I was devastated and shocked. After unexpectedly losing my job, I found myself searching for more meaning and purpose. The corporate world had left me feeling empty and dissatisfied, and I knew there had to be more. This journey of seeking led me to follow a calling and curiosity that I couldn't ignore - a water fast. What began as a quest for answers and physical healing evolved into a 36-day water fast, an experience that would drastically change the course of my life forever.
​

During those 36 days, what I experienced was beyond my vocabulary. Profound unconditional love washed through me. I felt an imperturbable peace and a sense of timelessness and presence I'd never known. I tapped into a direct, constant intuitive knowing for weeks on end. These experiences were transformative, but their full significance was yet to be realized...
​

Recovering wasn't just hard - it was the greatest challenge of my life. After the fast, I faced a severe mental health crisis that pushed me to seek help, a pivotal moment in my journey. I wasn't just trying to regain my health; I was fighting to reclaim my ability to function in the world. In my darkest and scariest moments, I discovered a profound truth: I needed something higher to pull me forward. This realization became my lifeline during the eight-year journey of integration that followed. 

During this time, I underwent a profound transformation. The part of me known as "Jackie" died, and I was reborn as Kova, an abbreviated version of my Hebrew name. This wasn't merely a name change; it symbolized my death to an old identity and rebirth as a warrior, aligning me with my true calling. This transformation culminated during the summer of 2020 in Mt. Shasta, where I deeply connected with the warrior spirit, solidifying my new identity.

As I embodied this new warrior identity, I made the decision to support purpose-driven organizations. Working for organizations with higher purposes played a crucial role in my recovery and further development. This phase of my journey was about aligning my work with my evolving sense of purpose and using my experiences to contribute to meaningful causes.

During Boulder Startup Week, I faced a grueling confrontation with myself. Amidst hundreds of interactions and intense contrast therapy, I was forced to confront an uncomfortable truth: I had been limiting myself. My purpose of stabilizing ethical structures suddenly felt confining. This realization was deeply unsettling, challenging everything I thought I knew about my path. As I recognized I wasn't asking enough of myself, I found myself in the uncomfortable space of the unknown. I grappled with the weight of untapped potential and the discomfort of stepping beyond familiar boundaries. It was a painful, yet necessary, period of sitting with uncertainty and dismantling my perceived limitations.

I realized that while I'd been successfully supporting purpose-driven organizations and leaders, the extraordinary experiences, insights, and skills I'd gained called for an even greater impact- a global impact. This revelation pushed me to radically raise my standards for who I collaborate with. The rarity of my journey - the fast, recovery, and successful reintegration - positioned me to operate beyond conventional boundaries. I understood my duty to humanity: to use my unique perspective and abilities to catalyze and guide visionary leaders capable of creating systemic change on a global scale. This understanding unveiled the true potential of my contribution to the world - one that transcends linear approaches and embraces the complexity of transformative change.​

Today, I pour everything I've learned into guiding visionary leaders, building my business with utmost integrity. Remaining highly selective, I focus on the greatest possible leverage points for humanity and the planet. I support carefully chosen individuals in embodying their higher purpose and making unique contributions to humanity. This work pushes the boundaries of what we believe is possible for our world. Through this intentional investment and my continued contribution to a mental health non-profit, I've redefined my path to fully express my greatness and maximize my impact on global transformation.

​My purpose is clear now: I'm here to forge enlightened warrior-leaders who can catalyze global transformation. Together, we're elevating humanity's collective consciousness and creating harmonious systems that honor our highest potential, including better mental health support for all. And we're just getting started...

​I'm driven by a vision of a world beyond our current perception. Through the forging of warriors into enlightened warrior-leaders, we're elevating consciousness and reimagining our systems, creating a reality that surpasses what we now believe is possible. I see a world of unprecedented harmony, innovation, and collective flourishing. As we awaken, integrate, and lead with higher purpose, we continually expand the boundaries of what's possible, remembering and realizing more of our true nature.​
