What If You Could Build Consistent

High-Impact Habits of Body, Mind, and Soul?


“It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be grounded down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal.”

 

~Pope St. John Paul II


 

Do you want to be at your best, but you struggle with:

 

→ Not knowing what to devote your time to while trying to "do all the things"

 

→ Feeling exhausted all the time while living in a constant state of "brain fog"

 

→ Being hyper-critical of yourself when you "fail" or let people down

 

→ Health challenges that you just can't seem to resolve (despite knowing what you "should" be doing)

 

→ Constant stress and overwhelm that's making you look and feel years older than you are

​​​​​​​

→ Not being able to build or maintain consistent habits in all the important areas of your life

What if there was a better way?

This is high-performance coaching like you’ve never experienced before. 

This is the Catholic Path to Excellence

The Catholic Path to Excellence is a group coaching program for driven Catholics who want to excel in every aspect of their lives by developing high-impact habits of body, mind, and soul that will increase their capacity and resilience--all while growing in health, skill, and intimacy with the Lord.

I want to be on the Path to Excellence

Imagine what your life

would be like if...

You were living out your God-given mission with confidence and energy...knowing that you weren't taking anything away from your obligations as a parent or spouse.

 

You were able to prioritize your prayer practices, stick to boundaries around your sleep, and have clarity in your business--all while feeling a sense of community with other high-achieving Catholics. 

 

You felt peace around balancing your work and family commitments with taking great care of yourself. 

 

You were confident that you could stick to any habit you choose--that you could trust yourself to do what you said you would do when you said you would do it.

 

You could consistently eat well, exercise, sleep better, and organize your days--all while growing in your relationship with God and having a spiritual battle-plan that was bearing fruit in your life. 

 


This is not only POSSIBLE for you--it's PROBABLE.

You just need to get on the right PATH.


How it Works: The P.A.T.H.

  • P = Pathway & Portal 

    When you join the Catholic Path to Excellence, you will be guided to the "Pathway for Catholic Peak Performance". The 18-step guided path will show you exactly what habits to focus on and in what order to achieve the best results in the shortest amount of time. You will also get access to a member's only portal that includes a robust library of video training and courses on topics related to excelling in body, mind, and soul*. 

     

    *See a complete list of what's inside the portal below. 

  • A = Action & Accountability

    You won't be on the path alone. Every Monday you'll receive an email reminding you to set your intentions for the week and to join the weekly group coaching call. In this call, you'll get a brief 10-15 minute training on a high-performance habit or focus area, then the ability to get coached on the obstacles and "mind drama" that you'll face. By the end of this call each week, you'll have a clear idea of exactly what habits you'd like to focus on for the coming week as well as how, when, and where you'll get them done.

     

    You'll also have access to a private Slack channel where you'll have access to continuous "micro-coaching" on any areas you need more support. Like-minded Catholics will be also be cheering you on every step of the way.  

  • T = Tracking & Review

    In The Catholic Path to Excellence, you'll receive your own personalized Rule of Life Tracker, where you'll be guided in building your rhythms and routines, tracking your habits, and developing your ideal weekly schedule. This is the "missing ingredient" for most people who try (and fail) to build lasting habits. With your Rule of Life Tracker, you'll build the systems you need to sustain your new habits in the long-term. 

     

    You'll also be invited to a Weekly Review Co-Working Session via Zoom every Friday, where you'll be guided in conducting an efficient and effective weekly review that allows you to gauge your progress, tweak your systems, and celebrate your wins. This habit alone is enough to supercharge your progress in every area of your life. 

  • H = Habit

    The goal of The Catholic Path to Excellence is to help you build sustainable, high-impact habits of body, mind, and soul that will enable you to excel in every area of your life. Once you've established habits in one area, it's time to tackle the next habit, so that you'll always be making progress in an upward spiral. Since we won't "arrive" until we're Saints in Heaven, you'll always have something that you're working to improve here on Earth.

“I can honestly say that every part of my life has been positively impacted! My clothes fit better. I'm happier in general. My mental health has improved and my sleeping is so much better! I have time in my day to do the things that I should do as well as to do the things that I want to do.  Getting coaching with Jessica has been one of the most pivotal decisions in my life.

You'll Also Get These Bonuses

I want to help you succeed in every way possible, so I'm including these bonus workshops and resources.

  • Workshop: Healthy Eating on a Budget $97

    It can be hard to eat well when you're short on time and money--in this workshop, I'll teach you a simple and efficient way to meal plan, shop, and prep healthy and delicious recipes.

     

    Save time and money while improving your health.   

  • 24 Weekly Meal plans, Shopping Lists & Recipes $297

    Save hours of time each week with 6 months of gluten-free, dairy-free meal plans at your fingertips.

    Each weekly plan includes a shopping list and all recipes, so you can easily use them as written, or just pick and choose what meals you'd like to make.

  • Workshop: Creative Homemaking Strategies for Working Parents $97

    How can you manage a household, children, and a business--while also striving to be at your best? 

    You'll learn tips, tactics, and strategies to streamline your home management in this workshop.

  • Guide: 50 Books Every Catholic Entrepreneur Needs to Read $47

    Leaders are readers. 

    But it can be hard to know which books are worth your time--and which you should pass on. 

    This list of 50 non-fiction and fiction books is a great place to start. With books on personal development, Catholic spirituality, entrepreneurship, and quality fiction, this book list is sure to edify and enlighten.  


“Before working with Jessica, I was so tired of being morbidly obese and doing crash diets where I lost 60 lbs in one year to gain it back the next year. I realized that my problem wasn’t solely what I was eating, but that I needed someone to help me dig deeper and help me with the thoughts that were preventing me from achieving my goals. I’ve had life coaching with different coaches before, and I truly believe Jessica has been the one coach to finally help me turn my spiritually empty, unhealthy and overly critical self back to the woman who knows she is loved by God and who can comfortably experience negative emotions instead of turning to food.”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If you have any questions that aren't on this list, feel free to reach out to me at jessica@athrivingcatholic.com. 

How long does The Catholic Path to Excellence last?

As long as you want it to! You will have immediate access to all of the resources and an open invitation to attend weekly coaching and co-working sessions.

 

There's no rush and no need to feel like you're "behind" or you can never catch up--you set the pace. 

 

When you join The Catholic Path to Excellence, you'll be given immediate access to the online Portal and the Guided Pathway. You'll also be invited to book a 1:1 onboarding call.

That said, if you want to focus on completing each "step" in the Path to Excellence in as little time as possible, you could expect to spend about 4-6 months completing everything. I highly recommend starting again at that point--we always need a refresh on these habits!

When are the weekly training/coaching meetings?

We meet via Zoom for approximately 60 minutes each Monday at 7 AM PT/10 AM ET for Our Weekly Training and Group Coaching Call.

 

You are invited to join a Weekly Review Coworking Session each Friday at the same time (7 AM PT/10 AM ET).

What if I can’t attend live? 

All training/coaching calls will be recorded and available as a private podcast, so you can always watch the replays when you have time.  You can also submit any questions in advance and I will answer them live on the call.

 

You'd be amazed how much value you can get from listening to other people get coached on the same issues you're having!

Does this replace spiritual direction? 

No, this program does not replace spiritual direction. I would recommend that anyone wishing to pursue spiritual direction find a qualified trained spiritual director. 

 

That being said, this program will push you to grow spiritually and encourage you to follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit to grow in your own spiritual life. 

 

Is this only for entrepreneurs?

No, this program is open to any mission-driven Catholic who wants to radically improve their physical, mental, and spiritual health.
That said, this program was originally designed with Catholic entrepreneurs in mind, so some of that language remains--it doesn't change the fact that you can be a mission-driven SAHM, homeschooler, or employee and still benefit greatly from this program!

 

What if I don’t have time for another “thing”?

I get it–we’re all busy.  But the reality is that investing a little bit of your time and energy in high-impact habits that are going to maximize your energy, focus, productivity, and peace will pay dividends.  You will be able to accomplish more, better, and with less stress. 

 

The great news is: with Lifetime Access to the program you can pick it up and put it down whenever you need to.

 

Are you in a busy season? Then take a break and come back when you're ready. You never need to worry about "falling behind".

How will this help me be better in my business? 

You are the greatest asset in your business–as well as the “choke point” for growth.  Investing in yourself: your health, your skills, and your reliance on God–will enable you to become the best version of yourself and to perform at the best of your ability. 

I don’t think I can afford this. 

You’ll have to do your own cost-benefit analysis here.  How much is poor health going to cost you in medical expenses (or costing you now in lost sick days)?

 

What are the opportunity costs of not using your time well or growing in skills that enable you to perform better? What does it profit you to “gain the whole world, but lose your soul”? 

 

That said, The Catholic Path to Excellence is significantly less expensive than 1:1 coaching or what you would pay to earn all the skills included in individual courses.

 

You can also think of it as a one-time investment that you will continue to benefit from for years to come since you'll have lifetime access to the portal and coaching calls.

What if I don't need all the topics included in the portal? I already know this stuff.

It's likely that you're already doing great in some areas and need more help in others.

 

The beauty of The Catholic Path to Excellence is that the strategies and tactics that you'll learn in coaching each week, the regular accountability, Rule of Life creation, and habits scaffolding that are all built-in to the program will be valuable no matter what habit you're working on.

 

Even if you never use any of the guided pathways or portal content, you'll still get so much value from everything else included in The Catholic Path to Excellence.

Will this really work for me?

No, it won't work FOR you.
But you will have every possible opportunity to work FOR YOURSELF to improve every area of your life.

 

With regular accountability and coaching, training on high-impact habits, proven systems, scaffolding habits, and a supportive community, you'll have the best chance possible to make lasting changes in your life.

 

But just in case the science-backed habit formation strategies used in The Catholic Path to Excellence don't yield the results you'd hoped for--you have a 60-day money-back guarantee.

 

Just give it a try for 60-days. See what happens.

“Hiring Jessica will be the best decision you ever make for yourself, your family and your work. I thought I knew a lot about healthy habits before I met Jessica, but it turns out that there was SO much I didn't know. She is a wealth of knowledge and experience and a great guide. Jessica is the best cheerleader - even when I thought I had an awful week, she helped me see all the wins and progress I had made on my health journey. Working with Jessica is so valuable in that she helps you identify the root cause of what is keeping you stuck and helps you make progress with little shifts. If you are stuck in any way, Jessica is likely the "missing ingredient" in your health journey - she will help you with your mindset and the shifts you can make to obtain optimal health and peak performance.”

Meet Your Coach

Jessica Castillo

Catholic Life Coach | Certified Health Coach


Hi, I'm Jessica, a wife, mom, former Army Officer, and the founder of A Thriving Catholic.

 

I've had a lifelong passion for excellence and high-achievement--desires that drove me to graduate first in my branch from The United States Military Academy at West Point and go on to earn Officer of the Year accolades during my time on active duty service and through two combat deployments to Iraq.

 

But after years of relying on my own strength, talents, and abilities to achieve a worldly standard of success--I hit a wall.  I realized that I was working for a perishable crown and chasing the wrong goal. 

 

When I turned to God and asked him to show me his plan for me, he revealed how every desire for excellence I've ever had can be more than fulfilled in service to him. I could offer him all of my gifts, talents, and skills, and he would multiply and magnify them beyond my wildest dreams--and use them to fulfill a purpose that he uniquely created me for. 

 

Since then, it's been my mission to lead other Catholics on this path of excellence and service. It's my goal to create an army of faithful Catholics who have the energy, strength, focus, and fortitude to do the important work that God has created them for. 

What if this doesn't work for you?

60-Day Money Back Guarantee

With regular accountability and coaching, training on high-impact habits, proven systems, scaffolding habits, and a supportive community, you'll have the best chance possible to make lasting changes in your life.

 

But just in case the science-backed habit formation strategies used in The Catholic Path to Excellence don't yield the results you'd hoped for--you have a 60-day money-back guarantee.

 

Just give it a try for 60-days. See what happens.

 


"Jessica is an exceptional coach who genuinely cares about her community’s success. Her micro-coaching is incredibly supportive, and the group calls offer accountability and encouragement. Her well-thought-out and engaging lessons and homework assignments have helped me make the necessary tweaks to live a healthier lifestyle. With her guidance and support, I am eating better, sleeping better, and get more movement and prayer in my day."

 

~Stephanie D.
