The Truth of Who You Are with Fiona Jacob

On this episode of Unbroken, Fiona Jacob and I talk about my favorite subject: the field of possibility that is within all of us. That connection we all have to infinite universal intelligence, peace and well-being. Fiona shares about her journey to coming to understand and trust this intelligence, and also what she does when she happens to fall out of the awareness of it.[Programming note: There will be no episodes of Unbroken next week (July 24 and 27) while I take a quick summer break. Back to twice-weekly episodes again starting on Monday, July 31, 2023.]Fiona Jacob’s greatest passion is to take an uncompromising stand for people’s greatness, waking people up to who they really are, no matter what they are up against in life right now or what has happened in our past. She facilitates explorations with Leaders, Coaches and Healthcare Professionals to create insight and transformation, unlock their greatness, access their innate, limitless potential and help them show up fully to the world as their truest self in every moment.  Her educational background includes an MBA, a Masters in Coaching & Behaviour Change, Certified Master Transformative Coach and a Certificate in Professional Supervision. She is also an RGN with 20 years’ experience as a Nurse Director in hospitals internationally.   You can find Fiona Jacob at FionaJacob.com and on LinkedIn.You can listen above, on your favorite podcast app, or watch on YouTube. Notes, links, resources and a full transcript are below. Show Notes* Being held hostage in Iraq in 1990 * Experiencing profound peace during that harrowing experience * Waking people up to their own innate greatness * The value of ‘soul listening’ * On the ‘magic’ of connecting to the alive, creative essence in all of us * Finding our way back to what we already areResources Mentioned in this Episode* Michael Neill * Interview between Bill Cumming and Michael NeillTranscript of Interview with Fiona JacobAlexandra: Fiona Jacob, welcome to Unbroken.Fiona: Thank you. It is an honor to be here. Thanks for the invite.Alexandra: Oh, you’re so welcome. I’m so excited to be speaking to you today. So why don’t you give us a little background? Tell us tell us about yourself and how you came across the Three Principles.Fiona: Sure. Well, I’m a 50, something on my mind. I am from Ireland, as you can probably hear in the accent. I have lived all around the world, including the Middle East for 25 years. My background is nursing. But what I have done and what I’d love to do is lead transformational change in organizations, which I’ve probably done for about 15 years of my 25 years as a director. I’m also a very quiet academic. I’ve done a couple of masters in the background just to kind of keep things ticking over. But don’t tell anyone. It’s our secret. And how did I find the principles? Great question. So I did not find the principles, the principles found me. And I’ll explain because I think it’s important, I think many listeners will have maybe not the same experience, but they’ll have had experiences in their life where they’ve experienced something that comes from nothing in the moment that has really, really helped.When I was 25 years of age, I was a very young nurse, I worked in the operating room, and myself and my best friend went to Iraq, as you do.
