Failure

2/3/2023

Failure is a part of being great.

Failure is a part of your life being good!...even amazing!

I hate failure, I hate feeling like a failure, and failed dreams are especially painful. I know you feel the same <3
But when I listen to my friends, or anybody else and they are sharing their pain about their perceived failure, I know they are working through a great lesson that will help them get to that next level that they are wanting, or helping to create their "amazing life."

The quote "Einstein failed a million times before he created electricity, and then he was a genius" stands out. But it doesn't really click when you personally are going thought the pain and tears of feeling like you failed.

I can tell you that when I am in the middle of a failed dream... Oh my god, it hurts so much.  Its consuming.  Its hard to see the positive in anything,  Its hard to stop crying and go on with the day.  So I get you!  But thank god I have done enough work, that my logical brain kicks in and reminds me of times it turned around, or famous people that I admire that failed and then were huge successes.  Doesn't mean my emotional brain accepts it, but there is a shred of light <3  

Guess what?! Failure actually means you are on your way to that dream, to being great.

IF, giant IF, you have the courage to feel the pain. It doesn't have to be long, you don't have to wallow in it, but you do have to be willing to feel the depth of the sting. This is the universe working its magic to remove something in you, or make you into what you are dreaming of being, dreaming of living.

Find your right support that can witness you as you go through your failure an d you will get through it even faster, you will accelerate the shedding, and living what your heart dreams of.

I hope this shred of light gives you strength, that this re-frame gave you a big boost. You can do it, it will happen. Its ok if you feel like a failure, it's just a stepping stone. Don't let yourself get stuck in believing that its permanent, even though it might feel like it.

Build your support team, set up a free call.  I am this support for my clients, and I love it.

Its a new year... for new goals!

1/1/2023

0 Comments

 
What are your top 3 goals for this year?...
​THAT you are COMMITTED to putting effort toward every day even when (if) you feel frustrated by the progress?

It's awesome to dream, and have goals. But sometimes we get discouraged with how hard it actually is to move forward in our biggest wishes.
Daily life demands get in the way...
Social obligations and commitments get in the way...

Dream big for your goals. Yes, this is very important.

The next step might be more important.
Given what you have going on in your life, what daily actions can you commit to?

Don't change your goals to make it more "realistic" that is cheapening your deep desires - that you 100% deserve. Instead make the baby steps work for you.

When is the best time of day to dedicate time for your effort?

How can you include your friends, family, or community in your goals? People LOVE to help others achieve a dream.

What daily habits could you modify that would support the achievement of your goals?

Next Series: Calm in the Eye...

8/16/2022

0 Comments

 
Are you ready to handle difficult situations with calm and ease?
Would you love to feel less of the tornado?
Is it possible that just by being different you could just have less issues?

Sounds impossible right? But it's not :) It's possible for you too :)

I was a flight attendant full time and a preschool teacher part time while I was getting this certification to be qualified to teach it. Amazing things happened.
Both jobs can be a lot. Lol, and I was doing one of them everyday. I lived in chaos.
People think kids are so cute; and they are!!!!  But how about when one is telling you "you look like a witch", another is saying they hate you and want you to go away, two other kids are fighting, and starting to hit each other, another kid is peeing his pants, and one more kid is whining and crying that they want you to come play with them... All at the same time, and the other teachers in the room are also occupied.

Kids are super cute, and fun! But the amount of chaos that often happens is very overwhelming to many.

When I began this Presence work, and practiced what I learned every day. It just got better. That is the best way to describe it. I felt peace and joy. The fighting kids stopped fighting when I walked in the room, the kid crying for my attention would decide to draw me a picture instead, until I was able to go sit with them. The kid peeing their pants, would ask for help before it happened. The kids that would tell me I looked like a witch because of my moles, just stopped. The ones that would tell me they hated me, just stopped. Either they found something else to do, or became the sweet nice child.

It was not overnight, but recognizing that I just didn't experience the same issues was amazing.
It truly felt like I was in the peaceful center of a tornado.
I could see there were issues but they just didn't happen to me, or even come close to me.


Same thing for when I was a flight attendant. I just didn't have the same kinds of issues that my flight attendant friends would talk about; Medicals, having to divert, very difficult passengers, being re-routed to very crappy destinations... Instead what I began to experience was: more and more amazing connections with guests or crew, either amazing conversations or very enjoyable flirtations that made my flight feel like 10 minutes, barely any medicals, no diversions, sometimes my flights would get canceled that would make for an even better layover…

One of my favorite moments while working on the plane:  the three of us flight attendants were talking in the back.  We were in the phase of the flight that was the down time opportunity.  There was a cute pilot commuting, he came to the back to chat, as was normal among crew members (we loved chatting with each other).  I was just listening. Then I remembered this is a perfect time to practice.  So I began to consciously do one of the practices, and instantly he turned and only faced me, and inched closer, the rest of the conversation!  To the point that it got a little uncomfortable, hahahaha!  I laugh because the practice worked instantly and so strongly!  This was not a normal thing for me, for the cute guy to pay way more attention to me, than the other people in the group.

The issues just didn’t happen to me.  I knew why.  I loved it, and that strengthened my commitment.  Other people would just say they had bad luck, and that I had good luck.  But those people are cutting off their own power and ability to grow by saying that.  

I don't know how better to describe it than it just got better... And it was better every time I was consciously doing the practices.

Come learn a better way :)

Try a taste of what could happen for you; now with more dates to pick!

The Truth is... You are a Money Magnet

7/13/2022

0 Comments

 
Another series of Magic of Presence has been completed and some amazing manifestations have occurred for everyone in the class including me! <3

The next series' theme is titled Money Magnet.  I am very excited for all of us to attract, increase and/or generate more money in our lives!

Money is actually where my coaching journey began <3  Or even younger... As a child I made up this system of percentages that I applied to my life for the next +15 years.  Later,  MUCH later, I learned that Dave Ramsey had created this system.  But I am still proud of my 12 year old self for rejecting conventional thinking, and being so determined to find a way that I created a system that truly worked for me and everyone that I taught it to.  In telling this story to my coach, she recommended me to look into Money Coaching.  I looked into the program, and less than a week later I was beginning the first class.  On day 1... I was in heaven <3 

It was this ecstatic relief sensation that I knew I was exactly in the right spot.  This is what I was meant to do.  I was good at it, and loved studying.

I had been on the committed personal growth path for a while by the time I got my first certification.  I saw the huge benefits in my own life, but also the positive influence that was happening on the people around me.  I was addicted!  When I first started out, I was especially excited about becoming a Certified Money Coach because I figured, everyone wants more money, so that will attract people to doing the work, and make the world a better place, one person at a time <3

I have since expanded my Coaching Certificates, and eventually will add more certifications to the list; as well as my tools continue to grow.  

Now what I am most passionate about is helping you to win; helping you to transform your life into something that you are in love with.  To some people that will mean more money.  To some people that will mean better relationships with their friends and family, or having a group of friends that you actually feel great to be together, the relationship of your dreams, the career of your dreams, fame, thriving vitality... We are all so unique to our dreams and desires.

But having a bit more money will help you to achieve whatever dream you have ;)  And learning a new way of being to attract, create or generate that abundance, prosperity, or money is exciting, but more importantly it is transformative.  This work is exciting, and fun.

SO, what is your vision of prosperity?
I encourage you to really feel into that, journal about it.

I know there is a lot of chaos going on in the world, but this work changes things.  It changes your experience of life.

Join me for this next series, where we are going to help each other increase, attract or create the prosperity we desire by learning how to be a money magnet!  While I cannot make any promises, I 100% expect everyone to increase each their income, because I know this stuff works.  And I know how to modify the practices so that it will click for you.

You are worth it.
Hope to see you in the upcoming FREE class on Monday July 25th.  You have nothing to lose in trying out this work before deciding if you want more.  And you have everything to gain.

Final question: 
What is it costing you to do exactly what you have been doing?

Good Bye Sugar,                                                                                          Hello Health, Productivity and Savings!

6/27/2022

Lots of us know we should reduce or even eliminate our sugar intake... so.... why don't we?

 Sugar and sweets are so incredibly addictive, and SO  common place.  Our society includes sugar loaded foods in all of our holidays, and its always the center of any get together.  Its so common place that a lot of people don't even know the food they are choosing has sugar in it!

I challenge you to eliminate sugar out of your life for at least 3 months, and you will be amazed at the progress that happens within your life!

I know how painful cutting out sugar can be.  For that reason I personally believe its better to do it over a period of time, for example three months, and to really focus on what you are increasing or replacing.  I do have a systematic approach to making these kind of diet changes.  That I am happy to share with you over a free Chat.

But if you do not want to work with me, there are tons of other people and resources.  Of course you can do it on your own, but with sugar, its much harder.

My journey:
I had massive gut issues, that were really a giant problem.  It really got in the way of me living, and even working.  It was pretty obvious to me that I could not tolerate sugar, as I would through up from even one bite of sugar, so that made me not want it.  BUT my body still craved it, for over a month, I still wanted sugar, and I considered myself a person that didn't eat sugar...

Except for the 5 spoons I added to my coffee every day,
oh year, and the chocolate when I went to the store,
and when I hung out with friends, I would indulge in the treat,
and the occasional juice that I really liked...

But I didn't eat sugar, haha!

I see this all the time!  Someone will tell me they don't eat sugar as they are drinking a diet coke, and if they caught my weird look at them, they would tell me there is no sugar in diet coke its aspartame, or stevia...  But its not their fault, there is intentional deceptive advertising, and the truth is often hard to find.  But it is there if you look.

Anything sweet flavor has sugar in it.

​This includes fruits, and everything packaged.  All packaged products have sugar in them.  Sugar also serves as a preservative.

Once I did truly eliminate sugar from my life, I noticed some really awesome side effects!

I saved money while grocery shopping.
Less decision fatigue while shopping!
My skin got way better -  things that I just though were a part of how I am.
My gut issues improved significantly.
It was fairly easy to intermittent fast, which saved me time and money.
Its easier to be present, and go deeper in emotional work.
I became more in tune with my body - when I craved sugar, then I knew it was time to eat, rather that feeding the craving.
Lots of other benefits

​The only way to learn truly how powerful eliminating sugar will be for you is to try it out!

Goals accomplished... by accident!

6/17/2022

0 Comments

 
Do you have some goals that just feel out of reach? Or illogical? Or maybe don't even make sense how they will happen?

I know sometimes the thing we may want makes no sense.  Maybe it seems so out of reach that "why even torture yourself by dreaming?"

But when we allow ourselves to want what we truly want, things around us conspire to make it happen.  And sometimes the dream wants you.  Sometimes the dream choose you; to want it.  The first time I understood this concept was while reading "Elisabeth Gilbert's Big Magic".  And then I began to recognize all the points in my life where it was true, and how it did and does happen for me now.  Sometimes the dream chooses you.  I know its a funny concept to take in :)

I am a big believer in having many goals/dreams.  I think its a powerful thing, to be clear on your direction.  And sometimes life throws you curve balls, and that is exactly where having many goals in different areas of your life comes into play.  This way you always have control that you can move forward in at least one area of your life.

This week I have been hurt, and so in trying to honor my body and give it the rest that it wants and needs, I am doing my best to do nothing.  Its a challenge. 
This morning I was doing my journaling process and reading my goals out loud.  And then I realized! Oh my god! I achieved one of them!  It was actually because of being hurt that I achieved one of my goals.  BECAUSE of a curve ball that I would never have consciously chosen.

This is a wonderful example to everyone, and a big reminder to me, that doing less will still get you to where you want to go. 
SO please do dream big,
review your goals often, do what you can each day,
and somehow you will get there. 
Sometimes the curveballs, will even be the blessing you were wishing for ;)

Sending you love,
​Jessica

Manifesting!..... From a Bad Mood

5/23/2022

0 Comments

 
Did you know that its possible to manifest your desires no matter what mood you are it?

Yep!  You do not have to be is a great feeling state to attract your desires.  Although typically people are more accepting of receiving even more good things when they are already feeling great.  Don't limit yourself by believing it has to be that way.

I actually manifest a ton from a bad mood.  Because when I am in those places, of hopeless heart break, of feeling so angry people actually run away from me... I have no resistance.  I am so absorbed in the bad feeling that the next day or two the very biggest thing I had been wanting, shows up.  Just like that.  Its amazing!

Check out my article Dreams Come True.

So I encourage you to submit and completely feel however you are feeling.  Of course if you are feeling an intense emotion like rage, grief, or depression, please take the necessary steps to have loving support so that you do not harm yourself or anyone else, or cause more damage that might be difficult to repair later.  If this is you please set up a free chat, and we can create an action plan for you.

When you submit and allow yourself to completely feel the feeling something magical happens, some kind of integration or release happens, its amazing.  I want this for you too! Although it does take a lot of courage to completely feel grief or rage, or any other unpleasant emotion.  Hope you enjoy this video!

Joy, Fulfillment & Risk

5/21/2022

0 Comments

 
In excitement of the next series coming up, I wanted to share more about this theme!

What is Joy? 

Journal about that before you read my thoughts :)

Joy to me, is a peaceful kind of happiness.  Its not excitement, or elation, but its laughing easily, its being in the present moment easily and happy with what is.  What is is perfect.  I do think it is possible to feel joy even when there is chaos or something unwanted around you.  This does require training to be able to be present to something unwanted and still feel joy.  With Joy; for some people I do think that there is a formula that for that particular person is tried and true.  I do not believe this is the case for all people.

What is Fulfillment?

Journal first :)

Fulfillment to me includes a sense of progress, peace, joy or happiness, and a recognition of your contribution.  Personally I enjoy the feeling of Fulfillment way more than Joy.  With Fulfillment I do believe its possible to feel both sad and fulfilled at the same time.  With fulfillment there is a sense of knowing that you are in the right place, that you are going in the right direction (even if things suck in that moment), and that you effort is important.  With deep fulfillment, there is usually some element of risk that was required before that deep sense of fulfillment.

And Risk!

We all know what Risk is.  Please do not do anything potentially harmful or reckless.  That is not the kind of risk I am talking about.   Taking a leap, or a risk is required for your growth and its also a part of what helps us to feel deep fulfillment.  Risk might be speaking your truth? Stepping up your visibility? Saying no or establishing a boundry with a loved one?  It might be quitting your job?  Signing up for a new class?... Risk is different for everybody, the only common thing is that its on the other side of our comfort zone.  We all have this invisible line that we operate inside, and that is called our comfort zone, risk is beyond that line :) BUT we know it when we have crossed that line! We might feel uncomfortable, nervous, feel sweaty, panicky, anxious, maybe even fear?

Personally I do not think its a good idea to go so far beyond our comfort zone that we trigger a full blown panic attack in ourselves.  But getting to know your edge is a good thing for our expansion, fulfillment and deep satisfaction in our lives.

Also when we try something new, or scary to us, we shake up our energy flow for the better, and we also change up and accelerate what the universe is able to deliver to us.  Again this does not mean doing reckless things, like spending money we know we don't have, going out with a person we don't actually feel good about, to a location we know nothing about, or any number of situations that test our physical or emotional safety.
When we take risks towards our desires - in this case those things that stop you from making your desire happen, we shake up the energy around us.  We open up new energetic doors that were not previously available to us!  SO, while taking some kind of risk is an effort of sorts, its also telling the universe "HEY! I'm serious about this desire!"  This is exciting to the universe, and our friends around us, and the universe, and those we love want to help us.  Thus manifesting faster.  This further increases our joy and fulfillment in life!
----------------------------------------------------
In preparation for this upcoming class.
You achieve so much more than you realize!  Looking at this list will strengthen you for the next leap you are about to take :)
 
Look at how far you have come in the last 6 months.
And then also how far you have come in the last three years.

Please get out a piece of paper, and fill at least one page, of the things you are proud of from both the past 6 months, and the past three years.

Would you like even deeper fulfillment?

5/19/2022

Hello!
I hope you are doing well 
I know I am so excited that the weather is getting warmer, and it's much more enjoyable to spend way more time outside!  (Time outdoors is a critical component for me to recharge and fill up my own energy, like doing pushups!)

I wanted to let you know about my upcoming events!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The next series of Art of My Presence is coming up!
Monday June 6th 3:00 pm PST
fulfilledandabundant.com/presence

---------------------------------------------------------------
The first class is always free.  It's a powerful and very fun class.  Many people have even manifested something they were wanting just from the first class  and everyone feels better afterwards, weather they came in crying and then felt calm and peace, or came in happy and then felt raised up even higher.  
This class is perfect for anyone, no matter where you are emotionally, or how advanced you are (or not) energetically.  And appropriate for anyone 14 years and older.  Yes, boys are very welcome, although generally women are much more attracted to this work. 

Those that have been with me for a long time are enjoying some very powerful and restorative integration.  It's amazing, and magical to witness each of my clients manifest, up level, and become more solid in their foundation = their lives are getting better. 
----------------------------------------
The theme for this upcoming series beginning June 6th, is Joy, Risk and Fulfillment
I know, it looks like a weird theme.  During our 6 week class we will focus on Joy and Fulfillment, outside of class I am going to encourage you to take some risks!
Risk is a key element to our expansion in Joy and Fulfillment.  Can you think of a time you took a huge risk, to thankfully achieve it, and then feel that ecstatic elation afterwards?  And sometimes even moving 1 inch closer towards risk causes so much anxiety that you are in a sense debilitated?  Focusing on increasing your joy and fulfillment intentionally is KEY to strengthening you to be able to take that risk.  I am not talking about reckless risk.  I am talking about that thing you have been wanting for a long time but the things you have to do to get there are scary. 
Maybe its a difficult conversation - so that you can arrive and deeper connection and understanding?  Maybe its being vulnerable and authentic with that really sexy potential partner?  Maybe its being way more public or social media or anywhere else - so that you can grow your business or client base?  Maybe its changing your business services that you know would do you a lot of good, but you are scared to go forward?  Maybe its quitting your job to start your own business?...
We all have that thing and it is scary.  Its scary because their is potential for failure, whether its encountering trolls, the conversation blowing up, or your business not actually being successful by the time you really needed it to be…  Rejection in any form is terrifying to almost everybody.  Those very few who appear to not be afraid of rejection, are either really good at pivoting or reframing the experience.  And that is where focusing on Joy and Fulfillment comes in!  It supports you to pivot faster, and reframe the experience with a little more ease.
This series there will be a little more accountability and connection with the other classmates than previous classes.  I think this will be more fun.  But I’ll also be holding you to the fire a tiny bit more ;)  Don’t worry, I am included in this!  We’re all in this together, and so you’ll also see my vulnerabilities, as we all up level together.
For 6 weeks you’ll have a team rooting you on in both your expansion in Joy and Fulfillment, as well as going for those risks!  That in itself is already a win <3
-------------------------------------------
I invite you to try the free class to experience what this kind of work can do for you.

Bonus: there is a beautiful downloadable phone wallpaper that is my free gift to you at the bottom of this web page for you to enjoy and start your intentional up leveling process right now.

Enough Time

5/13/2022

0 Comments

 
Today I just finished a call.  Before the call I decided I was going to go to the beach to ground and get some sun. 
After the call, I thought about my day, and then I said “I don’t have the time” And I felt the weight of my fatigue get way worse right away.  I rationalized, maybe I can lay down on the balcony?  As I looked at the meters of the house, that are on my unit, that I know cause EMF’s (Electromagnetic Fields). 

Where as, at the beach, I would be truly grounding, and there are no power lines around, and I know how delicious the energy is there… I started to stress out.  Seriously! What a dilemma, lol ;)
So, I sat down and asked my body and God, which one they wanted me to do. 
Beach! Hands down. 
So, I decided to go.  I got there, and it was delicious.  I felt my body melt right away.  I set up the blankets, laid down, baking in the sun <3 

I could feel receiving the healing grounding energy from the earth, and the delicious hot infrared light from the sun (I was covered up because it was still cold.  But with a blanket over me, I was baking <3!!<3!!  And then I realized, this.  How dumb! It truly costs me a lot to not go ground at the beach.  I feel so recharged afterwards, and significantly happier, compared to being at home, trying to be productive, but actually take 2 naps, and not doing anything, except spinning my wheels.  And after returning from the beach, I felt recharged and inspired, which is actually more productive.  I know we all do this, and so some self-analysis is a good thing.

What does "not enough time" or money mean for that matter?  Seriously, I don't have the time to do something that I know is super good for my health and energy levels?  What???  The truth of that statement, when I really look at it, is actually "I am choosing to put importance on obligations, rather than what I know will nourish me, and support me for the things that matter in my life."
​
And yet, we all say that we don't have the time, or don't have the money to do something that we know would be really good for us.  Because of me catching myself I will be going to the beach way more often.  And now I know, when I say that phase, "ding ding, pay attention!!"
 Also when you say you don't have the time or the money -to get out- of some situation, you are actually lying.  And the energetic cost of lying sticks with us for a while.  Where as if you said the truth "I don't want to" or "there are other priorities more important to me right now" you walk away with clarity, and feeling more empowered.  There is no internal questioning that happens.

What do you say you don't have the time for?

What do you or have you said you don't have the money for?

What is it costing you to pass those things up, and stay the same?

When we choose change, its powerful, uplifting, and brings in new possibilities that were not available to us before.  We we avoid change, it eventually comes crashing down on us, and feels horrible.  I have gone through both, several times :)  Its not to say any of us won't go through that again.  But it is beneficial to do some self analysis.  Choose the thing that will actually make your life richer <3

Sending love,
Jessica

Happy Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day!

As I wish you all a happy and reflective Earth Day, I remember going to my first meeting to help the earth, I was 11.  It was a group of girls led, by one girl that seemed to be pretty experienced.  We decorated magnets made out of the tin ends of concentrated juice.  Don't know if any of you remember those froze juice packs that came in a circular cardboard packaging, with tin end caps?  I don't even know what the name of that packaging is!

Anyway, as we celebrate Earth Day, I hope to inspire you to look at your own life.  What is one tiny thing that could make this planet a bit healthier?  PS, did you know improving your own health is in many many ways making the earth a bit healthier?  I think this is important to point out, because if the change we want to make actually makes our own life better, its usually much easier to stick with.  So here are some ideas:

Eliminate or reduce the amount of toxins in your personal care products.  I am sorry to say that many of our favorite brands of make up, or lotion, have some pretty toxic chemicals.  And there are many alternatives that are just as good!

Or you might choose to only eat what's local and in season.  Seeing that the weather is getting warmer, this should be quite delicious and easy to do.  How about eating 100% organic for at least a few months?  You could up level that, by also making sure your food as a Non-GMO Project verified label, a B crop Label, or a regenerative agriculture label (regen ag)

Maybe cancel your gym membership, and work out - outside?

Try composting

Choose to walk instead of drive...

Or just go to the beach and meditate, giving appreciation to natural beauty!

Here's a YouTube play list for more inspiration!

Here's to a better you and a better planet,

Ready or Not; I am ready

The beginning of a new path.
The past 10 years, I worked in a job I had dreamed about being.  I became a flight attendant at 27, when I was still so ancy and addicted to traveling even after 2 years of living in other countries.  Having this job satisfied my ancy-ness. I truly never knew what was going to happen when I would show up to work.  I expected I would meet new people and have fun.  It was fast paced and intense which I loved! 
​My people skills became fine tuned, which I am proud of and grateful for.  I grew as a person and as a professional.  I became incredibly adaptable, because of this job I became so incredibly solution oriented.  It was also an amazing playground to play with manifesting powers.  

The first 5 years were AMAZING.  When I lived in Australia I would say that was the best time of my life.  Then when I became a flight attendant, that became the best time of my life.  
Slowly things became less interesting.  The problems became more boring.  It was always the same “type” of person that had particular issues.  Sometimes dealing with the issues was as if on auto pilot.  The hardest part of the job was always difficult crew members.  Which I am so grateful that it was very rare.  The stress was high.  I never did get used to the level of stress.  Then when we were bought by another company, my heart broke.  They were different.  It felt like they wanted to break us - not take what was amazing about us and integrate it.  The company was very micromage oriented, and this increased my stress.  I became resentful, and some negative habits began to creep in.  I didn’t notice it for a while, even when occasionally people would comment on it “sounds like you are done with this job”, I thought that was rude, why would they say that?  
Over time my health began to noticeably deteriorate as well.  I knew it was because of the job: high stress, sleeping horribly, often not sleeping at all, being only in blue light sometimes all of the sunlight hours, not getting any time outdoors or to exercise several days in a row often….  Eating pretty bad, and always at restaurants.  And I was so unhappy with my life when I was home.  I was gone too often to create or invest in what I wanted.  I felt like I was only recovering and then filling in the holes with my friends and family.  While I still had a lot of fun on my layovers.  It was very much a double life, which I enjoyed, but did not like that people at home did not get it.  I quit talking about flying all together.  I didn’t enjoy talking about the challenging moments to people in my “normal life” nor did I enjoy talking about the amazing parts, like staying in 5 star resorts, having a ton of fun with my crew, eating at amazing restaurants, I just felt like a jerk to talk about this so casually.  But this was my life.  All of my flight attendant friends felt the same way.
I began to grow in coaching and personal growth.  I began to see results, this became a big passion.  And yet, I was feeling alienated because of it.  I wanted to talk about deep soul desires, and our shadow aspects.  Other people were like “ahh you just need another drink!”
I was slowly and yet very quickly outgrowing my old life.  Until my health issues became such a big deal that I felt suffocated by my job, and I was just managing…. And then one day I just couldn’t.  I collapsed, luckily at home, but I could not get out of bed.  Now I know, this was my body saying “you are finished.”
I had always seen myself as very healthy, learning and improving my health was always a passion, so this came as a big shock to me.  I did not understand to what depth flying was bad for my health.  And also that I was ready for the next path, the next phase of life.  Although scared.  I wanted to keep flying in my back pocket and evolve as a coach… But I wasn’t really leaping.  Somehow the security of having flying to fall back on was actually a cap instead of a safety net.  Today, March 2, 2022 is the day that I am officially finished.  And I am ready for this new path.
I feel the same as arriving to a new country that I am going to live in for a year.  It's the same feeling, a little nervous, a lot excited, a good amount of overwhelm, along with lots of deep breaths, and baby steps. 
“What is the next step now?”

So world.  I am ready for the next path.  I am ready to shine in a new capacity, and serve in a different way.  I feel the dreams of workshops, seminars, and truly transforming people’s lives so much more palpable than ever before.  And I also feel things that I cannot yet see.  I am excited and I am ready. 
And I also want to reflect that I didn’t see (until now) how my clinging to what I thought was an amazing back up plan was actually a gigantic block.  And now that the block is removed, I feel increased life force, some sadness, and optimism as I close this amazing chapter, and begin to create a new chapter of my life.

I want to share some of the biggest lessons that still stand out to me from flying, as I do believe this line of work is fairly unusual.
​

- For the most part people are good.  People love to help others.  It was very heartwarming to see someone happily switch seats so that a family could sit together, or to jump in to help someone elderly.  This was a beautiful lesson that I am grateful for.  Before flying I thought on the whole people were dumb and didn’t care.  Thankfully I was proved to be wrong.

- When people are jerks, they are being like that to everybody else in their life too.  Can you imagine what it would feel like to have so many people really not like you?  No wonder they are jerks!  I would often say “these people are just having a bad life.”

- You really never know what is going on with the other person. 
I never forgot this man.  He was a boy to me.  He must have been about 19.  He was rude and adding to my stress to meet the company's (unrealistic) expectation of on time door closure.  He had too many bags, I told him I would have to check one, he said “fine!” as he threw them all on the floor.  It was actually in my best interest to keep all of his bags in the plane - to minimize potential issues with him, and to get on time door closure (and avoid reprimand).  I was able to figure it out, I found space for each of his bags.  Then at the end of the flight his seat mate told me what had just happened.  Both of his parents had just died in a car accident over the weekend.  I felt so horrible, this still brings me to tears.  This boy has no idea the lesson he taught me.  You truly do not know what is going on with the other person.  Similar stories to this happened many times over the years.

- A high school boy asked if he could pray for me.  It was the sweetest thing.  At that time, I had recently become interested in learning about Jesus, I was big into manifesting.  And Jesus is still the best manifester that has walked our planet.  And so because of that I understood what a sweet gesture that was.  I was honored.

- The many times of laughing hysterically with my crew members.  

- That I have the ability to be ready in 5 minutes.  I am grateful to know the right hairstyle. 
- Red lipstick is magic.

- How quickly you can manifest. It's AMAZING.

- How having a structured journal practice really increased my happiness and life satisfaction, as I think it would also provide the same for you!  This was so foundational once I started.

- The better you get, the better life gets.
Complaining is an addiction.  While working in such a fast paced high stress environment my crew actually did not want to be around me as much when I committed myself to “the no complaint challenge.”  This is an amazing challenge, it will change your life.  Read the book: A Complaint Free World.

In the vision of my perfect life, I wanted to keep flying as a back up as I pursued my new career, but the universe had other plans for me.  It was painful to let this old dream die.  Finally I was ok with my new path, that I would not have flying as an option anymore.  And truthfully I do not want it in my life in any form (now).  Flying is so incredibly bad for your health.  As I learned intimately, and then as I did research to figure out how to heal my invisible illness, I learned the science behind why.  You can do your research to understand mitochondrial health if you are interested in understanding for yourself, and please reach out to me to get my play list of incredible content each video gave me a new rabbit hole to research as I continued to piece things together.

I had already known for a long time because of channeling, that when you take to long to upgrade the universe is forced to step in, and kick you out from your old / present life.  The universe may do this with health issues, as was the case for me, it might also happen in a series of bad things happening, or lots of things just not working out.  It will usually show up in the way that is most painful to you, as that is the way that you are most likely to pay attention and take action.  Yes it does suck very much to be going through it.  I knew this is what was happening, and I was still struggling, and so attached to my old dream.  So you see just because someone is a coach, does not mean they are an expert at letting go and moving on.  Its hard when its your life.  And I also think this experience has made me a better coach.  Better at holding space, better at working with and allowing of what you are or are not ready for.
Thank you for reading, this post helped me to celebrate, commemorate, and move forward with excitement.  I hope this inspires you to take some leaps when they present themselves.  You do not have to change your life all at once, and sometimes when you take too long to make the change you know you are being called to, life will do what it needs to to squeeze you out of the stuck place.  I know it's uncomfortable, I know when you try too hard to stay in what does not work anymore, it will feel like life sucks.  But the truth is, you are taking too long to make the important upgrade changes that you need to make.  Just as I was.  Ready or not; I am ready now. 
Good by flying,
​hello 100% committed to coaching and the personal growth industry!

Sending love,

New Year, New Clarity, New Energy!

12/30/2021

Hello!
With the New Year, we will bring about New Level Clarity, and this will create awesome shifts, propelling you into your New Energy 

This past series of Art of My Presence was so fun, each of us enjoyed our own and each others' up leveling   Many of us enjoyed speaking things into reality

What is up leveling?  I talk about it a lot, I am really passionate to support, facilitate and witness people's up leveling.  Up leveling is when we successfully achieve a new height that not too long ago was very uncomfortable.  It can look any number of ways, including more money, deeper connection with friends and family, ever more fulfillment in romantic relationships, new heights of happiness and a much higher percentage of your day...  It can be measurable and immeasurable.  

Have you ever heard of the "upper limit"?  Gay Hendricks writes about it in "The Big Leap."  Many other coaches also talk about your "set point."  Your set point and your upper limit are basically the same thing, this invisible cap on how much good you are "allowed" or "capable" of experiencing.  It's all unconscious, and these "rules" or "upper limits" we have for ourselves can vary greatly from one topic to the next topic in any area of life.  The way to raise your set point or upper limit, is to consciously and intentionally work with it.  Intentionally getting as close as you can to that cap, and breaking though enough times so that it's your new normal.

It's totally possible to do this on your own, without the help of anyone else.  Go for it!!  
Here is my YouTube channel for tons of ideas to up level on your own:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeb_DJFiSgI-e0U8y9vjvbg

BUT it's way easier and faster to raise your set point by working together with someone, and that is one of the things that we do during this class.  Though usually not directly addressed, your set point gets raised during each 5 week series, and many people love the results of up leveling that happens 

This coming series we will be addressing up leveling set points directly, and seeing that it's the new year, we will focus on gaining clarity in several different areas of your life!  With the level of clarity that I will facilitate in you achieving very often a natural byproduct is pretty quick manifestation.

Come try out the free Introduction to Art of My Presence coming up!

The only thing you have to lose is outdated "set points;"
 Let's raise the bar for yourself, and thus for all around you.  This makes the world a better place, one up level at a time 

You do have to sign up for this free class, feel free to invite your friends, it's so fun to do this class together with those that you love.  I would be thrilled to see you!

Monday January 10th
3:00 - 5:00 pm PST
www.fulfilledandabundant.com/presence


Men are welcome to join
Teens older than 14 are welcome to join.  Though if you are younger than 18, I would encourage you to have your guardian participate in the free class so that they can see what you are learning.
This work is very appropriate for anyone.  

Sending love,

Celebration of my own Desired Manifestation

11/16/2021

0 Comments

 
Today I'd like to share my recent favorite celebration.

As someone that teaches people how to shift their energy so that they can manifest their desires, people often ask me "What have you manifested?"  And I go blank!  I forget, I am focusing so much on just staying present, and giving as much love as I can during interviews, that I forget my successes.  Why am I so focused on my own presence and holding love? Because that helps other people to reach for something more, even if they don't understand it, AND it helps all people manifest faster :)

Another thing about manifesting.  We can only manifest what we truly desire in our hearts, AND that we also believe is possible for us.  so each one of us manifests quite differently. 

No judging yourself :)

My recent celebration is Elisabeth!  It sounds weird to say that I manifested Elisabeth.  She already existed before I knew her, lol.  Its our partnership, that we both manifested.  That's another thing: manifesting is a co-creation with the universe or the other pieces/people involved.  So if something is not happening "fast enough", it is possible that its not the right time for it, or that it does not want the same exact thing that you want, and so it will show up in a different way.  The acceptance of this truth as a potential of what is going on for you, will help to manifest it faster.

I was REALLY wanting marketing help.  But I really wanted someone that had already taken this course the Art of My Presence, for two reasons, and that they really loved the class.  Elisabeth has taken two of my classes, and she is very impressive with her ability to integrate, up level, and manifest, so its extra fun for me to have her in my class (selfishly :)

My two reasons for wanting someone to help me that had already taken the class and loved it, is I was struggling talking about the class, so I wanted someone that understood what it was through experience, and if they loved the work, it would be fun for them to talk about it, and do the marketing.  Another very important thing to me.

Then along came Elisabeth!  I really liked her personally, and made my offer, and she was excited too!

Now I can relax around marketing, which I really don't like doing.  This is such a giant weight lifted off me, and now I post, reach out to others when I feel like it, and the joy has returned.  Plus Elisabeth is amazing, so talking with her more often, just makes me more happy to have another really cool friend <3

When the subject of manifesting comes up, many people think of money, cool vacations, or luxury items, but that is not always the case.  I encourage you to take one of my classes to see what this work is all about.

If you are interested in this work but the time doesn't work out.  I have many friends that I went through the same certification program with The Awakened School, with Rachel Jayne Groover, that offer similar classes.  Just let me know and I will connect you to someone that offers the flexibility that suits your schedule.

A secret to faster manifesting, is to count all the times it did work out, or all the things you already have to celebrate.  SO!

What would you like to celebrate today?
Post below something you would like to publicly celebrate <3
Sending love,

Heart Break, Apoptosis & the POWER of presence

11/2/2021

0 Comments

 
Hi!

I wanted to share a big insight I just received.  Luke Story is one of my favorite podcasts.  He shares incredible content with incredible living revolutionaries such as in this interview with Lana Bach-Morrow. AMAZING! 

As you can see from visiting my website I teach presence, meditation, and help people achieve new heights of fulfillment and abundance in their lives.  A GIANT component of reaching new heights of both fulfillment and abundance is presence.  But with the sticky or painful emotions so often people do not like to be intensely present to the painful things they are going through.  Its so common to try to feel better when you are down. Often we say "cheer up" or "turn that frown upside down" or any number of things to try to help others feel better.  This is a natural part of humanity.

BUT to truly deeply heal, the person going through the experience usually has to choose to be deeply present with it.  Most people that I have encountered do not like to hear this.  But my own most profound healing experiences have been when I deeply deeply stayed present with the pain.  And then afterwards felt like magic.  And I never felt that level of pain around that subject again.

Presence is a magic transformer, though it takes practice to be able to hold it at all times.  I am still practicing and evolving!

During this interview Lana explains the science behind transformation.  She said one thing that made a lot of things click in my head, and created a new level of appreciation and commitment to holding my own presence.

She said "Heartbreak is actually apoptosis of the cells in the heart"  Apoptosis is the death of cells.  And then I thought about my most powerful meditations, and I thought "oh my god"  I get it.  Now I get it why  presence is so important.  I understood the process of what is happening.  

So if when we experience heartbreak, or any other painful emotion, the cells are breaking, or dying.  If the cells are dying, then at a cellular level we are going though the grief process.  Everybody grieves differently, and you cannot rush grief.  But when you bypass and try to feel better you are cutting off the natural process of grief, and so it gets stuck and stored in our body.  When you are allowing deep presence to what is happening in your body, and you allow IT to complete.  There is completion, there is nothing residual to fester.  Once you have completely healed that part or process, a natural evolution or expansion occurs.  And once the dead cells are completely out, it now has new space for new creation.  Space for new cells to be re-produced.  But when we try to feel better, we are filling up that painful space, the the reality is that it cannot be filled up, because what is dying, is still there.  And thus we interrupt the great --> healing --> creation cycle, and its a little harder to manifest because of the cellular blockages that we do not see.

I believe most of us are trained to not deeply feel what we are experiencing, and instead trained to always seek happiness, always seek a higher state.  Yes, that is awesome, I love feeling happy.  BUT because of how we have been trained by the generation before us, and the generation before them... There is this kind of addiction to feeling great that creates an aversion to feeling less than.  This aversion often shows up in shame for our sad, angry, painful emotions, or even addictions.  Addictions can also include "healthy" things like exercise and learning.  Its this aversion that blocks many of us from truly deeply healing.

It was so fascinating for me to get that pain, emotional and physical, or heartbreak is actually apoptosis of the cells in that area.  And deep presence, allows that grief cycle, that is actually occurring at a cellular level, to profoundly heal, and then allow for expansion and creation.

Expansion and creation is the fun part that most people like.  This is what manifesting is.  The Art of My Presence classes that I teach is a really enjoyable and fun way to change the patterns, and allow those cells that were not permitted to complete the grief cycle to complete and thus manifest!

I hope you enjoyed my insight, and I hope you enjoyed this amazing interview by Luke Story.  Also I do not know Luke Story, I would love to meet him, and be a guest on his podcast someday, and this is not a promotion for him.  I just wanted to share my insight.

Sending love,
​Jessica

Crystal Ra Interviews Me  *  Inspired by the Courage to Live Authentically

10/28/2021

0 Comments

 
Download the podcast for yourself here
https://abundanceinaction.podbean.com/e/jessica-sorensen/

It takes courage to truly live authentically.  Personally I believe it is a practice, and you come to many tests often.  What gives me strength to hold to that courage, is that I have to be the leader.  If I am not brave enough to live authentically, then how will I inspire others to have the same courage?

I deeply want to live in a world where every single one of us are brutally honest, about our needs, desires, intentions, and most importantly our "why".  You can't just tell someone "you have to be courageous, you have to be authentic",  the only way to get people to choose to live authentically is to show them you are doing it, and they will be ok, because you are ok.  Am I scared? YEP! I run into "tests" or road blocks often, as each one of you will.  BUT when you have the courage to live authentically to the TRUTH of what is inside you, you end up changing the world, each authentic choice at a time.  You break the cycles of co-dependence, you choose your health, you choose your happiness, and that will help everyone, even if some people don't like it at first.

There is so much more juice in the podcast, please download, listen and enjoy!

Your Rock

10/27/2021

Hello!

This article is for those who are wanting to up level, or patch up the bottom, and feel more happiness.  This article is inspired by my foundational practice that just creates so much stability and increases my happiness levels from the bottom up, so that I have a natural buoyancy. (That's not normal for my past self, I had to work REALLY hard to get to a place of natural happiness.)

I will share my practice at the end.  But first about you.

Do you have something that you do everyday that creates foundational stability for you, and increases your happiness?  For some people its working out, journaling or meditating.  First, get clarity: Do you have that staple?  If its another person, that is a little unstable, because you are depending on someone else.  While that is amazing to have dependable people in our lives, you are outsourcing your foundation, even if they are incredible, loving, healthy people.

This thing, if you do not have it yet, then it should take about 30 minutes to do.  Something that you do every day.  A great way to make something your foundational rock, is to take something you already do everyday and find ways to make it even better.

How can you make your breakfast even better?
How can you make your shower even better?  
How can you make how you get dressed even better?
How can you make time with your kids, friends, partner, other important people even better?
.... 
This is just if you needed ideas :)
It doesn't matter what you pick, it should just be something important to you.

Now I will share my foundational anchor!
I have two, and it take me a lot longer than 30 minutes, but you just need to make it work for you.  I clean, tidy up, take care of, or prepare for the day/week ahead - the first hour of every day.  I love this practice, it puts me in such a better place the rest of the day.  I just feel more relaxed and together, and my day flows better.

My second practice, I journal, but its not typical journaling.  I have 13 goals for 13 different areas of my life, plus I track my period and the moon cycles, as well as my energy levels, its color coded, so each area of life has its own color and then I do typical journaling for the remainder of that page.  I LOVE this practice.  It just makes me happy to look at it, I automatically feel accomplished, and if at any point I get side tracked, don't know what to do next, feel board or directionless, this keeps me balanced and in line.  It does take time to record everything, but its also awesome to have everything recorded.  And I do end up achieving my goals, or sometimes my goals just walk into my life.  I firmly believe that is because I have this amazing practice.

I started this style of journaling May 2020, in the thick of the pandemic.  And it balanced me out, and gave me focus, so I didn't get sucked into the doom and gloom of fear, frustration, gossip, and anger that was floating around in society at a significantly higher concentration than previous years.  I had categories of my life that I needed to touch on!

Before I knew it, I was enjoying a faster rate of wanted manifestations, and now loved my down time.  Once upon a time, I hated down time, I thought it was boring.  Now!  I have my book to read, I have things to think about, parts of me to be present with.

I hope that this inspired you to take a look at your life and create a foundational rock for yourself, that nourishes you, patches up those holes, and raises you to new heights.

Because this frame work has created so much good in my life, I created a year long transformation program, using these foundations that have created awesome transformations in my life.  And soon there will also be a journal that will be available to purchase!

You can have all of your dreams, with consistent effort you will have all of your dreams, sending love,

The New Way and Upgrading

10/7/2021

0 Comments

 
Hello!

I just recorded a video and felt inspired to write.  I write significantly better than I speak.  But I hope you enjoy both!

The New Way - What is this?  The earth is going through a significant transformation, and up leveling, or I like to call it upgrading.  When you choose to upgrade it feels wonderful.  This could be choosing to take on a new project, enrolling in school, a new program, working with a coach, or resolving to make some big positive changes in your life.  These are examples of choosing to upgrade, or up level.  And its awesome, there is excited anticipation of how your life will get better, and very often your life does get better.

When you don't choose it... It kind of sucks.  Its the diagnosis that you can't drink anymore, that you are allergic to gluten or dairy, and it puts you out for days, when you try to eat your old favorite food.  Its when you just keep having bad days, it just feels like life is a bully and has chosen you as their favorite victim.  Of course this is not always the case, there could be other things that are going on.  But the point is, when the universe, source, god, whatever higher power you might believe in, says "you have taken too long, and its time for you to upgrade"  It feels awful, and it manifests as something you do not want.

This higher power is not punishing you, rather its trying to get your attention, its trying to get you to make better choices, but you couldn't hear, or didn't see all the more uplifting choices along the way, and so now all it has left is to hit you where it hurts.  It is very much like feeling like the rug is pulled out from under you.  The old version of your life that you liked and were comfortable with, is now painful, ultimately this forces you to choose happier, healthier more supportive and loving choices.  The universe trying to help you, but it only has so many tools.  It cannot manifest as a person and come explain to you, but it can influence things with energy.

People that like manifesting, are the ones influencing the universe.  That is what manifesting is.  But we are in a co-creative universe, and the different energies that we cannot see also have a desire.  Their desire is for expansion or evolution.

Simultaneously, the earth as a whole is upgrading, along with the universe.  What does that mean?  It means that the earth as a body of consciousness is also choosing a higher frequency, just as when we choose better habits.

Here is a metaphor.  You are together with your family, you are about 10-20 including your aunts, uncles & cousins.  You get together every week for a big pot luck, and you always look forward to the amazing cookies your grandma makes and all the different favorite meals that you share and enjoy.  You love this tradition.  And every single person decides that they are going to now fast on that day, and don't eat anything.  But they expected that you also knew, and so nobody said anything, and they all show up.  But nobody has food, nor wants food.  WHAT?  You are hungry, you were so excited.  They are sorry and feel bad, but they also ask you to be respectful of their new change, and to not eat in front of them.  They tell you this change is permanent.  This would be quite painful to go through.  You feel left out, deceived, not considered, hungry, angry for your tradition being ruined, resentful towards the fasting movement....

Now you have a choice, are you going to stay in all of these hurt feelings and also loose your connection with your family?  Or are you going to choose to make fasting also work for you because you know that there are some really great health benefits, and you would be happy if your health also got better?

This is a metaphor for what it is like for the earth to upgrade.  We choose to upgrade also and enjoy the befits that will eventually come, or we feel the discord that is pretty uncomfortable.

Additionally part of this upgrade is that time is speeding up.  Everything changes everything now.  Now its not possible for anyone to tell the future, there can only be likely potentials, and so a part of the up leveling is becoming more intuitive, and even though you may have really solid plans of how things will go, there will be many curve balls, and the end that you might be envisioning, doesn't completely exist, or there may be a massive detour that is required for you to take to get to your end goal.  This detour may make you feel like the end goal isn't going to happen.  And so getting intensely present and feeling the next right step is the way to go instead of your original plan.

The New Way is a way of doing things that is uncomfortable and new to you.  The way you are used to doing things, doesn't work as well as it used to anymore.  This is now true for everyone, because we all share this same amazing Mother Earth..

For me The New Way is coming back to center for ever single next decision and being incredibly conscious about everything I choose to eat, do, wear, speak, listen to...  I have been on this path of conscious evolution for a long time and this is still a bit uncomfortable to me, but it does get easier and better, and brings to you incredible things that you would not have been able to predict.  I hope you enjoy!

I would encourage you to collect a play list of short meditations under 5 minutes, or a journaling practice, that is short and easy to turn to several times a day.  This will be very helpful.

Sending love,

Better and Better

9/14/2021

Hello!

Today's article is inspired by the book I'm currently reading "YOU Are a Badass" by Jen Sincero and a little  conversation I had while flying.  On page 238 Jen Sincero is talking about setting honest goals.  This is something I already do, and what this blog is all about (feeling proud of myself, tehehe).  BUT this book has got me thinking "How can I make my life absolutely amazing?  What can I do in my life to literally spring out of bed?"  I know these questions are a forever work in progress...

BUT I asked the girls I'm working with, "what is something that you could do everyday that would make your life better?"  You never know, they may give me some great ideas or insight :)  One girl said she could purge something from her house every day.  I agreed, I can also do that, and I imagine it would make my life better as well.  The other girl said she could laugh more everyday.  I don't know why, but I grabbed her and started fake laughing, hahaha, it was only a matter of seconds before we both started really laughing.  Both of these girls did give me insight and ideas!  

I too, could also use a little more laughter in my life, even if its fake laughing, and tossing something each day that no longer serves me would leave me physically lighter, ready for whatever new thing may serve me better, even if that just means more space :) and less to clean!


So what is something that you can do every day that would make your life better?  

I would really love to hear from you!

The Ego, an Addiction

8/25/2021

0 Comments

 
Hello!

As I continue to evolve, I have bee questioning "The Ego" and my ego. 

I am not an Egoic Person, so I never resonated with the phrase "you have such a big ego."  And yet, I continue to encounter these "problems" of self sabotage, and all of the sudden recognizing that I just un-did what I had been work on for a long time.  And I watch it in everyone else too!  But for the sake of respecting other people's privacy I will only use myself or an un-named person as the example.

None of us are exempt ;)

The Ego is so interesting.  It ultimately serves as our preferences, what we like and don't like, it is the earth suit identity for our higher self.  And somewhere along the way The Ego took over, I believe as a survival coping mechanism, weather our actual life was really threatened or not.  For a long time The Ego running the show really served us, it helped us to define who we are, to establish our sense of self.  And then it just became out of control, but because it was running the show, it became very hard to pin point and identify.

Now I witness A LOT of people operating from The Ego, often in hurtful ways, and if confronted they just get more offensive or defensive.  I call this offensive behavior as a means of self preservation being attacky.  They are "attacking you back"  because in some way you hurt them first.

Other ways The Ego shows up (for all of us) is:
Always being right, See I told you so, knowing more than others, needing to correct others
Defending, or pointing out how you are "better than,,," in any way, to the persons face or not
Comparing, in any way
Planning too much, this will usually show up eventually as exhaustion (I know this one well)
Feeling threatened, judged or judging
Pointing out how you are pious, a truly pious person never needs to tell anyone, or confirmation of how they are pious.
Identifiers or labels, needing to fix other people's problems
Any addiction of any sort... The list is endless  
I think I have been all of these at some point in my life, and many overlapping...

My most recent recognition of how my ego was running the show, and acting in self preservation no matter what detriment it caused to me - was sleeping horrible for weeks.

I have been sleeping awful for several weeks.  Feeling very frustrated and powerless, because I need sleep to heal and feel happy, and be productive.  My energy was completely out of whack because of this.  I was trying all of my tricks that I would do to help myself sleep, and for some reason none of it was working.  

I complained to my coach that the "minute I would lay down my ego would take over and start stressing out for me, even though consciously I knew I did everything I was able to that day."  Feeling deep frustration and rage towards this part of me that felt like it was trying to kill the whole human self of me.

Then last night I put on some positive music with affirmations to help me relax before trying to go to bed and it said:
"Sleep is extremely important because this is the time that the subconscious has to really up level and integrate all of the hard work you have been doing to make yourself better."

And I realized: "Oh my god! My Ego is fighting all of the hard work I am doing, because it doesn't want to die, and I am doing such a good job that the only tool it has to to prevent integration is at night!"

I was thrilled to recognize this,  The awful sleep of the past few weeks was my ego terrified of dying, and doing everything it could for self preservation.  This recognition allowed for instant compassion towards myself.  I don't completely understand yet why The Ego needs to attach death to changing, and I also don't understand why The Ego sees itself as separate from the rest of the human self, but this helps me in being more gentle with myself, and it also helps me to be more understanding of how hard it is for others to change.  While I continue to tell my ego that its not going away, I want it to stay, but that its role in my life is changing, there is still resistance, even for me. 

How does The Ego bulldoze you and what you are wanting in your life? 

How has The Ego convinced you that "that thing" is who you are?  

You are not what you know, you are not any of the things that you identify with, you are not any of the labels good or bad that you think you are.  You are not any of your patterns.  You are not any of your consuming emotions.

You are beautiful, you are love, you are light, you are needed, and you are forever evolving.

The Ego has taken a strong hold of all of us, we can see how this is being played out in society as well.  Its time for us to lovingly put The Ego back in its place.  This does take a lot of work, but you can do it, just as I will keep at it.

The ego in its healthy state tells you what you like and don't like, but there is no attachment, there is no "I will die if I don't do that, have that, be that..."

I encourage you to take some time to notice how The Ego is showing up in your life.  How does The Ego help you?  How does The Ego get in the way of what you are wanting to create in your life?

Sending Love,
Jessica

Dogs & Energy Work

7/19/2021

When you do energy work, or internal work, you are shifting things inside you.  The process can sometimes feel like you are just throwing darts, sometimes it can be very painful, and sometimes its amazing.  BUT the best part about doing the work, is how life just changes for you.

Just to clarify, internal work can include: therapy, shadow work, parts work, energy clearing, working to change your energy patterns, working with the subconscious, working with your triggers...  

To the outside  world, and those around you, the way the world responds to your internal shifts looks like magic.  And often it feels like magic. 

It was last year, that I went to a seminar, and I had a very big aha or shift.  We were also doing a specific exercise of holding our energy a certain way.  I was doing an especially good job of holding my energy that day, maybe because of my big breakthroughs that week.

I have to preface, that before this week, generally dogs, especially little dogs, didn't like me.  I knew it was my energy but I didn't know exactly why, or what I was doing.  I was simply accepting that dogs didn't always like me.

I was doing an especially good job of holding my energy, I went outside for our break, and this dog FREAKED out to get closer to me.  He was very far away, and his owners were very surprised.  They were also going the opposite direction, and he was pulling very hard to get closer to me.  I was the only other person in the vicinity.  I thought it was amazing, I got an immediate confirmation that I was doing a good job!  The owners were annoyed.  They wanted to go.  The dog planted and would not budge!  Pointing his whole body towards me.  I thought it was so sweet! 

That moment made my day.  And every since then dogs always try to get closer to me.  Yesterday, on my hike, this happened again, it was so sweet!  The dog jumped towards me and landed right at my feet so that his body was pressing against my legs.  The owners were impressed, and said I must be a dog person.  I do love dogs, but I am not a dog person - I know these people, some of them are my friends <3

When you do the deep work, that energy work, and internal work is, you unlock things.  You unlock magic in your life, it could be more precious moments like these dogs, or getting the things you really want, nice people just always letting you go in front of them, always getting green lights...

I know internal work is not always fun, but its so important.  When we do the deep work, to be present with those painful parts of us, memories, emotions or sensations, we heal it.  What happens is that some invisible process that was previously running your life, stops, and you call in more love and more magic to your daily experience.  Its amazing!

You too can transform your daily life and breath magic into your life.  Who knows what kind of magic will show up for you, but it will be awesome.  And with commitment, you will continue to expand!

Work with me to unlock the magic in your life!

Invest in Your Future

3/16/2020

Hello!

When we think of investing, normally it's a place that we put our money with the intention of it multiplying.  And that is fantastic.  I wish for all of our money to multiply.  And generally multiplication in this sense is something  very good.  But what if you took a step back, and saw every single dollar you spend as an investment.  How would you use it differently? 

Would you go to a more expensive coffee shop, because you know that good people work there, because you know their coffee is higher quality and more ethical?  Would you choose to hire someone, that would make your day a lot easier?  A tutor for your child, therapy for yourself, a house cleaner, a coach?  Would you choose to have friends over to eat a high quality meal, instead of all going out to eat?  Would you choose to live in a different city?  Maybe for health or happiness reasons?  The list goes on and on.  Seriously, I dare you to spend one entire day, every single dollar you spend, see it as an investment.  Do you change anything?

Go a step further and remove the word "spend" from your vocabulary.  Say "I invested some money at the grocery store today."  Or "I circulated money with the mechanics today."  What changed?  try to notice the nuance, or maybe even massive shift in your energy, or even increased abundance.

Donating money to charity, or to a person or cause you believe in is in general a wonderful thing to do.  I think most people believe that.  It's also a fantastic abundance practice.  What if you saw that as an investment too?  What if you saw donating to charity as an investment in the society that you want to see?  That takes on a very different perspective.  Personally I donate to the Pachamama Alliance.  I think they are doing incredible work, and the environment is something that I am very passionate about.  What do you believe in?  What do you want to see more of?  How do you envision the future?

Many mentors have said that donating (specifically 10%) is a necessary abundance practice.  Donate what you can.  If 10% is too much, just do $5 or $20 a month.  Anything is better than nothing.   If you do begin to donate money, notice how your perspective changes?  Look at that, you have money to spare.  You have enough money to contribute towards a future you want to see.  You have enough money to influence the world.  And should things ever get tight, you can cancel that donation for a month and use that money.  Wow, back up money!

I dare you to find a cause you care about and donate what you can, OR increase your amount that you are already donating.  Some interesting stuff will happen.  You'll feel great about yourself, and somehow more money will show up to cover the amount you are donating.  Maybe not right away, but eventually it will.  While I can't make any promises, I say this with total confidence from my own experience.

Prosperity for all,
​Jessica

My Beginning

2/19/2020

0 Comments

 
Today I'd like to share how I got started in Money Coaching.  As a child some of my favorite things to do were to plan and to dream/design.  I loved to re-design my room, or design my future house (still one of my favorite things to do), and planning showed up in the way of color coding my calendar, and planning for "big" purchases.  As a child that meant music and clothes, then later on snow board trips.  And eventually I would begin to save up for traveling.  Traveling was something I had grown up with, and is still a very big part of my life.  So even though the amount of money I needed was a very large amount, that I did not understand where that money would come from I would still save.
I knew someday I would get there.  This a mindset that has served me very well.  One that I had taken for granted.  Now that I am a Money Coach, I see just how critical your mindset is.  

At 10 years old I began my first "job" doing Olympia Sales Catalogue.  I'd see to my nice neighbors that wanted to support me.  But this is where I made up my saving system, so that I have money for everything I want.  I did not know who Dave Ramsey was until many years later, but it was his system, basically. But a snowball method for saving.  I set my minimums,  and added percentages, then when I met my minimum all of that money for that category went to another category.

Fast forward through highschool and college, I worked and saved my money, I always had money for what I wanted.  I took out a student loan, just like I thought was normal and went off to college.  After college my priority was travel, and I made it happen.  I wasn't until my late 20's that I looked at my situation in the face, and realized I was not where I wanted to be.  So then I decided to buckle down and become debt free.  Because of college and a car loan, I owed about $40,000.  With my income at the time I calculated it would take me about 10-15 years to pay it off, nevermind saving.  I paid it off in 4 years.  

For my income that was impressive.  Sometimes I felt on top of it, and sometimes I felt like it was so far away.  But I stuck to my system and it worked.  It was my coach who pointed out how impressive that was, and that not a lot of people can do that.  I thought it was normal, and anybody can accomplish anything they want if they put their mind to it (at the time).  Now I see how past conditioning and beliefs are sometimes a giant subconscious block, that drive our decisions.  Sometimes we think we are making a good decision and it is actually sabotaging, but we can't see it because of our conditioning.

So my coach pointed out that I am really good with money, and not many people could become 100% debt free as fast as I did, and she recommended I look into Money Coaching.  It was as if it was meant to be.  From the day I decided I wanted to do money coaching to day 1 of the program was one week.  I began the program and working with a money coach myself.  I felt like I found my calling, it was a wonderful excited home feeling.  All of my practice clients (a requirement of the program) improved in their money situation in some way.  Some manifested a cheaper and more beautiful and fulfilling apartment, some, more clients without any advertising and a lawsuit settlement that they had grown hopless of getting closed, another the confidence to raise the price of her services.  And the work continues to pay off, as I can see that the shifts that occurred because of working together, and guided several decisions and events towards greater financial health and abundance for them.  I am so thankful to have helped each one, to reduce a big stress and receive more abundance.

Since my certification I have worked with several other clients, and enjoyed watching their growth and success.  And I have started a new coaching program with Rachel Jayne Groover, the Art of Feminine Presence.  (Any good coach, continues to do the work on themselves)  So eventually I will be able to teach this in combination with money coaching, for an even bigger shift!  

Shifts often bring the result of more money, and easier life, more fulfillment, better health, quicker manifesting....  How it shows up is very individual.  Our desires and preferences vary greatly.

So now I am constantly expanding towards even greater fulfillment and abundance, as I work with clients to do the same!

If you would like greater fulfillment and abundance schedule a free 1 hour coaching consultation. You'll learn more about the money coaching process, and we will address one issue that is affecting you right now. You can schedule it on the contact page, or send me an e-mail! Creativelyjessica@gmail.com.

I hope you enjoyed reading about my beginning, that truly began in childhood.

Love, Jessica
