I had been in the same job for 12 years and after my second baby, I knew that I wanted something different. Like most people, I was scared of taking the leap and not sure what I wanted to do next. I had tried other coaching programs and read all the career books, but I was "stuck" and something kept me from actually making the leap. Teresa helped me identify what I wanted my day-to-day life to look like, which then helped me systematically evaluate different job options and clearly see which ones fit the life that I wanted. She helped me work through the fear of change and think through "worst case" scenarios (which actually weren't that scary!). I really trusted Teresa's coaching because of her background as an extremely successful professional and her no-nonsense style of communication and feedback. I also appreciated that she continued to check in after I made the job switch and when I needed it, reminded me of my "why's" and what I had identified as my priorities. I have recommended her to several of my friends who are wanting to make changes in their life, and I will continue to use her coaching in my new role!

My coaching with Teresa was very effective in helping me to set and achieve personal and professional goals. Teresa converses in a thoughtful, considerate, super-supportive and encouraging manner and I found myself inspired and motivated after our sessions! Through her skillful questioning, I was able to see and understand things about myself that I had never thought of or that I thought I already knew! Overall, a very positive experience.

In my first call with Teresa, she was able to pin down what was really driving me at work – my desire to be a leader within my company – and why I wasn’t happy with how it was going.

We explored these two ideas at length. She helped me crystallize my thoughts and map out how to position myself as a leader. She also helped me build the confidence and overcome my reluctance to ask for support and assistance in identifying a new role that might suit my skills and business knowledge.

About a month later I was promoted to a strategy role in a new area of the business. I have no doubt that today I would be searching for jobs online but for Teresa’s clarity of perspective and insistence that I had the power to make change in my professional life.

In my new role, I know that there will be new challenges and frustrations, but I know that I’ll have Teresa as a resource when I need her. She has been a sounding board, provided new perspectives for me, challenged my assumptions, helped me focus my energies on things I had the power to change, and ultimately accelerated my path to reaching my professional goals.
