Turns Out Joy Can Exist When It's HARD
For those of you reading for some time, you'll know that I have been training for something called 29029. Essentially, climbing the equivalent of Everest in vertical feet in 36 hours.
do you want the breadcrumbs or the entire loaf of bread? Say no to the breadcrumbs.
You know that feeling of wanting "more" but you're not exactly sure what "more" is? This can look different ways to many of us - it can be a yearning, it can be a whisper that there's something more fulfilling or it can BE a nagging that you know there's something bigger out there for you.
FACTS OR FAITH?
Someone said to me at the end of 2023 that "Facts are Reality" and he went on to explain that we had to look at the "facts" of a situation to avoid any emotion about it, to accept reality. It's taken me awhile to chew on this BEcause, when it was said to me, it rubbed me very wrong.
IF IT HURTS, IT NEEDS TO HEAL
I'm probably in one of the toughest periods I've been in for 7 years right now, personally. It's almost as if everything I used to know to BE true, isn't. Since the Fall, I've questioned my intuition greatly…Situations/people/places that I was sure there was alignment, I was mis-guided. My intuition was off on a number of new hires, on areas of where my heart was open to love, on attractions I've had, on starting new initiatives that didn't turn out as predicted.

The Awakened Corporate and Conscious CEO: My Process to Intention Setting & a Word of the Year! The day after Christmas, I went to a location outside Denver and essentially locked myself up in a cabin for a couple days to focus on my intention and goal setting for...
The Conscious CEO & Awakened Corporate: F*** Constricting Yourself
by Jennifer Peters
We do it & we do it often. It's so subtle at times, it's mistaken for being coy or demure or even gentle. Constricting is the subtle sister to playing small. It's when we constrict ourselves to just be the 95% of what we typically are when we allow ourselves to...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: The Single Entrepreneur
by Jennifer Peters
As we entered 2019, I had that melancholy feeling of being single again. If you're single, you likely know what I mean. And then it was my birthday in February. And now we're coming up to our two year anniversary of the business and I want to share that with someone...
Ain't No Standard High Enough…
by Jennifer Peters
I recently attended a Tony Robbins conference which was on my bucket list. He's insane and I'm addicted to him but I won't regurgitate all of the conference. But there was something he said that blew my mind. He talked about having high-self esteem means you have...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: Loss & Gain, Death & Resurrection, Closing & Opening
by Jennifer Peters
I've not written in awhile. In part due to that dreaded word "busy-ness," but also a hibernation period. The last couple posts created a stir in my family & I was tested. So I hibernated. But, how can I write about speaking the truth, and then go into hibernation?...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: When you speak or live your truth, you're bound to upset others
by Jennifer Peters
What often keeps us paralyzed from doing the things we really love, or from saying what we need to say is that we're afraid of other's reactions. Sometimes, when you are truthful, others can wrap you in a warm embrace and while they may not agree, they "hear" you....
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: Liberate team members, by losing others
by Jennifer Peters
So, I was going to release a separate blog post but the last couple weeks we have had some changes that feel relevant to write about. We had a team member whom, in my heart, I knew wasn't working out. However, I saw a lot of this person in myself at a young age, I'm...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: Your Passion Isn't Perfection
by Jennifer Peters
I want to tell anyone out there pursuing their passion a big lie somewhere along the way I'm sure someone (maybe it was "THEY") told me: If you pursue your passion, it will be perfect & you'll love every aspect, every day of it. It's 100% false. Just like I'm sure...
The Conscious CEO & Awakened Corporate: A Team is Not Just a Team – Serving them, Serves Me
by Jennifer Peters
I thought writing a blog post about my team would be cliché. Like "oh, of course I have to mention them." But for a couple weeks now I've been wanting to somehow incorporate the team into an article without it being some wonky write-up about how great the team is. A...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: Seasons – Nothing You Feel Will Last Forever
by Jennifer Peters
It's now end of July and we've been open 3 months. I can't believe it – in so many ways. There were DEFINITELY times when I never thought we would open. I mean, just last July, my business was in the back of my car, driving from Farmer's Market to Farmer's Market...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate: What Makes You Cry Won't Kill You
by Jennifer Peters
You know that saying, "I'll die of a broken heart" and you cry and cry for hours. And then you wake up the next day and essentially wish you were dead from all the pain and crying? Ya, that's what I thought would happen after many men. (I was going to type each name...
Honoring the Space Between No Longer and Not Yet
by Jennifer Peters
It's been awhile since my last blog. With good reason. In my last (the first) post, I wrote how I was frustrated because we hadn't found our location. And so I wrote a company Manifesto. And I was doing my BEst (see what I did there?) to honor the…"space between no...
The Conscious CEO & The Awakened Corporate
by Jennifer Peters
This is my first blog post of The Conscious CEO. It kinda feels like giving birth. Ok, really, I have no kids so I don't know what that feels like. But it does have this feeling of being eager to "pop out" something that is precious and lovely enough like a baby. And,...
RELATING: HOW WE CONNECT, COMMUNICATE OR UNDERSTAND OTHERS
By Jennifer Peters
How we speak our truth, hold back, interpret other's actions or words…How simple and innocent actions, emoji's, texts, words, tone, phrases, teasing can inadvertently create giant assumptions and/or conversely how we attach meaning to these things.
BET ON YOURSELF
By Jennifer Peters
When I started Just BE in 2017, I couldn't get a loan. I couldn't get an investor. I had friends that told me I wasn't just nuts, I couldn't do it. I had potential landlords tell me no way they would rent to someone who didn't have experience in the industry & to go get a job at a restaurant.
Are you ready for the Experience?
by Jennifer Peters
READY FOR THE EXPERIENCE. Last night I posted on the Gram about the desires that we want but may not BE prepared to do what is required of us to truly experience those desires.
