In this episode, I sit down and chat with Reiki Master Porsha C. Jackson and she shares with us her story of how she became her biggest wellness advocate and took charge of her health!
Porsha C. Jackson (she/her/hers) is a Certified Usui Reiki Practitioner and Holistic Wellness Coach from Oakland, CA. Her business, Wellness By PCJ, is both a personal healing testimony and a platform to educate and encourage those most affected by health disparities on how to
reclaim and preserve their health through simple, affordable, holistic and sustainable wellness solutions. Porsha helps clients improve their well being from “The Inside, Outside and Beyond” - the inside through diet and nutrition, the outside through movement, stretch and flexibility, and beyond through Reiki energy healing, meditation and breath work.
Porsha’s journey to health and wellness started in 2019 while grappling with a 3 month, life altering health scare. Sick, tired and in pain, Porsha decided to unsubscribe from the suffering by becoming her own champion for healing. She turned to holistic and ancestral healing practices and committed herself to living a happier, healthier and stress-free life. She converted
to a plant-based diet and a regular fitness routine, prioritized rest and stillness and adopted a daily practice of mindfulness, gratitude and spiritual grounding. Porsha’s commitment to growth and healing changed her life both physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. In 2021
Porsha launched Wellness By PCJ to provide hope, encouragement, resources and support to others, especially for those within BIPOC or underserved communities.
Prior to her career in wellness, Porsha was active in nonprofit and community engagement work. She received a Bachelors of Arts degree in Public Relations fromThe University of Southern Mississippi in 2006. Porsha is currently studying Nutritional Counseling and Stretch and Flexibility through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM).
