happy new year

I don’t really like all the “new you” talk that we hear at the start of the new year.

I have no interest in re-inventing myself anymore.

What I want to do is to peel away the layers of protection and the (self) judgements. To be curious about and to discover what is already inside of me, what has ALWAYS been there.

To soften into that and to trust that, rather than forcing something else.

To celebrate WHAT IS about me and about my life.

To choose to be me, faithfully. Each and every day. One day at a time. One choice at a time.

To trust who that is, to love who that is, to accept who that is.

To live and to shine from THAT place.

I hope you will do the same.

Happy New Year.

Hi, I'm Jess!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I’m a runner, a coach, and an artist whose work’s purpose is to celebrate and encourage others on the run. I started running over 20 years ago when I signed up for my first marathon, and since then it has become an integral part of me and how I live my life. Running changed me in ways I never could have imagined, and has continued to lead me down a path of personal and professional growth and self discovery. On this blog I love sharing stories about my journey, talking about the lessons I’ve learned along the way and connecting with all of you. Thank you for being here!
