Client results
Every client's path looks different. Here's what the brilliant humans I've worked with have to say about theirs.
People leaping
High achievers who were ready to make a career shift
Landed a new
leadership role
"Nothing is more impactful than when Monika summarizes something you may have been saying for 10 minutes into a simple sentence that propels you to think differently. You feel like you grow together with each interaction."
Darrell
Made the leap
after 21 years
"Over the 18 months we worked together, I felt heard and supported. Monika's tailored advice helped me see new possibilities and build the confidence I needed to make such a significant change after being in the same job for 21+ years."
Kristen
Clarity after
a layoff
"I started working with Monika after being laid off, and our conversations gave me clarity around the kind of work and industry I'd like to pursue moving forward. She's been a consistent sounding board and gut check during my job hunt."
Max
Big goals, actionable milestones
"Monika has a talent for breaking down larger objectives into smaller, more attainable milestones. We set clear action items between sessions, ranging from small immediate tasks to larger long-term objectives. I'm grateful for the positive impact she's had on my career journey."
Harrison
Navigated chronic
illness and role shifts
"I was navigating a lot — role shifts, chronic illness, big team changes. Most career advice doesn't fit people with more complex situations, and I appreciated having someone who could hold space for that. Monika listens, asks great questions, and helps you clarify what's actually going to support you."
Suz
Found space as a
working parent
"Working with Monika held me accountable for actually doing what I said I would do to achieve my vision. I juggle a lot as a working parent. It's easy to say 'I'll focus on myself another time.' Coaching with Monika created space to focus on my own needs — ultimately a win for me and my whole family."
Riley
Reconnected with
her core values
"In one of my favorite sessions with Monika, we dug into my personal and professional values. It was reassuring to reconnect with values that had been a part of me for so long but hadn't been top of mind. Using these core principles as a guide has been super helpful while navigating career and life changes."
Leilani
Kind, direct, never
one-size-fits-all
"Monika is a wonderful balance of kind and direct. Whether suggesting tactics for managing stress, providing insight on specific situations, or holding me accountable for my own goals — there is no one-size-fits-all approach to how she works with her clients."
Kerry
Knew when to push,
when to support
"What I appreciated most is how Monika understood when to push and when to provide support, creating a personalized experience tailored to my needs. She celebrates every success, big or small, and her enthusiasm is contagious."
Stephanie
Never lost
momentum
"Our sessions build on each other, so we never lose momentum. Our conversations often feel like brainstorming sessions — Monika helps me explore different perspectives and come up with new ideas."
Vanessa
Understood her whole
life, not just her career
"Monika took the time to understand my whole life, not just my professional aspirations. She creates a supportive environment where I feel comfortable, understood, and willing to take risks."
