The Power of Saying “Yes”

In a world full of "no's," and "not enough's," why is it so important that we start saying "yes" to ourselves? We all live with choice. What choices are you making?  If you truly said "yes" to yourself in every aspect of your life, what would that look like? What would saying "yes" to yourself look like today? And not "yes"…

The “A” Word

Long ago, I wrote a post called the "V" Word. It explored Brené Brown's talk on vulnerability and its integral part in leading a whole-hearted life. Today I'm dropping the "A" bomb, a word and emotion that for many of us, especially women, is a "dirty" word. I'm Angry! Why Am I Angry? This anger has been building up inside…

We Need a Leader

I woke up to a message from my friend that struck me. She said, "What I feel the whole BLM is missing is that leader to speak for us. We don't have a MLK or a Malcom X right now." Her comment made me think about leadership in 2020. In the midst of Black Lives Matter, Covid, politics, global economic…

Another Kind of V-Day

We all enter the world the same---vulnerable and clueless. From day 1, we rely on our communities to school us in who we are in relation to others, what to (not) believe, and how to go about life.

When to Bail Out or Stay the Course

This time last year, I was in the process of creating a huge and seemingly crazy dream. I decided in August of 2012 that I wanted to leave my job and my life in San Francisco and sail in South America. I had no idea how to sail. Very long story short, I found myself living the dream 3 months…

Drop the Mask & Be Who You Are

That title is easy to write but can be incredibly difficult to do. From a young age, we are encouraged to wear a variety of masks and labels so much so that the #1 regret of the dying is: "I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me." And…

How to Manifest & Create Your Dreams!

People often ask me, "Jackie, how is that you're able to do all these things: run your own business, travel across Europe for 3 weeks solo, live in China for 3 years, work for the Olympics, move to San Francisco without a job and a little over a $1,000 during a recession and get your dream job 5 weeks later?"…

You were courageous as a budding thespian in your high school play when the curtain went up and you were staring at…
