Q and A with Jen from Johannesburg, South Africa, living in Northern Rivers, NSW, Australia
“Healing is not just an individual journey. When one person heals, it ripples out.”
Q: What are you passionate about?
A: I’m deeply passionate about helping women heal from trauma and subconscious conditioning so they can reclaim their safety, power, confidence, and self-worth. My work blends neuroscience, somatic healing, subconscious rewiring (Psych-K), and inner child healing to create deep, lasting transformation.
This passion came from my own healing journey. I spent years trying to “think” my way into healing through traditional talk therapy, but I realized that true change happens on a subconscious and nervous system level. That’s when everything shifted for me.
Now, I work with women who have experienced childhood trauma, narcissistic abuse, and emotional dysregulation, guiding them to break free from survival mode, people-pleasing, and limiting beliefs. My work is a mix of science and soul, and I absolutely love witnessing women step into their power and purpose.
Right now, I’m focused on expanding my reach through my programs, writing resources that make healing accessible, and sharing my message through speaking engagements and collaborations. Healing doesn’t have to take decades—when you work with the subconscious and nervous system, transformation happens so much faster.
Q: What were your younger years like?
A: My younger years were shaped by a deep sensitivity to the world around me. I grew up constantly trying to make sense of the dynamics around me—always observing, always feeling deeply.
In school, I was naturally drawn to psychology, human behavior, and personal development. I knew from a young age that I wanted to understand why people struggle the way they do and, more importantly, how they can heal.
Family and upbringing shaped so much of what I do today. I personally experienced patterns of trauma, emotional suppression, and conditioning that kept me small. It took me years to realize that healing is not just about what happened to us – but about how our body and mind stored those experiences. That realization set me on the path I’m on today.
From a young age, I was driven to break cycles, to ask deeper questions, and to refuse to settle for a life that felt misaligned. That same drive fuels my work today.
Q: What is something valuable you’d like others to know?
A: You are not broken. You are operating from patterns of protection that your nervous system and subconscious mind created to keep you safe.
One of the most valuable things I’ve learned is that healing isn’t about “thinking positive” or working harder. It’s about teaching your body and subconscious that safety is possible.
I spent years in talk therapy, understanding my patterns but still feeling stuck. The moment I started working directly with my nervous system and subconscious mind, everything shifted. Healing doesn’t have to take decades. When you work on a subconscious level, transformation happens faster than you think.
What I want others to know is: Your past does not define you. No matter how much trauma you’ve experienced, you are capable of rewiring your mind, regulating your nervous system, and stepping into a life of peace, confidence, and self-trust.
Q: What does feminism mean to you?
A: To me, feminism is about sovereignty. It’s about women reclaiming their power, autonomy, and self-trust – on every level.
For too long, women have been conditioned to shrink, self-sacrifice, and prioritize everyone else’s needs over their own. The effects of this conditioning run deep—it shows up in self-doubt, lack of boundaries, people-pleasing, and feeling disconnected from our intuition.
True feminism, to me, is about giving women the tools to break free from that conditioning—not just intellectually, but on a deep, subconscious level.
It’s about undoing the internalized beliefs that tell us we’re “too much” or “not enough.” It’s about embodying our worth—not just fighting for external equality but doing the inner work to truly feel empowered in our own skin.
I believe healing is a radical act of feminism—because when a woman heals, she breaks generational cycles and creates a new legacy.
MORE FROM JEN: Yes. Healing is not just an individual journey. When one person heals, it ripples out.
The work I do isn’t just about helping women feel better; it’s about breaking patterns that have existed for generations. It’s about creating a new way forward, where emotional resilience, self-trust, and inner peace are the norm, not the exception.
I truly believe that every person who heals their subconscious and nervous system is contributing to a larger shift in collective consciousness. The world needs more people who feel safe, strong, and sovereign in their truth.
