It’s my story like you’ve never heard it before. In this deeply personal episode, I pull back the curtain on the struggles that have shaped me—not just as an entrepreneur but as a human. From a $40,000 business loss to navigating health crises and burnout, I share how the hardest moments of my life ultimately became my greatest teachers.

You’ll hear how understanding my Human Design—specifically the channel of struggle and crisis—helped me reframe these experiences as tools for growth rather than signs of failure. This isn’t just a story of survival—it’s a story of transformation, resilience, and alignment. If you’ve ever wondered how to move through your own challenges and create a life and business that feel deeply aligned, this episode is for you.

What you’ll receive in this episode

  1. Struggle as a Catalyst for Growth:
    Learn how the challenges you face can refine, rather than define, you—and why reframing struggle can change your entire perspective.

  2. Failures Aren’t the End:
    Hear how a $40,000 business mistake became the foundation for greater emotional resilience and clarity on what truly matters in business.

  3. Embracing Crisis in Human Design:
    Discover how the channel of struggle and crisis shaped Jessica’s journey—and how it might be influencing yours, too.

  4. Your Business Can’t Outgrow Your Beliefs:
    Understand why healing your inner blocks and aligning with your energy is essential to creating lasting success in your business.

  5. The Power of Choosing Your Struggles:
    Explore why some challenges are worth embracing, and how to decide what’s truly worth your energy.

This episode is an invitation to see your story differently. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by failure or stuck in cycles of doubt, I truly hope that my raw, honest journey will give you permission to rewrite the narrative.

Turning Struggles Into Strength: Your Mentor for Aligned Success

6/3 Mani-Gen | Visionary | Personal Development Obsessed

In 2017, I hit rock bottom. Overworking, unresolved trauma, and self-doubt left me battling anxiety, burnout, and panic attacks daily. Through emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and aligned growth, I rebuilt myself and my business.

Now, as a mentor and alternative therapist with 17+ years of Entrepreneurial experience, I help soul-led women like you:

  • Release emotional and energetic blocks holding you back.

  • Build unshakable confidence and emotional resilience.

  • Create spacious, aligned success that feels deeply fulfilling.

What My Clients Are Saying About Their Transformations.

This experience was far and beyond what I could have expected.

Jess helped my overcome so many personal blocks and experiences triggering anxiety.

Best decision I’ve ever made and I highly recommend Jess. I wish I would have done it sooner.

Kamri H | Entreprenuer

Working with Jess, helped me to peel back so many layers and get to the origin of some of my long held subconscious thoughts and beliefs. Our sessions were powerful, healing and nurturing. Jess had a beautiful way of holding space and getting to the heart and origin of my stories. I can see now how these thoughts and beliefs have held me back in so many ways.

Jo C | Coach and Mentor

Jessica was incredible.

I've searched over the years for someone who could help remove certain blocks and triggers with no success.

In our first session Jess got the root of the subconscious issue so we could begin working on it - freeing me up to show up as the woman I want to in both life AND business.
