Hi, my name is Andrea J and I am a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist, Entrepreneur, and Transformational Life Coach. I am so excited to have you here to learn a little more about me and how I can serve you.
My Story
What do you when you look around and all you see is loss? How do you pick up the pieces and try to move forward with your life when life as you know it has been snatched away from you? Most are told that time will heal all wounds, but I’m here to tell you that while that statement sounds good, it’s not necessarily true.
In my own personal journey through grief, time was not the thing that healed my wounds. My healing came when I made the decision to no longer allow loss to control my future. I realized that I had to face my grief head-on. I did that by enrolling in a grief recovery class and immersing myself in all the class had to offer. I committed to learning and mastering the tools necessary to heal my heart and my thinking.
After having gone through the class and walk out my own personal healing journey, I knew I was committed to this work for life and I begin my practitioner journey as a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist. Not only do I have personal and intimate knowledge with walking through the grief journey; I have the training and education to support it.
I know what it’s like to live day after day in a cloud, feeling like there is not hope in sight. I also know what it’s like to walk in clarity, freedom, and true transformation. It is my sincerest hope that you will allow me to support you on this journey. It is my desire to alter your perspective in the way you see loss. So if you’re ready to take the leap, I’m here to jump in the process with you!
