Reflections By JVB Entry - 1
Welcome!
Thank you for visiting my website. Whether this is your first time here or you’ve followed my journey for some time, I want to personally say how grateful I am to have you as part of this space.
This website marks the beginning of a rebirth, a restructure, and a renewal of Jordan Victor Brown. Over the past two-to-three years, I’ve walked a road of transformation that I never saw coming. For years, life was a whirlwind—always moving, always on the go. It wasn’t until the universe pressed pause that I realized I’d never truly stopped to take inventory of my life. I now understand that sometimes life has to slow us down so we can process, reflect, and, ultimately, understand what the lesson was there to teach us.
Had I not faced the tumultuous years I did, I don’t think I would have arrived at this version of myself. I might still be rushing forward, too busy to live in the present. Writing my memoir, The Blessing of Transition: Finding Strength in Change, was both a challenge and a gift. What started as scattered journal entries has blossomed into something I am deeply proud of. I’ve kept journals since I was young, but the real work began in the past two years as I sat with my truths, faced my trauma, and poured my heart into each word.
During this process, I was also in therapy, which allowed me to work through the emotions that came with revisiting my past. You’ll see two photos in this entry, capturing moments of me in that space—writing, reflecting, and healing. These photos remind me of the power of leaning into the discomfort to create something meaningful. Though I’ve always valued my privacy—not because I had anything to hide, but simply because I was busy navigating life—I now see that the experiences we go through aren’t just for us. They are meant to be shared, to become blessings for others.
Sometimes, life forces us to dig deep, to go down to the root. It’s not easy. There are tears, questions, and moments of doubt. But one thing I want you to take from this reflection is this: you are never alone. Your test can become your testimony, and there is no shame in that. Don’t be afraid to share your story. You never know whose life it might touch.
I invite you to come back here periodically to read Reflections By JVB. There’s no set schedule—I’ll write as inspiration strikes. I also encourage you to subscribe by leaving your name and email on the home screen.
