  What We Resist Persists: Jackie Shea on Change, Surrender & Self-Compassion

  Sep 29, 202651 min

  What do you want to embrace and what are you scared of embracing? I’m talking with trauma-informed health, life, and business coach Jackie Shea about change, the ones we are forced to navigate like health crisis and the changes we run towards. Because either way - change is hard! We need self-compassion, trust, and a willingness to surrender to what is not in our control. Jackie shares her “year of resistance,” when a serious illness dramatically changed her life and forced her to let go of the future she had imagined. We talk about our discomfort with uncertainty and the ways we support ourselves so we can move towards not knowing, where transformation happens.
