How did Jen Aks transform rock-bottom self-doubt into embodied wisdom?
Jen Aks, creator of The Power of Gesture, shares how her struggles with traditional education and self-belief became the foundation for her spiritual awakening. Her Birth Card, the Four of Clubs, reveals her gift as a wisdom keeper and framework builder, while her Jack of Spades Personality Card reflects her magic as a creative spiritual initiate.
Guided by Alexander and Viki, Jen uncovers how her Saturn and Pluto Cards, the Four and Eight of Spades, shaped her lifelong challenges with belief systems, and how she turned those challenges into her three E’s framework — Embody, Empower & Elevate.
From a pivotal moment when she declined an invitation from JFK Jr. to discovering Howard Gardner and Daniel Goleman’s multiple intelligence research, Jen’s story shows how creativity and self-trust can become the path to freedom.
