? Jennifer: The Resilient Heart with a Counselor’s
Soul ?
I am a fierce protector, a thoughtful healer, and a loving mom who makes learning fun (with video game rewards and laser tag
celebrations!). I am sharp, compassionate, and always evaluating—but my strength comes from a deep well of life experience. I’ve walked through fire and still make room for empathy, reflection, and
growth.
I champion justice, even when it’s messy, and care deeply about my family’s friends' and clients' well-being—especially victories, big or small.
I am not afraid to ask hard questions, challenge broken systems, or admit when joy feels out of reach. But underneath it all, there’s a flicker of hope and strength that keeps me moving forward—with style, sass, and serious soul.
Jennifer Leslie: The Heart-Led
Trailblazer
I am a woman of profound depth, healing hands, and unshakable faith. A daughter, mother, counselor, and doctoral student chasing purpose with grit and grace. I
walk through pain with eyes wide open—whether it’s navigating a complex mother-daughter bond, standing beside friends through cancer battles, or shouldering heartbreak with
compassion.
I pour love into others—my husband, my daughter, my clients, my community—while rising as a resilient scholar shaping the future of trauma-informed care. A natural leader since high school (Kiwanis Queen!), I mix strength and softness like few can. Behind my thoughtful prayers and professional polish lies a spirit that won’t stop—because healing isn’t just my calling, it’s my legacy in the making. ??
