"My work with Julie allows me to push myself past any pre-set boundaries or limitations. I now believe it is possible to attain any goal I set for myself: one-step-at-a-time... Julie has a razor sharp mind, is very professional yet supportive in a non-judgmental way. She expects a lot from her clients, and delivers a lot - She is conscientious, reliable, and resourceful. She is quick to assess a given situation and help you find a desirable outcome. Anyone who is ambitious and has dreams and goals they want to achieve simply can. Working with a career coach has taught me skills I use in all facets of life: from writing a publication manuscript to planning my wedding in an organized and efficient manner. My dreams are becoming actualized and are no longer vague amorphous thoughts and desires. My life is much fuller and productive now that I know how to be pro-active."

"Being a great listener and an effective communicator, Julie firmly guided me in understanding my strengths and unique skills. Using a variety of examples and analogies she taught me how to bring hobbies into work life. Under Julie's guidance, my career plan started to take shape -- I was able to realize what I wanted to do and it made total sense for me.
Working with Julie is more than a pleasure. She possesses a unique skill of knowing how to probe, how to challenge, and how to encourage and she does it very gently. Julie's coaching allows you to come up with answers to serious challenges without even realizing that you are being coached. Julie's coaching gave me a lot of confidence to make a quick decision at the right moment and to take advantage of an internal opportunity within the company.
This change put me on the path that Julie helped me to define. I look forward to going to work ... thanks to Julie."

"Julie helps me confront difficult questions about myself (What kind of job makes me happy? What do I do to sabotage my success?) in a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere. She also gives me an outlet to explore ideas that my spouse or my family might find outlandish or impractical, till I can develop them to the point where they are ready to be reviewed with tougher critics. And, she provides encouragement and guidance for those key moments when I need reinforcement - such as right before an interview, or after a challenging meeting. Coaching has helped me clarify my personal and professional goals. It has helped me identify my core principles, my standards and boundaries. And, it has helped me push past my comfort zone to learn new things about what I can do."
