Years Experience
I’m Jennifer DiMotta. Operator, founder, board member, coach, habit nerd, dog lover, and someone who believes growth usually starts with one uncomfortable but controllable step.

Before the titles, before the board seats, before being named Colorado’s Most Powerful and Influential Woman — I was a single mom working day and night to pay bills and finish college.
No safety net. No shortcuts. Just stubborn drive and late-night textbooks.
That season built the foundation for everything I teach now: discipline, clarity, and courage when it’s hard.
When I became a VP at a major retailer, the company hired me a leadership coach and it changed everything. For the first time, I saw what real leadership actually looked like. It wasn’t about doing more. It was about leading better.
That experience changed the trajectory of my career and planted a bigger idea. I realized how many talented women never get access to this kind of leadership development.
That realization eventually led me to create Uprisors, where I help women step into their next level of leadership with the clarity, tools, and confidence to rise.
Then came our growth advisory practice — built to help founders scale from chaos to clarity.
Because let’s be honest: growth without systems isn’t growth. It’s survival.
It’s the model I used to help billion-dollar companies scale — and the same one I use now to help founders build businesses that actually work.
Here’s a snapshot of Jennifer’s experience, credibility, and commitment to leadership excellence.
Serving on the board of Midland States Bancorp / Bank, driving strategic and sustainable business growth.

Named Colorado’s Most Powerful & Influential Woman (2014) and among Top 100 Women to Watch (Brand Innovators, 2017).
Guest Professor at The Wharton School and William & Mary, sharing real-world leadership frameworks with future leaders.
Proudly served with discipline and courage — principles that guide every step of her leadership philosophy.
Certified Personal Trainer & Health Coach, championing Leadership Wellness™ as the foundation for lasting success.
Jennifer helped me see my leadership potential in a way no one else had. Within six months, I was promoted and leading with confidence.
