After a long(ish) career of over a decade in real estate Jackie decided that it was time for a change and took a step back to pursue working as a freelance writer. Now she pens articles on a range of topics, but in her 'other main job' she's a mom to a young daughter and has a fur baby called Rex, a whippet dog. She volunteers for a range of mental health charities, as she has had her own battles with anxiety and depression over the years.
