How do we shift our focus from beating ourselves up, blaming and shaming and replaying… to accepting and clarifying what does light our spirit up? What are ways to rebuild hope in an unknown chapter?  This conversation is empowering, uplifting, intimate, and vulnerable on both of our parts.Jessica is one of the most talented executive coaches I have ever had the pleasure of working with in the past decade.She taught me tools yeeaarrrss ago that I continue to use daily to create the reality my heart and body desire for me to build.My hope is that you or someone you love who may be going through a tough time of self-examination or loss may find a vein of courage and strength from this tender conversation.
