Jennifer Eales is an embodiment of the Way of 'Unconditional Love & Forgiveness,' making it not just a philosophy but a lived mantra that permeates every aspect of her life. This profound commitment to love and forgiveness becomes evident in real-time, particularly during challenging moments in life.. Jennifer's remarkable capacity to navigate breakdowns, leading the way back to love, guides through pain and confusion, ultimately fostering peace and connection.


As a co-founder of PIRS, Jennifer brings a wealth of skills acquired through her extensive education and professional background. With two decades of experience as a practicing attorney in California and Oregon, she blends legal acumen with a deep understanding of human dynamics. However, her journey extends beyond the boardroom, as she shares a personal story of transcending and recovering from active addiction. This transformative experience serves as the foundation for her role in guiding others seeking sobriety on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels.


She has also been on a journey to heal her own trauma, healing through Internal Family Systems therapy, the 12-steps, and somatics therapy.  She is currently studying to become a Certified Somatic Therapist.  She is a Certified Yoga Teacher, Certified Peer Support Mentor and Community Healthcare Worker.


Jennifer's ability to touch, move, and inspire goes beyond breaking old patterns and ways of being; it is an invitation for others to embark on their journey toward creating a truly remarkable life.
