The Becoming You Project
The Becoming You Project is a podcast about the process of becoming — about remembering who you are beneath centuries of disconnection, conditioning, and inherited ways of living that were never designed to keep us whole.
Many of us feel it: a quiet sense of misalignment, restlessness, or numbness. Not because something is wrong with us — but because we’re living inside systems and stories that have slowly pulled us away from our bodies, our intuition, our rhythms, and our deeper sense of purpose. This disconnect didn’t happen overnight. It’s been centuries in the making. And right now, we’re living in the tension of that unraveling.
This podcast exists for those who can feel that we’re in the midst of a collective awakening — a paradigm shift where the old ways of operating no longer work, and something more honest, embodied, and humane is asking to be born.
Hosted by Jess Callahan — entrepreneur, purpose alchemist, subconscious guide, and post-graduate student of transpersonal psychology — The Becoming You Project blends psychology, spirituality, and consciousness to explore what it means to come back into relationship with yourself in a world that has taught us to live disconnected.
At its core, this work is rooted in one belief: True transformation happens when the body feels safe, the mind is clear, and the soul is awake.
Becoming yourself isn’t a single moment or destination. It’s a process — one that asks us to understand all the ways we’ve been shaped away from our truth, and to gently return to what’s real. In this space, deeper purpose is explored as a five-part unfolding:
• Nervous system regulation
• Deconditioning the mind
• Reconnecting with intuition
• Self-discovery
• Cycles of integration and embodiment
Through intimate conversations and reflective solo episodes, Jess weaves together somatic awareness, nervous system healing, astrology, intuitive reconnection, and soul-level work to support this journey from the inside out. Because individual healing is never just individual. When we reconnect with ourselves — when we regulate, remember, and live with greater awareness — our healing creates ripples. It changes how we relate, how we lead, how we create, and how we show up in the world.
And that kind of change is something our world is deeply asking for right now.
Each episode is an invitation to slow down, listen inward, and participate consciously in your own becoming — not as an act of self-improvement, but as an act of remembrance.

03. Finding Your Voice in a World that Silences | w/ Urmi Hossain
What happens when women don't speak up? We miss opportunities, fail to advance professionally, and inadvertently set a limiting example for others who look to us as role models. In this illuminating conversation with Urmi Hossain, a finance professional, author, and women's empowerment advocate, we dive deep into the transformative power of finding your voice.
Urmi shares her journey of balancing a successful career in finance with her passion for empowering women through mentorship, writing, and advocacy. Drawing from the Japanese concept of ikigai (a reason for being), she reveals how she connected her professional skills with her desire to serve her community, ultimately creating a more purposeful life.
One of the most powerful insights from our conversation is Urmi's relationship with discomfort and fear. Rather than avoiding what scares her, she intentionally moves toward it, viewing fear as a friend guiding her toward growth. From conquering her fear of public speaking to embracing new challenges like creating YouTube content, Urmi demonstrates how leaning into discomfort leads to personal transformation.
We also explore practical strategies for maintaining balance while pursuing multiple passions, and her philosophy of trying new experiences to discover what truly resonates offers a refreshing perspective on finding your path.
