Life is unpredictable. One moment, you’re building something beautiful—a business, a family, your dreams. The next? A storm hits. And suddenly, you’re fighting just to keep your head above water.

Jana knows that feeling. She'd lived it. In the past 5-10 years, she's faced more than she ever thought she could handle— letting go family and friends, death, experiencing betrayal, divorce, trauma, violence, shootings, robbery… Moments that could have broke her.

But here’s what she's learned: storms don’t have to sink you. Then again… maybe they do!

Jana shares when, how and why to let go… of who, and of what.

This episode will leave you feeling encouraged because.. you WILL rise, you can rebuild, and you CAN thrive through the hardest seasons of your life. It’s true. Her testimony is living proof.

And that’s exactly what this podcast is all about.

Host Jana Marie is not a professional speaker, just a real person who’s been through the fire and came out on (and in some ways still coming out) the other side. As a glassblower continues to refine their masterpiece by dipping it in the fire until all the imperfections are gone, so are we being refined in the fire.

This episode begins sets the stage for the authentic, untouchable conversations we SHOULD be having—the truth about sustaining your personal and business dreams through life’s hardest seasons. And it begins with Jana’s story.

Jana goes down deep under the surface about who she has been up until this point, what she struggles with, she shares a bit of her personal stories and what her turning points were to change her entire life for the better (mostly unwillingly, until she jumped ship), some of the best advice she’s received these last few years and what her goals for this podcast are.

With a powerful, authentic and vulnerable intro for Episode one, you’ll surely be left with a mix of emotions from feeling in awe, in shock, empowered, encouraged and excited for what’s to come in the next episodes.
