About Jessica:
Jessica Ell is a Martha Beck life coach who helps people make hard decisions, especially the choice to
walk away from something that's good on paper.
It started with her choice to walk away from a scholarship at a top ten law school because she couldn't
"get to yes" with the decision to go.
Since then, her career has included owning a successful real estate office, running communications at a
frontier technology startup, and publishing murder mystery novels on the side.
Now she helps other people make seemingly "ill-advised" decisions that lead them straight to the lives
they're meant to live.
Discover why breaking away from societal norms and pursuing authenticity is crucial for success with the 'anti real estate agent' and motivational speaker Bob Thompson.
Bob shares his unique approach to real estate, emphasizing honesty and authenticity, and recounts his personal journey from a miserable job at a chemical plant to thriving in the real estate industry despite adversities.

Ready to stop hiding and playing small … and start living from the TRUTH of who you are?
Be the Wolf is for high-achievers who are tired of sacrificing for the sake of others, business, and finances.
They’ve done it “right” their whole life, and they’re still feeling stuck, exhausted, and unfulfilled.
If you struggle with burnout, people-pleasing, imposter syndrome, chronic self-doubt, or feeling invisible even though you constantly over-deliver… this show is for you.
What does it mean to ‘Be the Wolf?’
When Yellowstone Park removed the wolves to make the park "safe," the entire ecosystem collapsed. The wolves weren't the problem … they were essential.
The same is true for you. When you hide parts of yourself to stay safe or be liked, the system of YOU gets out of balance, stays stuck in survival mode, and eventually collapses.
Being the Wolf means operating from the wholeness of who you are … because that's when the ecosystem of YOU thrives.
Host Genea Barnes explores what it means to stop performing for approval and start showing up as your full 100% REAL self. Not just the parts you think are acceptable.
Through deep conversations about self-trust, relationships, worthiness, business, boundaries, money, reclaiming your voice, and learning to feel safe in your own skin, you'll discover how to expand your capacity for a life you actually want … without sacrificing joy, fulfillment, and the light of who you are.
Topics include:
This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about remembering who you are.
Because when you stop trying to cram yourself into someone else's tiny box of who you should be, everything changes. Your work and business thrive. Your relationships deepen. Your body relaxes. You finally feel the peace, safety, and freedom you've been chasing.
You weren't meant to hide … you weren’t meant to disappear. You were meant to live from the TRUTH of you.
Be the Wolf.
New episodes weekly. Real stories. Real transformation. Real freedom.
~ When you operate from the TRUTH of who you are, humanity evolves.~
