Chasing Brighter Season 5 Trailer: Reset, Rest, Reconnect

What if every season of life deserves to feel brighter?

Chasing Brighter began as a guide for women in midlife—but this season, we’re expanding the conversation. Because no matter your age, your season, or your story, you deserve joy, growth, and connection.

In Season Five, Jessica and Kelly invite you into a deeper, more honest space—one that celebrates realness over perfection and growth over pressure. This season is about connection, authenticity, and permission to be exactly who you are.

Real is the new perfect—and we’re just getting started.

February Theme: Reset, Rest, Reconnect

February on Chasing Brighter is all about turning inward and gently starting again. While Valentine’s Day often focuses on romantic love, we’re shifting the focus to self-connection.

Winter invites rest, reflection, and slowing down—so we’re leaning into that energy with tools and conversations to help you:

  1. Reset your mindset and nervous system
  2. Rest without guilt
  3. Reconnect with yourself before reconnecting with others

We started chasing brighter for women in midlife. But what if every season of life deserves to feel brighter? We all go through stages in our life where maybe we have different phases of unhappiness or not feeling a lot of joy. And that's why we want you to feel brighter. So this season, we are expanding the conversation. More stories, more realness, more permission to be exactly who you are.

We know it's Valentine's Day, but sometimes in order for you to really be connected with others, you need to kind of reconnect with yourself as well. it's winter, and while we're all bundled up, this is a great time for reset and rest. we created a free seven-day brighter challenge, a self-love reset test.
