Finding the right counselor makes a difference, and truly a special thing to find someone who truly cares. From the very beginning, I felt heard, respected, and understood.

Thank you Fern! "Easy to be hard, easy to be proud" great song! 😁 I'm so glad you liked my Women's Lib Sux recording. And yes indeed, women don't realize that the feminine power is one iota stronger than the masculine. Therefore she can relax on her throne and allow him to serve her. And yeah, the mature masculine is a whole different animal, compared to the mature masculine. A man in the mature masculine energy (a man like you) knows how to lead without being a bully knows how to lead without being a bully. Thank you for you Fern, my favorite neighbor!

I’m so extremely grateful that when I saw a post to do a zoom call to make into a documentary that It was a sign from God and gave my goose bumps from head to toe!! I am a victim and a survivor of domestic violence and rape by my ex narcissist who traumatized me and has made me fear for my life! I didn’t get justice, I got more traumatized going back to court for a very long time and each time re living my horrific attack and re living everything in my mind and seeing my attacker in person!! The Stare of Washington gave my attacker a plea deal that I was against from the very beginning and also was unaware of! He got 60 months which is 5 years and he’s only going to serve 2 years because of time served and good time, so he will be out soon!!! I have a restraining order on him but at the time this happened I had already had a restraining order on him and you can clearly see what good that di!!! So I have started my own petition to change the laws for perpetrators to get longer prison sentences and to help support the victims and survivors!! Please reach out to me on Facebook (Christina Reynolds) if you would like the link to sign and share my petition to help make a difference!! Who knows it could happen to you or someone you love. I also want to thank Jane from my heart & soul for doing what she does to spread awareness about domestic violence and rape and to also help and support any victims and survivors and offers her skills and knowledge and experience and support!! Please reach out for we ALL need to SUPPORT one another!!💜🫶🏻

Jane moves thru core concepts quickly and is giving great information that is honest. If you do not make time to do the homework, you may be missing out on the best benefits of all that are just for you. I really love how direct she is.

I just finished listening to Jane’s audio recording on Amazon: Women's Lib Sux and it is so powerful. She teaches what it means to be in touch with your feminine and masculine in all sorts of unique ways. My favorite was the Snake Prince Story. I am going to listen to it again!!

Thank you Denise! I'm so happy that recording was helpful for you!
