“I am looking forward to each session we have with Jesse as he is a phenomenal coach. I am also so happy about the group dynamic! It’s only great people attracted to these courses. To develop mindset, heal old wounds, break destructive habits and limiting beliefs in favour of aligning with our new empowering identity and compelling life vision is just life-changing!”
“Jesse knows when to talk, when to listen, when to explain and when to play inspiring music during mind-blowing exercises. He is prompt with timing and always steer a tight ship! It feels like we can trust this captain to lead us on a safe journey! The classes has a fabulous mix of educational quotes, wonderful questions, fun exercises and small breakout rooms so we can have intimate sharing in smaller groups. It’s just an exciting time in sessions and the hours pass in a blink of an eye! It’s both fun and very productive! The homework and also the lingering breakthroughs from the latest session truly gives new perspective in everyday life between sessions.
I didn’t want the classes in L1 to end so I joined L2 as well! I can’t praise and recommend the Financial Wellbeing Course high enough!

I am writing in deep honor and gratitude to be able to share the value this man has had in my life as a mentor, coach, and friend. I have known Jesse Hartman for over ten years. I attended a school devoted to hypnotherapy research and application in clinical settings. The school focused on deep transformational healing of trauma and pattern in clinicians while also developing practical applications in practice settings. Jesse Hartman was an integral part of the team and my healing/learning back then.
I was so excited to hear when he started his independent coaching and financial wellness groups. I was eager to join. I know it’s an investment of time, and resources to be in his presence. He is one of the most devoted, organized, hardworking, and laid-back men I know. His energy and connection are so positive and optimistic. He can truly help anyone overcome limitations, clarify their vision for themselves and create tangible steps to make the vision come to fruition. He doesn’t use force or power over things. He honors the processes that need witnessing, vulnerability, and compassion. He has an intuition and presence that offers safety, peace, and total allowance for unfolding exactly what is needed. I truly enjoy his session recaps and targets we set together during sessions. I have found his friendship, caring and trust in me vital at these tough times of transformation. “Surround yourself with people that lift you higher” is definitely the feeling he gives to anyone around him.
I highly recommend anyone looking to transform money, business, relationships, or any other perceived obstacle to reach out to him. The world is blessed to have a heart-centered trustworthy man right now devoted to positive change. Sessions are super fun, real, and uplifting. I can’t say enough about him, and I truly wish there were more hearts in the world like him.

“I can’t thank you enough for this marvelous experience. You created a safe environment to examine my beliefs and habits around money and see life as filled with abundance. You offered more than ideas; you offered the tools I needed to dream again and look to the future while living today fully.
Five years ago, I was diagnosed with a malignant breast cancer. As a solopreneur, I had no one to rely on except myself. Without a job, I was forced to file bankruptcy and Social Security Disability. Surviving day-to-day became my new job.
Today, I own my own home, paid cash for two cars, and earn over $100K/year.
I am cancer free, debt-free, and even better worry free. Using the tools of financial freedom released me from the anxiety and shame about money that robbed me of the satisfaction of my hard work
Thank you for helping me move from surviving to thriving and celebrating life.”
With gratitude,

Arshan Descartes – “I am so happy I was able to attend yesterday’s session. I really needed to hear this message and allow my spirit to be re-immersed in guided thought. I think this session allowed me a chance to look at myself once again.
To look deeper than I’ve looked before and find the underlying reason for waking up every morning, for dreaming, for setting goals and trying to achieve them. And most of all, to closer grasp the idea of knowing that what I want is already mine without failure, without miss, without disappointment to me or any other person, irrespective of where I am or what I’m currently facing. So I thank you for sharing your time and knowledge with me”
Clients and participants share their experiences…
Tammy Wickham – “Jesse was a great inspiration to me when I started with Essex. He made the training classes fun and informative reaching both his goals. He has a great understanding when it comes to people and I believe he will shine in all his adventures.”
Christi Maringer – “I’d like to take the time to let you know how much you’ve inspired me over the years. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing you for about 6 years now. I have always looked forward to the classes you have taught. You have an amazing way of getting all to participate and fully enjoy each class. Everyone walks out of your classes with smiles and most end up making new friends. Most important, everyone walks away with a new perspective and feels renewed and inspired. You truly are a fantastic motivator.
Personally, I always looked forward to your monthly motivation emails. It never mattered the topic, it always seemed to perfectly apply to what I needed to hear. Your thoughts are always very poetic and very powerful. They really make you stop, think and evaluate your life. These emails always gave me that little kick I needed to get me over my most current hump. I feel very honored to know you. My absolute best wishes in all your future endeavors. Can’t wait to see what you do next.”
Sylvia Swaney – “I have enjoyed all of the training classes that you facilitated…”
Jesse Mohr – “Your training classes have been very valuable and entertaining at the same time. I’ve taken different training courses in my professional life, and your training has been the best by far!”
Adam Merzona – “Thank you again as you inspired and helped culture me in my career, and feel that I wouldn’t be where I am now if not for your energy, excitement, and efficiency through the many training classes I’ve attended.”
Catie Jennings – “You are such an inspiring and motivating trainer”
“Your classes were encouraging and motivating. I walked away from each one with a better perspective and all of the skills I needed to succeed.

Also, having a fun and interesting training class to attend helped me take everything in so much easier.”

Kevin Haze – “Jesse Hartman is a highly motivated and very exciting speaker. He continues to pique your interest even in the classes that you would say are very bland subjects. He is committed to his job and always has a professional appearance in all meetings he leads and all the classes that we attend. Jesse started the Essex Mentor Program for all new hires with Essex Property Trust, which has definitely worked out well. This lets new employees meet other employees that were at the same level so they could ask questions and get feedback from someone other than their boss before they actually showed up to their work location.”
Stacey Stoodley – “Having been with Essex Property Trust for many years, I have gone through a few training classes all by different trainers. Jesse always conducted his classes in a professional manner, but also enjoyable. He is able to convey the information in a way that makes it easy to remember! I always looked forward to his training sessions.”
Krystal Corpuz – “When I first started with Essex, I was new to property management. I attended my first training course for new hires with Jesse Hartman. I was nervous about how I would do in the business since I came in with no experience. Feeding off of Jesse’s enthusiasm for the company really got me excited about joining Essex and what was in store for me. I was impressed by the way Jesse facilitated the training classes because he did something different, such as engage the class in conversation to gear each point made towards our own personal experiences which helped me to retain and understand how to use the skills I learned in class when I returned back to my property. His training was not just during class but continuous in his “Action Emails” that he sent out, which has positively affected me to see things in a new light and gave me the drive to become a better leader and to succeed past what is expected of me.”
Brenda Bunker – “You give off such positive energy and I have always looked forward to training classes where I know you will be leading the group. You made it just as fun as you made it informative.”
Naree Heitz – “Thank you for everything and for making me feel like a valuable asset to the company… Your passion for your position has made me realize my passion for my future…
Jesse is inspiring, original, and truly sincere in his objective of teaching. He has the ability to make everyone relate to one another and effectively teaches passion for one’s position as well as bringing the community back to the people. He has an engaging personality, which does not make his class seem as though we are there for a presentation or a course, but there to see a friend and friendly face. From my personal experience, I have always left his training programs feeling that I had a blast and empowered to improve my customer service and technical skills. I have used his training and knowledge out on the field and I have found that the skills he has taught us are effective and the delivery of his training is memorable. His energy provides a lasting impression and in all his classes are always fun, always knowledgeable, easy to understand, and creative.”
Sashiana Peterson – “I had the privilege of attending a few training classes with Jesse. His enthusiasm and passion for helping others are what sets him apart from others. It is obvious he cares about people; he takes time getting to know you and goes beyond what his job description expects of him. Jesse has the ability to create excitement in his group of students. He is an inspiration to all of us and one of the greatest trainers/speakers/leaders I have encountered.”
Barbara Valencia – “We will all miss you, your knowledge, motivation, and your infectious enthusiasm.”
Venessa Amador – “You are an inspiration. I truly appreciate your motivation and words of wisdom.”
Jina Duncan – “Thank you for all your dedication to your teaching and training”
Monica Guarino – “You have so much to offer people, not only in teaching material and process but in the heart. I’ve always gotten great feedback from anyone who’s been in your sessions.”
Denis Melnichenko – “Jesse’s incredible ability to relate, connect and relay his information to a group of diverse individuals in a creatively inspired manner is his single greatest asset as a public speaker. I am truly thankful to have had the opportunity to work with and be mentored by Jesse Hartman and I am certain that in the future he will continue to positively impact many more individuals in much the same way that he has impacted myself.”
Laura Montoya – “While taking any classes with Jesse, he keeps them interesting, engaging, and most of all, fun. I trust in his knowledge and experience and have always considered him a “go to” person for help and suggestions. Jesse has made me feel like a truly appreciated individual and has always taken the time to help me develop my ideas and I always feel empowered to make changes and become better at what I do. Jesse’s enthusiasm is very refreshing and he is always positive. His great attitude is contagious and he is always someone I enjoy working with because of that.”
Jeannie Torchia – “I have worked with Jesse Hartman for the past several years and attended many of his training classes. I thoroughly enjoyed these classes and believe this is due to his excitement about training. Jesse always has new and different ways of relaying information and ideas. He has a positive can-do attitude and his love of motivational speaking gets others motivated. Jesse always sees things from a positive perspective.”
Michael Cusick – “If I had to choose three words that describe Jesse and his ability to lead a team of complete strangers down a path of friendship and skill development, they would be fun, engaging, and effective. If I had to choose 124, they would be these.
Jesse is an extremely smart and capable person who also happens to be one of the most genuine and honest people that I have had the pleasure to meet. His classes are always informative, and equally important, memorable. Instead of dreading training classes, it has become a great way to reconnect with a friend while learning a new and important skill. I not only learn how to be a more effective leasing specialist, I learn how to be a more graceful person. Any company would be lucky to have Jesse. His ability to thrive without regard to difficulty or subject material is peerless. I have no doubt that he will be just as big, or bigger asset to whichever team he decides to join. While I will miss him here, I am more excited to see him succeeding and growing as an individual.”
Richard Pomeroy – “I only had the opportunity to be in your class one time, but you made a bid impression on me and I thank you for it.”
Megan Garcia – “I learned many things from your training classes that I use on a day to day basis!”
Liz Chaffin – “Jesse is full of positive energy. You can feel it when you enter the room. As a trainer and speaker Jesse is fun, engaging and knowledgeable.”
Noelle Rhoads – “Jesse demonstrates a great deal of creativity, patience, and variety in each of his training classes. I know Jesse to be innovative, inspirational, kind, and considerate in all that he does. Jesse continues to inspire and encourage others to grow and learn and is always available with advice and fresh ideas.
Several of my staff have also expressed how much they enjoy Jesse as a trainer. They have frequently expressed how much they have learned from, and were inspired by Jesse’s knowledge and positive energy.”
Sarah Lewtas – “I have participated in several of Jesse Hartman’s training and development classes. Each time I felt like he took the time to articulate each point with interesting examples and engage with each participant. I felt like he genuinely wanted to inspire each person in the room. Jesse is approachable and personable which makes contact with him, as a corporate trainer, less intimidating especially when I had specific questions that were more appropriate one-on-one.”
LinkedIn Recommendations
David Anderson: Experienced Commerical Airplane Developer, LinkedIn
I worked until recently with Jesse on the Sammamish Pointe Board of Directors where he was Chair for several years. He used his leadership knowledge and people skills to manage expenses and coordinate projects for the community.
That involved encouraging Board members to agree on projects and be the main contact for the management company that did the work. In many cases, volunteers were encouraged to work on projects themselves instead of hiring others to do them.
I’ve always felt that of if a person can manage a group of volunteers, they can manage any group of employees. Jesse has a kind personality, is inquisitive, and persistent in finding solutions. He cares more about others than himself, and is always looking for ways to improve the group’s camaraderie, awareness, and decision-making skills.

Throughout the time that I have known Jesse, he has shown himself to be a man of outstanding moral character and an incredible appetite to see others succeed.
Jesse has encouraged many to step beyond their current job obligations to achieve a type of success they hadn’t thought possible before. He is a person with a warm heart that can see greatness in others and help them achieve their true potential.
I am grateful for Jesse’s encouragement and guidance. I know that whatever endeavorer he should attempt, he will bring to the table positivity, ambition, and a team spirit all can benefit from.
