Announcing my new online program

Hi,

Remember the online program I mentioned designing for stress and anxiety? Well, many months of conversation and reflection has turned my brainchild into something even more exciting: a roadmap for stressed out, burned out creatives and entrepreneurs to create peace in their bodies as in their hearts and to design a strategy for a life of impact. I call it Peace + Purpose for short. If I have to choose only two things to share with the world, two things I have spent years accumulating knowledge around, it is these two.

I am excited (and nervous!) to officially launch my program and share this opportunity with you.

My vision has evolved over the last few months through conversations with clients and friends who have generously shared ideas for what this could be. I designed the curriculum based on the needs people share, and overwhelmingly that need, in the world we’re living in, is for relief from stress. I can think of nothing more antithetical to stress than inner peace and a sense of fulfillment.

Recently, a client came to me seeking coaching on burnout. She felt trapped by the steady income of her NYC director-level job to pay the bills (real talk), by clients that sucked her time and energy, and by work from home that consumed her waking hours and left little room for passion projects, personal relationships, or strategizing how to launch her own thing.

She took pride in her fast track career growth, industry success, academic accolades, and travel experience. She’s achieved every goal she’s set for herself, from school to her career. But when it came time to set a goal with an internal metric (feel fulfilled) rather than an external one (get a promotion), the steps weren’t clear. She felt stuck, owned by her school debt and from fear of failure.

She shared how she dreamed of working just 3 days a week, having quality time for her family, friends, and dog, the financial freedom to say NO to bad clients or an unfulfilling job, and the fearlessness to pursue new creative projects. But none of that was possible so long as she was too drained, emotionally and physically, to imagine an amazing future, nevermind designing the strategy to lean into fear and create it. 

I could so relate! As I listened to her talk, I realized how many people I see struggling to keep up with increasing demands, losing sight of the importance of mental well-being in the excitement of creating professional growth.

Few understand that success is meaningless if it doesn’t bring peace or fulfillment. How many people do you know who have ‘made it,’ they’ve got the job or the paycheck or the apartment, but still aren’t happy?

The truth is that peace comes from within.

Breathe in, know that you are breathing in. Breathe out, know that you are breathing out.

In this moment, wherever you are in the world, can you think of a cause for stress that isn’t related to the past or the future? Join me here, in the present moment, it’s where peace is.

The goal is not to become complacent about the future (I’m an activist and humanitarian, complacency is the last thing I seek to inspire!). Instead, I hope to show that if you can create stress with your thoughts, you can create peace with your thoughts. And if you work from a place of peace, anything is possible. 

So I’m committed to sharing a step-by-step guide for creatives and entrepreneurs to create a life of peace and impact in a world that cares more about KPIs and profit margins than your epitaph. I want to advocate for you in a way no one else has. I want that for you.

I’ve been exploring peace and purpose across four continents, two degrees, and thousands of dollars on personal training. I draw on Christianity and Buddhism, yoga and meditation, coaching philosophy and psychology.

How would you like to learn from my mistakes?

Years spent in bad jobs with bad bosses, resigning myself to ‘paying my dues’ before I could be happy, before I could be my own boss, before I could demand more from and for my life.

What if, instead of resigning yourself to a life of burnout, stress, and anxiety, you could invest a small amount of time and money to create a foundation for lifelong peace and purpose?

I’ve found that guided reflection, conversation, and movement are most powerful in this process, and I’ve spent years honing my skills and discerning what works from what doesn’t.

And now I’ve built my new program from the ground up, consolidating the last decade of my experience into the absolute most valuable components. You’ll be guided by my step-by-step course and individual coaching with me. 

I’d love to know if this could benefit you. So, in the next week before Christmas, I have a few spots set aside on my calendar to talk about a personalized strategy for you.

These custom breakthrough sessions are for anyone committed to creating lasting change in their life through hard work and commitment. No magic pill solutions here.

I only have a few spots available in order to keep this first class super small, personalized, and supported. I hope that includes you!

Much love,
Jen
