FACILITATOR BIO
Facilitator: Jessica Garver, Speaker • Coach • Nervous System Strategist • Vegetable Whisperer
Jessica helps creative entrepreneurs and visionary leaders move out of survival mode and into stability—so they can build success that actually sustains them. Her work blends emotional intelligence, nervous system healing, and body-based practices to help people restore capacity, rebuild self-trust, and rewire the deeper patterns that keep them stuck.
When she’s not deep in a coaching session or untangling a metaphor with suspicious ease, Jessica can be found pollinating ideas across Substack, co-regulating with her houseplants, or circling the kitchen like a very focused bee. She believes rest is sacred, listening changes everything, and that your nervous system deserves a seat at the strategy table.
