Jewels, Joy & Jumping Off the Hustle Hamster Wheel with Jenny Stilley

Hey hey, welcome back to The Embodied Baddie Podcast! I’m your host, Chrystal Rose—coach, burnout survivor, and your go-to girl for slaying stress and creating a life that actually feels as good as it looks.

And oof, you’re in for a juicy one today. I’m joined by the fabulous Jenny Stilley—yes, that Jenny, the genius behind BohoBlu Boutique, My Girl in LA and now the stunning jewelry line PRESSIE. We’re talking success, health, and how to stop running your biz like it’s a sprint when life is clearly a damn marathon.

In This Episode, We Chat About…

💫 Big Shifts

Jenny went from six retail locations and a booming wholesale jewelry biz to pivoting into something that lights her up—and allows her to focus on what’s most important. 

💫 When Your Body Throws a Flag on the Play

Let’s be real: what’s the point of all the money if your body is falling apart? Jenny opens up about how chasing success wrecked her health—and how she learned to stop ignoring the whispers before they became full-blown screams.

💫 Self-Care That’s More Than a Bubble Bath

We’re not here for the “treat yourself” self-care that’s just a band-aid. Jenny shares how she built wellness into her routine like it’s non-negotiable—because it is.

💫 Success Isn’t a Destination, Babe

Jenny gets real about how her definition of success has totally evolved—and why yours probably needs to, too. (Spoiler: it’s less about the grind and more about what feels good.)

💫 Gifting, But Make It Deeply Thoughtful

Her newest baby? Pressie, a gifting concept that’s all about connection and meaning, not just slapping a bow on something cute. We’re talkin’ heirloom vibes with heart.

Baddie Takeaways:

  • Your body is not a machine. Listen to it.

  • Stop saving self-care for when you're already crispy.

  • Reevaluate your definition of “making it.”

  • Pour into your people—connection is currency.

This convo is pure soul fuel for every ambitious woman who’s felt the burnout creeping in or questioned if it’s worth it. (Hint: not if it costs your joy.)
