After 25 years in public education, Jill has decided to use her masters degree and teaching experience to become a personal empowerment mentor. Her memoir published in 2022, entitled ā€œWhen the Apple Falls Far from the Tree,ā€ outlines a lifetime of adversity and the tools she used to make it to the other side. From growing up with chaos in a house of violence, to cancer recovery, multiple weight loss surgeries, a newly sober lifestyle, and a spiritual awakening- Jill feels compelled to share the ā€œgiftsā€ she has discovered along her path of personal growth. She is the creator of the blog site, justbeingjill.com and also writes under the pen name, Margo Reilly. Jill has recently completed a life coach course and soon hopes to be assisting others with their own transformational journeys. Jill is proud to release her second memoir, When You Shake the Family Tree. In her latest work, she details her journey of self-acceptance and healing after learning she was not exactly who she thought she was after taking an Ancestry DNA test.She is eager to share how she navigated her identity crisis in hopes of inspiring others to find their way forward.Jill's Notes from the Sidelines:


Jill's Notes from the Sidelines:

  1. Be relatable. There's no such thing as perfect.
  2. Don't think you don't have a problem just because you're not hurting anyone else.
  3. In all the lessons, there's a blessing.
  4. We have to choose ourselves. All the things that happened with our parents helped shape us, but we decide what we're taking into the future.
  5. It's amazing what happens when we start writing down our stories. The excavation is cathartic.
  6. Get curious about the patterns that are repeating in your family and decide to be the cycle breaker. Speak the shame out loud.
  7. The messy middle never goes away. You're always going to be in the thick of something; you have to rely on yourself and find the wisdom within to get through it.
  8. We all have traumas -- whether it's big T or little T trauma. You have things in your life that you didn't like. Decide what is yours and what is theirs.
  9. Just because they're your family doesn't mean you have to deal with them, like them, put up with them, or open your door to them. Don't feel obligated to anyone.
  10. It's never too late to start the work.
  11. People who think they're sailing through life need to get curious about fulfillment.
  12. Find a community of like-minded people.
