Open House visits don't always convert. Marketing budgets stretch thin. You need events that move families to apply — not just attend.
Parents enrolled here for faith and formation, not just academics. But it's easy for those values to live on the website and not in the experience. Families re-enroll where the mission isn't just taught — it's felt.
Moms feel disconnected from their daughters. Girls are drowning in social pressure. Christian families want help raising confident, faith-filled young women — and they're hoping their school can be part of the answer.

You carry more than enrollment numbers. You carry your school's mission, the families on your roster, and the weight of doing this work with limited time and a thin budget.
I built the "beYOUtiful & Confident" experience because I wanted to give people like you a tool that serves your enrollment goals and the families behind them — without adding one more thing to your plate.

We'll talk about your school's calendar, your enrollment goals, and what would resonate with your families.
School-sponsored, family-paid, or hybrid — whatever works for your community.
I run registration, send the welcome video, gather pre-event surveys from each family, and nurture moms with a short email sequence so they arrive open and ready. You promote to your community and welcome families on the day. Families leave changed.

Why this matters: the experience starts the day a family registers, not the day they walk in. Letting me run registration is what allows me to deliver the depth and warmth your families will tell other families about.
Your school covers the cost. Families register for free through my site, join my pre-event nurture sequence, and arrive ready. You get the roster for check-in and future follow up. Strongest community-building option.
Low-stakes for the school. Families invest in the experience. You bring the venue and the welcome.
Many schools sponsor part and ask families to contribute the rest. This is the most flexible option.






“I was looking for my daughter to find inner strength to boost her confidence. My daughter loved hearing Jenny's personal reflections. It helped her understand no one is perfect and that God allows us to move forward. Personally, my best take-a-way was realizing how often I "replay" negative thoughts in my head. I can let those thoughts go and move forward toward the future.” — Mom
“I'm so grateful to have gained a better connection with my daughter... I really enjoyed the breathing techniques, they were very relaxing. This reminded me of my worth and God’s unconditional love for me. I realize how I need to remove the negative labels I’ve trained my mind to believe."
— Mom
“I gained exactly what I hoped from this ! I grew closer to my mom, opening up to her a way that I hadn’t before. I also grew in my relationship with God. This taught me ways I can combine mental health and simple prayer with breathing techniques. Jenny’s passion, storytelling, and explanations helped me to learn about my faith in a new and fun way. I would highly recommend it for any mom or daughter looking to become closer with each other and God in a memorable way.”

I'm a Catholic speaker, a certified resilience coach, and the creator of the Self Love Club app. I've worked with Catholic and Christian junior high and high school communities across the Midwest, equipping students, parents, and educators with practical, faith-grounded tools for resilience, connection, and confidence.
I bring 20 years experience as a youth minister, a workshop leader, a retreat speaker, and — most importantly — a mom of three teens. I know the joy and the weight of forming young people in faith. I show up to schools the way I'd want someone to show up for my own kids.
I also host overnight retreats for moms and daughters who want to go even deeper — which often becomes a meaningful next step for the families who experience the school event.
If you're an enrollment director, admissions team member, or principal who wants to build something real with the families on your roster, I'd love to help.
Let's talk!


💜 Their worth, like God's love, is unconditional, objective and unchanging!

"beYOUtiful & Confident" is often the start of a longer partnership. Once we've worked together, here's how I can keep supporting your community:
Live Zoom workshops on:
Available standalone or as a bundle.
Grade-level workshops, all-school assemblies, and faith-filled retreats that build confidence, manage stress, and equip students with the social, emotional and mental health resiliency skills they need to suceed.
Beyond what we build together at your school, I run a mother-daughter overnight retreat and a "She's Worth It" mother-daughter Zoom workshops. Many schools share these with their community as ongoing support for moms and daughters. I can send you the links to share.
Free coaching courses your families can access between events to keep practicing the skills.
