Eulogy for Jessica Harvey

Ladies and gentlemen, family and friends,

Today, we gather to remember and celebrate the life of Jessica Harvey, a woman whose journey was marked by profound challenges and triumphs. Jessica was a force of nature—resilient, compassionate, and deeply committed to making the world a better place, particularly in the realm of healthcare.

Jessica’s life was a testament to the power of perseverance. From her early years living with epilepsy to the life-altering surgery she underwent at the age of 17, she faced immense obstacles with a courage that was nothing short of inspiring. But it wasn’t just her personal struggles that defined her—it was the way she used those experiences to advocate for others that truly set her apart.

In her own words, Jessica believed that our souls’ journeys are complex and unique, shaped by the challenges we are capable of enduring. This belief guided her throughout her life, particularly in her mission to improve the way healthcare personnel care for their patients. Jessica understood, firsthand, the gaps in the system—the moments where empathy, understanding, and comprehensive care were lacking. Her experience fueled her passion for change, and she became a powerful voice for patients, urging healthcare providers to see beyond the diagnosis and to care for the whole person.

Jessica’s work in the field of ESG-focused finance was driven by the same values that guided her personal life. She was committed to sustainability, not just in terms of the environment, but in terms of human dignity and well-being. She believed that true healthcare means treating patients with the compassion and respect they deserve, and she dedicated herself to this cause through her advocacy, her volunteer work, and her role in mentoring others.

Her involvement in the “Rebel with a Cause” anthology was a natural extension of her life’s mission. Jessica wanted to shine a light on the crucial need for healthcare reform—specifically, the need for healthcare personnel to take better care of their patients. She understood that healthcare is not just about curing illness, but about caring for the person behind the illness, understanding their fears, their hopes, and their unique journeys.

Jessica’s life was one of service—to her profession, to her community, and to all those who needed a voice. She was a proud neurodivergent, epileptic brain tumor survivor who used her experiences to help others struggling with similar conditions. Her dedication to improving patient care will continue to inspire those who knew her and those who read her work.

As we remember Jessica today, let us honor her legacy by continuing the fight she was so passionate about. Let us advocate for a healthcare system that truly cares for its patients, one that recognizes the value of empathy, compassion, and understanding. Jessica’s strength, her resilience, and her commitment to others will live on in all of us who continue to carry her message forward.

Rest in peace, Jessica. Your legacy of compassion and commitment to better patient care will never be forgotten.

Former professional NFL star, Quinn Early, who is a dear friend and training partner of

Harsha Dandamudi, is a product of this exact Flow State training and had a 12-year career in the

NFL as a top 5 wide receiver during the 90’s. Quinn will be the first person to mention that 12

healthy years in the NFL is an unbelievable stat and the internal training regimen that he

practiced in the off season was the only reason he found so much success in the NFL. This is the

exact training Harsha has been developing and training himself and his clients for over two

decades even taking it to another level of efficiency in helping people find and harness their

peak potential. For any organization to perform at the highest level possible, there is a unique

and simplified approach that can be added to its system that will unlock one’s Flow State and
