Josette’s story is a powerful reminder that no matter where you start or what you’ve been through, you have the ability to reclaim your power and rewrite your future.

Josette grew up in a family filled with dysfunction and emotional chaos, and for years, she believed that she was the one responsible for her mother’s pain. Imagine the weight of that belief—feeling like you’ve ruined someone’s life before you even fully understood your own. Josette’s story is one of resilience, self-discovery, and breaking free from toxic patterns that kept her trapped in self-doubt.

Today, Josette empowers women through her signature system, Seasons of the Soul, helping them embrace their true authority and step into their personal power, no matter their age or past struggles.

Key Takeaways from Codependency to Mastery

The Power of Self-Awareness and Healing: 

Josette’s story begins with her childhood experiences of codependency and emotional neglect. Raised in a family where she felt responsible for her mother’s happiness, Josette grew up thinking she was the cause of her mother’s sadness. This false belief led her to seek worthiness in the wrong places—through toxic relationships and people-pleasing.

Understanding the Impact of Toxic Family Dynamics:

Josette shares how her relationship with her mother, marked by codependency and emotional manipulation, shaped her early adult relationships. Feeling the weight of her mother’s emotional struggles, Josette took on the role of caregiver, suppressing her own needs in favor of others. This cycle of people-pleasing led to further feelings of inadequacy.

Transforming Pain into Personal Power:

As Josette faced traumatic experiences, including sexual abuse by her stepfather, she realized that she had the power to reclaim her life. She chose not to remain a victim of her past and sought ways to empower herself through therapy, metaphysics, and personal growth.

The Role of Midlife in Empowerment:

Josette describes her realization that midlife is an arrival point for women—a time when the wisdom and lessons accumulated through the years finally surface. At 47, Josette found herself propelled into a new chapter of her life, one where she embraced her voice and began her work as a self-awareness coach.

Saying Yes to Yourself: Prioritizing Your Needs:

A pivotal turning point for Josette was when she realized that, in order to truly thrive, she had to say “yes” to herself. By prioritizing her needs over the needs of others, she was able to build a life that was fulfilling, both personally and professionally.

Practical Steps to Break Free from Codependency:

For those looking to overcome feelings of codependency, Josette offers practical advice. The first step is to begin looking inward and nurturing your relationship with yourself. By loving yourself deeply and becoming your own soulmate, you can break free from the cycle of seeking validation from others.
