Hi, I'm Ericka,

I’m honored you’re here.

For much of my life, I was moving through the world feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and unsure of who I truly was. I didn’t have language for it at the time... I just knew that life felt heavier than it should. As a Highly Sensitive Person, I often sensed more than I understood, and without guidance, those sensitivities felt confusing and isolating.

Over time, I began to realize that many of the patterns I carried weren’t actually mine. I grew up in the Yakima Valley, Washington, in a Christian home, yet I often felt like something about me was “different.” My father passed when I was three, and although I didn’t have the words for it then, that loss shaped my entire life. As a child and a teenager without protection or boundaries, I found myself in circumstances I didn’t know how to navigate.

For years, I tried to find my way through therapy, medication, and sheer willpower. But it wasn’t until 2017, when a book landed in my hands at exactly the right moment from a dear coworker of mine, that something clicked. I suddenly saw my life through a new lens. I recognized unhealthy patterns, relationships, and unprocessed trauma. And from that moment forward, a deep inner shift began.

I started looking honestly at my family history, and I saw clearly the pain, abuse, and survival strategies passed down through generations. With a desire for truth and compassion, I made a decision... the cycle stops with me.

I spent years doing the inner work... studying, healing, and reclaiming the parts of myself that had been buried under fear, guilt, and conditioning. I healed emotionally and mentally… yet my body still whispered truths that talk alone couldn’t reach.

That’s when I discovered the profound connection between body and spirit. I learned that the body holds memory, wisdom, and pathways to freedom. And once I began healing at that level, everything changed.

Today, I live with more clarity, ease, joy, and purpose than I ever imagined possible! And that is why I created PeacefulWork, to make this kind of transformation available to others.

I live in Oakville, WA, where I spend my days studying, being in our Garden, working with clients, and cherishing time with my Beloved Husband and my Lovely Daughter. I am a graduate of BodyMechanics Myotherapy and Massage School, a BodyMind Bridge Practitioner, Subtle Body Life Coach, and Spinal Flow Practitioner. Currently, I am apprenticing with Natalie Zukerman with the Institute of Feminine Arts. These modalities have shaped my understanding of healing from the inside out and coming back into balance and harmony with the Sacred Path.

I help people shift out of survival mode and reconnect with the part of themselves they may have forgotten... the part that is Wise, Powerful, Intuitive, and Whole. You don’t have to stay overwhelmed. You don’t have to keep carrying the weight. You don’t have to walk alone. Healing is your birthright and your body knows the way. You are far more capable than you’ve been led to believe!

If you feel the nudge... the quiet inner call to step into a new way of being, I invite you to join me. I will hold a nurturing, grounded, and safe space for you as you reconnect with your magic, your purpose, and your innate ability to thrive.

With Much Love and Peace,
~ Ericka Jackson
