Reflections on The ReImagination Café™
The ReImagination Café™ creates space for thoughtful, long-form conversations about work, leadership, community, identity, creativity, and the human experiences that shape our lives and contributions to the world around us.
Here are a few reflections from guests, collaborators, and longtime supporters of the project.
“Jessica always brings such grace, warmth and curiosity to everything she does and is not afraid to spend the time really exploring something, even if that makes for a longer conversation.
She is hugely professional in all that she does as well, really doing her homework to understand the subject matter and prepare for conversations which will interest and engage listeners.
Over the years the podcast has evolved from a focus on workplace wellbeing to something much broader, and Jessica is uniquely well connected with an endless stream of fascinating guests who have all done extraordinary things. To each she brings that same depth of understanding and curiosity.”
Richard Martin, CEO, Mindful Business Charter
“Being a guest on The ReImagination Café™ podcast was a true pleasure. Jessica is an exceptionally thoughtful and well-prepared interviewer. Her deep curiosity and commitment to rethinking how we work were evident throughout the conversation.
What sets Jessica apart is her genuine passion for improving workplace dynamics. She brings together voices that challenge the status quo and offer tangible hope for healthier, more human ways of working.”
Heidi Rosenfelder, Co-Founder & Executive Coach, Creativity Partners
“Jessica fosters conversations that help us see beyond our roles as workers to recognize the broader contributions we make to each other and to society as a whole.
This approach inspires listeners to fully engage with coworkers to make workspaces dynamic, inclusive and creative.
In an era in which discourse in the office can become uncivil, she provides a path toward constructive dialogue about ideas that can advance work culture.”
Cheryl Stallworth & Melissa Dougherty, Co-Founders, ShedLight
“Jessica was my first mentor. We worked together when I was a first year associate, and at that time, she was often referred to by the partners in the group as the ‘union rep’ because she was always looking out for associates’ quality of life, mental health, and work/life balance.
Jessica brought a kind and human touch to the world of large law. She truly cared about developing associates and helping them become the best lawyers they could possibly be, while encouraging them to carve out time to be other things too.
As a partner now, when mentoring associates, I often think, ‘What would Jessica do?’”
