Take me through the process
YOU ARE THE IDEAL WOMAN FOR THIS JOURNEY IF YOU .....
ARE A WOMAN WORKING IN A HEART-CENTERED PROFESSION AND ARE EXPERIENCING OVERWHELM AND IT'S STARTING TO HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON YOUR WELLBEING.
ARE A WOMAN WHO WANTS TO WORK IN A HEART-CENTERED CAREER AND NEEDS SUPPORT AROUND CLARITY - CONFIDENCE - AND COURAGE TO PURSUE HER DREAM. Your current path is unfulfilling and you know you are here to evolve and have a profound impact on the world.
ARE OPEN AND WILLING TO LEARN HOW TO CREATE A LIFE OF GRACE AND EASE USING METHODOLOGIES THAT COMBINE TODAY'S MOST CUTTING-EDGE SCIENCE AND PSYCHOLOGY WITH UNIVERSAL AND SPIRITUAL LAW.
FEEL CALLED TO DO WORK IN THE WORLD GREATER THAN YOURSELF BUT GET OVERWHELMED WITH TRYING TO BALANCE IT ALL.
ARE A NATURAL-BORN LEADER AT HEART BUT STRUGGLE TO EMBRACE YOURSELF AS SUCH.
YOU ARE HARDWORKING but are holding yourself back, thinking of what could be, not allowing yourself to evolve, or believing you can have what you really want. You may be feeling a lack of confidence in yourself but feel that you could thrive with the right support.
ARE WILLING TO TAKE ACTION. All you need is loving guidance, accountability, and a like-minded community to keep you on track.
YOU ARE A SELF-DIRECTED LEARNER - WILLING TO CARVE OUT TIME TO LEARN, GROW, AND TRANSFORM EVEN IF you don't believe you have the time or the energy to do one more thing. Your heart is telling you to do it anyway. Your happiness and wellbeing depend on it.
You are willing to trust in the guidance this program provides.
What got you here will not get you there. TRUST the process.
YOU HAVE DONE SOME HEALING ON YOUR OWN: Heart-Centered people have a story that requires healing. You have started this journey on your own and are motivated to be accountable for your own transformation.
Some examples are: you have studied self-help books or personal development books, watched YouTube videos, you have been in therapy, you find yourself struggling to put it all into action. You want a step-by-step system that can be modified for you, by you.
ARE READY TO TRANSFORM YOUR SURVIVAL STORY FROM VICTIM TO VICTOR. You are ready to forgive the past and use your story for the greater good. You are willing to believe and to trust that you can have a positive impact on your own wellbeing and that you can also transfer that healing to those you love dearest and to humanity as a whole.
THIS PROGRAM IS INSPIRED AND ENDORSED BY INTERNATIONAL HEALERS AND LEADERSHIP EXPERTS.
LOVE IS THE BRIDGE BETWEEN YOU AND EVERYTHING
WHAT IF everything you are going through right now is leading you to a dream bigger than you can imagine?
WHAT IF you could create the life you WANT, doing work you LOVE, have a profound impact on the world, and still have time for yourself?
WHAT IF you could do this with grace and with ease?
IN THE WOMEN'S LEADING THROUGH THE LENS PROGRAM YOU WILL LEARN HOW TO...
EMBODY Self-Love as the foundation to living and leading a heart-centered, soul-inspired path.
Without internal unconditional self-love, you will always be looking outside yourself for happiness, approval, and acceptance. Your heart-centered path will be LESS about people-pleasing, co-dependent relationships, and exhaustion. Embodying love of self aligns YOU as the center of your own universe and allows you to transform with grace and with ease.
LEARN THAT YOUR SOUL IS YOUR AUTHENTIC YOU.
When you are experiencing overwhelm, heaviness, emptiness, or worry, you are really experiencing a disconnection from your true self. You are out of alignment with who you are.
This program allows you to transform your energy and come TO your day FROM love VS. seeking it outside yourself and always falling short.
LOVING SELF-RESPONSIBILITY AND SELF-ACCOUNTABILITY IS SELF-LOVE
Part of loving ourselves deeply IS LEARNING HOW to show up for ourselves and others from a place of responsibility and accountability vs obligation and burden. MASTERING the art of KNOWING yourself deeply, and prioritizing your values and truths will free you from emotional burdens and will allow you to give from your heart without sacrificing who you are. IMAGINE walking in your own powerful truth - owning your life and creating more of what you want because you are not worried about pleasing everyone else.
Testimonial -"I was the walking dead before joining this program. I dry drunk while white-knuckling my life.
Now, I have a soul-inspired business selling products that facilitate the healing of those who are traveling a spiritual path.
I wake up each day feeling like I matter and I am living my passion. This program saved my life." ~ Jeanine Zuckerman, Recovering alcoholic
MASTER the mindset and the skills needed to wake up motivated and inspired to take on the day.
Testimonial "I had a job and earned a decent living before joining this program. Yet, I was so stuck and unfulfilled. Now, I wake up every day knowing that I am love and from there I have all I need to take on whatever my day brings. I am working through my people-pleasing tendencies and becoming clearer about my souls' purpose. My mindset gives me the motivation to stop procrastinating and take action towards creating soul-inspired work where I can earn a prosperous living doing what I love while providing profound service in the world." ~ Krystyna Nicolls - August 2020
CREATE with deliberate intention for the future.
"This program teaches the art of setting intentions and manifesting them into action through energy management. Jody provides the structure, support, and accountability needed to help you shift the wiring of your brain, transform your past, and create your future from the inside out.
'I am a soul in a body with a mind.' My mind is no longer able to derail me from my dreams. My life is transforming and I am becoming my soul-inspired purpose. My heart-centered nature is about holding others accountable with love, versus creating co-dependency through my people-pleasing and over-compensating. I was exhausted before this program. Now I am vibrant and alive. I have created choices for myself within employment options. I no longer settle for less than I am worth.
Thank you, Chance for Change
Thank you, Leading Through the Lens of Love." ~ Caitlin

SCIENCE-BASED CONTENT
~ FEAR VS. LOVE ~
LOVE IS THE ENERGETIC FREQUENCY YOU WILL LEARN TO LIVE FROM IN THIS PROGRAM.
There are only two emotions you can live from - Fear or Love.
Fear = Heavy
Love = Light
In order to live and lead from a place of love, you must understand what it means to be love.
The starting gate to your energy is the way you think and feel. Your belief system is what triggers your thoughts and emotions. Your thoughts and emotions create your vibrational frequency (this is quantum science). MOST people cannot live from a high vibrational frequency because they have brains with belief systems that keep them stuck in worry, frustration, anger, numbness, guilt, and shame. These emotions are all low vibrational frequencies... and are why you feel heavy in one or more areas of your life. We will give you the roadmap to mastering your energy so that you will be motivated to master habits and skills that allow you to live in a heart-centered way without sacrificing your own truth.
YOU WILL BE LEARNING HOW TO...
- Hear your intuition (soul) speak through your body. (the physical home of your soul)
- Use your body to read your energy ("Am I expanded or contracted?")
- Use your mind to listen to your souls' intuition versus taking action from your brain, which is designed to operate from fear.
COMMUNITY
Wrap yourself in loving and healing support. This powerful vortex of the collective will energize and lift you - especially when you do not think you can keep going. You will be held in the arms of love.
LOVE is the most powerful vibrational frequency a human can experience. In this program, you are going to learn how to love yourself first. All other abundance is created in your outer world from the frequency you live FROM.
If you do not love yourself... you cannot create more love and abundance in your life. It's the Law of the Universe.
We will teach you how to love yourself so you can live in a higher vibrational frequency, even on your hardest days.
In the Women Thriving Program, the community is a space for creating the Power of Love within the collective. You will no longer feel like you are doing this alone.
You will have a place to come to when the world wants to keep beating you down. Your community is your place to heal - and to transform - so you can transcend into action.

MEET CORINNA BADORE Entrepreneur
April of 2020
"The Women's Thriving Program is the very best course for me to have enrolled in as an adult with debilitating chronic illness, a busy Mom, and an Entrepreneur."
In the Women Thriving Program, I have gone from running on the empty feeling of nothingness to being entirely satisfied with my efforts and the way life is unfolding for me. I have stopped feeling numb in my day-to-day, and have gone to feeling more vibrant and energized.
I’m learning to live in a higher vibrational frequency, which is allowing me to be the happiness and love that I’d been surviving without.
I’m learning to dream of the exact life I want and to live in the feeling of that life as if it’s already happening for me. I’m gaining strength in my skills, knowledge in my healing, and seeing the power I have in my choices and in the way, I communicate with my inner self as well as others.
I went from dreading my days to planning them with routines and rituals that better support the new life I’m creating for myself.

MEET KRYSTYNA NICHOLS Management and Marketing
August of 2020
"When this program popped up on my FB feed, I was immediately drawn to the prospects. More grace and Ease. Yes please!!!"
Transforming my Fear through the Lens of Love has forever changed me.
I was stuck, I was sad, I felt helpless and alone and at the end of my rope.
I thought about my decision for a couple of weeks before, finally, grabbing the bull by the horns and saying “YES” to a new chapter!!
NOW, in just a short time, my cloud has lifted. I am able to see, for the first time in a very long time, the beautiful woman that I am and all I have to offer the world. The modalities in the program are amazing and work so synergistic with each other. I truly feel like a different person. The person I am meant to be! I have dropped many old habits that no longer serve me and I have made room for new ones that propel me forward. I am able to look at myself in the mirror with confidence and a knowing that I am here for a purpose, as I pave my new, brighter path in this world. With love and so much gratitude, thank you to Jody and all who help facilitate this beautiful program.
To those on the fence... Stop thinking and start taking action. You came here for a reason, and the time is now.
Love Krystyna
MEET TANYA -
Health and Healing
August of 2020
"Hi, my name is Tanya. When I saw the advertisement to join this program, I clicked, I received a notice I qualified, and then I almost sabotaged my opportunity... letting my mind run the show."
Do I have the time?
What if I fail?
What if it’s not what I thought?
What if it doesn’t work?
And then, In the guest room where I was preparing my "No Thank You," I listened to Jody on one of her Live training sessions talking about fear. I realized all of my thoughts were drawing on past experiences and literally pushing me to do what I had always done. The way Jody explained it: it turned on a light in my soul and lit a fire in me.
In that moment, I stopped listening to the voice in my head and followed my intuition - which I now know is the inner guidance system that I had been ignoring.
I started in Women Thriving in August, and my life is transforming at a steady pace.
Our group of sisters is a force to be reckoned with. The power of love is always leading.
I just can’t believe how wonderful it has been. I mean, the course and my own inspiration to learn about oils and the knowledge of herbs.. is all coming together and I’m no longer concerned with the how.. it is happening.
I don’t feel bad anymore for the choices I’ve made. I know that it is those experiences that will allow me to help others... it wasn’t wasted time. It helped me develop understanding and deeper wisdom.
Please use this... as someone who came from feeling very hopeless and lost and stuck.. like I was damaged somehow.. my life is forever changed and every day I feel stronger, healthier, and more in-tune with my intuition and purpose.
It IS possible to change and reclaim the life we are meant to be living.
Tanya
SAYING YES TO YOURSELF IS THE GREATEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVE....even if you don't think you can.
Hello, My name is Caitlin. Corporate Management and Leadership.
BEFORE Leading through the Lens of Love I was going through a dark time. Uncertainty, overwhelm, worry, and feelings of depression and anxiety were plaguing my life. I was feeling heavy and had no idea how to help myself. I was a doer of everything - wanting to be everything to everyone.
Saying yes to the Leadership Program started as a struggle…. My fear tried sabotaging me at every corner. I won't have time. Is this a scam? What if I don’t get in? What if it doesn’t work? This all sounds too good to be true?
I said yes anyway, and I am so grateful I did. In just a few short months I am alive again.
I am reconnected with myself and my creative spirit. My life has completely changed for the better. I take better care of myself because I am inspired and motivated to do so. I get more done and I have more fun.
I used to stay stuck in my head. Now, I have more flow in my life. Decisions are made from my heart. I have learned to hear my intuitive self. I am creating my life from the inside out. My outside environment is changing because I am changing.
Jody is an authentically real person. She shares her deepest struggles, and how she overcame them. She models the process and use of the program for her students using her day to day life.
She is patient and kind - passionate and loving.
She knows how to take complex ideas and teach people how to use them in their day to day lives in easy to follow, practical ways.
Dearest Sister
THE TIME IS NOW.
My name is Janean -
Bach Flower Healing Practitioner
47 and stepmother of 4.
Before coming to this program I had lost who I was as a woman.......actually, I should say I lost my humanity. Yes, I felt in-human, struggling in every area of my life - Just 3 months sober I was a sick, dry alcoholic! White knuckling my days. Lost, alone, angry, hurt, and ashamed of who I was.
This program has given me exactly what I needed to turn my life around. The right information, at the right time, with lots of opportunities to practice, and a support system unlike any other.
I have the tools to stay in my center - even through the death of my father, I did not stray from my path.
The deep self-love and courage this program inspires are profound. I now know that if I choose and love myself, everything else will follow.
Say yes to yourself... As Jody is always telling us - we are lovable, we are worthy, and we are enough - and this program is here to help us believe it.
Sincerely,
Janean
