Where Have I Been…
How are you? I’m so happy to be back after a little hiatus.
Where have I been?
For the past 5 months I have been moving within… and what does moving within mean?
Well, let’s look back! For the past 11 years I have been serving my business, Simple Clean and Whole. In addition to private one-on-one coaching, I also was planning and leading Shift 21, Truth, Cleanses, and sharing teachings with my amazing clientele!
While doing so, I finished my Functional Medicine Coaching degree which has given me the opportunity to see deeper into the many parts of our life... physical body, nutritional body and spiritual body: The connection between mind/body/spirit.
The connection that is so strongly what we are made of.
Several months ago, this connection propelled me to something that scared the living daylights out of me: Taking time for me.
As in:
no writing
no social media posting
no pictures
no group programs
no fixing
no to do list for work
no timeline (yikes!)
Because, well, I finally decided to listen to my mind/body/spirit that were saying TIME was what I needed. What did I continue Doing? I kept one-on-one coaching, because that is my true passion.
I have to tell you that while the past few months were so fulfilling and clarity-infusing, I was filled with fear before I finally slowed down.
The FEARS?
What would happen to Simple Clean and Whole?
What would happen to my brain?
Would my followers stop following me? (I hope not!)
Who am I without coaching others?
Well, the answer to that one is clear: I am me!
Without the attachments of what I do for others, I allowed myself the opportunity to grow and enter a place of vulnerability. A place that allowed me to stay in the fear/worry/anxiety for a bit... but only to come out of the other side.
(And as most of you know, we never come out of the other side without scrapes and bruises. Life is a work in progress and until we give ourselves the permission to FEEL is when we begin to see our vision!)
Taking that pause led me to some amazing breakthroughs that I know you can have too (if you give yourself the chance)…
Less comparisons to others
More permission to be me through being truth
Lots of vulnerability (with myself and others)
Increase in confidence to stand in my YES
Increase in confidence in standing in my NO
How has this changed my coaching practice?
Lots of lots of shifts. I am able to coach in a way that truly serves the client in diving deeper into his/her own vision. Permission to feel, to be vulnerable, to be honest and to look straight in the mirror and ask:
What do I want?
What is the truth?
What have I been covering up?
What vices do I use that do not serve me anymore?
Is this my life or someone else’s?
I am in the career that feeds me?
I am in a marriage that nourishes me?
What is my ultimate vision and how can I move towards that?
What was birthed these past few months?
Most Importantly: By giving myself the opportunity to reflect, not push, allow the flow, stay in the discomfort of not knowing… and just be… opportunities that aligned with my truth started to come to me! It works I promise!
A opportunity to speak to hundreds of executives in NYC while being video recorded globally in November was presented to me. The topic is “3 Easy Life-Changing Mindset Shifts" and I am SO thrilled to be writing it right now. Public speaking, especially on this scale, has always been an ultimate dream and goal of mine… and the timing is utterly amazing.
An all-new website that better aligns with my current coaching practice and vision: www.JenniferMeister.com

My focus: Is private clients, small intimate groups, and public speaking.
Will I still do cleanses? No. Will I do group programs? Yes! I will continue to do Shift 21 (my Signature program) and Truth to small groups either online, or in-person workshops at studios and corporate settings. I am also getting back to blogging!
What about you?
Is it time to look inward? Is it time to take a pause? It won’t be easy, but it’s worth it, I promise.
With Gratitude for you and for this new season,
