Exploring the Seasons of Life, Work, Creativity, and Purpose with Jessica Smith
Career Coaching with Jessness

Career Coaching with Jessness isn’t just about your career. It’s about the seasons of life, work, creativity, and purpose. Our career isn’t only what pays the bills. It’s the larger story of growth and personal evolution. It can reflect our side hustles, passion projects, and the many roles we play: mentor, creator, parent, partner, friend, volunteer, dreamer. All of which shape who we are. I truly believe our career is a mirror. What shows up there is often a manifesto of how we approach life, who we are, why we do what we do, and what makes us feel alive and fulfilled. -------------------- Jessica is an author, speaker, and creative living in California. She wrote the books *YOUR TWENTIES* (published February 2018) and *Thank You for Dumping Me* (published July 2024). Both books are available in print, kindle, and audio.

    My Five-Year Winter: How a Blindsided Breakup and Stormy Nights Led to My Second Book

    In this 4-part mini-series we will dive into how nature’s seasons mirror our own personal growth. In this first episode featuring Winter, I draw from my own years of navigating a five-year long ‘personal winter’ that I thought would never end. From a life-altering breakup to deep self-discovery and healing—I explore how the harsh, cold moments often push us to assess, reframe, and make space for new growth. Just like nature, we all experience seasons in life. Some quiet, some turbulent, but all with purpose. When we open ourselves to explore them, we uncover lessons that shape who we are. Join me as I dive into a journey of transformation, resilience, and the powerful wisdom nature has to offer. At the end of each episode, I share a self-discovery prompt from my second book, *Thank You for Dumping Me*.

It’s raw and real, with witty humor and a lot of heart! Readers have described Thank You for Dumping Me as a genre of its own—memoir-meets-novel—and a book they “couldn’t put down,” a “real page-turner.” I am on a mission to rebrand breakups from something to be feared, dreaded, and full of sorrow to opportunities for growth, self-discovery, and life course redirects.
