Behind the Words
Jeanette Brown is a self-discovery expert who supports purpose- and passion-driven individuals ready to start their next chapter strong. She helps clients unravel the lies that keep them limited to understand who they really are and unlock their true genius.
A multifaceted Gen-X survivor of countless traumas, Jeanette now helps others with trauma recovery using what works for her: memoir writing, self compassion, feeding our minds and bodies well, grieving our losses, and being grateful for what we have.
A mom of two, professional chef, coach, self-discovery facilitator, memoirist, motivational speaker, and entrepreneur, Jeanette’s expertise has been featured in the New York Times, BusinessWeek, Parents, Hippocampus, and Saveur, among others. Her writing also appears on her own website, Don’t Sum Me Up.
