About Jan

Hello, and welcome to my “about” page. In the event you don’t know me, I’ll start by introducing myself as Jan Deelstra, and let you know how I can possibly be of service to you, personally.

Candidly, I’ll tell you that I rose from a life of insecurity, poverty, and victimization to become the confident, empowered founder of Winged-Women™ Academy. Now, as an international best-selling transformational author and advocate for women, I guide others to own their confidence, embrace their worth, and transform their lives with self-worth, freedom, purpose, and possibility.

In short, I’ve made a beautiful life by sharing my soul-based, spirit enhancing transformational tools with women who are eager to identify and release unhealthy, limiting beliefs, and to confidently and consciously create the life desired and deserved.
(Is this you? If so, you’re in the right place.)

Unapologetically, I will state that I have a passion for helping women rediscover their self-worth and embrace their authentic power. ALL of my creative content–books, eBooks, workbooks, podcasts, courses, blog posts, and offers are designed to empower women like you, with an arsenal of empowering tools that inspire transformation.

My personal journey has been one of turning struggles into strengths. It’s sometimes been a life experience of intense and difficult lessons, yet every single experience, regardless of how hard it may have been, came with its own reward. There is, I’ve discovered, a gift in even the worst events of our lives. It takes some reflection and insight, but I promise you, there is a blessing in the mire of every challenge. And each of these gifts are important pieces to your ultimate transformation. As an example, I will share that my first book, Blessings in the Mire: A True Story of Miracles & Recollections, came from the grief of losing my son to suicide. It took years to unearth the “gift” in the death of my child. I know it would sound laughable, if it weren’t so absurd. Eventually however, I was able to find the love that out weighs the indescribable pain, and come from the strength of my scars rather than from the gaping wound itself. There is tremendous power in that discovery.

My transformation has been one not unlike that of the butterfly–thus, the founding of the Winged-Women™ movement. The butterfly must struggle to break free of the very cocoon that fed and housed it, before it can spread its glorious wings. And that’s the way I feel about my personal metamorphosis, and about each and every one of the women I have been blessed to assist along the way. There is nothing more beautiful, in my estimation, than when a woman discovers her true self–discovers her confidence, learns to love and believe in herself, and embraces the rare glorious power that lies in her unique authenticity.

The tools that I discovered through my own transformation, I now share with any woman who wants to embrace her full-winged life–to live in beautiful, creative abundance, with just a few new awarenesses and gentle guidance. The life-changing self-worth enhancing processes that I have incorporated into my self-love toolbox are designed to build confidence, to enhance levels of self-love, and in short, to encourage expansive living, even if you’re an introvert (like I am!).

I believe that every woman has the ability to rewrite her own narrative and to soar in ways yet undreamed of. I believe this, because it happened for me. And it can happen for you too.

Whether you’re looking to manifest extreme confidence, financial independence, or fulfilling relationships, my mission–indeed, my life’s purpose and calling is to guide you toward the life you desire and deserve—one filled with courage, love, abundance, and limitless possibilities.

My intent for you, when you join the tribe of winged-women, is that you live a delicious life–one that feeds your soul and your bank account. It is that you follow a soul-feeding pathway of self-love and confidence, and that you then ripple that powerful frequency of self-love and unapologetic confidence outward, blessing all others who are blessed to cross your path.

Are you ready to consciously create the life you desire and deserve? Let’s create your next chapter together! Start by subscribing to the blog so you can start to receive empowering content. And visit the TOOLBOX to see what resonates. You deserve the life you desire. Start today. See you in the BLOG!

  • Sending out my first hex for the politicians who have no humanity. The hex text is a post if you’re interested in reading it. First hex of three today.
  • Since the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukranian witches have been sending various hexes to stop the war. To support Ukrainian witches in hexing certain fascists, and knowing that what I send out comes back, I am sending 2 hexes to the politicians who have lost their humanity. 

At 3:33 today, I will burn a bay leaf with the following hex written on it: “By fire, by flame, let hearts be swayed, The blind shall see, and truth invade. Where hate has spread, let love take root, May power soften, hearts be mute. Let all who harm, now cease their ways, Awake to kindness, light the blaze.” 

And at 5:55 I will light the second bay leaf that contains this hex: “As stars align and time unwinds, Let love replace the twisted minds. Let arrogance fall, let cruelty cease, Awaken now, and find your peace. To those who sow the seeds of hate, I bind your grip and seal your fate.” 

I hope you'll join in sending messages of hearts healing and for the return of humanity as opposed to fascism. It couldn't hurt, right?

7 Ways to Move from Emptiness to Fulfillment and Create the Life You Desire and Deserve

#createthelifeyoulove #createthelifeyoudesireanddeserve #createtthelifeyouwanttolive #womensempowerment #free
  • During the current zeitgeist of chaos and inhumanity, it's easy to doom scroll and hide beneath the covers; harder to get out of bed each day and focus on the things you can control, on the things that feed your soul, instead of all that threatens your wellness and peace of mind. 

I'm not saying don't be informed. Frankly, I can think of little else that's less palatable than an ignorant, uniformed person, or worse, a person who is informed, yet does nothing to create change in her world. 

Sometimes though, it's critical to bring in the focus to what you love in order to balance out the energies of what you loathe. 

This is a reminder to do more of what you love, to remember to breathe and to mindfully tend to your needs. We need you strong, and that means taking care of yourself, and doing more of what you love. 

Come and play on the playground: https://JanDeelstra.com

  • Does THIS resonate? On the outside, you’re confident. Accomplished. You should feel fulfilled. But deep down, there's that whisper... that quiet ache of not enough.

Why? Because if your self-worth is tied to external validation—applause, approval, or how others perceive you—you’re outsourcing your confidence to people who were never meant to hold it. That’s why so many successful women still feel unseen, unimportant, or unworthy.

Here’s the truth:
Self-worth is an inside job—it’s knowing you’re enough without permission.
Self-esteem? That’s borrowed. It depends on praise… and disappears when approval fades.

And here’s a surprising twist… 
👉 The women who most align with society’s beauty standards often have the lowest self-worth. Why? Because Western culture has weaponized beauty—selling unattainable ideals to keep women chasing (and paying for) “perfection.”

But true beauty? It’s not in airbrushed ads. It’s in your kindness. Your power. Your presence. It’s knowing your worth—without needing permission. That’s confidence.

So here’s your reminder:
You don’t need applause to be enough. You don’t need a mirror’s approval to shine. You were never meant to fit into a mold that was designed to keep you small. You were born to rise.
