WORK WITH ME

You don’t need all the answers. You need the right questions.

You don’t need all the answers. You need the right questions.

You may already know more than you think. The problem is that when you’re standing inside a career, business, or life decision, it can be difficult to separate what’s true from what you fear, hope, assume, or simply haven’t considered yet.

I bring an experienced outside perspective, ask the questions underneath the question, challenge assumptions, and help you create enough clarity to decide what comes next.

My job isn’t to make the decision for you. It’s to help you see it clearly enough to make it yourself.

PRIVATE ADVISORY

Two kinds of conversations. One goal: clarity before commitment.

Two kinds of conversations. One goal: clarity before commitment.

01

The Threshold Intensive

For the decision that won’t leave you alone.

A private intensive for a consequential decision, crossroads, transition, or question where the answer isn’t obvious. We’ll use Data. Faith. & Guts. to separate what you know from what you’re assuming, make room for what matters but can’t necessarily be measured, and identify what you’re actually willing to do next.

Business-Building Advisory

Before you build it, let’s make sure the business actually works.

You have an idea. Before you spend significant time and money bringing it to life, let’s pressure-test it. Who will pay for it? What will it cost to launch and operate? What assumptions are hiding inside the plan? What are you forgetting? We’ll challenge the numbers, identify the gaps, and determine what needs to happen next before you figure it out the expensive way.

THE THRESHOLD

Some decisions don’t need another pros-and-cons list.

Some decisions don’t need another pros-and-cons list.

The hardest decisions usually aren’t difficult because you lack information. They’re difficult because there are competing truths. The safe answer and the exciting answer. The financially responsible answer and the answer you can’t stop thinking about. What worked for you five years ago and what fits the person you are now. Sometimes the question is whether to begin. Sometimes it’s whether to stay. And sometimes it’s whether you’re ready to stop. This is where Data. Faith. & Guts. becomes practical.

DATA

What is actually true? What do the facts, numbers, constraints, options, and evidence tell us?

FAITH

What matters that can’t be proven on a spreadsheet? What do you value, believe, want, trust, or know about yourself?

GUTS

Given both, what are you willing to choose and what action comes next?

BEFORE YOU BUILD

It’s much cheaper to discover a bad assumption on a spreadsheet.

It’s much cheaper to discover a bad assumption on a spreadsheet.

Starting a business creates momentum quickly. There’s a name to choose, an LLC to form, a website to build, software to buy, branding to create, professionals to hire, and a hundred other things that can make you feel like you’re making progress. But none of those things answer the most important question: Does the business make sense? Before building the machinery around the idea, we’ll pressure-test the business underneath it.

Who will pay for this, and why?
What exactly are you selling?
What will it cost to open the doors?
What will it cost to keep them open?
How much revenue will the business need?

What does your personal runway look like?
What are you assuming that needs to be tested?
What are you forgetting?
What needs to happen now, and what can wait?
Where do you need a specialist rather than another guess?

Credible is required. Perfect is not.

The goal isn’t to create a 70-page business plan or pretend we can predict exactly what will happen. It’s to understand the economics, expose the assumptions, identify the meaningful risks, and determine the smartest next steps before momentum starts costing you money.

A thinking partner, not another person pretending to know everything.

WHAT I BRING

More than two decades of executive and organizational leadership. The experience of building, funding, operating, restructuring, and ultimately selling my own company. An operator’s attention to numbers, economics, people, systems, and execution. The willingness to challenge an assumption even when it’s the one you really want to be true. Questions designed to expose what we don’t know yet.

WHAT I DON’T DO

I’m not your attorney, CPA, financial advisor, or therapist, and I won’t pretend to have expertise I don’t have. I won’t make the decision for you. I won’t tell you an idea is great simply because you’re excited about it. And I won’t pretend certainty exists where it doesn’t. When a question belongs with a specialist, part of my job is helping you recognize that and identify what you need to ask.

FROM PEOPLE I’VE HELPED

“Jenn has a rare ability to ask the question underneath the question. She listens deeply, challenges assumptions without imposing her own answers, and helps you separate what you know from what you fear, assume, or haven’t considered yet. She brings intelligence, intuition, practicality, and tremendous integrity into the room and she isn’t afraid to stay with you in the messy middle until the path forward becomes clearer. When the decision actually matters, Jenn is exactly the kind of person I want at the table.”

The Vibe

START HERE

Not sure which conversation you need?

Start with a complimentary 20-minute discovery conversation. Tell me what you’re wrestling with. We’ll determine whether one of these intensives is the right fit and, if so, which one. If I don’t think I’m the right person for the problem, I’ll tell you that too.

BOOK A DISCOVERY CONVERSATION

Bring me the mess. We’ll find the question underneath it.

You don’t need to have it figured out before we talk. That’s rather the point.
