Welcome back to another episode of The Jackie Serviss Show! Today, I’m sharing my thoughts on how to level up your talent acquisition game and move beyond the outdated “post and pray” approach. If you’re planning to hire or build your team in 2025, this episode is for you.
Here’s what I cover in this episode:
- Why Job Descriptions Aren’t Enough: While it’s important to create accurate job descriptions, simply posting them and waiting for the right candidate isn’t a winning strategy.
- Post and Pray Doesn’t Work: I explain why depending on job boards like Indeed or ZipRecruiter often falls short when it comes to attracting top talent.
- The Power of Proactive Sourcing: I share how you can take a more active approach to recruiting by sourcing, reaching out, and telling a compelling story about your company and the role.
- Human Connection is Everything: While automation has its place, it’s the human connection that truly drives successful talent acquisition. I talk about how to engage with candidates on a personal level.
- Creating a Holistic Strategy: I break down how to diversify your attraction tactics, using tools like LinkedIn, email campaigns, and direct invitations to stand out in a crowded talent market.
- Think Like a Pro: Inspired by professional sports, I explain why taking a proactive, scouting approach to talent acquisition is the key to finding the best candidates before you need them.
After 20+ years in the talent industry, I’m passionate about helping companies find the right people to unlock their next level of growth. In this episode, I share actionable advice to help you rethink your hiring strategy and set yourself up for success in 2025.
I hope this episode inspires you to take a more proactive approach to hiring and attract the talent your business deserves. Let’s go pro and make 2025 the year you find your dream team! _________________________________________________________________________

Welcome back to another episode of The Jackie Serviss Show. Today I am sharing a conversation I had with my friend Jenn Lamont on her podcast, UN- Comfortable Growth. We’ve shared so much of our journeys over the years—from fitness to entrepreneurship—and today, we’re diving deep into what it means to grow, evolve, and lean into the discomfort that comes with it.
Here’s what we talk about:
- The Power of Friendship Through Growth: Jenn and I reflect on how our relationship began in the CrossFit world and evolved as we each navigated major life changes.
- Why Discomfort is Beautiful: We discuss how getting uncomfortable can be transformative, whether in business, relationships, or personal growth.
- Jenn’s Journey of Pivoting and Thriving: Jenn shares her inspiring story of stepping out of her comfort zone, embracing career changes, and building a life that aligns with her values.
- Overcoming the Fear of Judgment: Both of us open up about moving past people-pleasing and learning to prioritize what truly matters.
- Choosing Growth Over Conformity: We explore how important it is to push boundaries, trust your intuition, and challenge societal norms to uncover your true potential.
- The Meaning Behind the Name "Uncomfortable Growth": Jenn and I dig into why this phrase resonates so strongly and how it sets the tone for this podcast.
This episode is all about embracing the messy, uncomfortable parts of life and using them as fuel for growth. Jenn’s story is a testament to the power of resilience, intuition, and staying true to yourself.

Welcome back to The Jackie Serviss Show! In this episode, I’m diving into one of my favorite topics—the timeless appeal of underdog stories and why they resonate so deeply with me. This reflection was sparked by a recent football game between my team, the Buffalo Bills, and the Detroit Lions. While I’m a die-hard Bills fan, I couldn’t help but cheer for the Lions, too. There’s just something so inspiring about their story.
After watching the game, I asked ChatGPT why humans love underdog stories, and the response aligned perfectly with my own thoughts: hope, relatability, empathy, surprise, and the challenge to the status quo. I’ve always admired the grit of the Lions under Dan Campbell’s leadership and the perseverance of Josh Allen, who overcame countless rejections to become one of the best players in the NFL. Their stories remind me of the power of resilience and the beauty of continuing to show up even when the odds are stacked against us.
Underdog stories connect to something deeply personal for me. I’ve faced moments of struggle, made mistakes, and had to rebuild. But just like these teams, I’ve learned to get back up and push forward, and that’s why these narratives mean so much to me. They remind us that hard work, perseverance, and belief in ourselves can lead to incredible achievements.
So, if you’re an underdog, a fan of the Lions, the Bills, or just someone who’s inspired by stories of resilience, I’d love to hear from you! Let’s cheer each other on as we keep challenging the odds and rewriting our own stories. Much love—see you soon on The Jackie Serviss Show!

Welcome back to The Jackie Serviss Show! In this episode, I’m diving into one of my favorite traditions for the time between Christmas and New Year’s—a reflective practice I call “Start, Stop, Continue.” This simple yet powerful exercise helps me take an honest look at the past year and set clear priorities for the year ahead.
I’ll walk you through how I use this process to evaluate all the core pillars of my life—business, fitness, relationships, and more. Together, we’ll explore:
- Start: What new opportunities or goals do we want to embrace in 2025?
- Stop: What habits or commitments are no longer serving us and need to be cleared to make space for growth?
- Continue: What worked well in 2024 that we want to build on and amplify in the new year?
For me, consistency was a game-changer this year, especially in my fitness journey with the Martell Fitness group. I’ve seen the power of staying the course, and I’m excited to double down on what’s working while creating space for fresh possibilities.
If you’re feeling reflective this week, I encourage you to grab a piece of paper, create your own “Start, Stop, Continue” list, and get clear on your vision for 2025. And if you do, take a pic, tag me on Instagram, and share what you’re bringing into the new year—I’d love to celebrate with you!
Much love and Happy New Year. Here’s to unlocking all the amazing opportunities 2025 has to offer.

Welcome back to the Jackie Serviss Show! This episode is all about navigating what I call The Messy Middle. This concept has shown up in many conversations for me recently, both personally and professionally. It’s the challenging phase of growth and transformation that often feels uncomfortable but is crucial to reaching the next level.
In this episode, I explore:
- The initial energy surge at the start of a new goal or endeavor.
- How the messy middle can feel heavy, sticky, and sometimes hard to move through.
- Why daily rhythms and consistency are the key to pushing through this phase.
- My own reflections on resistance and the importance of showing up even when it feels tough.
If you’re in the midst of a messy middle right now—whether it’s with personal growth, a business goal, or a major life transformation—this episode is here to remind you that you’re not alone. Growth isn’t always pretty, but it’s always worth it.
Key Takeaways:
- Allow yourself to feel the discomfort and trust the process.
- Consistent action leads to either a win or a lesson learned—both are valuable.
- Growth requires stepping into the unknown and embracing divine timing.
If this resonates with you, reach out and share your thoughts. Let’s keep pressing forward, one step at a time.

Welcome back to the Jackie Serviss Show! In this episode, I’m diving into a concept that’s been on my mind a lot lately: Separation Season. This time of year, from American Thanksgiving through to New Year's, is when many people tend to ease up on their goals. It’s easy to fall into the cycle of thinking, “I’ll start fresh in January.” But I’ve come to realize this pause can actually be a powerful opportunity to get ahead.
I reflect on how this mindset applies to health, business, relationships, and especially hiring. Waiting until January to start recruiting for key roles can create a ripple effect that slows your momentum in the new year. With an average eight-week hiring process for executives, starting in Q4 allows you to onboard and integrate new talent sooner—giving your business a real edge as you enter 2025.
In this episode, I share my personal takeaways:
- Why staying consistent through the holidays is a game-changer.
- How starting the hiring process now can position you for success in the new year.
- Why the holiday season can be the perfect time to attract top talent as people reflect on their careers.
I know firsthand that this is the season to press the gas while others are slowing down. If you’re ready to make 2025 your best year yet, tune in and let’s talk about how to keep moving forward when it matters most.

Welcome to the Jackie Serviss Show! This podcast has been on my heart for a long time, and I am so glad you are here. For those of you who don’t know me, I am Jackie Serviss- corporate veteran turned entrepreneur and people strategist. On this podcast we are going to talk about all things business, hiring, entrepreneurship, mom life, mindset work and spirituality.
In this episode, I share my journey, starting with growing up in Waterloo, Ontario and my competitive swimming career. Looking back, I can see a lot of correlation between athletics and business. Post- university, I landed a job at PepsiCo., and in my years working in corporate HR, I found myself always pushing for “what’s next”- the title, the salary, the lifestyle. All of this came to a screeching halt in 2012 when I walked into a doctors office and was diagnosed with a brain tumor. This news shifted who I was as a human and made me reevaluate all of the things I thought I had wanted and had been working towards. Today, I look back at this time and realize this is what created space for a new version of myself to be born.
Through my diagnosis, I discovered new tools that became pillars to unlocking the next version of myself. I continued on my path in corporate America, but as I continued to achieve goals- I felt empty. This led me to finally leave corporate America to start on a new path as an entrepreneur. Although building my own business felt overwhelming at times, the big shift of learning to trust myself led me to lean in which ultimately led me to where I am today.
If you are going through a dark moment or major shift in your life, it could end up being the thing that cracks you open for the next version of yourself to flourish.
Thank you for tuning into episode number one.

In this episode we are talking about how people strategy IS business strategy!
Through my 15 years working with leaders on growth, there has been one constant trend that differentiates leaders, those who believe, place emphasis on planning a people strategy with the same energy that they plan their business strategy WIN.
When you focus, as a leader, on building a team we enable that team to help us build the business.
How do you build a people strategy? Join me as I walk through how people strategy sessions will enable who you need on your team, in what roles and when. ___________________________________________________________

In this episode, we dive into organizational design 101 and I talk about a phrase I use daily with leaders, “boxes before people”. The episode will dive into why having clarity before hiring is so crucial for setting leaders up for success.
So many entrepreneurs hire reactively without understanding what BOX (role) they truly need to fill and how this box will enable their future growth. By creating a clear roadmap and deep understanding of who you need, in what roles and when we are setting the business, leaders and talent up for success.
Let’s dive in.
