We also discussed how Jane's experience of losing everything when she went through a difficult divorce but how ultimately that forced her to rebuild her life, think about what she really wanted, find her own power as a woman and become an entrepreneur. Jane talks about her ritual of journalling and how it helps her to feel more grounded and connected to herself, how it helped her to trust her intuition more and let go of fears she had while her daughters were maturing. Now that Jane's daughters are older Jane is able to shed some wisdom on how to she has been able to let go of expectations she had for her children, and embrace the adventure of motherhood. With an aging mother who was one of her strongest influences, Jane also discusses the challenge of a continuing to nurture her adult daughters while doing the same for her own mother.
