Hi Jess! I found you exactly a year ago when you had less than 2K subs. Im 33 and had 6 years clean from heroin and then relapsed right before I found your channel. Just hit 60 days clean after a year long relapse where I lost everything I built in 6 years of sobriety. Now it's all about the comeback. So appreciative of your channel and just you as a person!
Yes. Ive been tempted for so long to make a youtube channel. Ive had a insane life, I have a rare medical condition and became a young widow. All the stories about these two major life events are interesting and could help people, but I am so afraid of RUclips 😂 opening up to a camera is awkward enough(I truly didnt think I would struggle to the extent I initially did when I made practice videos. I decided to make practice videos to get comfortable talking to a camera and to practice how to edit but i never uploaded them). Fear of being judged, for certain stories that nobody in my life knows, for being 30 and not a 18 year old, for having a big nose😂 my cousin has done youtube and social media for a long time and shes had hate and expose videos made about her lol, shes had people threaten her, its crazy. Between those fears and currently being busy raising my one year old niece on my own for 5+ months now(ive always helped raise her but have been taking complete care of her 24-7 for 5 months) and a new massive health issue, Ive not decided yet on if I am going to do this youtube thing lol i think if i do, im going to use a pseudo name, like Lia instead of Julia lol
One thing that struck me listening to these is how important this will be for Micah one day to read. She needs to know that she saved her momma and just how much she was loved from day one.
I was with an abusive alcoholic for awhile and everyone was telling me how "good" I was for him so I felt that..it is so true..you can't ever fix them ❤
Anger was a MASSIVE thing for me when I got clean. I would black out in anger. Just actually feeling your feelings again and learning how to cope with them, very difficult, YET CAN BE DONE! 💛
Hey, its hard... but it gets easier every day. But you gotta stay away from what or who is causing you to turn to addiction. You can do it, stay strong, say no, and walk away.
I've never been to prison, nor am I an addict, but I love your channel and personality. You're so strong, and a voice and inspiration for so many. Proud of where you are today!
Although I’ve never been to jail, God knows I should have. That all changed the minute my Dr told me I was preggo. I’m glad your daughter gave you the inspiration to change and stay on the right path. These videos are helping people Jess, truly. Getting clean, staying clean or just helping someone understand addiction. Thank you for baring your heart out to us girl. Keep up the good work! Happy happy New Year to my second fam! The ride or die fam 💜
Jess I just found you 1-1-20 at 845 am! I beat dope in 2005 after hitting rock bottom!! I’m now trying to stop drinking..... I think it’s a miracle that you popped up on my phone! You are a great inspiration!
you really really really show people who had the situation kinda like yours that making mistakes doesn’t ruin your entire life. you have two beautiful daughters and a boyfriend (husband?) your just a big inspiration. i’m sure that people who have gone through things kinda like this are very inspired by you showing you can still have a great life after making a big mistake, thank you a lot ♥️
I love going back thru my treatment plans at the methadone clinic n seeing all the goals I’ve smashed. In the beginning they were so basic find a home and aNd a job...... 7 years in now current goal new car and working on my body, mind, spirit 💕♥️💕 happy 2020 Jess n Reece
YES GIRL! This NEEDS to be a series! So, so, soooo inspiring! I’m personally trying my best to stay sober and you’re making it that much more motivating and possible for me. ❤️ thank you.
I wrote you a letter hope you get it soon. You’re such an inspiration to me! I’m 8 months sober off heroin and meth and I’m doing amazing. I never had legal issues but I was living with my dealer in hotels and he was extremely physically abusice and almost killed me multiple times. He loved to strangle me unconscious but not to death. So glad I’m away from scary people. You make me feel I’m not alone.
Prison is a HUGE life altering experience. It’s a catastrophic event so KEEP TALKING Jess! Especially if it helps you heal/cope. “Grow through what you go through”. ❤️
I think it’s so beautiful how much a child can change a person, It clearly showed that you wanted to be a better person for her, I’m really glad you got her back and that you have a family now
I'm a practicing lawyer going through a very difficult time right now and you are an inspiration! You are the only RUclipsr I follow and something about you is just special. Reese is a very lucky dude! Keep strong and know your strength inspires many.
U poor thing this was a sad video to watch but so raw and real I hope ur ok after reading this go kiss ur family and have a great rest of ur night Jess 💟
It's amazing that you've accomplished all the goals you set for yourself! I've been through similar in my life, and I know it is a struggle, and it's WORK, and it takes having the insight to see what needs to change in your life. You absolutely should be so proud of how far you've come!
i can't imagine going through even a quarter of the stuff you went through. you are such a strong and amazing woman. i am so happy you are blessed to be in the position you are in now with family, friends, work, education, good health and mindset. So inspiring to so many people! Love ya!
I want to say thank you for sharing your story! I am a recovering addict also. It really does help knowing your not alone and hearing stories of other recovering addicts. I have a nephew in South MS prison. I've told him when he gets out I wanted him to watch your channel. He wants me to go with him to N.A. meetings when he gets out. I'm so proud of him he turned down getting out early so he could do a welding class, so he would have a chance at a better job not returning to his old life. Please keep sharing! Love you!
"it's not my job to make sure he's okay, it's my job to make sure I'm okay" YES!!! Such an important and profound message. Btw, seeing you get emotional here is making me emotional. You're so amazing and strong ♥️ Edit: Just finished the video and girl when you said you're now doing all the things you once wrote about wanting to do I fucking broke down. Please never forget how amazing, strong and resilient you actually are!!
The parts with Micah really hit home...I remember it being excruciating to be without my daughter! Aren’t you so glad it’s all behind you!!!! My gosh how far you’ve come!!!
Hey, Jessica. I found your channel probably a few months ago. I haven't been though even half of what you have, but I think your story is incredibly inspiring, even for those of us who haven't had the same experiences as you. To see where you are today and what you've made of yourself is truly amazing. You're an absolute sweetheart and I'm so happy you've been able to overcome some of the most difficult challenges that seem almost impossible. You're resilience is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing your stories and inspiring and encouraging others. You're putting a lot of good into the world. That's one of my favorite things. Thank you very much! Have a happy new year!
“ unless that man has a diaper you can not change him” 👌👏🏻🙌 yes girl realest quote I have heard in a long time love that! You’re so inspiring girl I love everything about u and am so so so grateful that you come on here and share everything about you past & present , trust me when I tell you people hear you , people relate to you , and you’re helping so many ! You have come so far and you should be so proud of the woman you are today , because you are amazing 🥰❤️
It’s probably best you did time AWAY from familiar faces in AR. It made you look inward for strength and friendship. I love your vids. I got my boy back too after a battle so I feel your struggle for Micca (spelling?). Nothing more important than your job as a mother! It’s a lifestyle worth living baby! You’re a huge inspiration... I think I’m going to share your videos with a drug rehab counselor. She May be able to share these with other ladies like us 🤗 to inspire them to move forward!
I forgot to mention ages ago that I love your new video intro, it’s really cool. Also, thanks for sharing your thoughts and journal with us, it’s really eye opening as to how your thought process works in prison. Just by a few pages, you can tell how high tension being locked up really is. I’m so proud of how far you’ve come. 💔💔💋💋
That's amazing momma! So proud! I still have letters and drawings from when I was locked up. It's a really weird feeling looking back on them.. Almost 4 years sober over here! 💕🤘
This is so crazy girl. The journey you have had. And today as I watch this is New Year’s Day 2020, a new year a new decade ! Wow. We can only hope to be better even stronger people ♥️ happy New Years to your family girl 🖤
oh wow I just found your channel last night and I've been binging your videos all morning LOL I'm 21, about ready to move out and transfer colleges (criminal justice major) seeing things from your perspective is beyond fascinating. thank you so much for sharing your stories, you deserve 10x the subscribers!!!! love love love you
Ooooooo girl I'm liking the new intro But don't go too "RUclipsr" on us! I love how real and natural and relatable you are, don't change and get sucked into social media and become like everybody else. Stay awkward and goofy, stay you, we love you for it !!!!!!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
love it.. ride or die!! been waiting for these. hang strong!! you did everything you said you would and much more!! new year starting with queen bee jes.
I'm just glad you got a good foster fam for your sweet girl. As a foster mom I appreciate your kind words bout them. Also super proud of you. You are the bio parent we foster parents dream of and the outcome we pray happens (contrary to popular belief. We DO want you reunited). Good job mama***
I’m so happy for you that you’ve changed your life and met so many of your goals. You’ll make a great therapist but ever since I started watching you I’ve thought that you need to write a book!
@Jessica Kent: althoug i have never been adiccted to drugs and never been in prison i love to watch your Videos. Thank you for sharing youre experiences with us! You have such lovely voice and you are a beautiful Person! You are sooo strong and i am so happy for you that you have your daughter back! Wishing you the Best - nice greets from Austria 🙂
Happy New Year Jess and Reece!!! Sending love from Cleveland, Ohio!!! I've been watching your videos since the Spring time and you are such an inspiration Jess!
Jess I just want to say credit to both you and Christina for really painting a picture of what prison is like and how not every person who goes to jail is what we see portrayed in the media. You guys really opened my eyes.
I just wanted to say I think you're really brave for sharing some of your most personal detailed stories, a lot of people would never be able to do that. I think you're a huge inspiration and living proof that _anything_ is possible and that all hardships can be overcome. Thanks jess 🤘
omg you have inspired me so much!! I definitely haven’t been through what you have but the determination to be better that was inside of you during the roughest time of your life is truly admirable. you’ve reignited the fire in me to go after my goals and dreams with vigor💜💜much love and thank you for sharing your story with the world. I never leave comments but I think your channel was recommended to me on purpose not by mistake
Happy new years. Jessica you inspire us all. Thank you for your positive message. 2020 is the year for all of us who have made these changes in my life. Canadian prison channel supports you. Hit that like people. Stay up, stay free
Happy new year! I've found your channel a few months ago and it has been really interesting, I always like getting a new perspective on things. Thank you for sharing your story, you're such a beautiful, brave and sweet individual! I'm so grateful that I subscribed to your channel. Sending some hugs and love from Croatia! 🤗
You reading your journal really shows how hard prison life is. I get that sometimes that could have been the only place to vent. It's so interesting to hear.
Christopher Horbett, I totally agree! Jess, there is nothing wrong with your older videos and you should be proud of them because they are authentic and absolutely everyone on the planet has to walk before they are able to run. Putting yourself down everytime you tell new viewers to watch an older video for context just makes it more awkward and trivial. Trust me, your older videos are only cringe worthy to you; I, like many, subscribed to your channel when I started watching those videos, so they can't be that bad!
This is the BEST advice I will ever get "....if he doesn't wear a diaper-you cannot change him..." If nobody ever told you they are proud of you...just know I am. You go girl!!!
At 8mins when you talk about getting your daughter back, becoming a good mother & never going back to prison.... that's when you truly made the choice to change & you DID! I'm so fucking proud of you & how hard you worked to get where you are today ❤
If your parents would have gotten Micah, you may not have took the situation as serious as you did. I am beyond proud of you! You are a true warrior Jess💪
Hey there its Christa from north Carolina again and I think you are so strong and just all around an amazing young woman for all that you have accomplished by putting one foot in front of the other and doing the next right thing. I'm very impressed with you and proud. Keep doing what you are doing!
Happy New Year Jess! I've been watching your channel for a while now, and I just want to thank you for always keeping it real. BTW Your new intro is fire!!
Just found your channel. Its cool that you can monetize your prison life and recovery... having a RUclips income is life changing for many people. You are providing an example to many on how to restart a life...
Happy New Year to you and your family, Jess! I just discovered your channel a month or so ago, it was recommended for me, I suppose because I'm interested in Psychology and Forensics (?🤷🏻♀️), but I'm glad I found you and watched a lot of your videos the last few weeks; it's so great how you got your life together, and so important you speak openly about drug addiction, prison, staying sober. I'm sure you are helping lots of people with your content! Wish you the best for 2020, and may you channel continue to grow! 🍀🎉✨
Happy New Year everyone!! I’ve never been in prison nor planning to do so lol but I found Jess like 3 months ago and can’t stop watching her videos ever since.. Jess you are a great storyteller 💋❤️Love from Florida
Subbed! Its very interesting to hear from someone who has actually been in situations such as these, it's very important to remember what you overcame so you can move forward. Keep up the good work 👍
You are the best I love your videos thank you for being so truthful us moms who went through loosing children and going through addiction are so misunderstood and looked at so horrible,thank you so much for showing all that we can do it we can overcome what no one could imagine
Hi Jess! I found you exactly a year ago when you had less than 2K subs. Im 33 and had 6 years clean from heroin and then relapsed right before I found your channel. Just hit 60 days clean after a year long relapse where I lost everything I built in 6 years of sobriety. Now it's all about the comeback. So appreciative of your channel and just you as a person!
You got this brother!!! 💪🖤
You got this! One day at a time, my friend! 🤘🏼💕
Good luck dude. This shit is hard. Fall down seven times get up 8! ✌🏽💜
❤️❤️❤️
Congrats
”Unless that man has a diaper, you can not change him” 😂😂
I loved that so much.
Also, Happy New Decade!
i read this as she said it! i love her omg
@Sonojulia Isn’t that the Truth!!!
I love that quote so much 🤣🤣
"It's my job to make sure I'M okay" mood of 2020 & forever
Amen! We are allowed to be selfish. We cant help people without us being OK.
Margie B omg yes girl
This aged well lol
Just now reading this comment and it hit me real hard that 2020 was 2 years ago 😅😅
"Dont break the law just cause of awkward social situations"
As an introvert you sold me imma be a good girl forever!!
Anyone else think it’s so amazing to be able to open up so personally about such a traumatic event in her life
Yes. Ive been tempted for so long to make a youtube channel. Ive had a insane life, I have a rare medical condition and became a young widow. All the stories about these two major life events are interesting and could help people, but I am so afraid of RUclips 😂 opening up to a camera is awkward enough(I truly didnt think I would struggle to the extent I initially did when I made practice videos.

Yes
@@Juwlz I'd watch your vids!
"It's my job to make sure I'm okay." That's the best sentence to start 2020. Happy new year!
AMEN
Oof this didnt age well
One thing that struck me listening to these is how important this will be for Micah one day to read. She needs to know that she saved her momma and just how much she was loved from day one.
"because I beat up a sex offender" just when I thought I couldn't adore you anymore
True!
I like it when you say "What's up you guys"..😊
I was with an abusive alcoholic for awhile and everyone was telling me how "good" I was for him so I felt that..it is so true..you can't ever fix them ❤
I would love to hear more about your entries in your prison journal if you would feel comfortable to do so. Love this and you lol!
Do you realize how strong and special you are? Your Mama Bear instinct completely trumped your need to use. You are a strong woman and amazing mother!
“Sorry my hair looks gross I know”
Ma’am your hair is perfectly laid and pin straight not a single knot, Whachu mean 😂
Stefani Joanne. I feel you.
You look stunning ♡ what a queen
Anger was a MASSIVE thing for me when I got clean. I would black out in anger.
Just actually feeling your feelings again and learning how to cope with them, very difficult, YET CAN BE DONE! 💛
Umm.... I've been locked up I am a felon I'm an addict and it is so hard to be sober day by day and your my rock
@Janine Nicole its a struggle every day! Don't ever give up!! Prayers for you🙏
Hey, its hard... but it gets easier every day. But you gotta stay away from what or who is causing you to turn to addiction. You can do it, stay strong, say no, and walk away.
Janine Nicole. Over one month girl! You go! Stay strong! Have a wonderful day!!!
11 months!!!
4 years!! Congrats !! ( hopefully you still sober!)
I've never been to prison, nor am I an addict, but I love your channel and personality. You're so strong, and a voice and inspiration for so many. Proud of where you are today!

Rtytanicj crazy right? Shes amazing.
Going to rehab is a huge life altering/catastrophic experience! You’re a soldier Jess! Keep fighting the good fight 💪🏻👏🏻
so proud of you, i almost cried when you talked about how you are doing everything you said you would do in prison 😭😭 so proud
Jess I just found you 1-1-20 at 845 am! I beat dope in 2005 after hitting rock bottom!! I’m now trying to stop drinking.....
I think it’s a miracle that you popped up on my phone!
You are a great inspiration!

I wrote you a letter hope you get it soon. You’re such an inspiration to me! I’m 8 months sober off heroin and meth and I’m doing amazing. I never had legal issues but I was living with my dealer in hotels and he was extremely physically abusice and almost killed me multiple times. He loved to strangle me unconscious but not to death.

Trust me, your older videos are only cringe worthy to you; I, like many, subscribed to your channel when I started watching those videos, so they can't be that bad!
This is the BEST advice I will ever get "....if he doesn't wear a diaper-you cannot change him..." If nobody ever told you they are proud of you...just know I am. You go girl!!!
At 8mins when you talk about getting your daughter back, becoming a good mother & never going back to prison.... that's when you truly made the choice to change & you DID! I'm so fucking proud of you & how hard you worked to get where you are today ❤
Ride or die in 2020. I’m ready for the tea to be spilled girl.
We ride together, we die together.
21:12 I'm fascinated by how insightful and almost philosophical that whole thing was. It really shows your understanding of the situation.
I love you so much
And I hope you have a very happy new year 🥳
If your parents would have gotten Micah, you may not have took the situation as serious as you did. I am beyond proud of you! You are a true warrior Jess💪
RIDE OR DIE IN 2020!!! ❤❤💥💥

This is not just a channel. This is the show we need on all steaming platforms.
Hey there its Christa from north Carolina again and I think you are so strong and just all around an amazing young woman for all that you have accomplished by putting one foot in front of the other and doing the next right thing. I'm very impressed with you and proud. Keep doing what you are doing!
Happy New Year Jess! I've been watching your channel for a while now, and I just want to thank you for always keeping it real. BTW Your new intro is fire!!
Just found your channel. Its cool that you can monetize your prison life and recovery... having a RUclips income is life changing for many people. You are providing an example to many on how to restart a life...
Thank you for sharing. What you’re doing here is so important. Also, your videos are so professional now. You’re doing great!
Happy New Year to you and your family, Jess! I just discovered your channel a month or so ago, it was recommended for me, I suppose because I'm interested in Psychology and Forensics (?🤷🏻♀️), but I'm glad I found you and watched a lot of your videos the last few weeks; it's so great how you got your life together, and so important you speak openly about drug addiction, prison, staying sober. I'm sure you are helping lots of people with your content! Wish you the best for 2020, and may you channel continue to grow! 🍀🎉✨
Happy New Year everyone!! I’ve never been in prison nor planning to do so lol but I found Jess like 3 months ago and can’t stop watching her videos ever since.. Jess you are a great storyteller 💋❤️Love from Florida
Girl, thank you for opening yourself up to us, you’re such a strong and badass batch!
Subbed! Its very interesting to hear from someone who has actually been in situations such as these, it's very important to remember what you overcame so you can move forward. Keep up the good work 👍
yesss jessica!! i’m loving the new intros & outros
You are the best I love your videos thank you for being so truthful us moms who went through loosing children and going through addiction are so misunderstood and looked at so horrible,thank you so much for showing all that we can do it we can overcome what no one could imagine
You took inspiration from wherever you could and now you are the source of inspiration for so many. You are amazing. Happy New Year.
Jessica, oh my God girl!
Thanks for my first cry of New Year!
