Sharing Life lessons through Story telling  

for High school students at Paulus Rajiman School in Bandung Indonesia.

Jess did her Primary education here from year one to six Class of 1996!

This was a long life Dream of Jess' to speak at her old school in PAULUS RAJIMAN

where she was discovered as a singer at eight - this was not just another presentation,

This was a full circle moment to give back to her school in front of her HERO - her choir teacher Ibu Emma Emmelyn. This was special, a core memory. One for the books!

"Seeing you up there, sharing your story, and being the beautiful

person you are, I just know God shines through you. I just know

you were put on this earth to teach and to inspire

girls like me that beauty doesn’t come from outside.

Yesterday something really changed in me."

- Year 10 Student in Australia

Becoming a Super Hero that changes the world! 

Helping kids find their Ikigai, their strengths & their Gifts so they can start

to figure out how they can truly make a difference in the world.

The Japanese Ikigai philosophy is about how to live a meaningful life.

Finding what brings you Joy, what is Important, how to Change the world make a difference and what makes you come Alive - where these all intersect that is your Ikigai.

"Jess presented to the children the concept of Ikigai with the message about each child becoming a Superhero to change the World. This message was well received by the children. Jess shares a special message with the children about how they are special and unique.”

- Chris Burns, Principal of St Emilies in Perth, Australia
