Flagstaff Wedding Officiant: Meet Jen Paul
Thank you for your interest in Life Passages! CALL 928-607-3941
Hi! My name is Jen Paul and I am an attuned Wedding Officiant; Ordained Minister; Life Cycle Celebrant; Couple's Coach and Life Coach; Death Doula.
A few things I believe in...
* The power of ceremony and it's ability to create a new paradigm in our lives! Weddings, elopements, vow renewals, baby naming ceremonies, rites of passage, healing ceremonies and celebrations of life (just to name a few) are created to honor these significant moments in our lives. Weaving ritual and storytelling into these events makes it even more memorable.
* Reconnecting couples at a deeper level through couple's and premarital coaching.
* The dying process as a precious time to be honored with gentle goodbyes.
* The ability of a person's own healing power - as we walk through life and have moments of getting "stressed out", body work; meditation; good food and nutrition; laughter and life coaching can relax and release tension enabling us to get back into the flow of life.
* Holding space for the suffering that human beings endure.
* The power of love to transform lives!
Professionally....
This is my full time business! The bulk of my work is officiating couple's wedding or elopement ceremonies which is my absolute joy! Holding space for you and your guests (if present) on your wedding day is so rewarding. Creating a ceremony that is meaningful and reflective of your relationship is profoundly important to me. Premarital counseling sessions as well as couple's coaching are great for deepening your relationship.
As an Officiant and Life Cycle Celebrant, my certification is through the Natural Transitions Institute.
In 2015, I retired from a joyful 12 year career of teaching in a Montessori classroom for preschool to Kindergarten aged children. Pursuing my dreams while helping others has always been important to me!
Personally.....
I reside in Flagstaff, AZ with my Beloved husband Ron and our dog Finn. Ron and I were married in 1994 and became a blended family as he brought two sons who were aged 4 and 6 years old at the time. We have 3 wonderful sons and 4 grandchildren.
To unwind, I enjoy singing! I sing at bedside with Threshold Choir (singing to those at threshold of death, very ill or experiencing a major life transition) members. My husband and I are a musical duo, "Higher Ground" performs locally and at Folk Fests as does our band, Rhythm Runners! In addition; spending time with family, hiking, meditating and connecting with nature rejuvenates me. Silent Vipassana meditation as well as Kirtan (chanting) is a way for me to find clarity, open my heart and clear my mind.
I look forward to getting to know you and hearing all about how your path in life is currently unfolding. Thank you for your interest in my work!
Warmly,
Jen Paul
