“I was tired of asking people to recommend me.
Even though I’d never heard of a career coach, something about Anne made me feel this was worth a shot. Plus, my best friend loved her. Anne gave me hope. And homework. Not only did she help me prepare for a big interview at an ad agency, but she actually knew three of the people I was meeting with. Even though I didn’t get that job, they called me back for freelance work. And just recently, I got a full-time job!”

“Career coaches, in my experience, are a bit like bad personal trainers.
They have their own idea of what’s going to work, but they can’t tailor it to fit you. They just want to push you into their own model of success. But from the first email with Anne, I just got a good vibe. I got on the phone with her and thought, ‘I like this person! I think this is the person I want to bounce ideas off of.’”

“I never thought I could make a good living doing contract work, but Anne helped me see that I could.
She wasn’t just talking about feelings and reflecting things back to me. She actually helped me figure out what to do. She gave me my confidence back. With Anne’s help, I decided to transition from full-time to contract work.”

“I’d worked for the same company for 12 years, and it felt like everything was coming at me at once but I wasn’t moving forward.
I felt stuck. My family and friends were supportive, but they either didn’t really know my industry or how to get me unstuck. Anne really got my industry—creative publishing — so I trusted her judgment. She helped me see that moving forward wasn’t a crazy idea — it was doable. I’ve been out for three weeks now. Oh my goodness, it’s a good feeling. Empowering. I didn’t keep waiting for something to happen or for something to change. I did something about it.”
