Meet Lady J

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Lady J. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Lady , we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?
My resilience is a result of healing and my relationship with God is the driving force behind it. I have been through more than most and my different traumas and hardships put me in a position where I needed to do some serious internal work, but I would not have been able to tap into being resilient without learning how to truly forgive, what it meant to have a relationship with God, and how to extract the negative seeds planted in me from my childhood and up so I could replant and rebuild by speaking life into myself and surrounding myself with those who poured into me as I came into the realization of my true identity. I had to learn how fully embrace who I was and whose I was and accept the assignment that was given to me birthed out of my pain.

As an individual that has experienced and endured things like homelessness, prescription drug addiction, suicide attempts, sexual assault and abuse, abandonment, rock-bottom in business and life, and much more…. I have learned how to bounce back repeatedly from the seemingly impossible and win! Because I have kept my resilience on repeat, I have been dubbed the “BounceBack Queen.”

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
My name is Jacquie Murrell, better known as “Lady J,” the BounceBack Queen and The Master BounceBackologist. I am a multi-award-winning Community Servant Leader, Master BounceBackologist, National Life Transformation Speaker, Author, Mentor, Business Development Coach & Consultant, Rising Media Mogul, and Serial Entrepreneur. I teach others how to bounce back from seemingly impossible circumstances and how to build a life and business that is positioned to be sustainable and win through my mentoring and coaching programs, Business Bangers (a division of Life Support Company LLC), and the BounceBack Program (a division of BounceBackology LLC). Additionally, I provide a host of other services and products through my multimedia company, E.G.O. Entertainment Network, and my nonprofit organization, No Limits Ministry Inc.

Though I love all of what I do, my passion is helping others overcome trauma and hardships to lead a prosperous life and business. What I find most exciting about it is, watching the transformation of another individual from rock bottom to restoration and then celebration. It is a beautiful thing to see someone walk into freedom.

I am due to launch my re-branded and upgraded program, BounceBackology in 2024. I am gearing up to host my 2nd Annual National Re-Up Experience as well…. honoring those who have also bounced back and are using their gifts, talents, and businesses to serve and support their community.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
The top three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in my journey have been…

1. Forgiveness and Emotional Stability

2. Mindset Transformation

3. Exploring Identity & Purpose

If one can forgive, whether it be themselves or someone else, they will be able to address the root of any issue and completely heal from whatever is contributing to their emotional damage which shows in all aspects of their life. Forgiveness allows one to start the process of not just healing, but becoming whole.

Once they have let go of certain things and people that will cause their growth and healing to become stagnant, they will be able to do the work of transforming their mind. Extract. Replant. Rebuild.

Through these phases, an individual will be able to begin to understand WHO they are and WHY their existence is necessary… PURPOSE.

The best advice I can give to help someone develop or improve on these is to be honest with yourself. Be honest about the WHAT, WHY, WHO, AND WHERE. Accountability and Responsibility is key and helps push or strengthen determination and consistency. It starts with you. Be willing to have the surgery and not just try to patch yourself up with band-aids.

Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?
My godmother, Tanya, taught me the greatest lesson I could learn…. forgiveness. She taught me and showed me why it was for me and not for the other person. Without this lesson, I would still be stuck mentally, emotionally, spiritually, socially, etc. where I was at 16 years old. This lesson is needed in life period, both personally and professionally. Often times it is unforgiveness that keeps us from moving forward. It blocks clarity and hinders our ability to make sound decisions. Every aspect of our lives are connected.
