There’s a fear many high-achieving, soul-led women carry - but rarely name.

Not the fear of failure.
The fear of what success will cost.

Because stepping into your next level often means outgrowing people, patterns, and identities that once made you feel safe.
And that kind of expansion? It doesn’t just bring possibility. It brings grief.

In this episode, we explore the invisible emotional edge behind your stuckness - and what it really means to outgrow versions of yourself that were never meant to hold your next chapter.

Inside, we’ll walk through:

  • The neuroscience behind identity conflict and success resistance

  • Why your nervous system may associate struggle with belonging

  • What to do when rising means losing connection - and how to lead through it with integrity

  • How to stop sabotaging your success to stay safe in old roles and dynamics

This episode is for the woman who is ready for more - but finds herself hesitating, circling, or quietly shrinking to stay connected.

Because deep down, you already know - it's not about being ready.
It's about feeling safe.

Reflection prompts:

  • What parts of me are afraid of being too big, too visible, or too different?

  • Who or what might I lose if I fully step into the life I desire?

  • Am I leading from expansion - or managing other people’s comfort?

Listen now to uncover the unseen blocks between where you are and who you're becoming.

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.
