What makes our day
Shivani Patel, VP Sales
“What surprised me the most in working with Jen is truly how quickly I was able to understand where I wanted to put an emphasis on myself and learn how to truthfully just be much much more confident in my abilities as a leader, in my abilities as a human.”
Kevin Johnson, Director of Development
“She has been great at holding me accountable, which is something I think is really really important and not letting me back away from some of the harder things that you have to do sometimes.”
Katy Engle, Head of Talent
“Jen has been an inspiring coach from day one. She’s helped me really tap into the place within myself that I feel the most powerful and confident. We always leave our sessions with a concrete plan of action, which is something I absolutely love.”
Pete Griffin, President & CEO
“Jen is really able to lead the conversation in a direction to get to the root of the problem. We’ve really honed in on something that may be an underlying issue that I didn’t recognize in the beginning.”
Asha Carroll, Associate Vice President
“Working with Jen has been a constant, present reminder that I am the person responsible for creating my own story. Jen has ignited in me a playfulness when it comes to problem solving, and with that, nothing feels insurmountable.”
Jordan Hatcher, Program Director
“The tools to quiet my inner critic allowed me to identify my strengths and quiet the voice that was telling me about my perceived deficits. Leaning into my strengths has helped me lead with courage, support my team to navigate tough moments, and to meet the demands of my organization.”
Katsuhiro Furuyama, Ascend Norcal Co-President
“When I invited Jen to speak, the feedback was immediate. People felt seen, energized, and more confident in their ability to lead. If you want a speaker who leads with heart, meets people where they’re at, and leaves a lasting impact, Jen’s the one to call.”
Ewan H., Head of Operations
“Jen is as perceptive as they come and somehow manages to unearth the hidden, scary places you need to grow into, while being a total delight to work with. I came to her hungry to understand myself as a leader and she met my commitment and curiosity with deep knowledge, biting questions, and complete humanity. Jen is astounding and essential.”
Austin W., venture investor
WOW. Time with Jen is a precious resource. After a coaching session, I feel empowered and excited to address my greatest challenges head-on. She’s extraordinary in her warm, thoughtful, and intuitive approach. I've found myself referring back frequently to themes and ideas from our sessions to help make decisions and to generate inspiration on an almost daily basis. It's been an absolute joy and privilege to work with her.
Karen D., healthcare
Jen worked with me to discover my values, strengths, and inner confidence. She guided me in creating a powerful, professional narrative that aligned with my personal values. It was perspective shifting for me. I used to be more in my head worrying, but Jen’s coaching opened new doors. Now I can generate strength within myself no matter what external circumstances. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Brigid M., M&A
Jen’s coaching has been fundamental to setting my company up for success and making me feel more confident and mentally prepared as a leader. We canvassed a range of topics: how to build credibility and trust, how to evolve my leadership style, how to delegate to junior team members. Since working with Jen, I feel more self-assured in my decision-making processes, more grounded in my values, and more equipped to handle tough conversations and moments. I feel lucky to be working with her and recommend her highly as a coach.
JC, private equity
Jen was adept at picking up my self sabotaging tendencies. She challenged those assumptions in a way that wasn’t confrontational. She gave me a structured space to articulate my thoughts and opened my eyes in a new way to what success looks like and how to find wins in ambiguity.
Jean Z., blockchain
I show up to Jen so stressed like I have brown muddy water in my mind. After I talk with her I feel so refreshed and optimistic. I know exactly what I want and what I'm going to do. I'm filled with self-confidence and courage to realize the competence I have.
Luke D., investing & finance
When working with Jen I felt listened to. She was focused and present. Her questions were helpful and probed a level deeper than I do on my own. I’m hyper logical and usually game things out as far as possible, but Jen asked me questions I hadn’t already asked myself, which pushed me in a helpful way.
