About jehlisah rae

Growing up, I always felt I was made for more. There was a passion and drive within me that wouldn’t allow me to put in less than one-hundred percent effort into everything I did.  That doesn’t mean I was perfect, or life was full of rainbows and butterflies, but it does mean I wouldn’t settle for a life of mediocrity. Knowing there was a greater purpose for me, I put myself through college – earning a Master’s in Social Work – and discovered a love for healing and helping people any way I could.

Exercise and fitness played a huge role in how I got through my young adult life and I discovered that I could use that medium to help others with their own trials. I taught online fitness classes and grew a social media following where I really connected with moms. When my husband and I suffered through miscarriages and infertility issues, it was those moms that surrounded me, supported us, and really listened when I needed a friend.

Becoming a mom – despite trying for so long – was not all rainbows and butterflies. My mental health struggles became a hundred times worse and I felt so alone at times. There were days I couldn’t bring myself to shower and I found myself consumed with all these questions. Who am I now that I have a child? What’s important to me? What are my goals? And how do I figure all of this out with a toddler needing me constantly?

I embarked on my own journey of self-discovery which led me to where I am now. I’m an entrepreneur who wants to bring clarity and joy back to moms. I want to reach a hand out to other moms who are asking themselves those same questions I asked while the first year of motherhood consumed me.  I want to help those moms who helped me. I want to help them realize they are more than a mom and that there is life outside of motherhood.

As I’ve walked down this road of inner exploration, I’ve learned and grown and remembered that I’m not just a parent – I’m a person. And it is my hope and goal to help every other lost mom remember that they, too, are more than a mom.
