“Everything you do has the power to make an impact on someone.”

Jessica has been a friend of mine for over twenty years, and while we have many memories together, there were still things I learned about her through today’s conversation.

Jessica is a family support services coordinator in Nevada, but that’s not the career path she was always on. Today she shares how one dinner table conversation with her then 12-year-old daughter led her to the career that she now loves and cherishes. Jessica also talks about her childhood, and her experience with her parent’s divorce and how that impacted her.

Jessica is a thoughtful friend who shares many of her life lessons and tactical tips on how to make others feel special. I hope you find connection through our conversation.

• Jessica’s story and background.
• The impact Jessica’s parent’s divorce had on her life and who she is today.
