1. “I’ve always been sort of obsessed with doing things differently. And I think it comes from being a really rebellious teenager.”
From a young age, Jaz felt an inner rebellion against societal norms. She shared how this rebellious streak has shaped her life, pushing her to challenge conventional ideas of success and carve her own path. Her journey reminds us that questioning the status quo isn’t just rebellious—it’s essential to finding what truly resonates with us.
2. “I realized that if I was going to just maintain an online presence, I was going to have to figure out a way to do it sustainably.”
Jaz’s battle with workaholism led to burnout, forcing her to reimagine how she approached her business and success. Here, she shares the raw reality of maintaining a digital presence while preserving mental health. Her shift toward sustainable success has become central to both her work and her personal well-being—a lesson for anyone struggling to balance ambition with self-care.
3. “Creativity has always been that thing for me... when I think about the times where my intuition is so on but so wild and untethered, it’s when I’m being creative.”
Creativity isn’t just about producing something tangible—it’s a portal to deeper intuition and self-connection. Jaz speaks on how tapping into her creative instincts allows her to live more authentically and intuitively. For her, creativity and intuition go hand in hand, reminding us all that our most intuitive selves are often found in moments of untamed creative expression.
4. “If you think that I want to marry you because of how much money you earn, then you shouldn’t marry me because that’s not why I want to marry you.”
This moment with Jaz’s husband was a turning point, encouraging her to rethink her relationship with work, money, and personal worth. His words pushed her to seek help and realize that her value wasn’t tied to productivity or income. It’s a powerful reminder that true partnerships—whether personal or professional—should be built on mutual understanding and support, not societal expectations of success.
5. “Living intuitively wild, at the moment, has come down to centering creativity in my life because creativity comes from intuition.”
At the heart of this episode is the idea that living "intuitively wild" means grounding yourself in creativity. For Jazz, this creative energy fuels her intuition, guiding her to live a life aligned with her true self. By centering creativity, she invites us all to let intuition lead the way toward a more fulfilling and authentic existence.
