Coaching Services to Help You Lead with Greater Impact and Ease

"Wendy gently guided me to help me uncover my goals and values as well as prepare for tough conversations and reflect on difficult situations, in a way that was both very concrete and practical and at the same time, thanks to the open questions and reflections offered, very inspiring and enlightening. It helped me gain confidence in myself during a quite tumultuous transition."

"Wendy listens deeply with genuine commitment to our sessions. She is patient and very quick to spot wins that I ordinarily will pass off as ordinary. It was in one of our sessions that I first discussed some team changes which I implemented and I believe saved the company when there was some turbulence."

"Working with Wendy, I learned new tools to help myself (more) calmly adjust/adapt my approach in stressful situations, where historically I may have been much more reactive. I've shifted my perspective on what I personally own/control to reduce the stress and anxiety, as well as burden that I've been putting on myself. Additionally, I've learned how to assert myself in meetings and settings where I need to lead/influence others without direct authority, and have found greater success in achieving my desired outcomes as a result. Lastly, it's just been a fantastic experience to bounce real-time situations off of Wendy to gain an outsider's perspective and guidance on how to more productively approach difficult situations."

"I began working with Wendy after a long period of being unhappy at my job, and having trouble identifying what I could do to find a more fulfilling role. Through my time with Wendy, I was able to hone in on the types of work that interested and excited me the most, and create a plan for how to approach a job search. Wendy asked difficult questions and pushed me to challenge my own assumptions about myself and my abilities. Throughout my time with Wendy, I was able to refine my professional goals, identify where I wanted to take my career, and successfully find a new and much more fitting job."

I’ve held several leadership roles within startups over the years but in the spirit of the endeavors, I largely made it up as I went along or organically tried to emulate the best of the individuals that I’ve been fortunate enough to work with. I realized that to make meaningful progress in the craft of leadership and for the next steps in my career I needed a coach.

Wendy was referred to me by a former colleague and she has been extremely helpful in advancing my skillset as a technology leader. Most importantly, with Wendy  I have made progress in identifying and creating time to contribute to the projects our organization needs to succeed and planning how I communicate with others as an engineer before defaulting to no communication or overly direct feedback.

Throughout the process, Wendy provided useful exercises, sound advice and kept or exceeded the pace of the issues I was concerned about. I certainly feel more grounded and pleased by my day to day work and confident about my progress as a technology leader.

"Working with Wendy was the single best thing I could have done for both my professional and personal life. Friends, family, and colleagues have all commented on the shift they’ve seen in me—both in how I respond to the world around me and how I handle stress in general. Wendy is thoughtful and kind, challenges you when you need it, and asks questions that force you to think about things in a way that drives real meaningful progress. I’d encourage anyone who’s looking to change for the better to talk with her."

"Wendy helped me grow both personally and at work as a people manager. From her coaching, I feel more self-confident and positive about who I am as a leader and how impactful I am as a person. Over the last 6 months, I was able to focus on Positive Intelligence techniques to help me overcome negative emotions and thoughts. At work, I was able to take practical applications from role plays and brainstorms in our coaching sessions to help me through challenging conversations and situations. Wendy creates a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can be open and transparent. She offers accountability and provides encouragement, advice, and guidance in each session. Through this coaching experience, I was able to focus on achieving both personal and professional goals."

"Coaching helped me to reexamine many thought patterns, beliefs and habits that were holding me back and keeping me in isolation. As I began to identify my saboteurs and when they tended to emerge, I was able to work with Wendy to build a new way of working that allowed for more flexibility, community and self-compassion which has led to more business momentum."  

"I have been working with Wendy for several months and it has been extremely productive and life-changing for me. She is understanding, thought-provoking, and gets down to business to ensure a stellar session each and every time we are together—while still laughing and poking fun throughout. She has helped bring out the best in me, deal with challenging or stressful situations, and reached every goal so far that I have made."

"Wendy is direct, incredibly intuitive, and truly invested in my success. She asked well-developed questions and encouraged me to explore deeply. Because of our work together, I have experienced a shift in the way I define my values and show up for myself that has positively impacted me both personally and as a leader."

"After working with Wendy, I find myself much more aware of when I am doing things that help or hinder my happiness and career. Understanding where I am sabotaging myself through being overly critical or pursuing perfection has really changed how I approach work. I find myself less stressed and better able to focus on my key priorities and less distracted by little things that used to consume me. I would highly recommend working with Wendy."

"Wendy helped me focus on my strengths when I was struggling to reinvent my career. She helped me stay focused on the positive things I could offer. Wendy is very positive, energetic, creative, knowledgeable and supportive. It was truly my pleasure to work with her during a very important time in my life."

"Wendy helped me get out of my head and bring my attention to the ways I was standing in my own way. She balanced encouragement and accountability to keep me moving forward as I learned more about myself, my habits, my limiting beliefs and, ultimately, my potential."

"My coaching experience with Wendy was similar to embarking on a journey to a destination I had never been. There’s always the fear of the unknown yet at the same time the excitement of new discoveries. There were times when I felt as if I was going through some of the heaviest turbulences in my life, especially when it came to digging deep inside me. Naturally, I resisted. Afraid of what I would discover about myself. But Wendy oh Wendy, was ever so patient and encouraging.

Today this broken vessel that 6 months ago was enveloped in low self-esteem has metamorphized into a beautiful woman who exudes confidence and is proud of her reflection in the mirror."

“Wendy has been instrumental in helping me find my voice as a leader. She has also helped me tackle some persistent struggles I have had with time management. Wendy takes an empathetic and thoughtful approach with questions that drive at the heart of the matter. I treasure the learning and growth I've achieved with her guidance.”
