Description

In this powerful and honest episode of Fit, Fierce, and Fearless, I talk with the incredible Jacq—multi-disciplinary artist, self-published author, performer, and deeply insightful human navigating a season of uncertainty, growth, and courageous self-reinvention.


This conversation is honest, warm, and full of truth-telling about creativity, fear, self-expression, and the importance of community during challenging times. Together, we explore what it means to stay rooted in authenticity—especially when the world feels uncertain—and how art, embodiment, and connection can anchor us through it all.
