What clients and colleagues have to say about Jon

"I felt I was the most important person to Jon and that his sole desire was for me to grow in my ability to lead. The interaction was terrific every time, as Jon wasn’t giving me advice, but rather helping me find the solutions for myself through probing questions that got beyond the superficial issues to the real heart of the issue. The respect he showed for my role and the positive encouragement allowed me to feel it was safe to share some vulnerabilities I have been protecting for some time."
Phil Gattone
Former CEO, Epilepsy Foundation of America
"I believe because of the coaching and candid feedback from Jon, I have a greater sense of awareness how others view my leadership. As I continue my limited time in public service and I look to the future of private sector employment, I will be reminded of these conversations and my ability be more vocal as to impact to self and family."
Dave Kohl
Former Director, Federal Air Marshalls Service
"When Jon shows up, warmth shows up. A genuine curiosity for how I *really* am (not just the surface level stuff) shows up. Deep listening shows up. You remember things about me/people - even from previous conversations that might have been several weeks before. Heart shows up. A little bit of playfulness shows up too -- it's not overt but it's definitely there."
Courtney Packard
Senior Recruiter, McKinsey & Company
"You instill an instant sense of safety, trust and connection. You have a quiet magnetism that draws people to you.”
Bill Pullen
President, BPA Consulting
"I love talking to you because I know you care about what I say and about me as a person. Safety to feel what I need to feel and say what I need to say. To not be judged."
Gabriella Fernandez
Federal Government Executive
"You were amazing to work with! Amazing about providing space. Listening empathetically. It’s your secret sauce. You have a quiet confidence mixed with intellectually ability."
Harris Fanaroff
Founder, Linked Revenue
"Jon embodies the definition of ‘going above and beyond.’ As someone going through a career transition, Jon was by my side through many ups and downs. His commitment to my success was truly remarkable; through empathetic conversations, authentic interview practice, and guided self-discovery of career passion and direction, we built a trusting relationship that enabled me to take measured risks to move forward in my career. Without his conscientious attention to my needs throughout our time working together, I may not have had the success that I had. I am forever indebted to his guidance and vast knowledge. He is truly one-of-a-kind."
Sam Moser
Senior Education Impact Consultant, PowerSchool
"I want to thank you for offering me this opportunity to work with you. It has been extremely valuable to me. My thought process has been challenged to think differently. I have found it to be rewarding and has pushed me to uncomfortable places. When I’m pushed to those places, it improves me and my abilities to think more objectively and with more feeling. While I reflect on my own goals and objectives for the second half of my career, this coaching opportunity will propel me to another level. I hope you found our discussions helpful because I have."
Chad Hartman
Vice President, Development and Corporate Alliances at USO

Praise for Seizing Today

"Jonathan so clearly depicts the frustrating and, at times, mind-numbing (pun intended), odyssey of epilepsy treatment. Long after I'd read the last line, what lingered with me most was the compassion, honesty, and hope buzzing through these pages. Seizing Today is a beautiful testament to the lengths we will go to fight for our lives and the expense it can take on an individual and their family.”
Kelly Cervantes, USA Today Best Selling Author of Normal Broken: The Grief Companion for When It’s Time to Heal But You’re Not Sure You Want To
“It takes a lot of courage to write such a profoundly personal and vulnerable account of what it’s like to live with a disease that is still so stigmatized and misunderstood. Seizing Today is equal parts inspirational, educational, and deeply moving. This is a beautiful read.”
Dr. Jaqueline French, Director, The Epilepsy Study Consortium (TESC) NYU Langone Health
"Imagine being smart, successful, with a career that takes you to different parts of the world, and suddenly facing a diagnosis that makes you question everything about your future and yourself. Jon shares the denial, shock, fear and exploration of his condition as only he can – with honesty and vulnerability. He takes you on his journey, walking you through the steps he took to treat his body, and in the process transform his whole self. There are lessons here for everyone, regardless of what you confront in life.”
Martin (Marty) Kaiser, Pulitzer Prize winning former Editor of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"As an epileptologist treating patients with epilepsy every day, Seizing Today is a phenomenal resource for individuals experiencing seizures, their caretakers and really anyone experiencing disease in their life. Jon takes you on a journey throughout his experience and addresses an extremely technical topic and makes it easy to understand and relate to with vivid imagery and metaphors.”
Dr. Kahlil Husari, Neurologist, Johns Hopkins Medicine and Assistant Professor of Neurology, Johns Hopkins University

The Power of Connection

They are the two things we fear the most: rejection and abandonment. They could come from a family member, a friend, a co-worker, a neighbor, a classmate, even a prospective employer, client, or someone with whom we merely hoped to spend time.
