If you’re on your own healing journey or feel sensitive to these subjects, we encourage you to listen with care and take breaks if needed. As always, your well-being comes first.
In this powerful and heartfelt episode of Pockets of Knowledge, host Desiree Stanley sits down with Jessie Torres, a peak performance coach, life strategist, and certified meditation instructor who brings a wealth of personal experience and professional expertise to the conversation. Jessie’s story is one of resilience, transformation, and fierce grace, shaped by childhood abuse, domestic violence, profound personal loss, and, ultimately, a journey of self-discovery and healing.
Jessie shares how these life experiences led her to uncover the hidden patterns and beliefs formed in childhood, which often hold us back as adults. Through her Fierce Grace coaching method, Jessie helps clients rewrite old stories, heal unacknowledged pain, and build emotional strength so they can step into their full power.
