So you finally choose truth over comfort…

You walk away from what no longer fits—

The job, the relationship, the way you’ve been performing in the world—

And then what?

In this raw, unfiltered solo episode, I take you inside the messy, often invisible chapter that comes after choosing yourself. The part no one warns you about. The abyss. The unraveling. The awkward, unglamorous rebuild.

This is the part where you’re no longer who you were, but not quite who you’re becoming. And it takes everything: trust, discernment, patience, nervous system resilience, and a deep honoring of your own pace.

We talk about:

• The emotional whiplash of the “trust fall”
• Why choosing truth often makes life harder before it gets easier
• The sacred pause of the abyss (and why it matters)
• How to navigate the urge to “go back” just for comfort
• Reclaiming your voice and creative expression after burnout
• The real work of rebuilding in alignment—not urgency
• Creating a shame-free space for women to be witnessed in the in-between

This episode is for the woman standing at the edge, the one who already jumped, or the one wondering if she’s the only one who feels like everything got harder after doing the “right” thing.

You're not broken. You're becoming.

In today's episode, you’ll learn how to lead from your truth and create a soul-led life, even when it defies logic, and the path forward is unclear.

If you’ve ever felt like your way of being doesn’t fit into the conventional molds of business or life—or if you’ve been called to live in deeper alignment with your own truth, this episode is for you.

Jak Shaw is here to share her journey of building a 7-figure spiritual mentorship business, unschooling her children in Costa Rica, and deepening her marriage after rupture—all through radical devotion to her inner knowing. Jak is a mentor and spiritual teacher who activates her clients’ deepest wisdom, guiding them to live unapologetically in their truth. Through her work, women experience profound transformation—not by following rigid frameworks, but by returning to their own knowing.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How Jak embraced her 6-line Projector energy to lead unapologetically and soulfully in her life and business
• Her journey from traditional business models to living and leading in full devotion to her inner knowing
• How she navigated financial uncertainty and leaned into trust when there was no evidence
• The sacred journey of rebuilding trust and intimacy in her marriage after infidelity
• Her experience with unschooling her children in Costa Rica and living life on her own terms
• The process of writing her book, staying true to her story, and refusing to dilute her truth—even when others told her to

This isn’t about following someone else’s blueprint. It’s about tuning into your own divine wisdom, reclaiming your truth, and trusting it so deeply that it becomes your guidepost, no matter what the outside world says.

You’ll walk away from this episode inspired to honor your own knowing, embrace the unknown, and lead from a place of full embodiment.
