Jenna Brocious's story is one that resonates with the beats of perseverance, faith, and transformation. Born into a challenging household marked by the unpredictability of an alcoholic single mother, Jenna's narrative paints a vivid picture of triumph over adversity.
Beginnings and Challenges
While many children find solace in the comfort of their homes, Jenna's early years were punctuated with life lessons of caution, resilience, and adaptability. Despite the turbulent environment, there were moments of warmth, and her mother always made sure her basic needs were met. But beneath these acts of care were deeper lessons on what not to emulate in life; “I always say that my mom taught me what not to do in my life,” says Brocious. These formative experiences instilled in Jenna a drive to ensure that her future would be starkly different from her past. Looking back, Jenna always knew her mother loved her and knew she was doing the best she could, but she was committed to creating a different life for herself and her future family.
The Arizona Chapter
At 19, Jenna's soul yearned for a fresh start. Arizona seemed to beckon to her, not just as a new geographical location, but as a metaphorical oasis of possibilities. Here, amidst the desert landscapes, Jenna explored various jobs and career paths, each teaching her something new and honing her innate entrepreneurial spirit. These roles, ranging from the restaurant industry to real estate, added layers to her evolving identity. “I worked hard for many years and the freedom that came along made it all worthwhile,” Jenna says. Yet, a consistent undercurrent was her refusal to be confined by societal norms or expectations, and a drive to pave her own path and follow her soul’s calling.
Motherhood and Spirituality: The Birth of Her Son and Her Prayer Cards
The birth of Jenna's son in 2015 was more than the addition of a new role; it was the dawn of deeper introspection. Those tender moments of motherhood became gateways to profound spiritual explorations. Jenna's daily practices of prayer and meditation became her anchor, culminating in another birth, that of her Positive Intention Prayer Cards. These cards, infused with Jenna's own spiritual revelations, serve as touchstones of hope and positivity for many. Each prayer card has a different theme or focus, as well as a corresponding Bible verse and prayer; there is one for love, peace, strength, worthiness, grief, happiness, change, and travel.
The intention behind the prayer cards is to be a source of comfort, inspiration, and guidance no matter what someone might be navigating in their life. The cards are easy to bring with you anywhere and the messages are brief and straightforward, so they’re perfect little companions for wherever life brings you and whatever life brings your way. The cards are also beautifully designed and make for great gifts or can stylishly complement a bedside table to coffee table.
Self-Worth and Boundaries
Jenna's childhood, while rife with challenges, also became the crucible upon which her beliefs on self-worth and boundaries were forged. With her mother's tumultuous life as a backdrop, Jenna understood early on the importance of self-preservation and personal boundaries. Her mantra, emphasizing the divine uniqueness of every individual, has become a beacon for many grappling with self-doubt.
It has become Jenna’s mission in life to help everyone know that they are loved and worthy. She is committed to helping others heal, find peace and happiness, and feel loved – and that journey starts with yourself. While community and connection is essential to a fulfilling life, it’s key that people truly learn how to love themselves as well, which is something Jenna is passionate about helping others find. Once Jenna was able to overcome the trauma of her childhood, she found it easier to love herself and others more.
The Role of Spiritual Guides
Though challenging, Jenna's journey wasn't solitary. Along the way, she was blessed with the guidance and wisdom of spiritual mentors. These guides, each illuminating different facets of her spiritual journey, have been instrumental in her evolution. From deep meditative practices to the embracing of universal interconnectedness, they have enriched her path with varied insights. Jenna was also able to tap into the comfort of spiritual guides in other realms through meditation and prayer, a gift Jenna used to feel confusion and some shame around. “I believe my gifts are from God, and a tool to add to my belt. It is a special part of me that I hold close,” she says of her connection to various spirit guides.
In Retrospect
Jenna Brocious’s life, with its tapestry of highs and lows, stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit's ability to not just endure but to thrive. Her story is a beacon, lighting the path for others, showcasing that with faith and tenacity, one can find purpose and serenity amidst life's chaos and that it is truly possible to turn your pain into your purpose.
