Before our interview, I sent Jackie an email as I do all of my guests and I told her, I want this to be more than just a coffee chat:  I want to create a space where women who are dreamers and doers hear encouragement, feel inspired and invigorated, while gaining tangible advice and resources that they can use to live their best life, Jackie did just that! She showed up and showed out.

In this first part of a two-part chat, Jackie talks about going through a divorce, raising children, and checking all of the boxes, but still not being fulfilled.  

My interview with Jackie was so good that we have to make it two parts so we can take time to digest all of the nuggets that she gives us about building resilience when people are watching you. We’ve all been there as a parent and as a woman and thinking what if I fail, but what if I don’t? We have also internalized the opinions of others and this caused us to build a fence. Jackie is the mother of 7 children and I learned during this interview that Jackie struggles like many of us when we are pushing to our best self in our careers and things may be falling apart in another area of our life. Talk about being relatable.


What does it mean to be our best selves so we are able to have relationships with not only our spouses but also our children. Making hard decisions comes in life and when there are children involved, we have to decide, do we stay for them or do what’s right for us?
