”I would absolutely recommend Jae. The discussions we had about work styles/expectations was so impactful to our working together and improving as a team. The content seemed non-traditional (in a good way) in that it was not department specific, but was a great use of our time toward the end of working better together as a team.”

”I found myself near tears while attending one of Jae’s seminars focused on Work-Life Balance as I had already recognized this was an issue in my own life but had not done anything to address it. Her insight and thoughtful delivery of the subject matter really makes you think about your own life and the employees that work for you. A must attend and first step for any business leader or individual concerned about work-life balance.”
