Jackson is on top of the world. And you would be right. While the creator of BossBride. Charreah K. Jackson: When life gets real, you just flow with it. Everything else is just secondary to that. Around through , I went to about nine funerals in a year and a half.
Fortunately, I have a big family and a lot of older relatives. So I saw all of these people at the end of life and saw what was important and what matters. And it just made me aware of how precious life was and put me on a quest to find out who I was. Her Agenda: Most definitely. Funerals have a way of putting life in perspective. What else was going on at that time?
Jackson: There was a lot going on β I got a promotion at work, I moved, just a lot of external change made me crave some sort of stability. And I realized it would be me who created that stability. So I went through some personal development training and did Momentum Education in New York and it definitely was a catalyst for me. It was a life-changing experience for me and helped me identify roadblocks and blind spots in my life.
Even though I was doing a lot of things, I was exhausted. I was living at this rapid pace. So last year was probably emotionally one of the most cleansing years in a lot of ways. It asked a lot out of me, but it was also probably one of my biggest growth seasons. I fell in love with myself and have the courage to let go of anything that was holding me back. Really investing myself and developing a real support system for my emotional well-being was really helpful.
What is your advice for people facing those same challenges? Literally I got the contract for my book the same day I broke up with my boyfriend of seven years. I really surrendered my life at a higher level to God. Jackson: You are it. You are enough. I am enough. I have enough. Everything else trickles from that β God is love, I am love. Everything I would say comes back to that core experience.
