Journey by Joel Jackson

Journey by Joel Jackson

Hey, I'm Joel Jackson. I'm an avid adventurer and an award winning storyteller, sharing with you a monthly family friendly short story that I've written while on the road accompanied by weekly personal excerpts from my journal series that I've titled 'A Page A Day' . The short stories are gentle fictional journeys, an antidote to anxiety and an imaginative, playful chance to indulge your escapism on your morning walks, daily commute or as you tuck into bed. While the 'Page A Day' series aim to inspire, motivate and fuel your everyday personal ambitions with stories and allegories lifted directly from my personal journal routine of writing a 'Page A Day' to fuel my own growth, healing and discovery. I can't wait to share these journeys with you, as together we explore forays in fictional Spanish towns, heroic deep sea fishing adventures and stories to salve the balms of loss and heartbreak, there truly is something for everyone and I hope to inspire you as you meet your next challenge with a wonderful healthy dose of optimism and wonder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey wonderful people,


Hope you're well and the week was a winner or you're gearing up to take on an exciting few days ahead.

Here's an excerpt from my diary titled, "The Power of Character". An idea of adaptation through empowered identities to move us through our daily challenges, however big or small. It's a great idea, nothing new, but it was great to put it into my own words.


Hope you enjoy it and thank you as always for l...

The Joy of Consequence, after watching my sister, her husband and their kids for the past few days it was fascinating to look at how they shared consequence and reward with their children. The idea of delayed gratification and achieving a set goal is something I'm continuously fascinated with because all too often in my industry the goal posts are continuously being shifted and increasingly hard to aim for. But if we can set oursel...

A reflection on my experience watching the live musicians bring to life the score of the smash hit Max Martin musical, "&Juliet".


It was utterly mind blowing and their teamwork, dedication, attention to detail and effort was astounding.

It inspired me for my efforts moving forward while on tour for Black Swan State Theatre Company performing Barracking for the Umpire around Western Australia and I hope there is something th...

An excerpt from my journal, April 5 2023.


From a time when I was being exceptionally clear about what I wanted for myself in my future because the present was a little murky.

No doubt we've all questioned the direction of our travel, the course that we choose and at this time last year I was doing just that.

I'm so glad though in 2024, I chose to use an excerpt from my diary from almost exactly a year ago to reflect on how far ...

An excerpt from my journal, March 11th 2024.


We all inhibit our own growth, potential and excellence in some way shape or form.

We inhibit the potential to connect on a wonderfully deep and empathetic level with those around us because of the nature of modern intrusions.

Why not step back, assess what it is that stops us from fully engaging with tasks, fellow humans and our goals and be done with it?


With this episode, I in...

An excerpt from my journal, March 6th 2024


The self pity party that is conjured up when indulging the sensation of lack is woeful, it swallows me whole sometimes.

But in recognising this pattern and the minds' traps, I've made some notes about how best to acknowledge it, act upon it and finally look past it.

Hope the insight and the offerings helps you on your own quest and discoveries.

An excerpt from my Journal, March 1st 2024.


Taken from the pages of Jack Carr's book, following the adventures of an ex Navy Seal the words 'fast is fine, accuracy is final' haunts my moves.

In such a wonderful way, might I say. Do it right the first time, but also be incredibly clear about the path you choose.


Find your target, assert the path and dominate the course of action. Fast is fine, but your targeted accuracy of a...

A reflection on how chaos is calming, natural and absolutely necessary.

A hopeful way to appreciate change when you're experiencing flux, knowing that it is exactly what we were created to do.

As all things about us change and develop and grow. A thrillingly natural sensation and gift. Enjoy the change.

Here's a little allegory to sweep you into the week ahead or to help you capture the week that was.

I've always been curious about the science of manifestation and the power of resonating with your ambition, dream and actions; maybe my words can't capture my own imaginings and thoughts in this episode - but I tried in my journal on the 9th to speak some kind of truth into it.
