Jenny Medrano (She/They) | Strategy & Equity Consultant & Liberation Coach

​

Jenny Medrano is a consultant, facilitator, and liberation coach with a background in education, youth development, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training. She supports organizations in expanding their culture toward greater equity and inclusion by integrating restorative justice practices.

​

She began her work in organizational transformation in 2013, working with various youth-focused nonprofits in Denver. In these roles, she applied her background in education to design curriculum and develop programs that positioned students as leaders. In 2018, she joined the nonprofit organization Building Bridges, a move that fundamentally shifted her approach to anti-oppression work.

​

While at Building Bridges, Jenny collaborated with high school-aged women who expanded her understanding of intersectionality and anti-racism. She led the expansion of these programs into the DEI sector, guiding nonprofits, universities, and corporations through long-term systemic development. This period was pivotal to her leadership and directly led to the launch of her business, Jenny Medrano Coaching, in 2021.

​

In her work now, Jenny partners with leaders—specifically those who are often overlooked, overworked, and underpaid—who are ready to own their superpowers and navigate systemic barriers. She provides the tools and mindset needed for professional development, self-advocacy, and sustainable personal and financial liberation. Her work is rooted in the belief that individual growth is a necessary component of the broader freedom of our communities.

​

Professional Experience:

• Liberation Coaching (2021–Present): Coached 25+ leaders through personal liberation and the development of equity-aligned business models.

• Organizational Strategy (2018–Present): Worked with over 65 organizations and companies as a Lead Consultant and Facilitator. Her focus includes systemic DEI development, community-building, and conflict transformation.

• Restorative Justice: Incorporates restorative practices into organizational structures to move beyond compliance toward structural justice.
