About Disrupting Gracefully and Barbara Ann Jacques, PhD
What is Disrupting Gracefully?
Disrupting Gracefully is about breaking free from outdated systems, beliefs, and behaviors to create aligned, sustainable growth through coaching, consulting, speaking, and retreats.
The Philosophy Behind Disrupting Gracefully
"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."
– Buckminster Fuller
This quote serves as the foundation of Disrupting Gracefully. Instead of battling outdated systems and beliefs, we focus on creating innovative, aligned models that naturally replace what no longer works. Guided by this philosophy, I empower professionals and organizations to embrace sustainable transformation with grace.

“My past life regression with Barb was incredible to say the least! She guided me through a beautiful meditation to drop me into my body and access the part of my brain that holds the memories and messages, those that I only have access to in my dreams.
Our session went for nearly an hour and a half, but it felt like 15 minutes! I was able to recall details from a past life that informed me of trauma that has been held in my body, as well as where issues may have stemmed from regarding lack of voice, standing in my truth, and being seen and heard. After our session came to a close, I felt a sense of wonder, curiosity, and gratefulness for being shown what I needed to see, from my higher self.
Barb facilitated the experience with a beautiful calmness and comfort that made me feel safe and secure. I very much look forward to exploring deeper into my past lives in future sessions.”

““My father died this morning, peacefully and seemingly pain free. I was there and able to say goodbye. For the last two hours of his life, he was surrounded by the energy and symbols you taught me. I really felt that I made a connection with him even though his physical body was not conscious. It was the closest that I have felt to him in a long while. Once again, I am so grateful for your teachings. You are a very gifted individual with much to offer. Thank you for all that you have taught me and for being so inspirational.” ”

“"I was suffering from both physical and emotional pain when I asked Dr. Barbara to please send me healing energy. Her healing energy process was incredible. By that evening, my emotional energy had shifted, and I felt so much better." ”
