Hey, fabulous!

I’m Jax-short for Jackie-a 47-year-old midlife mom, corporate escape artist in the making, and professional life-juggler straight out of Cleveland, OH. I’m so thrilled you’re here! If you’ve ever looked around and thought, “What’s next?” in this wild midlife adventure, you’re in the right place. Together, we’re going to figure it out, and spoiler alert: it’s going to be amazing.

For 25 years, I rocked the “Mom of One” gig, raising my incredible son solo while juggling work, life, sports practices, family vacations, and those chaotic, key-losing moments in between. (Seriously, I’m convinced my car keys are plotting against me!) With a business degree from Cleveland State University and a real estate license under my belt, I built a steady career in banking-enduring more corporate meetings than any human should.

But now that my son is grown and thriving, it’s my turn. Yep, I’ve launched myself headfirst into midlife reinvention. This chapter is all about rediscovering who I am, embracing new dreams, and, frankly, having the time of my life.

So, what have I done so far to reinvent myself?

Well, let me tell you:

• I’ve lost over 130 lbs. the last 2.5 years during perimenopause (while juggling anxiety and antidepressants-fun combo, right?).
• Paid off over $32,000 in bad debt as a single mom in less than two years, all while living paycheck to paycheck with a son in college.
• Increased my confidence and completely revamped my skincare game and switched up my hair color and improved my style-I’m all about feeling fabulous in my own skin.
• Expanded my social circle, making amazing connections with like-minded women who inspire and uplift me every day.
• Created this blog, social media profiles, newsletter and community of women who are also on a midlife journey and awakening.
