About

I'm Jasmine. I started this channel from the mountains of the eastern US, but these days, I'm based in Southeast Asia. After living in 7 countries, I've called a lot of places home — a treehouse on an island, various apartments, a rural homestead and an antique log cabin deep in the woods. Each taught me something about what matters. On this channel, we have real conversations about living life on our terms when everything around us seems designed to keep us distracted. I share what I've learned and continue to learn about health, personal growth and unconventional lifestyles — the stuff that requires being honest with yourself, respecting your own boundaries and doing the work most people avoid. I also work one-on-one with people who want support navigating their own path. The link for my coaching services is below if you're looking to reconnect with what you actually want.
