Allow Me to Re-Introduce Myself — Finding Purpose in the Restart

In this honest and heartfelt episode of Coffee Break with Jess, Jess shares her personal journey of relaunching her podcast after years of illness, unexpected delays, and the chaos of 2020. From starting the podcast in 2019 to navigating a pseudotumor diagnosis, COVID-19, and the anxiety that can come with entrepreneurship, she reminds us that God’s timing is perfect even when our own plans change.

This is more than a comeback — it’s an invitation into a supportive, faith-based community for entrepreneurs and anyone rebuilding their life after hardship. Whether you’re a single mom, a multipreneur, or someone feeling called to do something new despite fear and isolation, you’ll find encouragement, practical wisdom, and a gentle reminder that you have purpose and you don’t have to do it alone.

Jess [00:00:01]:
Welcome to Coffee Break with Jess. This is the place to get a much needed break from the chaos of life come together and refill with me. Together, we tackle some hard truths and be redirected to success away from the trauma, pain and upset that we may be feeling. Now I started this as I intended to start this podcast in 2019, literally in November. And 2020 was not the place to, really begin with everything that was happening here in the US with the COVID just getting started and running rampant, really, for the entire year. And here we are a year later and still dealing with the parts of last year. So I actually listened to the podcast, that episode that I did in 2019 November of 2019, and I kinda giggled. Like, I had all purpose to begin this.

Jess [00:01:26]:
Like, it was needed. And 2020 happened. And before that, I was sick. I was diagnosed with a what is called a pseudotumor in my brain. So I had lost years of time. I was focusing on getting better, and I felt like I was right there, ready to go in the 2020 hit. So this is the restart of the Coffee Break with Just podcast. And the series that was supposed to be started last 2019 was the anxiety free entrepreneur.

Jess [00:02:17]:
This was funny to me because as a multipreneur, I find myself with fighting with anxiety. And it's something that has happened for so long, unintentionally. But And last year and even in 2019, I was really pressed, stretched, pulled, to really get out of that anxiety. So the next couple of episodes will dig deeper into that topic of the anxiety free entrepreneur. So if you are being called to be a entrepreneur, if you are a single mother, You're a a mother who is married, a divorced mother, whatever. Your title doesn't matter here. But if you are looking to become an entrepreneur and build a like minded community, You can definitely come here to the Coffee Break With Jess. This series is definitely right on time.

Jess [00:03:39]:
I no matter what our plan is, what our original plan is, it can change at the drop of a hat. Whether it's a good plan or a bad plan, whatever it is, it god has the final say, and his timing is perfect. So this series that is coming up, I will be pouring into it, and I invite you to just come and hang out with me on Thursdays. Let me know your story. Tell me what type of business you're starting, what you're struggling with as an entrepreneur so we could talk about it? Because it is really something that isn't really talked about in the process of entrepreneurship. The most thing that we hear is how much money somebody has made, the millionaire they are, the billionaire they are, how they took $5 and went to their 1st 1,000,000 in 6 months. Not all businesses go that way, and there are some success factors that happen when you have to have a plan? And you can't just have your plan. You have to be in connection, in communication with god when you're building a godly business, when you are building a kingdom based business.

Jess [00:05:06]:
You have it's no longer yours. You are a mere employee in your business because he is the head and not the tail and neither are you. So you have to walk differently when you're starting business, and it's not talked about. The stress, the pain, the tears, the isolation, the the loneliness that you feel when you're building a business and you're trying to do it the right way, the things that you go through are not talked about. They aren't. So this is where we're going to talk about them. We're going to talk about business. We're gonna talk about life.

Jess [00:05:58]:
We're gonna talk about just walking a straight path. Like, These are some hard truths that nobody wants to talk about, but there are millions of people who are suffering from these things. So I definitely want to be your friend, in this process. I want to be your sister. I want to be a part of I want to fellowship with you so that we can build these businesses and not do it alone. No matter what our past has shown, no matter what we've been through, we're going to succeed. We're going to make it through. We will get out of the situations that we're in now that we and that aren't ideal, we will succeed.

Jess [00:06:51]:
So the next couple of episodes, we're gonna be diving into some of the aspects that were given to me when it came to starting a business. People always tell you about you have to get your LLC. You have to get your, business EIN. You gotta get your business bank account. You gotta get all of this. But what about what we have to get the vision first? We have to have the vision to be able to walk forward because our vision, the vision that's given to us, there is purpose in that vision. We have purpose. We have purpose.

Jess [00:07:38]:
You have purpose. Even though you may not feel like it, even though you may wake up and you don't feel the best. You have purpose. And it's okay if you need help. So we're gonna start with that vision, what we do after we get that vision, we have to work the plan. We have to trust that the plan will work because everything works out for our good. No matter how it may feel, no matter how it may look, it's all gonna work out for our good. So I hope to see you next week.

Jess [00:08:30]:
Let me know who you are, where you're at, what type of business you're starting. Let me know. Whatever you wanna pour out because you don't have anybody to talk to, you don't have anybody to listen to you and help you through, I'm here. I'm here. And we're gonna laugh. We might cry. We may, you know, lay out and but we're gonna drink this coffee. You're gonna drink your tea.

Jess [00:09:06]:
We're gonna take a minute. We're gonna bask in the love that the lord has for us. We're going to lay in the sunshine, close our eyes, and we're gonna make it through.
