Testimonials
“Over our three years of coaching, I have grown tremendously as a leader. During challenging times, I am able to ground myself, reflect on my values, and respond with intention rather than reactivity or spiraling. I am much more strategic in my approach to my career and in how I lead. My self-confidence is much greater since working with Jennifer, and I feel much more effective as a leader.”

“Before I did coaching I was told it was life changing and I was skeptical. I can now say after working with Jennifer that it is truly life changing. It was the best investment i made in myself, my healing, my future. It was hard work, but she guided me with such steady comfort I was able to face the difficult moments and come out stronger.”

“Jennifer is an amazing listener – someone who can put together the many and varied pieces of what you share and put them back together in a way that you have never considered.”

“Jennifer’s coaching is a one-two love punch, filled with tenderness and toughness. She’s the compassionate and fierce mama-bear you want on your team when you are stuck and looking for the way through. She’s been a steady anchor for me as I’ve been working to bring an idea into the world, there to keep me going in our sessions and in her extra nudges between. She intuitively knows what’s beneath my habits and how to help me see them for myself. And it is impossible to describe how much it means to have someone else in the world so invested in my dream.”

“If you have any doubts about forgiveness, reclaiming your dignity, and letting go or accepting painful emotions, then I highly recommend joining this program. The support from the group, dealing with painful relationships, has freed me from long held beliefs about myself.”

“Taking part in this group was a great way to learn about forgiveness and explore better solutions rather than waiting for someone to apologize. Also wonderful to learn to forgive ourselves as well.”

“The process has essentially helped me hardwire effective strategies for dealing with difficult emotions. We also covered the concept of dignity and the importance it plays in the process of forgiveness. How dignity violations contribute to feeling trapped in the mindless cycle of reliving painful, traumatic events. After the first experience, I for the first time in a long time, felt I would be able to stop feeling trapped in negative internal dialogue about every situation that creates an opportunity to feel hurt. The process and tools have stayed with me as valuable resources in living a fuller life.”

“Instead of holding on to the anger that someone hurt you and has yet to apologize, writing the letter as if it is from that person was so liberating and certainly decreases the anger.
The faces of the women I was in the group with; the power of being able to recognize my hurt even in the face of what could be considered stronger hurt; the calming of certain pasts.”

“At the end of one of our sessions, I realized that Jennifer, in the truest sense is a physician. And as a coach, she brings the gentleness of her practice to life, putting me at ease with the process of forgiveness, and helping me find my strength and confidence to face difficult experiences that affect my ability to be a whole person – healed person.”

“Most of all, I learned about dignity and how to recognize my own and honor everyone else’s. By first preserving everyone’s dignity, I could find the path of forgiveness through all the emotions and hurts of the events.”

“The process of forgiveness and understanding emotions has given me tools to help me feel more confident processing painful experiences. I learned a lot about emotions, the layers to our feelings, that I did not understand, and that I can develop the ability to understand and manage in a much more sophisticated way. Especially as it relates to myself, how I carry un-manageable emotions in my body, essentially using them against myself, but learn how to release them in a healthy way. ”

“I was struggling with my job as an early faculty member at an academic institution. I’ve been working toward becoming a physician scientist but was having doubts about my path and what I truly wanted. I was also working through some issues with a colleague at my workplace that occurred early on during my job.
Having worked with Jennifer, I’ve identified the parts of my job that I truly enjoy and want to emphasize. I’ve also found ways to focus more on the pieces that are important to me. I’ve developed more confidence in the value I bring to my work.
I felt very comfortable opening up with Jennifer. Our sessions felt free of judgment and that really allowed me to explore what I wanted and where I wanted to go. I also felt that Jennifer’s background was similar enough to mine that she understood the things I struggled with.
Working with Jennifer was wonderful. It gave me room to take a breath and find my way again. I would recommend her to anyone who was struggling. Her compassion, wisdom, and kindness were instrumental in getting me to where I am now.”

“I started working with Jennifer at a time when I was stuck professionally and couldn’t find a way forward that felt authentic to my values.
After working with Jennifer, I’m much more confident in negotiating with leaders. I hold lightly to my ideas about my future, especially in my personal life, which were holding me back professionally.
The most helpful thing about our work together was having an objective person to talk to who was truly my coach! Jennifer once said to me that coaching is about action. That led to a lot of forward movement this year that was really healthy for me.
Jennifer is compassionate, kind, human-centered, and incredibly effective.”

“My work was no longer bringing me any satisfaction or joy, and I was completely burnt out. After several years of feeling under-valued and over-worked, I changed institutions. I knew I needed help to identify what went wrong over the last few years so that I could rebuild a career and life I wanted, one that I controlled.
Coaching allowed me to examine old habits and to decide what to keep, and what needed to be changed. Now, I leave work most days content with what I’ve accomplished that day and at peace with what I didn’t. I look forward to my evening and getting back to work the next day. I don’t dread opening my email.
I really believe this changed my life and will allow me to flourish, both personally and professionally, and to help others to do so as well. Jennifer asked me questions that no one had asked me for years, if ever, that helped me identify what invigorated me versus what I was merely tolerating.”
