Manage episode 497414944 series 3461446
What if the very parts of your life you’ve been hiding—your mental health struggles, your pain, your shame—were actually the keys to your power?
In this deeply inspiring episode, we sit down with Jessica, founder of Girlfriends Inc. and Be Girl Powered, who shares her unfiltered journey from mental health challenges to living with clarity, purpose, and strategy.
Jessica opens up about how her hospitalization for mental health—once a source of embarrassment—became the turning point for her personal healing and professional mission. She now helps women own their stories, plan with intention, and step into lives they actually want to live.
You’ll hear how group therapy changed her life, why faith and mental health support aren’t mutually exclusive, and how strategic planning became her tool for healing and manifestation. Jessica offers real, practical wisdom for high-achieving women navigating emotional burnout, shame, and the tension between surviving and thriving.
