We had the good fortune of connecting with Jenna Valdez and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jenna, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Starting my business began with my own healing journey. Like many, my childhood was filled with its fair share of trauma which gave me the drive not only to keep pushing forward, but to empathize with others on a deeply personal level. I always knew I had a purpose to help others and that purpose became truly evident when I left the high control religious group I was raised in. I guess some would refer to this period of my early 20’s as “rock bottom”. In my experience, it was more like an Armageddon. I was a single mother at the time and my entire believe system was just flipped upside down. I became determine to find truth and, in the process, I found healing, connection and true purpose. The different healing modalities I discovered kickstarted everything for me. I was able to breathe again for myself and for my daughter.

And then I found Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT). RTT is a specified branch of hypnotherapy that gets to the root cause of our issues. It helped me identify the limiting belief systems I had formed in my early years and to both uproot, and reframe them. If this could help me and after all of the emotional, mental, and religious trauma I endured, I though, “Wow, if only more people had access to this, the world would be a much better place”. It was that realization that inspired me to start Healing With Jenna.

What should our readers know about your business?
Something I always share with my clients is that to find true happiness, they must find their passion. I have found this to be true in both my personal and professional life. When we follow our passion, we allow love to lead the way and we cannot fail. I am deeply passionate about helping people shift their energy and use the power of their minds to get rid of limiting beliefs holding them back in order to reignite their inner power. I approach every session with this intention in mind. This is not just a job for me, but a partnership and getting LASTING results for my clients is the mission. What many don’t realize is that our belief systems are pretty much formed by the age of eight years old. Imagine that…we spend the rest of our lives running off of these beliefs and seeing the patterns play out in our self-esteem, our relationships, careers and all aspects of our lives. Being able to guide people to places they were once afraid of within themselves and watching them transform throughout their journey is the most rewarding feeling in the world!

My work continues to evolve through every session, and I now incorporate energy healing into my hypnosis and coaching sessions. This way, we are approaching mind, body and soul for a full-on transformation. I continue to learn through my clients, that patience and personal development is key to achieving anything in life. It’s like going back to the basics with each session and this inspires me and keep the passion I have for my work alive.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would definitely take them on a hike and show them around the local spots in the area! The trails in New York and North New Jersey are breathtakingly beautiful! There’s something about being in nature brings out meaningful conversation, which I’m all about. Plus, the sense of accomplishment is priceless. Afterwards we’d hit up Dotty Audrey’s, a local spot in Tuxedo, NY where everything is made fresh. They have the best omelets, with greens, house dressing and homemade bread. I love to give everyone a tour of my healing space, chat with the Crystals of Quartz crew downstairs and do a little metaphysical shopping.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I can honestly say that I found my family within the Crystals of Quartz Community. I knew in my gut that I was going to “find my tribe” the first time I passed by, but I realize that it was for more like a soul recognition. The owner, Sydney has a gift not just for building community, but for bringing healers together, including herself, to best serve the community she has created. I am so thankful to be able to call her a friend along with the other incredible healers in her second location COQ “House of Healing”. Light Up You Stars, Raven and Stag, Align With Flow Yoga, and Shanti Massage.
