“Jenny is great. Highly recommend. She's kind and an amazing listener, which are the hallmarks of a great coach. She offered to coach me after I made a Reddit post asking for help, and before our session we had an extensive back and forth to narrow down what we were going to talk about. Our session was incredibly helpful. It started with me feeling angry and frustrated about my job search and at the end feeling hopeful again. She listened and gave incredible advice on ways to not get burnt out during a job search. She reminded me that I had internal self-worth and value, despite the rejections, and reminded me to give myself credit for all the work I had done (because finding a job isn't a singular goal, but a journey). The job search process can be lonely, but it doesn't have to be. Jenny is a fantastic cheerleader and it feels great to have someone as amazing as her in my corner!”
