Episode Synopsis

In this week's episode, Carol speaks to Jacqui Taylor about the Raise word STILLNESS.

Jacqui Taylor is a writer, well being coach and yoga teacher.

Her memoir - 'The Space Between: breast cancer & finding me' - shares her experiences with lobular breast cancer and how a life-threatening illness changes your perspective on the world. Always wanting to share her insights with others, Jacqui coaches clients to take her personal learning, frameworks and principles to support them in their own transformation to get closer to what they want. She relishes working with clients, understanding their complex needs to discover the most efficient path forward.

Her career started as an engineer in corporate sales, before making the bold decision to retrain as a physiotherapist. After running her own private practice for 13 years, she sold the business in 2021. Having embraced meditation and discovering how yoga helped her find a way back into her body after multiple surgeries, Jacqui completed her 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training to further her own practice and to incorporate this into her work with others.

Jacqui now wants to inspire others to be courageous and face their own challenges head-on. She works with others to guide them to create purposeful space to take care of their body, mind and spirit so they can make the greatest impact on both their life and the lives of those around them.

Married with two children and a dog, she loves to be outside and active. Since her breast cancer, Jacqui has immersed herself in her own health, taking a focused approach to her nutrition, exercise, mental and emotional well-being. She is currently working on her next book.
