What folks say
Have Your Own Back is a crash course in self-reliance. No one in their right mind would take a long journey into the wilderness without some training about how to care for themselves in common situations in the wild. Think of this course as training for the wilderness that is everyday life. Like the best wilderness preparedness trainers, Jay teaches you the tools for survival and then sets you up to practice with them in a supported environment.

I loved the course! I now find I'm able to check in with myself and know how to ask, answer and act on, "What do I need now?" And in those moments when my children are acting up, I can also pause and ask "what do they need?" without my blood boiling. Because of Have Your Own Back, showing up for myself has clicked in a new and sustainable way.

I've worked with you individually for over a year, and I loved the course because when we work one-on-one we just go straight into focusing on one thing in my life at a time, but doing the Have Your Own Back course was like getting an in-depth tutorial on the bigger picture behind the work we do. It made my own experience make so much more sense! And it also made my own struggles--which tend to feel so personal--feel more universal, and thus easier to work with. The course renewed and deepened my sense of progress in being truly connected to myself.

Have Your Own Back far surpassed my expectations. Jay's no BS approach has helped me connect to myself in a deeper way and gain the confidence to show up and do me, no matter what.
