b'Jessica Stong is passionate about helping women create a life that is full of joy and peace. While so many women are crushed by perpetual overwhelm, constant guilt, or even a lack of purpose, Jessica is on a mission to show them how to manage their brains and to truly feel their feelings. She equips women to overcome all of their self-created fear and build a life of intention.

Jessica is the founder of Lives of Courage, a holistic coaching approach, which utilizes the most effective and proven coaching methods to overcome roadblocks and clear the path for personal success. Through Lives of Courage, Jessica has the privilege of working with women of different ages in distinctive life stages to change their lives through coaching. As part of her practice, she developed the psychological framework Cycle of Courage, which supports individual growth and development. As someone who has utilized these tools and walked through the Cycle of Courage herself, she can show you how it is done.

TAKEAWAYS:

+ Jessica says that our thoughts create our emotions, and our emotions drive our actions. So when we are feeling fear, we don\\u2019t need to push our fear down and avoid it, we need to acknowledge that it\\u2019s a part of us, but it doesn\\u2019t decide what our actions are. Courage is not just an emotion, it\\u2019s an action too.

+ Thinking positively and speaking affirmations isn\\u2019t a logical way to create true change within your thoughts. In order to change the way you think, which changes your actions, you need to face your fears head on. As Jessica says, \\u201cYou gotta name it to tame it.\\u201d

+ Jessica teaches a technique she calls \\u201cladder thoughts\\u201d. In order to reach our end goal, you have to map out pit stops along the way. So by creating a ladder of thoughts that each build on one another, it makes making the end goal a possibility.

+ One of Jessica\\u2019s ways that she coaches is by helping her clients feel their emotions, and then develop strategies to move through and past their feelings. Her motto is, \\u201cYou have to feel it to heal it.\\u201d Instead of pushing your emotions down, she gives her clients strategies to process, cope, and then change the way they think about their emotions.
