I feel I was tricked
I feel forgotten
I feel down
Before I begotten

It's time
I break through this wall
It's time
I break through this call

I've been waiting
For a long time
To take this dream
And make it come alive

Break the silence
Chase this dream
Rise, rebuild
And break free

Break the silence
Chase this dream
Rise, rebuild
And break free

You will always
Be by myside
When I break
Through the noise

Break through this sound
Break through my choice
To love
To feel
To be real

The barrier
That kept me
Locked inside
Is what made me
Feel old

Break the silence
Chase this dream
Rise, rebuild
And break free

Break the silence
Chase this dream
Rise, rebuild
And break free

The barrier
That kept me
Locked inside
Is what made me
Feel cold

Break the silence
Chase this dream
Rise, rebuild
And break free

Break the silence
Chase this dream
Rise, rebuild
And break free

Break the Silence

A Daily Reset for Inner Peace with Jenny Garufi

In this empowering episode of Big Blend Radio’s SUPERVISION MATTERS Podcast, organizational coach and author Rita Sever (Supervision Matters & Leading for Justice) shares practical, sustainable self-care strategies for leaders, supervisors, employers, and employees alike.

In today’s demanding work environments, self-care isn’t optional—it’s essential. Rita discusses how daily routines, supportive systems, healthy boundaries, and positive self-talk can reduce stress, strengthen resilience, and improve workplace culture. She also explains how leaders who model healthy habits create more productive, engaged, and balanced teams.

In recognition of National Leadership Day, this conversation is a timely reminder that modeling healthy habits is part of great leadership.

Building a Self-Care Routine That Actually Works at Work

Thinking about switching it up?
Before you book somewhere new, this episode is worth a listen.

After the recent closure of a major lash chain in North Jersey, we’ve been getting call after call from women asking the same question:
Where do I go now?

But this conversation isn’t just about finding a new place.

It’s about understanding the difference between fast beauty and thoughtful beauty.
Between transactional service and relationship-based care.
Between speed… and trust.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why faster doesn’t always mean better

What actually protects the health of your natural lashes

Why trust with your artist changes everything

How to know if you want customization or convenience

The quiet cultural shift toward lighter, more personalized lashes

And how to tell your artist when you’re ready for a change

Lashes are still a luxury — but they should make your life easier, not busier.

If you’re reconsidering your lash routine, this episode will help you choose with clarity instead of urgency.

1. Pilot Episode

Welcome to the We Do Not Care Club: where the bras are optional, the chin hairs are thriving, and the menopause meltdown is mutual. 

 Do you wake up with night sweats at 3:26 am, overstimulated, furious at anything breathing (including yourself), wondering how you’re going to get through the next day without losing it at your kids/partner/co-workers?

If you wish everyone would leave you alone, no longer care about bras that fit, clothes with buttons (elastic forever, baby), or cellulite anywhere then welcome to the We Do Not Care (WDNC) Club. You're now a card-carrying member with an exclusive invite to the biggest hormonal party in town.

This Club is for anyone in perimenopause and menopause who are over it. Here is a list of things We Do Not Care about:

• Shaved legs.
• Half-painted big toenails.
• Unplucked chin hair.
• Wearing the same bra all week. Or wearing bras – full stop.
• Wearing PJs all day. At least we have something on.
• Being on time. Be happy that I showed up.
• People who think we have a sh*tty attitude. That's on them.
• Cancelled plans. We didn't want to go anywhere anyway.
• What's for dinner. If you're hungry, do something about it yourself.
• If you're cold – don't even think about touching the air conditioning.

Melani Sanders, Founding Member of the We Do Not Care Club, is here to tell you that it's ok – in fact welcomed – not to care. You're not alone. We are all in the same boat, just out here trying to survive.

This book is your life raft, girls. Let's hold on for dear life – and get through this together.

The Official We Do Not Care Club Handbook: A Guide for Women in Perimenopause and Menopause Who Are Over It, By Melani Sanders, Read by Melani Sanders

Music is more powerful than we often realize. Sometimes it can feel like medicine. Other times it simply helps us enjoy life a little more.

If you’re here listening, welcome.

I’m not chasing fame or recognition. I simply love writing songs.

If these songs bring you a moment of peace, reflection, or enjoyment, then they’ve done their job.

Special thanks to the supporters who believe in the music and help keep it alive. I see you and I thank you.
