TESTIMONIALS
Jessie Barr is the real deal, the coach’s coach. If you are looking for help with your script, she is clear, smart, and thorough. She has an uncanny ability to get straight to the heart of your story. She guided me to deepen my hero’s need in ways that not only made the script more mine but more accessible to an audience.

It is rare to find coaching with someone of Jessie's caliber in the industry, and I feel so lucky to be able to receive her notes. Jessie's feedback is thoughtful, intelligent, and actionable. She covers everything from broader themes to individual lines and even typos. Her suggestions for story and scenes are inspired. Jessie understands my writing and my voice better than any other coach I have worked with. That type of encouragement, along with her insightful notes, always take my projects to the next level.
