Imagine being an A+ perfectionist and battling daily with your inner critic and people-pleasing tendencies. Imagine meeting a therapist that finally switched you on to your values (and how everything you were doing was not in alignment with them).

Imagine hitting burnout not once, but twice. The second time, you crash so hard, despite making many positive changes, you can’t walk!

Imagine being an A+ perfectionist and battling daily with your inner critic and people-pleasing tendencies.

Imagine meeting a therapist that finally switched you on to your values (and how everything you were doing was not in alignment with them).

Now imagine turning your crash and burn into becoming a “compassionate coach”. You now help women lawyers get out of their own way, learn how to be self-compassionate and create fulfilling mindsets.

You’ll love hearing how Jordana Confino went from lawyer to recovering-perfectionist and positive psychology coach. She shares how her personal experiences with burnout and physical pain helped her become the compassionate and successful coach she is today.

Jordana - profile and where to find her

Jordana is a certified professional coach, Positive Lawyering professor, and founder of JC Coaching & Consulting, a company devoted to helping lawyers and other high-achieving professionals get out of their own way so they can enjoy greater satisfaction and sustainable success in their lives and work.

As a self-described “recovering Type A+ perfectionist” herself, Jordana knows that many high-achieving, successful people hold limiting beliefs that prevent them from truly flourishing. Until fairly recently, she was one of them. But Jordana transformed her life leveraging the science of positive psychology and human motivation theory, and she is passionate about helping others do the same.
