WEI Cohort 7 Spotlight: Jessica Myers
From $100 Million Declaration to Pocket Sound Bath—How One Entrepreneur Is Building Wealth Money Can’t Buy
Jessica Myers didn’t start with capital. She started with a declaration.
At 38 years old, the Atlanta native and Georgia State University graduate stood at a crossroads most entrepreneurs know well: real estate wins shadowed by devastating losses, a bank account that didn’t reflect her vision, and grief so heavy it threatened to collapse everything she’d built.
Her mother had just passed. Relationships fractured. The financial wins—over $20 million in renovated assets, co-ownership of a Home2Suites by Hilton in Oklahoma that made her one of the youngest African-American women to own a major hotel property—felt hollow against the weight of what she’d lost.
But in one of her final conversations, her mother asked her a question that would become Myers’ North Star: “What if it all changes?”
And it did.
The $100 Million Frequency
Before joining WEI Cohort 7, Myers made a declaration that seemed impossible given her circumstances: she would build a $100 million enterprise. She had no roadmap. No inheritance. No safety net. What she had was focus—and a willingness to pause long enough to transmute pain into power.
“I was broke. My mom died. I had every reason to focus on the negative,” Myers reflects. “But I kept coming back to her question. What if it all changes? What if the darkness I’m sitting in is just the pause before something breaks open?”
That pause led her to sound healing.
Her husband Joel, a certified sound healer, introduced her to the practice during their darkest season. Crystal singing bowls. Breathwork. Frequencies designed to shift energy, not just soothe it. Together, they discovered something unexpected: stillness wasn’t passive—it was generative. The practice didn’t erase grief; it transmuted it into clarity, alignment, and momentum.
“We will all face darkness—on every level,” Myers says. “The power isn’t in avoiding it. It’s in tuning into our ability to transmute that energy into something that serves us.”
From Grief to Innovation: Pocket Sound Bath
In January 2026, Myers and Joel launched Pocket Sound Bath, a mobile app that brings studio-quality sound therapy to anyone with a smartphone. The app offers interactive crystal bowl tones and curated sound-healing sessions designed for entrepreneurs, caregivers, and decision-makers who need to reset but don’t have time for traditional wellness retreats.
Within weeks, the app was downloaded across multiple countries. The traction didn’t come from aggressive marketing—it came from people experiencing the pause for themselves.
“Clarity comes after the pause, not before it,” Myers explains. “Every time I tried to rush through my grief, I made worse decisions. Every time I paused, I got closer to the $100 million frequency I declared.”
That frequency isn’t just about revenue—it’s about resonance. Myers believes invisible currencies like resilience, alignment, and courage are as valuable as capital. Pocket Sound Bath is her first product in what she calls the “invisible currency ecosystem”—a suite of tools, frameworks, and experiences designed to help people build wealth money can’t buy.
The WEI Chapter: Right Relationship, Right Time
Myers joined the Women’s Entrepreneurship Initiative at a pivotal moment. The program didn’t just offer business training—it offered permission to build differently.
“WEI came at exactly the right time,” she says. “I’d been focusing on this $100 million goal with no idea how I’d get there. But through relationships—through the right connections showing up at the right moment—I keep getting closer.”
For Myers, entrepreneurship isn’t linear. It’s seasonal. She points to the fig tree in her yard as a reminder: same tree, different seasons. The barrenness of winter doesn’t mean the tree is dead—it means it’s resting, preparing for what’s next.
“My friend Terrica, another Atlanta native, reminded me in a critical moment to rest,” Myers shares. “That season of rest was in the midst of life’s greatest storm. I didn’t know I just needed to breathe through it. Now, I live in tribute—to my mother, to the principles she raised me with, to the beauty that comes when you honor the pause.”
The Pause: Juneteenth 2026
Myers’ next move honors that philosophy. This June, during Juneteenth weekend in Atlanta, she’s hosting The Pause—a two-day activation at a park in Atlanta designed to bring stillness into one of the city’s most culturally significant weekends.
Saturday, June 20th, integrates with Atlanta’s Juneteenth movement—visibility, celebration, collective breath. Sunday, June 21st—Father’s Day and the Summer Solstice—is reserved for ceremony, stillness, and reverence.
“Everyone remembers where they were pre-COVID or post-COVID,” Myers observes. “The Pause in 2020 changed the trajectory of everything—education, work, relationships. What got unlocked depended on what you chose to focus on.”
This Juneteenth, while all eyes are on Atlanta, Myers is inviting the world to simply pause.
“Bring your focus to the right thing,” she says. “Not the noise. Not the chaos. The pause is where transformation lives.”

What’s Next
Myers is now 38, turning 39 in February. She’s no longer building her identity in real estate—she’s building platforms that scale stillness, resilience, and alignment. Pocket Sound Bath is Act One. The Pause is Act Two. And the $100 million declaration? Still very much in motion.
“I don’t know exactly how I’ll get there,” she admits. “But I trust the frequency. I trust the relationships. I trust that when you focus on the $100 million regardless of your circumstances, somehow, through people and moments and divine timing, you keep getting closer.”
She pauses, then smiles.
“My mom asked, ‘What if it all changes?’ And it has. Just not the way I expected. It’s better.”
