Jessica St.Germain
Transformational Meditation™ Coach
My spiritual and coaching journey has spanned many cities and countries around the globe. As most good stories go, mine has many interesting twists. Here’s the edited version…

I grew up in Minnesota, went to college at UW Madison, fueled airplanes in Antarctica, studied Acting in Sydney, worked as an actor in Los Angeles, studied coaching with Dr. Libby Adams at the Academy of Self Knowledge, moved back to Minnesota, had two kids and became a TV Host for a home shopping network. 

While I was in this last job, I knew I wasn’t living my purpose. My soul was calling and I knew I had to get back into coaching. The “whispers” were getting too loud to ignore. I had to get back to my purpose which is helping people realize and live their purpose.

Whew, that’s the short of it. Currently, I live in New Zealand with my husband and two kids.

Jean Marchand
Transformational Meditation™ Coach
Jean has been a Meditation teacher, Financial Advisor, and Trader for over 45 years.

Entrepreneurs, Advisors, and Traders hire Jean to gain greater Clarity, increased Motivation and more Self-discipline to up not only their professional game but their personal life.

Because after years of doing what these individuals do for a living, they are feeling complacent, a lack of fire in their belly for their profession and are struggling with the uncertainty of the current world order which creates either a conscious or unconscious fear that results in slow and uneasy progress and not going with the flow.

So Jean helps them get into alignment with what they truly desire and need, to achieve greater success both professionally and personally and overcome any fears that are holding them back.
