Friends, I had the privilege of having Jesse Golden on the podcast last week, and let me tell you, Episode #102 is FULL of golden information.  We chat:

🌟 holistic skincare - duh.  She is the founder of the incredible brand @thegoldensecrets 
🌟 affirmations and why they have the power to change your life
🌟 self-worth and how it can be a catalyst for physical healing
🌟 the cross between skincare and self-worth
🌟 Gua Sha - what is it and why is it so freaking important if you want to slow down the aging process...
🌟 Jesse's book "The Golden Secrets to Optimal Health"
🌟 and so much more... you are going to fall in love with Jesse if you aren't already following her

I've now been using her skincare line for several months (my husband keeps stealing my oils, too) and I have to say, it's NEXT LEVEL (most of it is in my hospital bag as we speak so I can have it handy in labor and delivery). I have the Youth Beauty Face Oil, the Aura Mist, the Goddess Gua Sha, the Body Gua Sha, the Heal All Oil, and the Golden Vibrating Wand (my gosh, if you want to see small forehead wrinkles disappear... buy this like RIGHT NOW). I've done several reels with Jesse's line and will continue to do so because its a staple in my beauty cabinet. 

✨✨✨ Use code: JACLYN10 for 10% off your next order.  So many of you who have bought from the Golden Secrets recently have dm-ed me telling me how much you love the line. - That makes me SO HAPPY! Episode 102 is streaming everywhere. ✨✨✨

They also use sustainable practices and truly give a F about their employees, customers, the environment, and their brand ambassadors. I’m a lifelong fan.

How I Financed My New Record

I’m really excited to share this video with you!  It is all about how I financed my new EP. 


​​​Sometimes sharing financial information is considered taboo, but I don’t care.  I want YOU to know that there are creative solutions to every problem if we stick in there long enough and if I can do it… YOU can, too.

As you already know, I’m committed to being transparent and to storytelling my way through life, because there is so much to learn from one another.  This video is no different.  My hope is that it lights a fire of belief under you to pursue whatever it is you want to pursue.

You DEFINITELY need to watch this video if:

  • You have a dream that you don’t know how to finance
  • ​​​​​​​You feel stuck and unsure of how to move forward toward your goal(s)
  • You are tired of making excuses and you want to take action
  • You want to leverage a new kind of currency that is ALWAYS available to you

​​​​​​​Creating these blogs and vlogs about my life so liberating.  I feel like I’m learning so much about myself as I share the details with you.  Thank you for learning with me.  I so value you!

If you like the video, please leave me a comment.  I LOVE hearing from you and answer every comment I receive. 🙂

Light, Love, & Peace,

Jaclyn Steele

p.s. I’ve been listening to the podcast “Armchair Expert” with Dax Shepard.  It’s funny, as you would expect, but there a​​​​​​​re also a lot of wisdom nuggets in there.  Just FYI. 🙂

p.p.s.  I have a show at Smith’s Olde Bar in Atlanta on November 30th.  You can get tickets here if you’re in town!

    What a beautiful story about being at the right place at the right time. On a broader level that of following our dreams in every moment and going to dinner where you are guided to go etc. Meeting Owen was a key point for both of you. What a blessing. We never know where or when we will make connections that are waiting there to be enjoyed. We cherish our meeting you and Sam in such an amazing universal fashion, You are treasured by all those you meet and we are blessed to be in your family circle.

      Kathleen, I feel the same way about you. You and Michael changed my life in so many ways. You painted a picture of hope and love and belief that I hadn’t seen yet. I love you both so much and will FOREVER be grateful for knowing you. <3
