About Jean

CEO. Speaker. Mentor.

Jean Leggett is the CEO and co-founder of games & edtech startup One More Story Games. Alongside her husband of 22+ years, Jean and Blair have developed a simplified publishing platform to help storytellers create and publish narrative games. They're setting out to re-engineer literacy by way of story games. In 2014, 2 years after Blair's near death experience, the Leggetts joined forces as the hacker and the hustler, raising over half a million dollars for their startup. They've created and published 7 games, signed #1 NYT bestselling author Charlaine Harris to adapt her serious mystery series (Lily Bard) and taught video game development camps and after school programs to local youth aged 8-16. Jean brings her background in standup comedy and mindfulness coaching to the company - as a champion for all stories to be told in games. Her keynotes include: the startup journey of OMSG, joy mindfulness and the experience as a hard of hearing child in a deaf family. Jean has spoken internationally, most recently in Munich, Poznan and Melbourne.

Testimonials

Clients rave about Jean!

The audience waited in anticipation for Jean and held on to her every word. Jean has this way about her, this ease, that allowed each and everyone in that room to be comfortable with who they are and why they were there, to laugh, to love and to let go for even just a moment. Jean’s witty sense of humour mixed with her intellect made for an authentic delivery of the wisdom she imparted with us on how to find the elements of joy in our lives. We all left the event that day with a lighter step and joy in our hearts.

Jean is an amazing and consummate coach who has an infectious joie de vivre (French: joy of living). So easy to talk with, she makes you feel comfortable. She is very committed to helping people reach their goals with clear and concise plans of action. She doesn’t hesitate to share her tools with others in a real personal way. Jean has helped me to make a career transition and to take empowered decisions.The huge benefit of JOY Bootcamp is that it has given me a clearer and a positive vision of my goals and of my inner values. In less than a couple of weeks with Jean, I had already achieved major changes. I cannot thank Jean enough for the wonderful insight, support, and belief in me!

Because of my work with Jean, I am at the professional level I am now. I did the work, but she was my personal cheerleader and coach that helped me get there. She brings forward a multitude of questions and focus, but she is genuinely interested in my success, and it makes me feel like if there’s no one else that gets what I’m trying to do – at least one person will. She challenges me to go outside my comfort zone by taking those safe steps so that I can really feel good about where I’m at and that I’m always moving forward in some way.
