“I love everything that Wet Cement is doing to provide resources and tools to empower women in the workforce. I had the pleasure of working with Jenn and the Wet Cement team on a workshop for the Viacom Women’s Employee Resource Group. Jenn provided a dynamic, interactive and engaging workshop around the theme of Imposter Syndrome. The workshop had a profound impact on the attendees and provided insight and strategies to manage and overcome Imposter Syndrome. I look forward to working with Wet Cement again to curate some new workshops in 2021.”

"With the assistance and coaching of the webinar lecturers, I was able to come up with a strategy that allowed me to control my anxiety related to Imposter Syndrome.

However, I strongly recommend you take up these sessions to expand your horizon and reach your full potential, professionally and personally."

“The Sales Training I have been a part of with Wet Cement is above and beyond what I expected! I have done many sales trainings during my 13-year career in Digital Ad Sales and NONE have taught me what I have learned from CEO, Jenn Willey. She has an extensive understanding, and great level of experience in the space, which provides a realistic approach to the business. There is no fluff, only guidance and coaching on proper techniques, winning strategies, dedicated help on skills to fine-tune and how to leverage your strengths. I have been personally challenged and see week over week growth in how I am applying her coaching and look forward to the results I will see this have on my career.”

Across two days, these workshops inspired, motivated, and gave tools to our group that they could put into place to advance in their career and personally.

Amy Summers
Leader of Raising HOPE,
United Way of Ulster County
"What a pleasure it was to host Jennifer Willey’s Impostor Syndrome Workshop for our Raising HOPE Mentees & Mentors. The theme of self doubt or fear of failure despite being competent and talented in their field of expertise is a challenge that can interfere with success when left unchecked. Jennifer offered tangible ways to identify these triggers and how to best deflate your inner defeatist and replace that voice with a more supportive narrative. Our program participants were engaged by the topic and Jenn’s enthusiastic style of facilitation. I recommend this workshop.”
Deb Taylor

"Jennifer was a fantastic keynote for our Reimagine Aging Conference this fall and framed our theme of Technology for Independent Living perfectly. She brought forward evidence from research and market trends, and insights from the cutting edge, about aging and the broad range of technologies that support older adults. Jennifer connected with our audience through her storytelling. We received countless compliments about her presentation from attendees and other presenters. Most importantly, she had our attendees reimagining aging!"
