I have the incredible opportunity to sit down with Jackie Culley, my mother. In addition to being an amazing mom, Jackie is a philanthropist, yoga instructor, home builder, interior designer, and business owner. She has experienced significant hardships, including the loss of a son, and is currently building a home for a family with a terminally ill daughter without spending any money of her own. We discuss the origins and evolution of her nonprofit, ‘Christmas for Cancer Families’, and delve into her unique spiritual journey. Topics include the importance of trusting oneself, overcoming burnout, the impact of community efforts, and reflections on spirituality and life’s purpose. This heartfelt and candid conversation reveals the strength and resilience of an extraordinary woman and offers profound insights into the power of love, generosity, and self-discovery.00:00 Introduction01:55 Philanthropy and Nonprofit Work03:15 Building a Home for Brielle05:54 Challenges and Burnout06:33 Spiritual Promptings and Community Support14:37 The Impact of Giving and Personal Growth20:37 Authenticity and Self-Discovery35:23 The Power of Service and Networking38:34 Overcoming Self-Doubt38:49 The Power of Small Goals40:12 Transformative Fitness Journey41:16 Bodybuilding Competition Experience44:19 The Impact of Loss48:40 Questioning Religious Beliefs53:36 Embracing Individual Spirituality01:11:57 The Importance of Wonder and Exploration01:13:00 Living a Life of Purpose01:14:15 Final Thoughts and Farewell
