Hi, I’m Jael (pronounced J-L), founder of Rise to Realness and I help you build life-giving communities around your brand. I’m one of those introverts who loves people, and also spends her birthday reading a book while enjoying a cup of coffee… ALONE, ha!

So why the hell should you listen to an introvert like me about building a community? Because community has saved me time and time again. Through my experience, I’ve learned the immeasurable value of a supportive community, I understand the foundation of a strong community, and I see the power and possibility of a life-giving community for you and your audience.

There is only so much we can accomplish alone. I am here to help you get intentional about bringing your audience together to experience the synergy of being in community. Whether you call it synergy or straight up the Holy Spirit, there is fresh energy that arises when we come together.

Think about a time where you walked into a room with a game plan, collaborated with others, and you all came up with something completely different, a new idea that was beyond what you originally walked in there with - that’s the magic of working in community.

Navigating change is hard, and when you or your clients are seeking transformation, moving from point A to point B, they need the support, accountability, relatability of others going through the same difficult transformation. Groups are powerful. Community is transformative.

What you do matters, and I whole heartedly believe that as business owners we are all called to serve others - people are the foundation of our business. The way our clients can achieve greatest transformation and reach their fullest potential is in a supportive, life-giving community. So I ask you this - what type of community are you building?
