One on One Support & Guidance Sessions
I specialize in helping upcoming artists, creative entrepreneurs, and small business owners develop their ideas, gain resources and move with purpose in their businesses.
Powered By Purpose
For the past few years I have privately held mentoring sessions, pick my brain calls, and 1:1 support for creative entrepreneurs, artists, and small business owners.
I have found that much of what I have learned has not come easy and isn’t as accessible as it should be. That can be frustrating as an upcoming artist or business when tools and resources to success are not easy to locate. This can be especially true for BIPOC creatives and small business owners.
I have decided to dedicate more time to expanding these offerings and more of my time this year to bridging the gap in the creative industry.

“Mentoring with Jena was revolutionary for my creative practice. I had been seeking a mentor for awhile before stumbling across Jenas work, and was surprised to find someone who had checked off everything that I had been looking for. Jena has a unique ability to show up fully in “niche” areas that are more specific, while simultaneously creating work and offering mentoring that can resonate with anyone. Within our sessions, there was accountability, and Jena was wonderful at offering encouragement and support. She is an active listener, and she offers sound advice that is logical and loving. She is someone who models what she advocates for, and was kind enough to share relevant examples and experiences from her personal life that were relevant for my own personal growth. Jena is someone I aspire to be like in many ways, and I’m honored to have had the opportunity to study. ”
“Thank you for the time, the information you provided was really insightful and motivating. I’ll be sure to implement your advice!”
“I just wanted to thank you for our meeting. You shared so much valuable information. It was beneficial. I learned so much about the publishing industry. You also gave great advice about Pinterest and YouTube and help on growing my platforms.
”
“Thank you SO MUCH for letting me pick your brain yesterday morning! I left the conversation feeling very encouraged to push through in what the Lord has laid in front of me! I appreciate you.”
