Join me for the career reflections of Jen Coken, executive leadership coach, Fortune 500 speaker and imposter syndrome expert. A journey that starts in politics, crosses into non-profit organizations, with stints in consulting, corporate and stand-up comedy, and now coaching.

Wanting to make a difference in the world and totally inspired by one of her first college professors, she becomes an activist and pursues a master’s degree in political campaign management. Driven to do more, and make more of a difference, her career follows a series of recruitment opportunities.

She loves, loves, loves what she’s doing – helping to empower women!
