Speaker: Kristina R
What were things like when you began working with Jessica Ruth Shepard? What challenges did you come with?
Kristina R: Hi, I'm wanting to pass along an amazing testimonial for a good dear friend of mine, Jessica, who I had the privilege of meeting, gosh, I think it's been about 5 years now, and I have become a better person because of her. And I mean that because she's always been there when I needed her to be. And most importantly, she's helped coach me and we've had one on one sessions where she's really helped me connect deeper within myself. She's helped me learn how to really listen to myself. Also shift mindsets and when there are things that have been blocking or been obstacles, mostly with my mindset and how I view things, she's really helped shed some light on that and to help me see things in a different perspective, which has really freed me up to live life more fuller, as well as being more connected to myself and just loving me for more of who I am. I cherish Jessica and she comes with so much skill set and talent. She's very in tune, very connected, and she's an incredible person. And if you are looking for someone, uh, to help guide you through whatever it is, I assure you Jessica is an incredible person to take this journey on.
What have you accomplished so far as a result of your work with Jessica (inner and outer)?
Kristina R: One of the biggest things that Jessica's helped me with was to be able to soften, be gentle with myself, and to really listen to myself and to take those moments and connect with that voice inside. And so, since I've been meeting with her, I've learned to really stop, pause and listen. Become gentle, really soften, and be OK to step into more of my femininity, which has been a challenge for me since I tend to be more on the masculine side, especially when it comes to my job. Uh, so, that has been amazing to be able to do that kind of work with her.
What would you want other people to know about Jessica and her work and yours together?
Kristina R: What I would want others to know about Jessica is just how truly genuine she is about wanting to help others, and she comes with uh a gift and an instinct to really know how to connect with people and what people are really struggling with and to help articulate it and help them discover what it is and identify some of those challenges and those obstacles that we put up in front of ourselves. She has such A talent for really seeing that and helping in a way for you to see it in a gentleness that can help you process it and also provide. A safe space for you to really explore ways to move beyond these obstacles.
Describe in a few sentences what your coaching experience with Jessica has meant to you.
Kristina R: The biggest thing that's meant so much to me with the coaching with Jessica is feeling like there's someone else out there that I can trust and a support system as well as that encouragement, someone who I know. 100% supports me, believes in me, and wants the best in my life. And she also is such an incredible person that I look up to, and she's such an inspiration and motivator herself. And she comes with so many gifts and talents that, uh, she can provide. That I just, um, truly cherish and uh appreciate all the time and that we have spent together and absolutely a better person for having connected with her. I have been able to evolve and grow so much more with her help and her encouragement. And so if you are thinking or exploring ways on how to improve yourself, your life, uh, anything that you have challenges with, Jessica, 100% would be an incredible person to, to have by your side while you're going through your journey.
