Discover the Hidden Patterns Shaping Your Family Story
Thursday, June 18, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. CST
Zoom Meeting format - 90-minutes
Every family is shaped by a circle of influence — the people, places, experiences, beliefs, and events that impact how we live, love, respond, survive, and heal. In genealogy, we often use the FAN Club method (Friends, Associates, and Neighbors) to uncover records and reconstruct lives. But what if those same circles could also help us understand inherited behaviors, family dynamics, generational trauma, resilience, gifts, and the stories carried through time?
This workshop invites you to explore family history in a deeper, more meaningful way. Through genealogical research, storytelling, writing prompts, and reflective exercises, you will learn how to identify the influences surrounding your ancestors — and yourself — to better understand the patterns that have shaped your lineage and your life.
As we map these circles of influence, you may uncover why certain beliefs, behaviors, fears, strengths, or emotional patterns repeat across generations. You may also discover new paths for research, richer ways to write family stories, and opportunities for healing, integration, and transformation.
Whether you are a genealogist, writer, healer, military researcher, or someone seeking deeper understanding of your family story, this workshop offers tools to help you connect research with meaning.
What We’ll Explore
In this workshop, we move beyond names, dates, and documents to examine the human experience behind the records.
Using the FAN Club concept alongside storytelling and reflective inquiry, you will learn how to:
- Identify the people, environments, and events that influenced an ancestor’s life
- Explore inherited family beliefs, behaviors, patterns, and survival strategies
- Recognize cycles of trauma, resilience, silence, service, sacrifice, and strength
- Open new genealogical and military research pathways through contextual exploration
- Write richer, more nuanced family narratives rooted in both history and humanity
- Reflect on how ancestral experiences may still influence your own life today
Together, we will create a web of connection around an ancestor — or yourself — to better understand how lives are shaped across generations.

In certain places or situations, I’ve always felt a familiarity that couldn’t be explained. After jumping in to DNA research over a decade ago … that seemed like the only possible explanation for the feelings I encountered: DNA memory! Some people thought I was crazy …
In the last seven years, I have opened myself to be guided. I can’t explain how or who is guiding me, but I know that random encounters with unknown folks have set me on different journeys and at the end, I find answers that I have been seeking for years! You can’t make this stuff up!
In hindsight, which is 20-20, I see that I was being guided all along, but didn’t understand at the time. In putting all the pieces together today, it makes perfect sense!
Jennifer’s program and her experiences validated what I have thought to be true for years … DNA memory IS real! But, I also learned that some of the troubling patterns of the past keep recurring because the ancestors need help in healing, and that it’s possible for us to help.
I’ve always wanted to write about my experiences, but didn’t really know where to start. This program gave me ideas on how to gather and organize my thoughts. I’m using the Ancestral Codes 90-day Journal for some help getting started. It has 3 pages for each day with prompts that I would never have thought of.

As a young child I knew I was here to help transform the world. I’ve always been the quiet weird outsider who observed and stood witness to the silent suffering of humanity. I’m a cosmic intuitive puzzle master, seeing and feeling what lies beyond the veil. This enables me to identify repeating patterns, connect the dots and piece the complex puzzle of our individual and collective stories together. These gifts have allowed me to heal some deep ancestral traumas and end toxic cycles in my family.
Guided by my military ancestors, more than 25 years ago, I stepped on the family & military history research trail. That journey allowed me to connect more deeply with my ancestors, spirit guides, angels, and others beyond the veil. I created a genealogy business which quickly transformed into a military research, speaking, and writing business. Explore military research articles, videos, records, resources, and my books at the WWII Research & Writing Center.
By 2015 my healing journey & military work allowed me to live and travel in Europe and create a life both in Chicago and near Amsterdam. I became embedded in Dutch society, life, relationships, healthcare, politics, and culture. For several years I was married to a Dutch man who lived with cancer and other life-threatening health issues. I developed PTSD as I traversed the layers of his health issues in addition to living two different lives on two continents, while facing my own triggers and ancestral patterns. We were so energetically connected, that as I accompanied him on his journey as he moved closer to death, I also faced issues of grief, compassion fatigue, caregiver responsibilities, and how I would survive and thrive after the relationship ended. Identifying the ancestral patterns I was living with him helped me heal and move forward after the relationship ended and he died.
In Europe, I visited battlefields & burial sites, religious & cultural sites, heard family & war stories, some of which brought me to my knees in grief as I channeled the people telling the stories. I understand history, context, and perspectives that many people do not. This makes me unique in the way I can help clients heal on both sides of the ocean to explore their personal & ancestral family patterns & war trauma.
To heal my PTSD and personal and ancestral patterns, I worked with energy healers and studied ancestral lineage healing, energy healing modalities, inherited trauma, grief & loss, and caregiving. It took several years but I came out the other side of PTSD, released many traumatic and toxic family patterns and am thriving.
I am excited to help you discover the stories of your ancestors and heal. Welcome to the Ancestral Souls Wisdom School and this cosmic healing journey we travel together.
