the old game many people are playing -

I’m a Hollywood veteran of grueling hours, nonstop stress, ego-driven drama, unbelievable pressure, and endless people-pleasing, so I know all about being successful, driven, and at the top of your game – and still struggling with the private moments nobody sees that do not match the public wins, and leave you feeling like you’ve gotta just push through it

I see it all the time in the successful high-achieving leaders, executives, founders and entrepreneurs I work with who frequently experience sporadic swings in confidence, random spurts of self-doubt, stunningly severe people-pleasing issues, annoyingly persistent bouts of imposter syndrome, and profoundly disturbing musings about their worthiness

These are people who’ve built incredible things and know how to take care of business. They’re people who lead teams, launch big ideas, and hit impressive milestones. They’re crushin’ it on paper and yet, underneath that shiny polished surface, they’re quietly navigating success on the outside, but still questioning themselves on the inside

if you're still playing that game, I'll bet you -

Have a stressful, demanding job with unrelenting pressure, but despite your success, still doubt yourself, question your decisions, and wonder if you’re unworthy

Spend your waking hours building team morale, satisfying customers, and meeting investors’ expectations, and aren’t sure how much longer you can keep it up

Need to psych yourself up going to work, then mentally replay the day’s conversations coming home, but say very different things than you actually did at the time

Look around the workplace you’ve put your life and soul into building and find yourself in a panic about what the hell would happen if you messed up and lost it all

Constantly compare yourself to other people, measuring yourself against them, invariably coming up short, and always end up feeling inferior or just not enough

Enjoy running a successful business you created doing something you love, but deep down inside believe it was a matter of timing, good luck, and fooling people

Assume that everyone would judge and ridicule you if they knew what you really were, so you make sure they only see the you that conforms to their expectations

Think that if you know what’s gonna happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year you’ll be safely in control of your life and can finally breathe and relax

Are sleep-deprived, constantly stressed, terminally anxious, and only feel safe being yourself when you’re all alone, soaking in your tub with a drink in your hand

Regularly beat yourself up for being back in the saddle of not feeling confident and doubting your abilities and decisions, and then feel even shittier about yourself

And so…

You listen to self-help audio books or podcasts to learn about what you could be doing and how you could be thinking

You recite affirmations in the mirror every morning telling yourself that you are a successful and accomplished woman

You go to a therapist to try and discover something that happened in your childhood and made you are the way you are

But –

None of that stuff has moved the needle and nothing’s really changed…..

Jennifer really helped me see how I was repeating the same behaviors without even being aware that I was doing it. I thought I was coming up with new ideas, but I was still operating within my story about myself, what I thought I was capable of, and what I truly desired. She helped see myself from a different perspective and from that perspective, I discovered many things I’d been avoiding out of fear. Jennifer taught me an amazing new way of being that has shown me my value and given me the confidence to create the life I dreamed of.

I was referred to Jennifer by a colleague I’d told about wanting to leave my job and dreading starting all over again. Her expansive personality and mercurial attitude put me at ease and made me feel seen, heard, and understood. Working with her, I had a breakthrough around what Jennifer terms ‘things we don’t know we already know’ and finally understood that I already have a ton of tools and skills that are everything I need!

I’ve always been afraid of not knowing what was going to happen, but never saw how much that was holding me back from being myself and doing what I wanted to do. The idea that I was trapped in my own invisible feedback loop wasn’t even on the radar for me. Working with Jennifer, I started trusting myself and my decisions, and learned how to be more at ease with uncertainty as I followed my dream of being a digital nomad.

When my kids went away to college, my husband and I divorced. After thirty years of being a wife and a mom, I didn’t know who I truly was or what I wanted from my life, and I had no idea what to do about that. Jennifer helped me I rediscover my passion for fashion. After a year travelling in Paris, Milan, and New York, I created a business catering to empty-nester women seeking a new and polished style of dressing. And I am certain I would never have possessed the confidence to do all those things without Jennifer’s help.

this is a new game to think about playing -

what does Hollywood have to do with Confidence?

Working in the brutal environment of the Hollywood film industry isn’t easy –

the hours are grueling

the egos are challenging

the results are non-negotiable

the working conditions are strenuous

the next job we get is always an unknown

Each new movie or TV show we work on –

has a different script

has a different location

has a different film studio

has a different cast and crew

has a different set of challenges

Success for us means having a mindset that embraces our worth and an attitude that radiates confidence

And that mindset and attitude come from acquiring and developing some extremely powerful tools –

We aren’t trapped in an invisible feedback loop and mindlessly existing on autopilot because each movie we work on is different and flexibility is key to our success

We fully own our accomplishments and don’t guilt trip about acknowledging them because they got us where we are and articulating them is what gets us hired

We’ve trained ourselves to perceive similarities instead of differences in everything because seeing similarities turns the unknown into something familiar to us

We know exactly what we can bring to the table so we don’t fear uncertainty or risk because we’ve learned that we can trust ourselves and the decisions we make

We feel confident and at ease living as our unapologetically authentic selves because we know we’re recognized and valued for our unique brilliance

Needless to say, most people don’t work in a brutal environment like Hollywood

But their workplace is filled with toxic bosses, demanding clients, and competitive colleagues

and here's the thing -

These powerful tools are actually universal but they’re things most people never think about because –

It’s easier to exist on autopilot in an invisible feedback loop of what’s known
We are taught not to acknowledge our accomplishments or talk about them
We don’t question our beliefs that people and things are dissimilar or different
We don’t trust ourselves or our decisions, and are fearful of uncertainty and risk
We constantly compare ourselves to others and then decide we are inadequate

And the worst part is, most of us go through life without even knowing that all that shit just disappears when we acquire and develop these powerful tools

That’s what I mean when I say that I see you and I know you and it’s the reason I created my Hollywood Confidence programs

I never dreamed that movies could have anything to do with my C-suite job. But when Jennifer described the challenges of her job in the Hollywood film industry, I felt like she was talking about me and I knew that her expertise in overcoming these issues was exactly what I’d been looking for. Working with her has seriously leveled-up my confidence and strengthened my boundaries. I no longer fear making mistakes that would make me look bad or worry about being uncertain thanks to Jennifer’s focused perception of my situation and her invaluable guidance.

Jennifer is so confident and authentic, I wondered how she could know anything about someone like me who is not. But she was very open about her struggles in the Hollywood film industry in a way that made me feel safe and understood. Working with Jennifer has led me from reacting and taking offense to being intentional and confident. She helped me learn to acknowledge my legal expertise and stop trying to control the outcome of my cases out of fear of being judged.

I was under a lot of pressure in a new position and had begun to doubt myself and and question my decision-making abilities when I began working with Jennifer. Her insights on decision making in high stress conditions where the stakes are astronomical showed me that making decisions that aren’t always the right ones are a natural part of my leadership role. I learned that flexing into a different decision and communicating to my team engendered their respect and enthusiasm and was no cause for me to doubt myself or my abilities. I seriously believe I would not have regained my confidence without Jennifer’s help.

I was miserable and stuck in a demanding, unfulfilling, toxic job. As a widowed mom with a mortgage and three kids to support, I couldn’t see a way out. I was uncertain about what else might be out there for me and couldn’t risk leaving my job. I now run a thriving consulting company and I have much less anxiety in my life and way more confidence in myself. Jennifer helped me see that I was living on autopilot without even knowing who I really am or what I am capable of, just living in survival mode and fearful about the future of my kids, my job, and life in general.

if you haven't met me yet, here's my backstory -

I burned out and ran as far away as I could from my high-paying, soul-sucking job in the Hollywood film industry doubting my own worth, myself and my choices

In a 180-degree turn, I embarked on an adventure that took me from LA to Asia, from Asia to India, and on to Eastern and Western Europe before returning to the US nerly ten years later

All around the world, I encountered challenging scenarios showing me that Hollywood was the source of my mindset of embracing my worth and radiating confidence with authenticity as my lodestar

Confidence is my jam and showing people how to awaken to their worth and ignite their confidence by seeing how great it feels to be their unapologetically authentic selves is pretty much my mission in life

My programs are definitely not about ego-coddling therapy sessions, or hand-holding strategy meetings, or the cliche-laden superficial conversations that abound in coaching

They’re inspiring spaces of discovery and expansion that are completely relaxed, filled with humor, and devoid of judgment, while being totally real, highly focused, and very explicit

I created my signature Hollywood Confidence programs in celebration of you – the worthy, confident, uniquely brilliant creator of your life, your success, and your vision for the future

Hollywood Confidence awakens you to your worth so that you can ignite your confidence and take ownership of your power to embody an alignment of your outward success with your inner truth

I created it based on my life in the film industry to help you develop –

an attitude that embraces worthiness

a mindset that radiates confidence

ease at being your authentic self

I lay it all out for you without any –

devaluing drama

trivial platitudes

bullshit jargon

in a way that you don’t have to to figure it all out for yourself

And the fact that you can achieve results in a matter of months is worth celebrating…

Jennifer changed my life with one conversation. She told me about how she made the bold decision to Poland with no idea what was going to happen, with no job lined up or even accommodation. And that conversation catalyzed my own journey into the unknown in pursuit of a new business opportunity overseas I’d been hesitating over for months. Have a conversation with Jennifer today if you’re feeling stuck.
