DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU

  • Are you avoiding difficult conversations and tolerating your situation at work?

  • Do you wake up in the middle of the night with your brain on overdrive?

  • Do you ask yourself "how much longer can I sustain this unsustainable pace?"

  • Are you staying in a less than ideal situation because you fear change?

  • Do you find your relationships are suffering because you have no energy left to give them?

 

If any of this sounds like you, then you are in the right place. Book a strategy call with me and we’ll spend up to 45 minutes uncovering what is keeping you stuck and make a plan so you can reach your goals.

IMAGINE IF YOU COULD

  • Feel positive and energetic about your role at work. 

  • Sleep restfully at night and wake up looking forward to what awaits you.

  • Feel confident and valued both professionally and personally.

  • Have the freedom to take care of yourself emotionally and physically.

  • Nurture and invest in your relationships.

 

It is possible and I can show you how.

 

Let's talk about how we can move you from where you are to where you want to go. Book your complimentary strategy session, and we’ll get clear on what’s keeping you stuck and talk about a plan that can set you free.

COACHING SERVICES

I can help you reduce stress and burnout, express yourself with confidence at work, and manage change with fearlessness. I support clients in having awareness around their thoughts and choices and shifting them if they aren’t working.

TEAM WORKSHOPS

When employees are promoted into leadership positions, they often learn new managerial skills on the fly. I offer workshops around some of the most common challenges leaders face in the workplace, including:

+ Conducting difficult conversations effectively

+ Providing feedback to employees

+ Creating effective habits

+ Communicating confidently with presence
+ Managing change with courage

CHANGE MANGEMENT CONSULTING

Resistance is a natural part of change, whether we experience it as individuals, either personally or professionally, or collectively as an organization. The bridge between a solution and a result is people. I offer consulting services for organizations that need change management expertise so that employees can embrace and adopt new ways of working through any business transition or transformation. I'd welcome the opportunity to bring this knowledge into your organization.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

P.B., Senior Director, Enterprise Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Communications

Gillian is an excellent coach who helped me to navigate a challenging period in my life. She listened carefully and reflected back what she heard from me, provided much-needed validation, and perhaps most importantly, asked me probing questions. These questions helped me to have a clearer perspective and arrive at the best possible solutions on my own, both in my professional and personal life. 

J.H., Vice President, Marketing

Gillian is a talented coach. She is such a good listener and provides practical tools to work though big decisions. With her professional and caring approach, she really helped me to create meaningful next steps in this chapter of my life and offered a supportive ear as I navigated through them.

M.M., Vice President, Human Resources

Working with Gillian has been life changing! Her ability to listen, reflect back, and ask thoughtful questions makes her a skilled and valuable coach. Gillian helped crystalize my thinking about what is important to me, personally and professionally. Our discussions provided the inspiration and motivation to drive the change I wanted. This has made me a better leader, co-worker, parent, and spouse.

N.H., Educator

Working with Gillian over these past several weeks has been so beneficial for my mental health. I was in a negative head space with a new position at work. I didn’t realize how badly I needed to talk through how I was feeling, nor did I realize how heavy this issue was weighing on me. The day after my session with Gillian, I felt an enormous weight literally leave my body as I went to work. My whole outlook on the situation took this energetic turn for the better! I now feel more at peace with my new position and I know I’m where I’m supposed to be. It’s a pretty cool thing when your worries/concerns significantly lesson and bring about peace. Working with Gillian does exactly that and more!

J.R., Public Health Communications Strategist

I had the pleasure of working with Gillian professionally in the early 2000s, and just recently, with her as my coach. Gillian has had an innate sense of how to bring out the best in others since I’ve known her. Working with her as a coach, I saw immediate changes in my thinking and an increased self-awareness that allowed me to make small changes in my actions that are already leading to positive results in my life. For example, I speak to others very encouragingly and positively, but turns out I was not doing the same for myself! Having that awareness has helped me to increase my confidence and dream bigger as I approach a job change and an out-of-state move in the middle of a global pandemic. I know I can do this! I have all the skills, and Gillian has helped guide me in how to apply those and still be true to my core values. I’ve just completed my work with her and can’t wait to see what else is in store for me as I navigate these big life changes in the middle of a pandemic. I am no longer letting fear keep me complacent. Instead, I am genuinely excited to see what comes next, I’m open to whatever outcome appears, and have started down that path with more confidence in myself.
