Own Your Life
Do you want to be the master of your own universe? Do you want to feel 100% authentic? Do you desperately want to become that person you feel is inside you- strong, bold, capable? Are you tired of giving your power away by not standing up for yourself, not standing up for others, putting yourself down…? “OWN YOUR LIFE” is a proven success strategy to help you break through barriers and overcome the fears that seem to control you. In her dynamic presentation, Jessie Funk uses her world-class singing ability, hilarious and real personality, and the power of stories to convey her message of taking ownership of who you are meant to become!

The Boredom Box, empowering kids to turn off the TV and PLAY!
: In her best selling book “The Boredom Box,” Jessie teaches kids that there is entertainment everywhere in the amazing world around us. We need to find a balance with the TV and video games and kids must learn to PLAY! In this assembly, Jessie introduces creative games and activities the kids can play at home instead of just gluing themselves to the couch. Relay races, kick the can, amazing things to do with rubber gloves, traditions, exciting service activities, things to do in the car… and so many more! This assembly will be one the kids will never forget! They will want to run home and tell their family- “let’s play!”
