Creating a stronger connection with yourself
A life in alignment with who you are called to be
– your Life All In
One on One Coaching
“Tell me what it is you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” Mary Oliver
Coaching is an intentional conversation where curiosity reigns, awareness is invited and permission is granted for you to show up as you for this wild and precious life. Coaching is a collaboration through which the connection to all the parts of you becomes stronger – thoughts, feelings, spirit, energy. The result? A space to see, feel, and inhabit all that is uniquely you. You are doing the next right thing for you – your version of A Life All In.

This is a space to connect with yourself and others, share experiences, get grounded in the here and now and receive energy for what is next.
The WELL: Foundations
Commit to nourishing yourself. This is a space for women to let go of the “shoulds” and open up to “I wonder…” This is a space for you to come together with others and gain awareness of where you want to go and in community begin taking steps to get there. This is a space that honors autonomy while also receiving from the collective.
The WELL: Foundations may be for you if:
- You desire a way of being that fully supports you.
- You are craving a more intentional, aligned life and want to do it in a supportive, safe, creative environment.
- You want connection and balance for yourself and with yourself.
- You are ready to do something for you; to build accountability with yourself
- You would be supported by honesty – including honesty about what is holding you back
The WELL: Mastermind
This is a whole-self movement: mind, body, soul, spirit. This is an intentional space for women to give their inner wisdom a seat at the table, ignite creativity as a tool for connection and wisdom and realign with themselves. This is where the values of connection, community and creativity reign.
The WELL: Mastermind might be for you if:
- You are seeking an intentional, sacred space for yourself to pause, notice and receive
- You want to nurture shifts that bring you into greater alignment with you – and allow you to connect with others.
- You want to be a part of a collective of women nurturing, challenging and supporting one another.
- You want to lean in, question and receive using a variety of tools – creative expression, somatics, guided meditation and energy awareness.
- You want to bring all of you – the silly, serious, sassy and sometimes somber.
Once in your life if you’re lucky, real lucky, you come across someone like Jen. Jen is energy, understanding, empathy and hope. Jen creates circles of women who grow to know and support one another. She helps women focus and find a path to accomplishing their goals, whatever they may be. For example, the ‘Well’ and Jen have been extraordinarily supportive of Anne’s Haven, a nonprofit I founded in 2016.
The ‘Well,’ which is the circle of women, is a combination of thought, conversation, writing and art. Each of these are carefully orchestrated by Jen to bring women closer to self-awareness and to having a
more enriching life.
It’s a process, a journey, an adventure that no one should miss.
– Janet D.
Jennifer is an exceptional coach and guide when it comes to personal growth. She knows how to establish a community (The WELL) that is fun, safe for exploration and unlimited in terms of creativity. I’ve been in one of her groups for several years and enthusiastically plan to renew again.
– Caroline S.
The WELL keeps me connected with women who support movement and transformation. Each month Jennifer’s gentle questions, guided meditation and creative projects bring us deeper introspection that encourage sharing. We always seem to converge on the heart of the matter, widening our view, compassionately supported in sisterhood.

About
A Little About Me
I am a life-long Chicagoan, office supply junkie and lover of really good pens. I went to school to be a Journalist then got certified to teach elementary school and landed in the nonprofit world. I enjoyed program development and volunteer management for over 20 years. What I learned in that time: I am passionate about collaboration. I am most at home creating space for others to see themselves and be seen. My Life ALL In.
Lovely to be here with you!
What Drives Me: My Values
Growth
Growth = engaging the spiral of learning, feeling, and integrating. Along the way I have gained tools, practices, and modalities. From Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and somatics to archetypes and lunar cycles. I combine intuitive guidance, powerful mind and body awareness, spiritual and energetic principles into a safe yet sassy space.
Connection (and Collaboration)
Connection makes the world go round. It was/is the connection between me and my BFF that inspired me to support others in feeling connected, truly connected to themselves and also others. Our connection was the impetus for me to say yes to her request for us to run a 5k; and our collaboration – her training with me – helped get me to the starting line. I had never run and I did not think I could. That 5k was a start of a new relationship with my body; my strength and power. Connection, collaboration and curiosity are at the heart of my coaching.
Creation
I am fueled by vision and creation. For twenty years, I created programs for nonprofits small and large with the goal of engaging participants and nourishing growth. I have created curricula, curated spirituality groups, developed and facilitated workshops. Creation and creativity is a tool for me and my practice. I believe everyone is creative because everyone creates….something! Creation and creativity is a way to see yourself and give voice to even the surprising parts within you.
Let's Connect
Curious about coaching or just want to chat? I would love to connect with you for a curious conversation or to explore if one-one-coaching or The WELL might support you. Drop me a line and we will go from there.
