JESSICA R. SCHULLER
My connection to creativity
From childhood Jessica has always felt connected to creativity. This still remains true, however she’s since developed an even deeper understanding of what it means to be creative. This awareness started to take shape during a very specific time in her life.
​
For several years Jessica dealt with debilitating chronic pain. It left her feeling isolated and distant from the world. She kept much of this to herself, as she struggled to articulate what she was experiencing. It was during this time that art started to take on a new meaning. What was once an outlet for design only, became sacred ground for healing. Creativity gave Jessica a sense of purpose, when much of it had been lost. It provided her the ability to express herself without concern for words. It was a refuge from the pain, a place of peace and calm. Ultimately creativity helped to shift her health, leaving a deep and lasting impression. It made her aware that this same potential was available to each of us.
​
Jessica has since devoted herself to the practice of creativity through coaching. She’s passionate about restoring its value within society, and believes it’s one of our greatest allies in the pursuit of a more balanced, joyous, and fulfilled life.

I loved being introduced to new avenues of self exploration.
