Through strength and courage, she found a way to escape and eventually married a kind and caring man named Sean. For a time, Jessica hit a wall in her songwriting. She wondered if her music career was over.

But when she started to use music as a means of healing, everything transformed. What followed is the lyrics of her open and honest song, ‘My History.’ 

“All my story now belongs to me

I will start to build a better life for me

No one else will know what I could see 

I am my survivor and you will be my history

Oh, I am my survivor and you will be my history

Oh, I am my survivor

And you are just my history”

On a blog post, Jessica wrote about the story behind the powerful tune. “As I reached a new level of healing about my past and childhood experiences, I began a song that I struggled to piece together. It took time and there were a number of iterations over the rest of 2017. But once it was finally done, this song succeeding in ushering in a new wave of original art. I was relieved and reaffirmed in my belief that writing and music are beautiful and essential parts of who I am. That is the space I continue to exist in and I am in the thrill of brand new exploration.”
