Seen & Heard in Philadelphia

Jessica has appeared on PHL17's Positively Philly to talk about stress, self-care, and the importance of slowing down.

Meet Jessica

I'm Jessica Hallahan, MPH—speaker, author, and founder of Journey To Yourself.

My work started with a simple question:

What happens when we actually slow down long enough to take care of ourselves?

Today, I bring that question into workplaces, classrooms, and communities through practical, interactive conversations about stress, communication, accountability, confidence, and safety.

I'm building JTY around one big goal:

Becoming Philadelphia's Stress & Safety voice.

Drink the Coffee While It’s Hot
Drink the Coffee While It's Hot

A reminder that life isn't something we should rush through, waiting for the "right time."

Jessica's book encourages readers to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and recognize the small moments that often get overlooked when life gets busy.

Sometimes you don't need a bigger life. You need to actually be present for the one you're already living.

What Our Clients Are Saying

  • Fantastic Experience

    Our team had a fantastic experience with Jessica leading us through a workshop on the topic of stress. She shared thoughtful, impactful content and created a safe space for vulnerable conversation. Every person on the team commented (unsolicited!) about how much they enjoyed the session and appreciated the time with her. We'd highly recommend working with Jessica!

    -Katherin Daniel

  • Efficient and Packed with Valuable Information

    Jessica provided the six-series stress management workshop for our staff of 20 over the course of six months. She also included opportunities for our staff to have 1:1 confidential coaching sessions when she was on-site delivering each workshop.

    The sessions were not mandatory to attend and we tried to include incentives for staff to attend the first session by providing lunch, however, it was not needed. The content was perfect for the staff, and we had consistent attendance throughout the six sessions. Our staff generally found the workshops to be helpful and some staff who were not scheduled to work that day came in any way for the sessions. The best part for me, as the employer, was the length of time of each session. They only lasted for 45 minutes and were packed with valuable information in a short span of time.

  • Amazing Podcast Experience

    I was recently a guest on Jessica's podcast Stress Less with Me Jess and had a terrific experience! Jess was such a wonderful host! She instantly put me at ease from the moment we said hello. Jess is personable, genuinely interested, and engaged in the conversation, and has a wonderful ability to guide the conversation at just the right pace to have the biggest impact on the listeners.

  • Workshop was Genuinely Life-Changing

    Jessica delivered! She was so great, and such a natural speaker. I thought I already knew all of the techniques to managing stress, but Jessica gave me tools and that I will use for the rest of my life. Her examples and life experience made the workshop not only fun, but very meaningful. There were times when the whole room was touched by her words, and other times when she had the whole room laughing. I was truly amazed by this experience and I would highly recommend her for any type of business or team. I don't know what else to say other than the experience was genuinely life-changing!
