“Working with Jesse has truly been life changing. I cannot adequately express my gratitude for this incredible human and how she’s changed my life.I didn’t realize how much I was carrying, how heavy it had all gotten and she helped lighten the load by helping me discover me and who I am and what I really want. 

We talk through it all- personal/professional…everything- it’s all more connected than I realized. This work is not only beneficial mentally and professionally, but also physically. When we first started working together my stress hormone was off the charts and it was affecting my body and causing me to experience terrible symptoms. 6 months later I had my labs done again and everything was in normal range and I feel so much better! 

This work isn’t easy, but if you’re ready to feel like the most authentic version of yourself then start this journey with Jesse’s guidance! It’s one of the best decisions I could have made for myself!”

I’ve had the privilege of working with Jesse for the last 16 months. In that time, she has become one of my most trusted leadership advisors. She has coached me through significant transitions and is working with our leadership team to guide us through a transition that will transform the culture of our 40-year- old company. Her depth of leadership knowledge coupled with high EQ and a calming presence help create a space in which we can be transparent. Silicon Valley had Bill Campbell. If I had the budget for an onsite full-time coach, I would invite Jesse to fill that role for our firm. Everything rises and falls with leadership, and Jesse completely gets that and works to get everyone focused on that truth to lay the proper foundation for success.

Kindness came to mind first, but it’s more than that. Jesse is a great listener and ALWAYS brings a positive perspective. As a leader, you don't often get the thanks and praise that people often desire. She has built my confidence and reminds me often of what I have built. During Covid, Jesse was instrumental in supporting my team from a mental health perspective. The message I heard over and over again was, “Confidence. You are doing what you set out to do. Build a business, pay your children's tuition and enjoy the ride and moment.”

From our very first meeting, I knew I had selected the perfect coach who could guide me through navigating a career transition and new big opportunity, as well as an expanding family. Her thoughtful preparation and wise reflection created an environment grounded in trust, where I immediately felt safe to discover (and say aloud) new thoughts, ideas, and introspection. Working with Jesse has been one of the best gifts I have ever given myself.

Jesse believes in the fullest of human potential to be a force for good, no matter their vocation or avocation.  Therefore, she seeks to know …. really know her clients so that they can begin to know themselves. She has encouraged me to be brave and whole in my work, thus helping me to achieve my intention to elevate humanity through our work at Freeman.

Working with Jesse literally changed my life. Through her expertise, intuition, and wide range of experiences, we were able to crystalize in one day together what I had been waiting/working for 20 years to clearly understand: my unique calling and how to manifest it in the world an accessible, impactful, and sustainable way.
If you have a sense that you’re called to create something new, but don’t know if/how it’s viable, Jesse is an excellent listener, and can help you crystalize the essence of your work and forge a new path to deliver your work in today’s changing culture and marketplace.
I highly recommend working with Jesse. She is a beautiful alchemical product of expertise, intuition, and care.

Jesse is a gem. Working with her has been and continues to be nothing short of empowering and inspirational. She has the unique ability to be mindful in conversation that allows her to be an empathetic listener, pose significant questions, and create innovative and impactful strategies and solutions.

It is obvious her passion lies in helping others tap into their potential to achieve the fullest expression of themselves as humans on earth. I am so grateful for Jesse's selfless guidance and dedication to helping me fulfill my mission in life. Passion + action changes the world. Onward.
