Hi, I'm Jennifer Higgins, Founder and President of Get Yourself Coaching and at 50 years old, I figured out what I wanted to do when I grew up. My hope is to help you do that long before you’re my age.
After working several corporate jobs throughout my life and feeling unfulfilled in each of them, in 2008 I got certified in coaching and started to find ways to help people understand themselves and I began to feel that fulfillment that had been missing from my work.
In 2011, I discovered True Colors temperament typing when I did a team-building exercise for my daughter’s soccer team, and knew that I had found something that was going to help me help people understand themselves and others, like nothing else I had ever experienced. As a mother of two, I knew that I wanted to help children and families understand each other so that they can have better, more positive and healthy relationships. As my kids graduated from high school and went onto college, I could see how kids that age struggled to figure out what to major in and ultimately what they wanted to do when they grew up.
Since I had finally figured that out in my 50’s, I wanted to see if I could use what I’d learned to help high school and college age kids do that many years earlier. In 2018, I became certified in Inner Heroes which is based on True Colors methodology, and as part of that training, learned how it has been used for 25 years in the California Community College system to help students declare a major.
