Testimonials

"Coaching with Jen Todd at Breakthrough Partners has been one of the best professional experiences that I've had. I started professional coaching at a time in my life where I was allowing my work (both the volume and nature of it) to have potentially negative impacts on my well-being. Jen helped me to get to a place where I am able to articulate what's most important to me every day and live my life, both personally and professionally, in a way that allows me to achieve those priorities. These results are directly connected to Jen's approach. She makes it incredibly easy to open up to her. You understand almost immediately that she is in your corner, not only rooting for you to become your best self, but actively pursuing that with you. She's also not afraid to ask tough questions, to help you see your thoughts in a new light, and to hold you accountable to real transformation. Because of my work with Jen, I'm more productive and effective in my job and I'm also a happier, more fulfilled human being."

"What I expected from Jen Todd in my executive coaching program and what I received, was far greater. I would say that it was life changing.

Jen is a first class leadership coach giving tactical advice to approaching challenges head on. She is tough, direct, held me accountable, and pushed me out of my comfort zone to facilitate leadership growth and development. She coached me to be a more effective leader, in an extremely challenging environment. But my experience with Jen went far deeper. I pride myself in being a spiritual person and a person with a strong relationship with God. Because of Jen, however, my faith is even stronger today. Jen taught me the value of truly spending quiet time in presence and regularly spending time in gratitude. Her tactical advice has added lovely routines to my life that truly bring me joy and peace. Jen is truly a blessing in my life and a surprising outcome to an executive coaching program. God bless you Jen. You will always be in my heart. "

"Jen Todd, You ROCK! You bring your whole self and all your experience to the coaching process. I am thrilled with my experience and results and I would recommend you to everyone!

Your coaching really helped me focus, make shifts internally to put myself first and stay accountable to my goals. In the past I tried to do WAY TOO much at the same time in my business and my life and always felt scattered. I shifted habits that don’t serve me any longer, learned to focus and prioritize what’s most important, and connect with myself every day for clarity, creativity and guidance. I am way more productive than ever before and making positive change in my business and life. Most importantly, I finally feel at PEACE…"
