"Great coaching is a delicate balancing act.

Some coaches can be too hard (if I just wanted to feel badly, I could ask my parents for advice!)

Some coaches can be too soft (it takes both courage and tact to deliver a difficult message effectively).

I have hired Jen as both a coach and consultant on several occasions.  She has always been just right!"

Training and Development Manager

"Jen was my coach and mentor for many years.  She was instrumental in attaining my “dream job.”  The fact that she challenged me to consistently find answers to questions I had and always held me accountable to the goals we set together helped me succeed.  She always did this in the most respectful way!    Even now, I know I can count on her being genuine, compassionate, and provide me with honest and timely feedback that makes me a better employee."

Training Specialist, Starbucks Coffee Company

"Jen has helped me recognize patterns in my life that hold me back.  Supporting me through these changes in behavior, she provided simple, effective tools that were useful in my personal and professional life.  I often reflect on the advice she has given me.  It has helped me manage the challenging times.  I have become stronger and more self-aware because of our conversations.  She’s a positive and inspiring woman." 

Human Resource Manager

"Jennifer has a skill in finding, or assisting her clients in finding, the root or source to what's "off" in their world. Her ability to think outside the box and come up with new and interesting ways to approach a topic was just what I needed.

Jennifer knows her world of "simplification" and had me constantly asking for more. I would recommend anyone to Jen who wants to get results, who wants to improve their present condition, anyone that would like to grow.”
