Keys to Satisfaction Interview Series: Take it Easy

"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."

" I hired Julie to be my coach at a time when I had just moved into a brand new position as a second level manager with a major global corporation. I was the youngest person at this level and the only woman. I really felt like I was going to need some support, some guidance, and someone to be on my side. As a direct effect of the coaching from Julie I have delivered results above target and have been rated favorably compared to colleagues with more experience and a longer tenure. Coaching has helped me to convert what would have been vague wishes about the way I want my life to be into reality. As well as getting me further towards what I wanted quicker, it gave me a powerful feeling of taking charge of my life and living it on my terms."

"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. "
