Julie brings an extraordinary blend of insight and empathy to her coaching. She helped me to clarify and accelerate a big career transition. I can't imagine where I would be without that guidance. No matter what I bring to a session, I always leave in action toward the things that matter to me.

Julie is thoughtful and warm and helped guide my coaching experience with clarity and ease. She is incredibly skilled at making you feel at ease while challenging you as you work towards your goals.

Working with Julie has been a gift. During a period of profound transition in my life when the way forward was anything but clear, Julie provided the guidance I needed to see what I hadn’t been able to see. Her insight, grace, and humor generated “lightbulb” moments for me that were (and remain) deeply illuminating. She has a knack for creating a safe, playful yet richly exploratory space where discovery and transformation become possible.

I had the pleasure of working with Julie at a time when I felt stuck in some patterns and beliefs that I could see no longer served me or my goals. She was quick to build rapport and break down barriers, which in turn allowed me to playfully explore my true self in a safe space with no consequences. With her guidance and incredible intuition, I had that true "aha" moment, the breakthrough. The realization was inside me all along but I needed help in going there, assistance that Julie so skillfully provided. She is a great coach and I would recommend her to anyone who wants to start a transformative journey to discover their own, personal true North. Go for it!!

When I met Julie, I had a strong desire to write, but no focus. I knew two things: I wanted to improve my writing, and I wanted to find my voice. With Julie’s loving guidance, I surpassed these goals and published my writing for the first time. Julie was the perfect balance of safety and accountability, nurturing my creative risks and holding me to my goals. My writing revolves around my journey with chronic illness, the last subject  I expected to write about. I now have the courage to share my story, advocating for a community I care about, deeply. This wouldn’t have been possible without Julie. Work with her. I promise you’ll surprise yourself in the process!

I was surprised how immediately Julie helped me discover my own personal “inner allies” for guidance, and that they resonated with me so deeply. Julie’s playful and easy manner helped me feel comfortable very quickly and her genuine excitement connecting with my ideas was contagious. I found her work creative, thought-provoking, and super beneficial.-

Julie's approach is playful and compassionate, thoughtful and open. Working with her brought out new perspectives on challenges and questions in my professional life, and I have concrete next steps to continue this personal growth!
