Session: The 7 P's Business Coaches Need for a Sustainable Practice
Jen Rogers is a startup entrepreneur and podcast launch coach. The irony of my expertise? I became an accidental entrepreneur after falling from grace in the traditional 7am-7pm 9-5 role. I didn’t know it before my career shakeup; losing that 6-figure job revealed how misaligned my choices were with my purpose. Organized by nature, I felt completely disorganized. Naturally competitive, my disillusionment about where I thought I would be or worse, “should be,” fed into shame, apathy, regret, and fear. I lost my dreams, my identity, and my confidence. But God… That epic failure led to discerning God’s revelation for my mission. I believe that failure catapulted me to success as I delight in entrepreneurial collaborations! From professional mentoring to speaking to podcast coaching, I'm committed to helping entrepreneurs experience success from failures, too.
