POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
At 40, I’m finally learning I don’t need to have it all figured out to share my story.

Here are 10 things you might not know about me…and If this resonates come join me on this journey as I believe we are here to support each other.

1. I still sometimes feel shame around life being diff than I imagined: not being married, building brand from scratch, not having it all figured out And at the same time, I trust God, I trust this journey, and I refuse to force a timeline that isn’t mine.

2. I battle between wanting to be a SAHM in a quiet village and a super ambitious successful female leader 

3. I learned how to be strong in every way and I still am working on releasing masculine energy even letting others “hold me” I want it and also still have fears around it

4. I believe every single person has gifts worth sharing. I’m really good at helping other people see theirs…and sometimes completely blind to my own.

5. I learned the power of “no and it is one of the greatest gifts I learned… still hard sometimes tho 

6. I never fully felt like I fit into one group…so I started creating my own rooms, communities and villages.

7. I believe deeply in forgiveness AND I believe forgiveness can exist alongside accountability, boundaries and respect. 

8. I trust God with everything. And I see that faith doesn’t mean sitting back and waiting; it means continuing to show up, serve and be the light, even on hard days.

9. As a kid who was “too sensitive” I’ve learned that is actually my biggest strength in life and still sometimes struggle with the old belief and sharing my feelings

10. I start my days with prayer and gratitude. Not because every day is easy, but because I know God is real and I want the way I live my life to reflect that.

I’m still learning. Still unlearning. Still becoming.
And if you are too, come with me. 
I believe we are better together, divinely connected, and that none of us were meant to do this life alone.

Hiiieee - I’m Jaime, a millennial mama who runs on reheated coffee, Hawaiian reggae and my dog park workouts🤣

If you’re new here, welcome to the WAVES wellness village 

This page is dedicated to moms and families and figuring out what real self-care looks like in everyday life. (Not the 2 hr morning routine kind)… the kind that’s messy, doable, and helps you feel like yourself again while still showing up for everyone you love. 🫶

I believe when moms are supported, everything changes. We have more to GIVE! 

And we begin rebuilding what I call a modern-day village in a world that often feels like we’re meant to do it all alone.

A little about me… I’ve been in the wellness space for over a decade as a creator, speaker, and guide. But my real training has been life: navigating anxiety, burnout, and completely losing and rebuilding myself in motherhood. Everything I share now comes from both lived experience and years of studying self-care, nervous system health, and sustainable habits for real life.

Here you’ll find:
• simple self-care for busy, full mom life
• honest conversations about identity, motherhood, and mental wellness
• ways to bring your family into your own healing and routines
• sharing my fave products and go to brands that help wellness
• support so you don’t feel like you’re doing this alone

If you’re here… I’d genuinely love to know more about you 🎤❤️ want real connections and we might become besties or work on an epic project together!

What does self-care actually look like in your real life right now? Be HONEST! 

Mine is simple: quick workouts, staying hydrated, flossing my teeth, breathwork, reading, playing ukulele and going on adventures w my family 🌺✈️🏄🏼‍♀️ by @jaimemcfaden

You remembered the snacks, the water bottles, the appointment, the laundry, the 84 things everyone else needs…

But when was the last time you remembered YOU?

Mama, I see you. ❤️

Sometimes it’s just 10 minutes to move, play, create, breathe… and remember you’re still in there too.

We’re the captains of these little ships: we need filling up too.

Send this to a mama who inspires you. Remind her today xoxo by @jaimemcfaden

Some people are a prayer answered in human form. 

we were never meant to do this life alone. And when we meet those people who remind us who we are - keep them close.

there is someone out there who will believe in you, open a door, make an introduction, sit with you in the hard season, dance with you in the good one… and remind you that you have a village. That no matter what they are going through they will be there right with you 

and sometimes one person changes everything.

send this to a woman you thank God for. tell her now. 

here’s to the village. 🌊

p.s. the beautiful @iamsamanthajoy in this video has  been that for me and tomorrow she’s hosting a FREE webinar at 9am PT. I’ll share the details in my stories. 

She is the publisher of both my books and 50+ other best selling authors. This is your reminder to send love to your bestie today and also lets get locked in and grow together! by @jaimemcfaden

I don’t share this from the other side of it.

I’m still in it.

I lost my job. friendships changed. money got tight. I don’t know how every bill will get paid or exactly what my future looks like.

and yet… I’ve never felt better in my soul.

my faith has never been stronger.

so I’m staying steady like this tree. planting seeds. watering what matters. protecting my energy. letting go of what doesn’t belong in this season.

I don’t know what God is doing yet.

but I trust Him.

and if you’re in the messy middle too, maybe this reminder is for you. 🌱

what are you trusting God with right now?

tell me below. let’s pray for each other. by @jaimemcfaden

My prayer today is for the women of the world. 

May we hear Gods voice louder than anyone else. May we hear over the distractions and the noise. May we remember our strength lies within our love and that same love is what the world tells us we need to keep sacrificing ourselves for. 

In the name of love and I’m here to say I believe motherhood is my ministry and I am thankful to be strong in mind and heart to be so connected spiritually and to have a village and I can only imagine the women who don’t have this and I pray for them. 

I pray that she remembers who she is. I pray that she gets back up and support meets her where she’s at. May God bless her with so much abundance and love so she has more to give 

And I pray humanity. May we remember we are ALL brothers and sisters and we must come together to be the light through the darkness 

The patterns are hard to break but well worth it. 

For generations and as long as I can see women have been put in a position of being less than and it shows even in my own life. 

This is not to shame guilt or call any person or identity out this is to share what’s been on my heart for a decade. Systems are broken and we are living in a time where we can actually do something to be the change. 

I believe we are the change and it’s time we discuss what that looks like. by @jaimemcfaden

Truth serum: life won’t always turn out how you plan. you’ll fall. you’ll fail. You will get hurt. It will be hard sometimes. get back up. try again.

surrender your plans. put God first. keep going. keep shining.

you never know who needs to see your light to remember they have one too 

that’s the ripple. one light reminds another to shine.

send this to someone who needs the reminder today. then go be the light ✨ by @jaimemcfaden
