Empowering Coaching Experience
Working with Courtney was one of the most empowering experiences of my career. I came to her knowing I was ready for the next step but unsure how to fully own it. Through her thoughtful guidance and practical coaching, I learned to trust my instincts, stop seeking permission, and lead with confidence. Courtney has a remarkable ability to see both the strategic and human side of leadership — she listens deeply, challenges thoughtfully, and tailors her approach to your individual goals. Her mentorship helped me shift my mindset, strengthen my self-belief, and take action with clarity and purpose. I’m truly grateful for her partnership and highly recommend her to anyone ready to step into their next chapter with confidence and authenticity.

Professional Fulfillment and Career Progress
I began working with Courtney right before landing my first 'head of...' role. I wanted to turn that corner from subject-matter expert to strategic, impactful leader. Courtney went far beyond tips and tricks of the trade; she had customized solutions for me based on a variety of attributes, including personal AND personality considerations. This was so important because its impossible to fully separate work from home. Courtney has an incredible ability to help me define my goals and career direction with practical guidance and motivation. Every session was authentic and tailored to me; no cookie cutter advice or cliches. Courtney listens deeply, truly cares about my success, challenges me thoughtfully, and helps me consider things I normally would not. Because of Courtney, I am more confident in my ability to lead and deliver effectively, influence stakeholders and develop my executive presence, and establish the narrative of my brand / value-add. I cannot recommend her enough!

Take a stand for yourself
I came to Courtney feeling stuck on my career growth and dreading the job search after a previous difficult experience. I hesitated to invest in coaching, firstly because I didn’t know her and I wasn’t certain of the value. But taking that leap turned out to be one of the best decisions I made.Courtney brought structure and clarity to my search when I needed it most. More importantly, she helped me think bigger about my personal brand, drawing out details and strengths I couldn’t see in myself. She coached me to articulate my experience at a senior level and was genuinely invested in my success.Over three months, she was both my strategist and accountability partner. She adapted to whatever challenges came up, even things we hadn’t planned for initially. The result? I landed a senior-level position I hadn’t even envisioned when we started.If you’re considering working with Courtney, my advice is this: the cost of staying stuck is real. She’ll help you see possibilities you can’t see on your own and give you the tools and support to get there. It’s an investment that pays off.

Courtney came highly recommended
Courtney came highly recommended, but my only hesitation initially was how she could differentiate herself from other coaches. Courtney’s style, knowledge, follow through, and overall approach far exceeded my expectations. Courtney has a lot of great corporate experience and she was not only able to relate to my challenges, but she provided me with many new and insightful perspectives, as well as increased my confidence level and presence. If you are looking for a coach that is personable, accomplished, and can challenge you and really bring out the best in you, Courtney is an amazing choice.

The best support when I needed it
When I got laid off, my first challenge was getting my confident back. Next was getting my online presence and resume updated. In the meantime, the unexpected part was needing to grow into a new and challenging role, quickly. Courtney was with me every step of the way, encouraging me, helping me get my confidence back and shore up how to position myself. She even helped me prepare to ask for a raise, which I got. Maybe most importantly, she asked for daily accountability and creating a real vision of what I wanted to look like. If you are on the fence about getting a coach, you have to think of it as an investment in yourself. It absolutely makes a difference if you want to grow. And Courtney is the best.

Courtney Is a Fantastic Coach!
If you need to change how you approach your career development, I highly recommend that you talk to Courtney. I first reached out to Courtney for help when I felt that my career had stagnated. I had been at my firm for more than 25 years and risen to a very senior management position, but was getting bored and began to feel that my contributions were being overlooked. I compared several career coaches but Courtney's posts on LinkedIn really resonated with how I was feeling. After our first conversation I knew she was the right person for me.Courtney helped me work through my feelings about my job situation and changed my mindset. She is a great listener and excelled at getting below the surface to identify where I was getting in my own way. She provided an objective view of my situation and also offered practical advice to help me identify and evaluate my choices. Most importantly, she really boosted my confidence.Ultimately, I decided to retire from that position and take some time off. Since then, Courtney has been instrumental in helping me prepare for interviews with other firms. These interviews have been going extremely well and I attribute my success in large part to Courtney's coaching and cheerleading.

Mastering your mindset for the win!
I thought I had hit a wall on my career path. The reputation i built over the past 25 years suddenly felt diminished. I was struggling with self doubt and bitternes about circumstances that were largely out of my control. I saw Coutneys video and watched it and I knew she was talking to me. During our first consult wile sharing my personal situation and hearing Courtney's feedback and guidance I knew a journey of healing and learning was about to begin for me. I was honestly on the fence when discussing cost. But I realized that I had so much more to offer and I was worth the investmemt on myself. It has been well worth it! I have renewed confidence in myself and it has been noticed and recognized. I feel like this journey is just starting for me- no limits and no fear!

Outstanding Coaching Experience with Courtney
I had always wanted to work with an Executive Coach, but I was hesitant because I wasn’t sure if I would find someone who would be a good fit for me. I found Courtney during a very difficult and dark time in my career - dead end position, no growth opportunities, toxic work environment, no advocates who were supportive of my professional goals, and a new manager who didn’t respect my skills, background and experience. From the very first conversation, Courtney made me feel comfortable. She truly understood where I was and how I felt, and she helped me realize that I was worthy and deserving of more in my career and my life. I didn’t need to stay “stuck” and continue to feel stuck inside the hamster wheel going nowhere, even though I worked hard, loved my job, and my team, and was extremely dedicated to my role within my organization. Courtney gave me all the resources I needed to get my head back in the game, to rebuild my self confidence, and to guide me in a job search that ultimately landed me in a new and better place, where I feel happy and fulfilled again. Most importantly, I feel truly respected by my new manager and I can see the path forward for my career from here. Courtney challenged me and pushed me in ways I truly needed to discover what I wanted, where my passions were, and who and where I needed to be in order to achieve my goals. I truly enjoyed my time working with Courtney and the relationship I have built with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who may be in a similar career situation and in need of help and support. I know this isn’t the end of my professional growth journey with Courtney, and I will definitely engage her in the future when the time comes for me to take the next big step in my career.

I am so happy that I decided to sign on…
I am so happy that I decided to sign on the dotted line to work with Courtney. It was a financial investment that I was worried to make. I dug into that worry and realized that I was afraid to invest in myself. Upon meeting Courtney in our discovery call to make sure we were fit, I felt so held and heard. At that point, the decision was much easier. Courtney has challenged me to take a look at the way that I was treating my business and more importantly myself. I wanted to find a way to grow my business and develop certain skills, but what I realized In working with her is that I already already have the skills But needed to work on chipping away at the beliefs I have that are holding me back. She told me there would be a homework involved and I would have to make a commitment to getting out of my comfort zone. I was pretty much hooked at that point because I knew that she was going to hold me to task but in a compassionate and caring way. Her background with HR and business in general gave me the confidence That this was going to be a game changer for me. If you are in the same place and feeling that you can’t make the financial investment really question that because you are worth it and Courtney is worth it. My journey in progress, but I know that with Courtney’s help and guidance that the sky is the limit.
