Jessica Driscoll, vp of communications at Discovery Channel, once had a supernatural encounter. While on tour for a documentary, the filmmaking team convinced her to sit down with a  so-called medium. “Reluctantly, I agreed and the medium told me that she saw 3 healthy boys  around me.  Two years later, I had 3 sons under 2,” she admits. Aside from being mom to 3 small kids, Jessica was once an ice-skater and even trained at Lake Placid’s Olympic training complex one summer. She competed until she was 14 years old.
