Meet Jen
Origin Story
From Ambition to Alignment
Jen’s path to purpose began far from the stages and masterminds she leads today. As a college student in Missouri with big-city dreams of becoming a broadcast journalist, life took an unexpected turn when her parents divorced and her financial support disappeared. She put herself through school, balancing classes by day and bartending by night — graduating not with a dream job, but with grit, resilience, and determination.
That tenacity led her into media sales, where she spent more than a decade climbing the corporate ladder, achieving success by every external measure. But despite the accolades, she felt disconnected — successful, yet unfulfilled.
The Awakening
Marriage and motherhood prompted Jen to step away from corporate life, and in the stillness, clarity emerged. She recognized that her deepest fulfillment came not from sales goals or titles, but from empowering others to rise — particularly women who, like her, had built impressive lives but longed for something more meaningful.
While her coaching aspirations stirred, she temporarily set them aside to help build her husband’s dream — a thriving restaurant business in Redondo Beach. The venture became a community success story, but as she poured her heart into entrepreneurship, she quietly realized a deeper truth: purpose will wait patiently, but it will always call you back.
Resilience and Redirection
When the pandemic struck, Jen and her husband faced devastating losses — the closure of one restaurant, over half a million dollars in personal investment gone, and the weight of near financial collapse. It was a breaking point that became a turning point.
Amid the chaos, Jen experienced a moment of profound clarity. She saw how she had spent years channeling her energy into building someone else’s dream while suppressing her own. That realization — born out of a panic attack and a night of reckoning — became the catalyst for her reinvention.
She made a promise to herself: no more playing small, no more burying her gifts. It was time to rise, lead, and live her purpose fully.
The Rise of The Divine Design Method™
From that moment, Jen rebuilt her life and her business with intention. She merged her background in media, leadership, and entrepreneurship with her passion for personal transformation to create The Divine Design Method™ — a signature framework that guides women to reclaim their identity, realign with their purpose, and reinvent their future.
Her approach is both strategic and soulful, blending mindset mastery with actionable planning. Her clients experience life-changing clarity, renewed confidence, and aligned success — because Jen has lived the very transformation she now teaches.
