Hey — I’m Jen. 👋

I’m a holistic life coach who helps people build the skills to meet their lives with more steadiness, clarity, and agency — especially when they’re at a crossroads.

I work with people who are thoughtful, capable, and often carrying a lot. People who want to feel more aligned with who they are and how they’re living — not by optimizing themselves, but by slowing down, getting honest, and making intentional choices that they feel stoked about.

I’m not perfect (in fact, I hate that word). I genuinely welcome your feedback so I can improve, but I will never be perfect.

My stance as a coach

I’m not interested in surface-level insight or performative growth.

I care about you leaving our work together with real skills: the ability to regulate your nervous system, get clear about what actually matters to you, and take integrity-driven action — especially in uncertain times.

My coaching is grounded, practical, and human. We work with what’s real — your body, your patterns, your values, your actual life — not a theoretical version of who you think you should be.

Why this work fits me (and how I show up)

My private coaching practice was formally shaped through two accredited coach training programs. But people who know me well often say, “This is what you were always meant to do.”

I’m naturally introspective and deeply curious about others. Since I was a kid, I’ve had self-help and personal growth books crowding my nightstand. Long before coaching was a profession, it was my way of orienting to life.

The human context I bring into the room

I’ve been an entrepreneur since 2018, a former marketing leader at high-growth tech startups, and the founder of Zest — a company I created to bring skill-based, regulation-focused support into the workplace.

Outside of work, my life is shaped by dance, movement, parenthood, partnership, and community. I’m a wife and mother to two young daughters. I’m a Spanish speaker with a deep love of Latin America.

I’m a survivor of sexual assault, which informs my deep care around consent, agency, and safety - both in coaching and in life. I’m a dancer and sensual movement advocate who believes the body is not an accessory to growth, but central to it.

All of this shapes how I coach.
