Jean Patry's Coaching Story

Jean Patry is the Co-founder of Mojo, a fantastic mobile app that helps you turn your ideas into powerful animated visuals.

Thanks to Wave, I realized there was a strong interconnection between my professional and emotional spheres. Working at the intersection of both was what I could leverage the most to make progress.

Can you share key highlights of your coaching experience with Wave (overcame challenges, aha moments...)?

I think there were several aha moments in my coaching relationship with Wave that were impactful:

• The 1st one was realizing there was a strong interconnection between my professional and emotional spheres. Working at the intersection of both was what I could leverage the most to make progress.
• The 2nd one was realizing that I was in control. I switched from a passive to an active mindset. How I handle my whereabouts, my professional relationships, how I use my time is all up to me. Coming to that realization was really liberating to me. Whatever was dysfunctional could be changed just by making the decision to do so and then by acting on it.
• The 3rd was when I realized that as a young company, improving my own happiness at work was very much aligned with improving the quality of my business. Before I was in a tension between what's good for me and what's good for the company. What made me grow was finding an angle to address both with the same approach

What would you say that Wave brought you?

Wave has brought me some tangible benefits:

• stress-relief
• sense of control: both emotional & professional
• a deeper understanding of my inner needs on a professional level and in life

Thanks to my work with Wave, I'm more attuned to my emotions, which I now see as a strength rather than an affliction or something I have to endure. I know now how to tap into my emotions to guide my decisions.

Who do you think should start being coached by Wave?

Overall a lot of people could benefit from it because you'll get to work on yourself to be better at what you do.

I would also highlight that if you're a first-time founder or a newly appointed leader or a professional who is experiencing discomfort in your day-to-day work, you have everything to gain by being coached by Wave.
