Meet Jackie

The Owner, Jackie Oehlschlager

Hi! I am a lifelong learner with three post-secondary degrees with a servant’s heart who loves challenges! Life happens and has led me to starting my own business. If you want to know the whole story, check it out here. Below are the “cliff notes” to my life!

Wife & Mother:
Wife of aircraft electrician/former active duty Marine “Oorah!”
Mother of three

Mother Runner:
What’s a mother runner? A mother who pushes a stroller or sometimes just a mother running. I love participating in 10Ks and half-marathons. To date, I am at 15 half-marathons on two continents. My oldest daughter (born in July 2015) and I have over 500 miles together including four 10Ks, two half-marathons, a 20K, and a 10-miler as of January 2018 and my youngest daughter (born in February 2017) has completed two 10Ks and a half marathon with me as well.

Amateur photographer
I was gifted a nicer camera and have been learning to shoot better, more creative pictures with a challenge group I participate in on Facebook. One day, I’ll be able to take pictures of my kids and not pay for mini sessions every couple months

Traveler
In 2015-2016 and the first half of 2017 my family lived in Okinawa, Japan and we were able to travel to Australia and New Zealand…most people’s bucket list travel opportunity. The Australian koalas and kangaroos were amazing and the New Zealand people were very kind and welcoming. Of course, there was plenty to do and see in Okinawa, also known as the “Hawaii of Japan.” I have also been to 24 of the 50 states and look forward to many stateside adventures soon!
