What makes Jordana's work so powerful is that it is not just inspiring — it is deeply evidence-based, practical, and human. In many ways, Jordana is helping redefine what high performance can and should look like in law. The level of engagement from attorneys and staff across our offices spoke volumes about how deeply this topic resonates. The profession is better because of the work she is doing, and it has been an honor partnering with her."

    James Keshavarz, Chief Wellness Officer, Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP

Empower your team to flourish

  • "We were so fortunate to have Jordana present to both our attorneys and operations staff on “Foundations for Flourishing: Leveraging Positive Psychology to Boost Well-Being, Resilience, and Performance”. We regularly plan wellness related CLE programs for the firm and felt Jordana was the ideal presenter; professional, experienced, prepared, and responsive. Jordana’s background itself is impressive, but her engaging presentation style assured that our attendees were listening, participating, and receptive to the important topics being discussed. From the initial consultation to the date of the program, Jordana was responsive and helpful. She listened to our concerns and topic “wish-list” to assure our visions aligned and the program met the needs of the firm. Jordana supplied great materials to supplement her presentation and also shared a follow-up for the attendees. We received positive feedback on both the topic and her presentation style. We would love the opportunity to work with Jordana again!"

    Tatiana Cios (Professional Development Manager) & Samantha Lia (Legal Recruiting Manager), Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP

  • "Jordana's presentation is hands down THE best 60 minutes I've ever invested in learning about attorney well-being (applicable to anyone who holds him/herself to high standards) and I'm still experiencing the positive impact 2 days later. Jordana's kinesthetic approach to teaching small, incremental, immediately applicable skills to boost well-being had an immediate, positive effect, and I'm looking forward to continuing down this new road. At this moment, I'm happier in my own skin than I've perhaps ever experienced. I can now go to bed at a healthy hour (instead of revenge procrastinating & fearing tomorrow's workload), face my to do list with a sense of "I can do this!", and I no longer dread looking at my inbox (i.e., for the dreaded "why haven't you done X yet). Should you have the opportunity to learn from Jordana, seize the opportunity! You won't regret investing the time in your future self."

    Audrey Todd Heilprin, Senior Counsel, Fortinet

  • "Jordana presented an excellent CLE on Leveraging the Science of Positive Psychology to Find Greater Success and Satisfaction in Your Law Practice. Hundreds of our members attended to learn more about this important topic, and Jordana provided concrete paths to success, and, critically, provided scientific and psychological evidence to back up claims and recommendations (something skeptical attorneys always appreciate!). Moreover, Jordana was a pleasure to work with behind-the-scenes; one of the most detail-oriented, responsive, and flexible educators I have worked with. We hope to have her back soon!"

    Gregory Binstock, Director of Professional Development

  • "Jordana’s Foundations for Flourishing course is one of the best CLE’s we’ve run at Axiom. Not only have we received rave reviews from our clients and lawyers, but Jordana was a pleasure to work with as well. She was timely, communicative, and personal. I look forward to partnering with her again."

    David Fishman, Senior Manager of Customer Marketing, Axiom Law

  • "The Positive Lawyering programs offered to our Summer Associates and First-Year Associates were an outstanding addition to our professional development curriculum. Geared toward helping junior talent leverage the principles of positive psychology, these sessions provided invaluable tools to support mental health, enhance well-being, and cultivate a greater sense of satisfaction as they navigate the early stages of their legal careers. Jordana’s facilitation of these sessions was a particular highlight, she is incredibly well-prepared, deeply informed, and wonderfully engaging. Her thoughtful approach and ability to connect with young professionals made the content resonate in a meaningful way. The tools and frameworks she shared are practical, accessible, and designed to be used throughout the long arc of a legal career. These programs delivered on their promise to empower our junior lawyers not only to succeed but to thrive, and we look forward to continuing to build on this momentum."

    Melissa Meyer, Director of Associate Recruiting, Venable LLP

About Jordana A. Confino

Jordana is a sought-after coach, speaker, and advisor, valued for her expertise in positive psychology and well-being, and her rare ability to connect with and inspire everyone she meets.

Seven years after graduating from Yale Law School, Jordana founded JC Coaching & Consulting to empower lawyers and other high-achieving professionals to transform their lives and work for the better. Having spent the bulk of her career working as a lawyer and in legal education at elite institutions, Jordana knows that many successful people hold limiting beliefs that prevent them from truly flourishing. For much of her legal career, she was one of them. But Jordana transformed her life by leveraging the science of positive psychology and human motivation theory, and she is passionate about helping others do the same.

Jordana previously served as the Assistant Dean of Professionalism and an adjunct professor at Fordham Law School, where she taught courses on Positive Lawyering and Peer Mentoring & Leadership. She was voted Adjunct Law Professor of the Year in 2021.

Jordana co-led the 2024 Lawyer Perfectionism & Well-Being Survey — a first-of-its-kind study documenting the impact of perfectionism on lawyers — in partnership with NALP, Krill Strategies, and AmbitionProfile. The programs she has built for law firms have been recognized with multiple national and international awards.
