Hi friends,

Did it feel like you woke up and your career was suddenly over? The DEI work you loved, the research projects you started, the trans clinic you poured yourself into — gone quiet? Maybe you’re unsure where to put your energy next, or how to move forward in a field that’s shifting under our feet.

You’re not alone. Many brilliant, values-driven professionals are facing the same uncertainty right now. The years of training, care, and courage that got you here don’t have to be lost — they can be reimagined.

That’s where coaching comes in. I work 1:1 with professionals to help:

  • Rebuild clarity and confidence after professional upheaval;

  • Lead teams with care through rough waters; or

  • Explore what’s next — whether that’s success at your current job, a new road completely, or a different way to serve your community.

I’ve spent my career helping people and organizations grow and adapt — from building LGBTQ health programs from scratch to coaching leaders through difficult moments to helping students and trainees navigate new careers. Today, I work as an Executive in a biotech start-up and coaching clients just like you!

How does coaching work?

  • Currently, I charge $100-$200 for a weekly or bi-weekly 45 minute session.

  • Our conversations are completely confidential, action oriented, and hands-on.

  • This isn’t therapy — it is evidence-based leadership development.

Interested in not just surviving but thriving in the face of all this? Drop me an email and let's get back to work: jessica.halem@gmail.com

Warmly,

Jessica Halem, MBA
