    Finding Purpose After Loss: Grief, Spiritual Awakening, and Soul-Level Alignment with Jacqueline Jenson | 076
    2026/04/14
    In this deeply moving episode of Resilient A.F., Blair sits down with Jacqueline Jensen, an award-winning speaker and certified Akashic Records practitioner whose life took a sharp, unexpected turn after profound personal loss.Jacqueline’s story is one many listeners will feel in their bones. After leaving a successful legal career, she found herself navigating layered grief: caring for her sister Elizabeth, an oncology nurse who passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2019, followed by the deaths of her mother and grandmother in close succession. Add a hysterectomy and a complete identity shift, and suddenly the question becomes not “What’s next?” but “Who am I now?”Spoiler: this episode does not offer tidy answers. It offers something better. Honesty, spaciousness, and permission to rebuild from the inside out.Blair and Jacqueline dive into the raw, unfiltered terrain of grief and transformation, including:Leaving behind a career that no longer fits after lossThe cumulative weight of grief and how it reshapes identityNavigating medical trauma alongside emotional lossSpiritual awakening as a response to heartbreak, not a bypassWhat “soul-level alignment” actually looks like in real lifeHow to stay present when the future feels impossible to imagineThis conversation is a reminder that grief doesn’t just break us; it can also initiate us. Into deeper truth. Into purpose that feels aligned, not performative. Into lives that honour what we’ve lost while still making room for what’s possible.If you’ve ever felt like loss cracked you open and left you wondering who you’re becoming, this episode will feel like a hand on your back saying, “You’re not doing this wrong.”Sponsorship opportunities: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15oZsxAigvb6e4wbAmvW_El_1_laeyK4shMY1md6zVWI/edit?usp=sharingSubscribe to our Substack: https://theglobalresilienceproject.substack.com/Buy our books: https://theglobalresilienceproject.com/books/About the Guest:Jacqueline Jenson is an award-winning speaker, certified Akashic Records practitioner, and lifelong intuitive who’s been chatting with angels since childhood.
