Client Transformations

  • Mehvesh Islam

    Jenn provided a judgment-free, positive, focused, and comprehensive package that covered all aspects of career development. She helped me determine my strengths, the type of career that would suit me best, and clear path on achieving my career goals in the most efficient way possible.

  • Justine Purcell

    A transformative experience, overall! Jenn’s ability to intuitively guide the process is singular. I started a new role last week, after working with Jenn since August. But the new role is only a fraction of the rich and nourishing work we’ve done together. There have also been actionable insights, shifts in my perception, and a lot clearing of career cobwebs that accumulate just from working/being in the workforce. We’ve addressed everything from neurodiversity to dreaming braver dreams. I’ve learned more about myself and my own strengths (and blindspots) than I could have imagined. It's really the best give you can give to yourself. Much gratitude to you Jenn!

  • Lisa Straus

    Jen really listened to help me figure out what I needed and wanted. Helping me define what I needed from coaching to determine my next steps helped us formulate a plan. She kept me on track and really helped pull out what I didn’t even know I needed or wanted out of a role and career. She really helped me see my strengths and gave me the ability to clearly and concisely articulate them to senior executives.

  • Arash Rahimpour

    “I had a wonderful experience during my 12-week/90-day program with Jenn. Right out of the gate, we worked to established the goals that I was looking to achieve. The program that Jenn has created allowed me to have the self-discoveries, realizations and tools I need (via weekly discussions and exercises), which have been key in the attainment of my goals. Jenn is patient, empathetic, warm and quite knowledgeable in guiding you through this process. I can confidently say that I accomplished the goals we set at the beginning and Jenn’s coaching was instrumental in making this happen! I can’t thank her enough for her dedication to my success and would highly recommend her services to anyone who’s looking for a career coach.”

  • Jenny Aaron

    Description goesWorking with Jenn has been an invaluable part of reimagining my career in light of a necessary mid-career change. Jenn’s guidance and direction, coupled with her extensive suite of tools and resources, turned what initially seemed like an immense and daunting process into one that was enjoyable, enlightening, and even exciting. I would highly recommend working with Jenn.

  • Adea Coccoli

    Jenn is an incredible coach who cares deeply about my progress and success. She is thoughtful, warm and has helped me navigate my work and personal life challenges while providing me with the mindset and tools to succeed. There is not one person I haven't recommended her to.

  • Sarah Frame

    Jenn is truly a great coach, listener and connector. I learned a lot about myself through her program. I love how her program draws on many skill assessment tools used in the industry but then personalizes them and takes things to the next level of insight!

  • Benny Hua

    Jennifer took a customized and holistic approach in helping me change my relationship and identity at work for the better. First by grounding me in defining my core values, and expanding on how to carry those through in a healthier and more positive way at work.

  • Sheena Kanwar

    My coaching, led by Jenn, felt empowering ! I absolutely loved her ability to listen, hold the space, enable reflection and creation of tangible action steps - all in such a short span of time and so organically.

  • Cristina Commisso

    Jenn is excellent! An amazing listening who GREATLY helped me collect and organize my thoughts, feelings and needs in the work place. From there we developed easy but useful tips/methods to get me through the ups and downs of the work place. These tools will continue to help me be a better worker, but also a leader in the workplace!

  • Scott Weisbrod

    Working with Jenn has been a transformative experience for me in terms of better understanding what energizes me in life and work. It’s unbelievable that 20+ years into my career there was still so much to learn about my values and the kind of impact I want to make professionally. Our work together has helped me hone in on that vision and has become the basis for how I’ll approach the next 20 years of my career.

  • Rajiv Koghar

    Finding myself facing an uncertain road ahead, I entered into a 12 week working arrangement with Coach Jenn with the goal of finding a clear direction and career path. After completing the term, I can say that Jenn has the foundations of a professional coach, and is up to date on the coaching literature out there. However, she has her own style, driven by an inner fire to support people who want their professions and career path to be more aligned with who they are, their values, their strengths. “
