Jessica Braider, LMSW

Jessica Braider, LMSW is a therapist, health coach, and midlife coach whose mission is to embolden women to navigate the scramble of life with purpose and joy. She does this by providing practical resources that help to demystify feeding our families with her online meal planning service (The Scramble) and both coaching (jessicabraider.com) and therapy services (Washington Center for Women’s and Children’s Wellness) that help women to manage the many stressors of life with clarity and confidence. In her downtime, you can find Jessica in the kitchen experimenting with recipes or hiking or rock climbing with her two sons. In her course, Jessica explores how to navigate the often-overlooked but deeply transformative experiences of midlife–shifting relationships (empty nesting, aging parents, life partnership changes), evolving identities, career shifts, and rediscovering self-worth–with honest reflection, imperfect action, and connection to purpose.
