Voices of Resonance
“Jessica’s music is a luminous and direct call to return home...a brimming invitation into devotion.”
“A sound session with Jess is what I imagine a baby feels like being lulled by loving parents - the sound of her incredible voice coupled with a variety of instruments took me to another dimension. I left feeling more open and relaxed, and though it’s been weeks since my last session, I can bring my mind to the memory of being with Jess and I can feel the good vibes reverberating in my body.”
“If music is the weapon, and a call to arms is what we need, then ‘Call Me Home’ is our anthem!”
“Jessica creates a wonderful and welcoming space where I am able to let go, create, and connect to my own sound. What I really love about the practice is the constant use of imagination and learning different ways and techniques to work with what I feel in the moment. I’ve worked with Jessica for a few years now and I have experienced considerable shifts in my ability to hold space for others and for myself using my voice. She truly is a gifted teacher, always challenging me while also supporting me.”
“Jessica’s teaching is a gift. Guided by her big heart and rooted in deep study and tradition, she creates space for me to tune into the authentic sound of my voice and to become more and more comfortable hearing it, working with it, and freeing it. Because of her nurturing, calm presence and her clear, insightful feedback, I have been able to release my fears about messing up or ‘sounding bad’ and am finding great joy in playing with this instrument, this oldest instrument of my body. Our work together is deeply meditative, playful, and uplifting, and when I leave our sessions, I feel lighter and more joyful.

“I took voice sessions with Jessica at a very vulnerable phase of my life, when I felt lost, and I had lost my voice. Her lessons were a space to reconnect with myself. As soon as I sat down, her calm and loving presence allowed me to feel absolutely safe and cared for. I could dive deep into the depths of my emotions and give them a voice, a way to let them out and express themselves, the way they wanted to express, without any judgements or agendas. The process allowed me to trust again in myself: to honor my emotions, honor my process, honor myself. If I have to describe Jess’s work I would say it is an opportunity to connect deeply with your soul and in that sense find and express your most beautiful and truest voice.”
“The exercises Jessica teaches are simple yet powerful. I’m more aware and connected to myself, my voice, and the world. Since working with Jessica, I have been more aware of the constriction in my voice and how I use my voice. Before working with her, it was like I was speaking or singing into a box, but now the ceiling has lifted, and I’ve relaxed a lot. After my sessions with Jessica, I always feel light and expansive. It has been an excellent way for me to shut out the outside world and dive into the moment more. I love that I can do the exercises almost anywhere and even include my four-year-old son.”
“RECLAIM met and exceeded my expectations. It provided a nurturing space for me to grow and connect with myself on a profound level. I awakened my voice and my soul; I connected with my inner child, my ancestors and the universe. I developed a practice that I can continue on an ongoing basis. I also met some pretty badass women whom I plan to remain connected to. It was a truly fulfilling experience that I highly recommend.”
Jessica Bonds, social worker/sound practitioner
I feel very grateful for the experience. It was a real gift to be vulnerable in such a safe and supportive environment. I walk away feeling empowered to keep on accessing that vulnerable part of myself and voice and to trust that I will be caught and received with love by those my work resonates with.

Beth Weinstein, Spiritual Business Coach & Podcast Host: The Psychedelic Entrepreneur
“This course was amazing for me – from an awareness standpoint of myself, to loving my voice and re-establishing a relationship with my voice, to learning that it is my superpower and feeling so empowered by it…This course affected my life in a very big way, and I am so incredibly grateful for it. Every year for the past three years, I believe God has sent me a miracle in February. I didn’t know it when I saw [Jessica’s] email in February, but this program was my miracle this year.”
Atthena, yoga teacher/healer
Some of the practices were very healing, and allowed deeper expression of emotions, connection with energy of my ancestors, body wisdom, and soul expression. The medicine aspect of voice expression and singing practices aligned with intention was helpful and powerful. I noticed that I always felt more energized and grounded after a one-on-one with Jessica, or after the group practice. Jessica is an amazing facilitator: kind, intuitive, and receptive to the needs of the group.
-Maria, Therapist
I really gained a lot from the experience. Being someone who’s been carrying a lot of tension in my diaphragm, my stomach, and my throat, just learning how to work with vocalization and sound and use my body as an instrument…to learn how to release tension, has been a really beautiful realization and tool. It was helpful learning different methods to do that, from embodied intuitive sounding work to more melodic and spiritual practices. It was also really sweet to be able to work in a group in the moments that we communicated through sound to hear, witness, and receive one another’s sounds and the vulnerability of that, and practice holding space. I found that really beautiful.
-Gili, multimedia artist
“My intention coming into the journey was gaining confidence in speaking my truth and what is important to me…I am now free to express myself, and that includes choosing with whom and in what spaces I choose to do so. I do not need to explain or apologize for being authentic – and I am no longer uncomfortable being misunderstood. In fact, I feel incredibly liberated from the weight of people pleasing.”
Glenna Neece, feminine embodiment coach
What Jessica is offering in this space is of incredible value, especially because I find her so embodied in her own vessel, so in touch also with the Earth, and the element of water. The voice is this incredible tool for me – it brings me back to those calmer waters or truer waters within myself. And also, I feel that now, through the voice, I can connect with the waters of others, or get them in touch with their own waters. Jessica is a very gifted teacher. Her own vocal expression is really exquisite.
-Isabelle, wellness practitioner & Marketing
“Some of the reflections that I received [during RECLAIM] on my ability to evoke emotion and healing with my voice is informing my life path. During the program, I grew the confidence to share my music with people I know. Jess is a skilled space-holder, with nurturing feminine earth mama presence and a light heart. In every step and moment I could feel the love, care, and attention she put into creating and leading this experience for us.”
