Jen Ottovegio Coaching February 23, 2026 Just getting off the heels of a couple intentionally slow days at the Oregon Coast. I integrated by writing a new (and potent, I must say) piece. This piece felt important enough to just send directly. It’s about the skills that will actually matter in the next decade. (Per my opinion, as I don't have a magic ball). I'd argue these were important skills in every decade thus far. But in this moment of AI, things feel different. I make the case that the...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching February 16, 2026 One year from now... how do you want to feel? In your body, in your work, in your relationships, in your mind. Grounded? Proud? Like you were truly in the driver’s seat of your life? Personally, I don’t want to look back 12 months from now, wondering where my energy went. And I don't want that for you either. So today, I'm launching something to support us in living with more intention. Introducing: The Intentional Year Project Between now and March...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching February 9, 2026 This Wednesday at noon pacific I'm offering a workshop called Intentional Mornings. I’ve been keeping promotion pretty minimal, solely because I'm in puppy overwhelm + sick kid season - so, my apologies for the late notice. Consider this your direct and warm invitation. 💙 Over the past year, I’ve run this workshop half a dozen times for corporate groups (law firms, HR teams, and leadership cohorts) and it’s been consistently one of the most...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching February 2, 2026 This work can be quietly powerful. Not flashy. Not overnight. But the kind that meets people in their real lives and actually makes meaningful shifts. A few weeks ago, a coaching client said after our first session: “This was better than years of therapy. It’s exactly the type of support I need.” Of course therapy is fabulous and I can't say enough about wonderful a good therapist can be. And sometimes coaching is a better style of support. Then... at...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching January 20, 2026 Last week I wrote about personal agency — the idea that you still have choices, even when life is demanding. That got me thinking about which wellness tools actually support people when things are hard — and why so much of what gets labeled “wellness” makes me squirm. Why "Wellness" Feels Like A Bad Word Every January, "wellness" shows up loud and shiny. New routines, new ways to transform your life, new visuals of calm, focus, and productivity. And...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching January 14, 2026 Here we are! It's 2026. There's a lot of talk about manifestation, goal-setting, and positive affirmations. I want to be clear: there's a way to do that works that doesn't reek of toxic positivity. What I care about is personal agency — your ability to work wisely with what’s actually in front of you. Instead of assuming the day (or the season) is already decided. Let me show you what I mean. A Real Story from my Kitchen My kids got affirmation cards...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching December 2, 2025 Why Slowing Down Is So Hard (And Why I’m Practicing Anyway) I’ve been thinking a lot about slowing down lately — not as a luxury or something we 'earn', but as a life skill. A leadership skill. A sanity skill. I’ll be real with you:Slowing down is hard for me. I love getting things done. The thrill of checking things off a list is real. This isn't inherently bad. But, sometimes I hide inside the pace. Over the last year this phrase kept coming to me:...

Jen Ottovegio Coaching November 3, 2025 Rethink How You Plan If you’re anything like me (and most of my clients), your brain loves a good plan. You set the goal, build the to-do list, maybe even color-code it. But sometimes the plan still doesn’t work. Something unexpected gets in the way — a missed detail, a human emotion, a blind spot. What if better planning isn’t about adding more detail… but about asking a different question entirely? That’s where Inversion Thinking comes in. Inversion...
