  • We heard from our community members that Jahna’s session had a direct impact on their careers. One person who attended her session told us the Summit helped them advocate for a title change and improve relationships with their colleagues. Another said her advice helped them decide to take a new role in the news industry.

  • You made it easy to take a competing offer off the table (something I should have known all along, but it's hard to see the forest through the trees when you're in the middle of it), and I will always remember that just because there are offers or potential offers in front of me, I don't need to feel pressured into taking one.

  • Jahna's super-power is to instill confidence with facts. Armed with this newfound courage, I counter-offered at a rate $45K higher, then "settled" at $30K above the original offer. Salary isn't everything, but it's awfully important. Without Jahna's guidance, I would've accepted the initial offer.
