Leading with Light

I've had the pleasure of bringing my entire leadership team to work with Jennifer and Jeff. It was magic. After four days of deep conversation, strategic thinking, and dreaming about what is possible, we returned to the airport awestruck. The work to become more aware of our passions, aligned as a team, and intentional in who and how we serve has catapulted our business. Leading with Light is an instant reminder of that magic—it makes these principles accessible to everyone, and we'll all be better for it. —Dan Horton, President and CEO, The Horton Group

Jennifer and Jeff helped me to embrace my authentic self—and find the courage to express who I am. Leading with Light has been a gift to be real with myself, to know myself more fully, and to empower me to shine my light brighter and fully live my purpose. This book is a must-read! —Suzanne Granney, Executive Director, Four Diamonds

Leading with Light is an example of why Jennifer and Jeff are the people to help us not only become conscious leaders but also deliver a better version of ourselves. The personal connection and insights helped me to become more in touch with myself and ultimately become a better leader. This is a must-read for anyone looking to grow or become a better human. —Freddie Noe IV, Master Distiller, James B. Beam Distilling Company

It's about damn time Jennifer and Jeff write a book! Their teaching has been a game-changer for me. I was passionate. I was pretty sure I had a purpose. I had thought about what's possible. My light was big and bright. But none of it was aligned. I was tired and unsure. Who knew all I needed was Jennifer — a gifted, glittering guru — and Jeff — the kindest, most empathetic, and thoughtful midwestern dad — to open my heart and mind to the path I'm on today. Now, I'm more passionate than ever. I'm purpose-driven. I know what's possible, and I'm going to make it happen. My light is bigger and brighter than it's ever been. They helped me find alignment, and I'm leaning in. It's Go Time. With this book, anyone can exponentially grow their impact on the world, and the world desperately needs it. —Derek Allen, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, Starr Commonwealth

For years, I have told friends near and far who were at a crossroads and looking for direction that they should attend a Lantern Retreat with Jennifer and Jeff. The problem was, when you're at a crossroads, the timing, money, or motivation can prove elusive. Now, Jennifer and Jeff have given us Leading with Light to help reorient ourselves right when we need it, to help us get through, and to refer to throughout our journey. —Evelyn Furse, Summit County Clerk, former U.S. Magistrate Judge

I've participated in Plenty's signature Lantern program individually and also brought my company leadership team to Jeff and Jennifer, who led us through Meridian, their outstanding strategy retreat. In both cases, we were required to bring our full selves to the process, including our emotions, which is unique in business. In their new book, Leading with Light, Jeff and Jennifer share their personal journeys and guide readers into deep personal reflection. Through exercises and practices, the authors encourage you to courageously express your best self and let your presence shine—not just at work—but in all areas of your life. I highly recommend this book. —Liam Killeen, CEO, Wells Enterprises, Inc.

Leading with Light is the perfect book for a world of people yearning for more. Through profound and personal insights, exercises, and practices, Jennifer and Jeff take a fresh approach to leadership by bringing us back to the person who matters most: ourselves. In a time when we're all told to do more and be more, the invitation to become more aware, aligned, and intentional to the light within is a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend this book. —Tom Bufalino, General Manager, James B. Beam Distilling Company

Leading with Light is the go-to guide for conscious leaders looking to make a positive difference in their lives and in the lives of those they lead. Jennifer and Jeff's natural light and positivity jump out of every page. Reading this book is like sipping a warm cup of soup on a cold winter day. —Elaine Martyn, Senior Vice President, Fidelity Charitable

In a time of great uncertainty, Leading with Light comes along as a wonderful reminder that we each have what we need to navigate what's before us. Jennifer and Jeff inspire us to bring our whole selves to work and life, trusting we have everything we need to lead the way. I highly recommend this rich and inspiring book. —Ellie Starr, CEO/Founder, Starrs Aligned
