Your journey has moulded you for your greater good. And it was exactly what
it needed to be. Don't think that you've lost time. It took each and every
situation you have encountered to bring you to the now.
And now is right on time.

BOOK
Our career conversations vary depending on whether you opt for coaching or consulting. What's the difference? A coach knows what questions to ask and a consultant knows what answers to give.
​
→ For coaching programs, you can expect to
​
-
determine your coaching topic and reflect on your progress between sessions.
​
-
do most of the talking while your coach helps to facilitate your learning and growth.
​
-
be accepted, valued and regarded as your own best expert.​
​​
-
have your coach adhere to the International Coaching Federation Code of Ethics.
​
→ For consulting engagements, we are committed to
​
-
speaking from personal experience and sharing our own lessons and vulnerability.
​
-
offering you well-informed advice and guidance.
​
-
serving your best interest as our only agenda.
​​
-
withholding judgment and biased opinions because, well, it's not about us.
​
Additionally, no two sessions will be the same—you and your coach/consultant will co-create each one based on your individual circumstances and stated goals.

General Counsel
I have known Lisa professionally for many years. Over that time, she has frequently counselled me about my career. Lisa is logical, grounded and wise. She has helped me navigate some difficult decisions and her steady and thoughtful approach has been invaluable.
If and when you're at a career crossroads, Lisa is the ideal professional to consult with. She will challenge you, facilitate the goal setting process and hold you accountable for taking action. While you'll need to do the work, she will push you to expand your thinking and help you grow. I highly recommend her services.
SENIOR CONSULTANT
I met Lisa at a challenging time in my career when I was considering a major job transition. Her focus was on supporting me, and we developed a strong collaborative partnership, which still thrives today. I really appreciate Lisa's creative approach to helping me find the best outcome, her ability to ask the right questions and her willingness to weigh-in at the exact moment it's needed the most.
