Jennifer Swanson is a seasoned senior executive and a professional coach who understands how to see possibility and turn visions into real life achievement. Over her 25+ year career in healthcare as a physician leader, she demonstrated clinical and operational success in four different specialty areas of medicine (emergency medicine, urgent care, occupational medicine and primary care) and led organizations to top decile national performance in quality of care and customer satisfaction—while also improving financial and engagement metrics. In each position, she identified untapped talent, introduced reports to their first leadership roles, and then coached many on to more senior positions.   In 2021, Jennifer left her position as Associate Chief Medical Officer of Duke Primary Care and launched her company, Pocket Your Change Coaching and Consulting, LLC.  Jennifer is credentialed with the International Coaching Federation and also is a certified Gallup Strengths Coach.

While Jennifer is passionate about work with current or aspiring C-suite executives because of their profound influence on organizational culture and performance, her current coaching clients also include new leaders, non-profit executives, and any other courageous, authentic individual who wants to dig deep and take a strategic approach to developing a meaningful life. She offers affordable group and team coaching, as well as workshops in leadership, life design, well-being, and storytelling.
