Jessica Silis

Jessica is a certified Stress Coach, emTrace Emotions Coach as well as Child, Youth and Family Coach. Her mission is to make taking care of your mental health as normal as a visit to the dentist – or even the traditional Swabian “Kehrwoche” (“Sweep week”, if you will). People in the southwest region of Germany are notorious for taking incredibly good care of their properties, ritually cleaning stairways, hallways and driveways once a week – especially back in the day. It would be so beneficial for each individual and society as a whole, if everyone kept their minds just as healthy and clean. Jessica is also a former ice hockey player and still enjoys being physically active – these days, mostly outdoors with her dog Dakota, however. After obtaining her college degree in the United States, Jessica went back to Germany and had a great career in finance, where she spent 13 years around financial statements, international key account management, project and process management. For 10 of those years, she had human resource responsibility. It was during that time that she developed a passion for working for and with people, as it became quite clear to her that people needed more support when it came to their soft skills.
