Jake left the city life and moved to rural Mississippi to learn more self reliance. Her background is in marketing and PR, and she was tired of depending on society to meet her daily needs. Jake raises goats on her farm, makes recipes from scratch, learned to make her own lip balm and other convenient goods, and she also started a blog named Gucci to Goats! About a month after starting her blog, someone from Cosmo reached out to her to write and article about her life. This interview with Cosmo catapulted Jake into more connections which led her to write her first book \"Daffodil Hill\". This memoir describes Jake's discontentment with society's unwavering faith in the corporate system. She also shares her dark days and soul's journey to finding peace and contentment. When Jake moved onto five acres of farm land and simplified her life, she was able to see more clearly her purpose and passion.\n\nJake has a desire to inform people on the beauty of self reliance and the confidence that comes with learning new skills. She is charming, witty, and compassionate! I know you will love this interview and also her book releasing on June 7th!"}
