Embracing Challenges: The Gift of Adversity in 2024

Embracing Challenges: The Gift of Adversity in 2024 Coach Jackie shares why 2024 became her “SmackDown year” and how adversity brought unexpected gifts. After she and her husband paused their nomadic RV life in Gypsum, Colorado, she returned to New Jersey when her stepmom was hospitalized and she learned her dad had early-onset dementia. Jackie became his primary caretaker for two months, learned she couldn’t do it alone, and ultimately helped place him in memory care. She also returned to advocate for her stepmom’s care, helped and witnessed her shift from control to surrender before she passed in November 2024. Jackie then supported her stepdaughter through a surgery after being hit head on the evening of our wedding. Spending 8–9 months away from home helped her deepen her marriage and reinforced her mission to help women release fear-based control.

Welcome to the I Got it Girl Podcast: From Survival & Control to Trust, Love, and the Freedom Life

From Survival & Control to Trust, Love, and the Freedom Life Coach Jackie launches the I Got it Girl Podcast after years as a guest on other shows, sharing her mission to help women (and anyone who relates) feel less alone and move from survival, control, and fear into trust, surrender, love, and joy. She explains how losing her mom at age five and growing up with a busy father and much older siblings led her to raise herself, become fiercely independent, and build a successful life, including a 30-year leadership career in the restaurant industry and funding her own college. Jackie describes how self-development and starting her own business in 2019 helped her release control, receive support, deepen her marriage after years of guardedness, heal abandonment and financial control patterns, and reconnect with a higher power. Future episodes will feature women’s “I Got it Girl” stories and practical shifts into thriving and fulfillment. 00:00 Welcome to I Got Girl 00:32 Why This Podcast Exists 00:59 Childhood Survival Mode 02:56 Becoming Fiercely Independent 04:57 The Cost of Control 06:37 Learning to Receive Love 08:44 Surrender and Support 09:27 Faith and Higher Power 10:20 What You’ll Hear Here 10:40 Freedom Life Invitation 11:51 Final Goodbye For all things Coach Jackie click here You will find access to all my programs, freebies, and ways to create your freedom life!

Magnetic Desires: Letting Go of Survival Mechanisms

Coach Jackie introduces a new weekly “Freedom 15” segment (5–15 minutes) focused on the freedom to be you and releasing “I got it girl” survival mechanisms to move from surviving to thriving. She explains that many survival patterns form in early childhood and shares her own story of becoming fiercely independent after her mother died when she was five, learning to care for herself and working extensively to pay for college. Jackie distinguishes head desires from heart desires and says you can’t be magnetic to true desires while operating from fear, worry, and survival identity (like constant problem-solving). She describes how 2024 adversity—caring for her dad with dementia and advocating for her stepmom in the hospital—forced her to surrender, reduce work, close her membership, and allow her husband’s support, deepening their relationship. She invites listeners to identify their default patterns and shift to trust, receiving, and “we got it.” To check out the Destiny Makers Membership she spoke about in this episode click this link: https://destinymakers.net/dmm2025 00:00 Freedom 15 Intro 01:09 Survival Mechanisms Explained 02:51 Desires Head vs Heart 03:44 I Got It Girl Pattern 06:08 From Fear to Thriving 06:48 2024 Adversity Lesson 08:36 Letting Others Support You 09:54 Find Your Default Pattern 11:11 We Got It Girl Shift 11:58 Wrap Up and Offers You can find all things Coach Jackie, Your Freedom Mentor at the following link: https://destinymakers.net/links This includes links to connect, her small group programs, free intentional goal setting, retreats, one on one coaching and so much more!

Coach Jackie’s Freedom Roadmap (Vision, Beliefs, Mindset, Money & Support)

Coach Jackie shares the origin of her “I Got a Girl” concept, growing up fiercely independent after early loss and learning to survive through control, while realizing that this mindset can block love, connection, and true fulfillment. She explains how many people stay stuck for decades in jobs, relationships, or locations that no longer fit, feeling resentment, frustration, and unfulfillment, and how surrendering control can shift life from surviving to thriving. Jackie introduces how her Freedom Roadmap that she takes clients through was built from seven years of coaching and includes a vision plan, belief plan, mindset plan, financial plan, and support plan tailored to each person. She encourages taking small, stackable steps and emphasizes that action creates clarity and momentum.
