If you know me, have worked with me or ever been to one of my events, there’s a 99.9% chance you’ve met my mom!!

She is the woman behind (and in front of) every set up, take down and crazy idea I have. She has encouraged me since I was a kid to pursue any passion I have.

When I was 10 and wanted to be squeegee person she said I’d be the best squeegee person ever, and offered to buy me one (but I quickly moved on to my next plan).

Everything I’ve learned about being a good mom, business owner, and caregiver I’ve learned from her. How lucky am I to be a student in the Jean Robles Masterclass of being a good human.

I’ve learned the true meaning and value of integrity through her. I’ve watched her run a business for 30 years and learned the importance of people over profit. And that the relationships you build and foster ARE the marker of success.

Having a good mother is a privilege that I am grateful to be blessed with. I don’t take it for granted. I am who I am because I was raised by a good mother.

Craig used to say to me “seriously Jeanelle, your mom is an angel and has the patience of a saint” ain’t that the truth!!

It’s like God works through her the way she can single-handedly run a business, organize a house, babysit all the grandkids, and still always have time to go for coffee or lunch date at the drop of a dime.

She’s balances wisdom with immaturity as if it was her life’s purpose and it makes life with her that much more fun!!

This is her last year in her 60s. So we got a year to plan a big bash for everyone’s favourite, mystical and magical mama Jean!!

Happy birthday Joyful Soul

Ps Facebook won’t let me add the original song that was on this reel. So picture the video to “Isn’t she lovely” Stevie Wonder. Works much better ;)

03.31.26

Today I had lunch with my family and we celebrated my dad’s birthday.

Then I went to the cemetery and signed the paperwork for Craig’s burial spot!!

Then I went grocery shopping.

Then I came home, had chicken noodle soup and talked to my kids about what we’re going to put on the grave stone.

Life is weird. It’s not short, but it moves quick. In 2 months it will be Craig’s 1 year death anniversary. That’s tripping me out.

I won’t be cliche and say “live your life to the fullest”, but I will say, at least try to live your life as your most realest (self).

Grief came ~ without any warning~ and it forced me to be ME: an unedited, unfiltered version of me! And y’all it’s CRINGE AS F!!

I am a chaotic, creative, over-the-top, weirdo. I talk way too much (or go silent for days). I have big emotions and even bigger ideas. I hug and high five A LOT (then overthink if I hugged and high five’d too much). I make short stories long, and long stories longer. I have a love / hate relationship with all these parts of me. And grief stripped me of my ability to hide any of this.

Sitting in the cemetery today really hit me. I hate to sound morbid here, but we’re all just hanging out before we die. Which is the less poetic version of Ram Dass’ “we’re all walking each other home”!

So here’s my (not so) Pro-Tip from a griever who can no longer give a F••k:

Wear the outfit, write the book, make the post, accept the invite, like your body, start the business, end the chapter, say you’re sorry, say I love you, dance wildly, meet new friends, send the text, sing the song, embrace your embarrassment.

(Then phase 2, try doing it all sober lol)

It’s gonna get hella awkward before it feels natural. But it’s doable. And worth it.

Love you xo

Who remembers the Columbia House CD subscription?

I’m so far into this throwback theme and I just can’t stop!! The nostalgia has fully taken over. So I thought this would be a fun way to show off some of the vendors that will be offering promos for all C+C ticket holders !!

(Click on the CDs and follow their pages)

I’ll be posting each one’s specific discounts this afternoon.

K, but do you also remember the little stickers that came with this and you’d stick them on all the CDs and/or cassette tapes you wanted (but never actually mailed to order)?! Core memory unlocked!!
