From the outside, Jenna’s path looked like a masterclass in high achievement. She navigated elite spaces early on—from Phillips Exeter Academy and UC Berkeley to Yonsei University, Cornell, and Harvard Extension School, mastering systems of trade, finance, and corporate innovation.

But behind the credentials and the protective shield of fierce independence, she was privately processing a heavy, generational weight.

Growing up, Jenna watched her mother carry the exhausting burden of a “single married woman”—a woman isolated within her own home, surviving on endurance, and entirely cut off from her own freedom and lightness. Witnessing that silent struggle became a mirror for Jenna’s own life. As Jenna achieved more, she realized she had inherited that same survival blueprint.

She learned firsthand what it is like to step into elite institutions like Exeter and still feel like it is never enough. She learned what it feels like when your light triggers envy instead of celebration in the people closest to you, forcing you to brace for impact. To survive, Jenna built her own impenetrable wall of hyper-independence. But that armor came at a massive cost. Years later, sitting in a quiet healing space, she experienced the literal chest pain of trying to drop that shield. She knows the terrifying, suffocating feeling that happens when your nervous system finally tries to breathe again after a lifetime of holding its breath.

Her work today was born from a desire to heal that exact ache—not just for herself, but to liberate women like her mother, and women like the younger version of herself who had to grow up too fast.

What began as a childhood vow to decode the silent tension in her family home turned into a twenty-year journey into human behavior, psychology, and the subconscious mind. At seventeen, a profound spiritual awakening ignited her path. Jenna immersed herself deeply in the world’s esoteric lineages—from Sufism and Islamic philosophy to Zen and Tibetan Buddhism, Christianity, and nondual teachings from Adyashanti, Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, Yogananda, and Eckhart Tolle. She used EFT, shamanism, and these traditions as a map to navigate her own grief, melt her survival responses, and reclaim her innate softness.

Today, Jenna is the author of Heavenly Creatures, the founder of Alignment Academy, and an intuitive coach who works at the rare intersection of rigorous systems thinking and deep somatic healing.

Her coaching is a sanctuary for high-functioning, successful women who are tired of carrying the world on their shoulders. Using Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), coaching, and spiritual insights from her lifelong studies, Jenna helps women gently untangle the childhood and developmental traumas that leave them stuck in a cycle of “proving and protecting.”

Jenna’s ultimate mission is to break the cycle of the burdened woman. She helps her clients move out of the lonely isolation of hyper-independence and into the genuine luxury of self-love, abundance, and soft power—proving that you can create massive success, honor the women who came before you, and still have a home inside yourself that is completely at peace.

Because the question that guides her life is the very invitation she extends to you:

What becomes possible when a powerful woman finally drops her armor, steps into her absolute value, and learns how to live—and love—without fear?
