Hey everyone, I’m Jamie and I wanted to introduce myself.
I’m an RN with a background in youth/adult mental and behavioral health.
Long before I became a nurse, I noticed something that hasn’t really gone away - strong, capable, good people struggling with stress, overwhelm, disconnection, and low self-worth, often without understanding why it’s happening or what to do about it. I’ve felt that way too, and I didn’t like living that way or seeing how often it gets accepted as “normal.”
Through both personal experience and my work in mental and behavioral health, I’ve learned how connected our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health really is. Habits, stress, beliefs, resources, relationships, and how we respond to adversity all shape how we feel and function. No part of life exists in isolation. Avoiding what’s uncomfortable to look at or work through while expecting to get to the root of an issue is unrealistic, and often it’s the things we avoid that eventually show up as illness or deeper struggle.
In traditional healthcare settings, we often have very little time with people, yet some of the most meaningful change happens when someone is actually seen, understood, and worked with holistically.
That belief is what led me to create Empowered Mind, Empowerful You, and offer supportive, educational groups focused on stress regulation, emotional awareness, habits, communication, and learning how to SHOW UP to life with more clarity and intention. These aren’t therapy groups or quick fixes, simply spaces for learning, reflection, and real conversation.
These groups work best for people who want change and are willing to engage in it. You don’t have to have it all figured out, just be open to looking inward, learning new perspectives, and applying what resonates to your own life.
I’m here to connect, learn, and build something genuinely useful, especially within our local community. I’d love to hear:
• What kinds of groups would you actually find helpful?
• What would make you consider joining one?
• What tends to get in the way - time, cost, comfort level, past experiences?
Thank you so much for reading. I really appreciate spaces like this and the conversations that can happen here.
