Burnout to Breakthrough to Wealth Freedom

Izzy Nalley, MBA Season 1 Episode 3

In this episode of our GRIT series, Izzy Nalley speaks with Jessilyn Persson, a seasoned expert in project management and financial education, who turned her burnout and workplace struggles into a thriving business that empowers couples to create transformative wealth plans. After two decades in the corporate and public sectors, Jessilyn hit a breaking point, juggling workplace harassment, a side business, and raising two young boys. Her recovery from this burnout led her and her husband, Brian, to build a business focused on helping couples accelerate their financial growth by aligning money mindsets and developing strategic wealth plans.

Jessilyn shares her personal experience of overcoming the challenges of working in a male-dominated field, facing workplace harassment, pay discrimination, and burnout while working in Project Management for the Police. She now channels these experiences into helping women navigate similar obstacles more quickly and effectively.

For Jessilyn, GRIT is defined by the courage to keep moving forward, even when the odds are stacked against you. She believes that women achieve their goals differently, through collaboration, sharing, and uplifting others—qualities that naturally enhance their success in both business and life.
