Testimonials

Working with Jahmaal Marshall has been a game changer for me. He coached me to find root causes of why I show up the way I do as a leader today. And we went back to experiences from my childhood that I am still working on healing from. He is attentive, customized each of our sessions, and provided impactful and engaging homework assignments that I was excited to dig into. As a result of working with Jahmaal, I am now clearer on my non-negotiables, holding onto my boundaries, and continuing to set myself up for success. Working with Jahmaal is one of the best professional investments you can make in yourself this year-trust me, you won't regret it!

I came to Jahmaal early in the year because, frankly, my personal and work lives were a mess. Not being able to thrive and flourish in my current circumstances left me feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. Through our sessions, I was able to see that procrastination and perfectionism were creating havoc in my life. He helped me see that I could draw boundaries with my time and gave me the tools and strategies to help me streamline my work process by dedicating specific hours each day to work and others to family. Such simple changes have made a huge difference in my life.

I ended up sharing a LOT of information with Jahmaal--he is easy to talk to, nonjudgmental, and has a kind heart. I knew that being open and bluntly self-aware would help me get to the root causes of my daily stress. Now I feel more in control of my life and my time without sacrificing the care I provide for a family member. I highly recommend Jahmaal if you're dealing with complex family or emotional issues, as he's a wonderful listener who gives solid advice on how to make lasting change in your life.

I came across Jahmaal's work about three years ago, and I have to say, I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to mental health and counseling. After 12 years as a clinical psychologist and therapist, I’ve developed a very low tolerance for anything less than genuine expertise in this space.

From my experience interacting with Jahmaal and reviewing the curriculum of his program, I can confidently say that he is a truly qualified expert in his field. His approach is both scientifically sound and evidence-based, which is rare and refreshing.

On a personal note, Jahmaal is a kind and sweet soul who brings so much light and love into the world. If you’re ever looking for a counselor, coach, or speaker (he’s an incredible speaker—I’ve invited him to my events and he was phenomenal), I highly recommend Jahmaal.

When I launched Don’t Be Caged By Your Age and the New England Podcasters Group in March 2024, I was riding the wave of excitement… and also feeling the very real weight of managing two brand-new platforms simultaneously. As a 4x founder, launching something new is absolutely my jam, but launching two powerful entities at once? That was a first… and I could feel the strain.

Enter Jahmaal Marshall.

We met at Podcast Movement 2024, and from the moment we connected, there was a vibrant resonance between us. We had one of those conversations that goes deep fast… sharing not just what we do, but why and how we serve the world.

As Jahmaal described his unique coaching process, I instantly knew he was the coach I had been searching for. No fluff, no cookie-cutter solutions… just deep, integrated, powerful work.

Jahmaal brings a rare combination of visionary strategy and transformational healing. He helped me zero in on the critical path items that would bring the most impact and sustainability to my work, while simultaneously guiding me through deeper emotional and neurological rewiring. Using neuroplasticity-based techniques, he helped me dissolve a life-long internal block I didn’t even realize was there. It was profound.

Over our 12 weeks together, Jahmaal was a steady, wise, and empowering presence. We did time audits (so helpful!), crafted a compelling sponsorship deck and outreach plan, and created systems and procedures that allowed me to allocate time and energy exactly where it needed to go. He even helped me up my “social proof” game… something I’ve always been great at doing for others, but needed a gentle nudge to do for myself.

His weekly homework assignments kept me grounded and moving forward, and his working document - a living record of milestones and breakthroughs - was especially satisfying for a driver like me. I loved being able to look back and see the transformation unfold in real-time.

Working with Jahmaal has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made in both my professional growth and personal evolution. If you're someone who is ready to expand your impact, deepen your fulfillment, and move through the world with more clarity, confidence, and purpose—do yourself a favor and work with Jahmaal. You will not regret it.

After 12 weeks of coaching with Jahmaal at Listen Then Speak, I can confidently say this experience was truly transformative and far beyond traditional coaching or counseling.

Jahmaal has a rare ability to go beneath the surface and uncover the root causes of stress, anxiety, and behavioral patterns. Through our work, I developed a deeper awareness of how stress was showing up in my body, learned how to regulate it in real time, and gained practical tools I now use daily, including intentional morning rituals, journaling, and reframing my thinking.

What sets Jahmaal apart is his tailored and deeply human approach. Our sessions felt natural and safe, never clinical, yet incredibly effective. He meets you where you are, adapts to how you learn, and equips you with tools that create lasting change rather than temporary relief.

The impact has been profound. I feel more grounded, more in control of my responses, and more aligned in how I approach both life and work. This was not simply an investment in a program. It was an investment in myself that will continue to pay dividends for years to come.

If you are a leader, a professional, or anyone navigating pressure and seeking real and sustainable growth, I highly recommend Jahmaal and Listen Then Speak.
