Professional and Leadership Experience​

Jessica Beaton is an integral coach and growth strategist with nearly 20 years of experience across digital media, brand marketing, and organizational leadership. She has led transformational teams and senior regional roles at The Walt Disney Company, dentsu, and CNN.

Jessica’s expertise spans entertainment, tech, advertising and media, with deep operational knowledge across Asia Pacific, having lived and worked in Greater China, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

Her coaching draws on this track record of driving results while developing people and navigating complexity with empathy.

As a certified Integral Coach as well as Health Coach, Jessica brings her full self to her clients — including her perspective as a mom, weight lifter, a former editor and brand storyteller, and someone who believes in the spark of human potential. She’s especially passionate about helping emerging leaders and senior executives reset, realign, and realize their capacity to lead with clarity and purpose.
