About Me: Meet Jackie Sweeney
Hi there! I’m Jackie Sweeney, the heart and soul behind Becoming U Wellness. If you’ve been following along, you already know that I’m passionate about mental health, self-discovery, and creating a space where people can feel empowered to grow. But I realized I’ve never properly introduced myself or shared the story of the person behind this journey. So here it goes—this is me, Jackie, in all my colorful, eclectic, and sometimes chaotic glory.
I’ve always believed life is meant to be lived vibrantly, and if you know me, you know I bring that energy everywhere I go. My favorite color is pink, a shade that for me symbolizes joy, hope, and a little sparkle. Pink reminds me to embrace life with a playful spirit, to find beauty in the small things, and to never take myself too seriously. If I had to sum up my personality in one word, it would be vivid. I love bright colors, bold choices, and anything that reflects individuality.
But beyond the surface, there’s a deeper story. My path hasn’t always been bright and colorful. Like many of you, I’ve experienced struggles that shaped me. There were moments of deep uncertainty, times when I felt disconnected from who I was, and even days when I doubted I could ever find true happiness. Those experiences, as hard as they were, became the foundation for my work. They taught me that healing isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress, resilience, and learning to love yourself along the way.
Helping others has always been my purpose. I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people in their most vulnerable moments, guiding them as they process pain, rebuild confidence, and rediscover their inner strength. I see my role as both a guide and a cheerleader, reminding people of their worth and potential, even when they can’t see it themselves. I’ve learned that everyone’s journey is unique, and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness. That’s why Becoming U Wellness exists: to honor those differences and offer tools for healing and growth that meet people where they are.
Outside of my work, I’m a person who loves deeply and lives fully. My family is everything to me—they are my foundation, my constant, and my greatest source of love. I’m also incredibly lucky to have a circle of friends who bring so much joy to my life. Some of my happiest memories are filled with laughter—big, belly laughs that leave me wiping tears from my face. Whether it’s sharing inside jokes, dancing around the kitchen, or just being our true, unfiltered selves, my friends remind me of the beauty of connection and the power of joy.
I’ll admit, I have a few guilty pleasures, too. Shopping is one of them! There’s something about finding that perfect piece—whether it’s a new outfit, a quirky piece of decor, or even just a cozy candle—that feels like a small act of self-care. It’s less about the “things” and more about the process of expressing myself through what I choose. My style is eclectic, just like me, and I love spaces and items that tell a story.
When I look back at the hardest moments in my life, I’m struck by how far I’ve come. There were times when I felt like I’d never find peace within myself, let alone happiness. But over time, I’ve learned to embrace my flaws, let go of shame, and honor the progress I’ve made. My journey isn’t over—I don’t think it ever is—but I’ve found a sense of peace and purpose that I never thought was possible.
That’s what Becoming U Wellness is all about: creating a space where we can grow together, where we can celebrate the messy parts of life and the moments of triumph. It’s about showing up for ourselves, even when it’s hard, and finding joy in the everyday. I believe in the power of self-love, mindfulness, and community, and I’m here to remind you that you’re never alone on this journey.
Thank you for letting me be a part of your wellness journey. I hope my story, my experiences, and the tools I share through Becoming U Wellness inspire you to embrace your own path with courage and grace.
With love and gratitude,
Jackie Sweeney
Founder of Becoming U Wellness
