Jen’s passion lies in guiding women through a transformative journey of self-discovery, all viewed through the lens of gratitude. She empowers her clients to tap into their inner power to create and live their best life.

Credentials speak to her expertise but Jen believes it’s the unique blend of life experience in addition to formal training that allows her to successfully guide clients. Jen's personal journey was far from a smooth path; it was marked by mistakes, fears, and guilt. Replacing guilt with gratitude made room for mistakes to become stepping stones to success.

Today when she and her husband are referred to as "empty nesters," she chuckles at the label, for her nest is anything but empty. Her two adult children have flown the coop but Jen still cares for 24 animals 24/7, including 18 rescued therapy animals for her nonprofit Kindness Shared Happiness Squared.
