being merely 'skin deep', is certainly a damaging/destructive literal interpretation of what a living being feels internally - in their soul. As human beings, for the most part, we use our eyes and ears to form an impression about anything new that we encounter n front of us, relying instinctively on these two of our five senses.
The truth is that YOU DO have the ability rise from the ashes of unbearable hurt and pain. Every one of us has the innate ability to reset and start from scratch. It is not easy and it differs from one to the next. While I am not qualified to offer advice, I do know that the ability to change is within you. Everyday you have an opportunity to start with a clean slate - like a reborn Phoenix - equipped to improve your life as well as the lives of those around you.
