From Our Clients
"I wasn't very familiar with coaching before I started the process with Julie so I wasn't sure what to expect. Any expectations I had were far surpassed however. As a PhD student writing my thesis far from my home campus, I needed help to develop a realistic workplan and to overcome my feelings of isolation. The support and guidance that I received from Julie was pivotal in helping me to construct a productive at-home work environment. In addition to helping me realize my work objectives, coaching helped me to examine and articulate my core values in life. A heightened awareness of my values was particularly useful when I decided to delay going on the academic job market for one year due to the arrival of our first child. In this way, coaching helped me to break down my workload into doable pieces and to establish a realistic timeline for the project. Coaching helped me to define and realize my goals, connecting my macro-objectives and values to my everyday micro-level tasks."

"Working with Julie has really helped me to move ahead with my professional life, and in particular, my professional self-image, which is such an important part of career success. I now feel more confident in my own professional abilities, and this translates into better quality work as well as a better overall feeling about my career. Coaching has also allowed me to view my life as an integral whole, rather than the sum of different parts. Seeing my life as a whole has enabled me to become a more balanced person and to weather life's storms more successfully. Julie is a very supportive and attentive person. She is very accessible to her clients and encourages me to contact her throughout the week to share news and ideas with her. "

"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."
