Do you have a 'leap' you need to take?
By 'leap' I mean take a risk, try something new, have a difficult conversation, ask for what you want, in general push the envelope of your happy, comfort zone. To really love your career, you need to be able to 'leap' - make courageous choices. My career has been a series of such leaps, so I am an experienced partner in coaching you to do the same. As your coach, I will have your back as you leap and be there to celebrate with you as well, because it's no fun to ride the roller coaster alone.
I help people to love their careers through strategic 'leap' taking, especially if you are a Geek Girl like me. It'd be my pleasure to help you create and manage a career that is worthy of your potential. Read more

I really take action after our sessions. What I get, and need, from coaching is to stay focused and clear in a very precise way on what I'm trying to achieve.
I've really learned about who I am and what is important to me. I am more goal oriented and have a get-it-done attitude. You've boosted me up and given me confidence, kept me accountable and provided exercises that have made the process quicker.
I've gotten a better understanding of myself which will give me the confidence to move forward. That's the beauty of coaching.
The group coaching was a real eye opener for me. Your session description said, "You will get to know yourself really well." How true! I thought right after the first session that by the end
of the 6 weeks, I would absolutely know what I wanted to do. But, what I have found out, and what is so much more important is, that the foundation must be in place to support my dreams. Now I know the steps I need to take to move forward.
The coaching I received from Joanne provided me with tools and the impetus, as well as encouragement and affirmation of my goals. I learned what is most important to me, what my strengths are, and what I can accomplish with even minor changes. I also learned to believe
in myself and to ask for what I need ("be selfish"), and that doing so improves life for me and for those around me.
Joanne's support was immeasurable. Just to verbally have someone behind me was such a lift. The ability to voice my thoughts without being judged was surprisingly fulfilling. Joanne helped me
to realize that my ideas have merit and gave me that push I needed to make both personal and professional changes. The impact – I applied for a job in a different department and got it, which included a promotion.
Coaching allowed me to find out things about myself that I never would have been able to learn without Joanne's help. It was a journey into myself and a really wonderful, fun experience for me. I can't say enough great things about it. I would recommend Joanne to anyone.
