“The ‘F’ words came about because someone asked me, how is it that you say something and it happens?” she explains. “And I have to say that about 16 years ago, I hit rock bottom and had some pretty hard days but you can only go up from there and the five “F” words helped me.”--Jerilynn Stephens

This interview with Emmy-nominated hairstylist and department head (you’ve seen her work on NBC's Songland, ABC's Shark Tank, and NBC's The Voice), Jerilynn Stephens happened on April 9, several weeks into coronavirus quarantine for Los Angeles-area residents. Stephens is the author of the book, “The 5 “F” Words to Manifesting Your Life”, and we asked her how she is tapping into the power of these words during these difficult times.

The Five “F” Words 

“The ‘F’ words came about because someone asked me, how is it that you say something and it happens?” she explains. “And I have to say that about 16 years ago, I hit rock bottom and had some pretty hard days but you can only go up from there and the five “F” words helped me.”

  1. Figure out what you want. “They all work together but this one must come first.”
  2. Focus
  3. Fearless action
  4. Feel it existing already. “I had to get into that feeling of, ‘I’m a Hollywood hair stylist’ before I was even in Hollywood.”
  5. Faith. “Faith in yourself, that you’ll be taken care of, faith that it will happen, faith in the universe.”
