Meet Jenn
I’m Jenn Klein, Certified Fund Raising Executive, Certified Health Coach, and Writer dedicated to helping you change the world, starting with yourself.
As a health coach, I help men and women learn to balance their lives and reach their health goals.
As a writer, I inspire you to change the world on my blog and in my book.
The lessons I have learned as a fundraiser are invaluable. They are tools I can use for the rest of my life to do good. The more they are disseminated, the more the seeds of good are sewn and grown in your communities. I hope you will join me on this journey to do good in our world.
According to The Corporation for National and Community Service, just 25 percent of Americans volunteer. By increasing volunteer time, we have a significant opportunity to improve our communities. We can change the world—both individually and collectively. We must not expect others to do the work.
We must not be discouraged that we don’t have millions to give. We must feel empowered that we can make a difference. I want you to declare with me proudly, “I am a Philanthropist!”
Certified Fund Raising Executive and Certified Health Coach?
For more than 18 years, I have helped nonprofits grow through best fundraising practices and strategies. After traveling the world with my fundraising career, I learned through early motherhood, the value of giving to those closest to you is the best way to start making the world a better place. In my book Giving is Selfish, I teach the transformative powers of care-giving, thanks-giving, and for-giving. I believe we are “hardwired to give” and that all the goodness you put into the world is never wasted and “boomerangs back” to you.
When I studied at the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute to get my health coaching certificate, I deepened my understanding of health and wellness. Dr. Sears teaches a holistic approach to healthy living through Lifestyle, Exercise, Attitude, and Nutrition (L.E.A.N). An important component I identified with was a scientific term called the “Helpers High.” Did you know helping others is proven to lower your blood pressure, help you live longer, have stronger mental health and social connections?
Interested in learning more about my health coaching services? In addition to my blog, podcast, and book, I work with clients on holistic health and wellness practices, routines, and accountability. What if you could change the world today without being drained of your time and energy? What if every day you woke up grateful and ready to start the day with energy to give to both yourself and others? What if you could make a difference with the limited time and funds that you have? If you are trying to figure out how to navigate your own personal health and wellness goals while also raising a family and trying to make a difference in the world, then click here.
A little more about me: my favorite t-shirt is the Women’s Mother Earth Love Tee and my favorite podcast episode is Episode 5: Philanthropist John R. Fisher, Public Servant for Children. I love to share inspirational content on Instagram and connect with do-gooders and change-makers, like you, on LinkedIn. Giving is Selfish is my most popular blog post and inspiration behind my book. How this whole journey got started is explained here: Call Merriam: Redefining Philanthropist.
