The content was insightful, and we heard repeatedly that your delivery was engaging, fun and exciting. Your comedic approach helped people feel comfortable so quickly, kept things moving, and created such a great sense of community. You also gave us great language to use as a team to help us better collaborate and fuel our creativity.

A lot of people think wellness is only waify, gentle, sweet and it’s just maddening. This event seemed to represent that what we are, where we are, who we are in real life, is OK. Someone else is most likely there too, negotiating between introversion or outlandish excellence.

Not only is Jenn one of the most hilarious people I know, she rivals a fierce rock-star version of Chelsea Handler. Jenn’s message is one we all need to hear more often. By working on your inner-self you will be able to embrace all of the abundance the world has to offer.

Thanks for the time you invested in sharing with us at MYOB. I really enjoyed your candor and authenticity. It’s always refreshing to be reminded about how much value there is in being kind - truth delivered with grace.

The biggest takeaway for me is that by story telling rather than memorizing a pitch, it allows you to get to the personal/emotional level quicker with prospective clients. I feel that ultimately people buy things based on feelings more than practicality. As I continue to workshop the story of what I do, I feel bringing who I am and what I’m passionate about is what has been missing. It’s easy to give 30-seconds of facts but to allow the pitch to let someone know me and what drives me more I think will have an excellent impact on my conversion rates! You also presented how story telling works in such an engaging, funny, and impactful manner.

I loved the observation that many of us are multi-hyphenates, or at least passionate about many things. And thinking about the thread that ties those things together can open up how I think and speak about what it is I do. Thanks for your generous and positive spirit and for a great and useful conversation.

Pretty entertaining. And informative. Thanks. Appreciate you validating that being your authentic self…being real…is good! We’ve all been taught to be prepared with canned elevator speeches. I’ve hated them for years! Not going to vomit that out any more thanks to you.

Jenn was three things for our conference: full of actionable insight; entertaining and gifted as a speaker; and engaged with attendees. She quickly picked up the vibe of the event and pushed it forward. She was a huge hit with the crowd and a remarkable contributor to our event.
