Jenny shares her inspiring and honest journey from being a fifth-grade teacher to becoming a licensed clinical social worker and certified Adult Chair coach. We dive deep into what it means to live in soul alignment, follow the intuitive nudges, and trust the process of becoming who you're truly meant to be. Our conversation feels just like one of our lunch dates—real, reflective, and full of heart. Here's what we cover: Jenny's transition from teaching to therapy and how she navigated her "quarter-life crisis" The role intuition and alignment played in building her private practice How she discovered the Adult Chair model and why it transformed her work The difference between the Child, Adolescent, and Adult Chairs—and how they show up in our lives The importance of self-awareness, reparenting, and emotional resilience What it really looks like to take a leap of faith professionally and personally How therapy can be a creative, relational, and deeply intuitive process Tips for anyone thinking about starting their own therapy or coaching practice Whether you're a fellow therapist, someone seeking healing, or just curious about personal growth, this episode will leave you feeling encouraged and inspired.
