Six years ago I was hired by Martha Beck as her personal assistant. At that time I had a thriving Virtual Assistant Business. Over the course of my time working with Martha and at MBI, I went through the coach training and eventually became a master coach. It’s now time for the next stage of my evolution–moving away from my work as a Virtual Assistant and into leadership and team-building coaching and consulting.
This has not been an easy decision for so many reasons….mainly my own self confidence in what I have to give to the world. However, my spirit knew I couldn’t stay working in the basement any longer and no matter what I think, I have to get out there and give it my all in doing what lights me up.
Through asking for guidance, prayer, mentorship, friendship, support, magic and love I now have the courage to do exactly what I’ve been dreaming about doing.
Looking back I feel like I’ve been in a bird in a cage with the door
open but staying exactly where I was because I wasn’t sure my wings would work. Now the door is open and I’m being lovingly coaxed out because everyone knows how strong my beautiful wings are and that I’ll soar.
Do I know what it’s going to look like? No. Am I afraid of failure? Yes. But, with every ounce of me I know it’s going to be fine.
To each of you who have been a part of the process, to those who shared such kind and thoughtful and loving words, to my friends and my family……thank you. With everything I have, thank you.
thanks for the inspiration for so long i have been meaning to start my own thing but am still working for others . I really need to burn my bridges and move to provide better for myself and my family.
I really want to start a school but I need to be inspired to move on and make it happen.
Thank you Jessica fro the inspiration.

i needed it but financial issues always become setbacks for me. Because I take care of my children alone.
