About
Bright By Your Side is a collective of coaches and experts ready to empower to make positive change in your life. From stress to relationships, we can help.
Bright By Your Side was founded by Jen Dyer, a certified life coach, health coach, and hypnotherapist dedicated to empowering individuals to live their best lives. With a BA in Psychology from UCLA and extensive training, Jen can help you build resilience to stress, improve relationships, and live your best life now.
Early in her career, Jen worked in our foster care system as a counselor to teenage girls, ages 13 to 17. Seeing their strength and resilience was an inspiration, and showed her that anyone can overcome the stress in their lives with proper guidance.
With anxiety and depression skyrocketing across all age groups, Jen has taken a deep interest building resilience in the next generation. Not only are our kids recovering from crucial years lost during the pandemic while navigating social media pressures, but their parents are often suffering from anxiety and overwhelm also. As a working mom herself, Jen has a soft spot for moms who are struggling to hold everything together. She enjoys working with both parents and youth to improve the overall health of the family unit.
Jen’s background also includes a long career at Disney’s Consumer Products division, and real estate investing. She loves volunteering and supporting non-profit organizations when she is able.
Jen is married to her husband, Michael, and together they are the proud parents of their daughter, Lexi, an epidemiologist, who is currently working to eliminate River Blindness in West Africa. Other than Michael, Jen’s best friend might be their dog Coco, a 12 year old poodle mix, who is sitting by her side at this very moment.
