You’ll hear Jen spill how coaching helped her transition from ‘corporate weenie’ (her words) to full-time entrepreneur and powerhouse CEO of her successful consulting company.

- “What I do matters. I'm worth what I think I'm worth. And maybe even worth more than I think I'm worth.”
- “A coach is a partner with you in every sense of the word. It’s that relationship that has truly enabled me. When I said, ‘I can't,’ you’ve been the voice in the back saying, ‘but you can.’”
- “Coaching is what brought me to where I am today, and it's helping me set up for my success long-term.”
- “I don't want to be a corporate weenie anymore.”
- “Let's go take over the world.”
- “You're worth more than just the hour that you work.”
- “Whatever decision you make is the right decision for you.”
