We’re looking forward to introducing you to Jamie Carroll & Jessica Williams. Check out our conversation below.
Good morning Jamie & Jessica, we’re so happy to have you here with us and we’d love to explore your story and how you think about life and legacy and so much more. So let’s start with a question we often ask: What do you think is misunderstood about your business?
When people hear the word “recovery,” they often think only of the traditional AA model. While that path has been supportive for many, at Recover Inner Truth we’re expanding the definition of what recovery can mean. Recovery isn’t just about abstaining or fixing what feels “broken.” For us, it’s about remembering who you are beneath the stories of shame and blame, and learning how to receive life fully again.
Our approach is rooted in reconnecting with inner truth, with creativity, and with practices that nurture rather than punish. We believe recovery is about wholeness – coming home to yourself and creating from that space so that healing feels less like a fight and more like a return to love.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
We’re Jamie and Jessica, the co-creators of Recover Inner Truth. What makes our work unique is how we bring together energy practices, creativity, and nervous system healing into the recovery space. Rather than focusing only on behavior or symptom management, we help people reconnect with their inner energy, regulate their nervous system, and use creativity as a pathway to self-expression and truth.
Jamie is a Global Holistic Wellness Coach and Certified Reiki Master who blends Reiki, astrology, somatic movement, and coaching to guide people in reconnecting with their Soul’s wisdom. Jessica is a Recovery Coach, Family Constellation Facilitator, Astrologer, and Reiki Teacher who helps women recover their nervous systems and step into lives aligned with freedom and truth.
Together, we’ve created Recover Inner Truth as a space where recovery is not just about what you leave behind, but about what you awaken to within yourself. We’re especially excited about our free weekly sharing circles for women, where participants can connect, express themselves, and remember who they are in a supportive, creative community.
Amazing, so let’s take a moment to go back in time. What relationship most shaped how you see yourself?
For us, it wasn’t a single relationship, but the understanding that the world itself is our mirror. Everything we encounter – people, experiences, challenges – reflects back aspects of ourselves, both the parts we love and the parts we resist or judge.
Once we truly embraced this perspective, we began to see that every interaction has the potential to teach us, to reveal our patterns, and to help us know ourselves more deeply. Life, in essence, is constantly holding up a mirror, showing us our own reflection, and offering the chance to grow, heal, and align with who we really are.
What’s something you changed your mind about after failing hard?
We’ve realized that there is no true failure. What we once saw as “failing” is really life showing us opportunities to learn, adjust, and realign with how we want to show up. When we act with awareness and intention, rather than forcing or judging ourselves, we see that there’s no absolute right or wrong. There is alignment and being out of alignment, balance and being out of balance, and every experience simply reflects where we are and invites us to grow.
Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. What important truth do very few people agree with you on?
We believe that we are responsible for everything happening in our lives. That’s both the good news and the hard news. Your happiness, joy, and peace are entirely within your own control – they can’t be found or handed to you from the outside. Once you own that truth, it’s incredibly empowering, because it means you don’t have to wait for circumstances, people, or external validation to create a life you love.
As Richard Rudd insightfully states:
“This human tendency to look for outer causes for our moods is the greatest addiction on our planet. It is rooted in an essential core belief that we are victims of our material reality. This core belief sets up a low-frequency pattern that is reinforced over and over again. In other words, with this inner attitude at the fore, we become caught in a web of our own making.”
Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. What do you understand deeply that most people don’t?
We understand that we are not our experiences, our past, or the labels we attach to ourselves. So much of life is spent believing our stories around our successes, failures, roles, and identities, thinking these define who we are.
But when you step back and see yourself as separate from these constructs, you realize that your true self is far bigger, freer, and more creative than anything you’ve experienced or labeled.
