Thank you for coming!

I'm a traveler, writer, and teacher dedicated to inspiring positive change through storytelling and authentic relating.
Welcome to Intentional Steps! My name is Jessica Jaye (call me Jaye). I'm determined to live a healthy, happy, and carefree life. That means doing work that inspires me.
In 2021, I walked away from my life in the United States to connect with nature and myself. Since then, I've found a general sense of peace and wellness. As a person who once struggled with PTSD and an Anxiety Disorder, this feels like the biggest win of my life.
Along my travels, I've investigated topics around mindfulness, social and emotional wellness, healing from trauma, and peace. As a result, I now share what I've learned through writing blogs, a book, and my podcast! Support my craft by donating or subscribing for weekly or monthly updates.
