You’ve built a successful career But you’re ready for more

Time to own what sets you apart

You’re accomplished and ambitious, but self-doubt and second-guessing are getting in the way of how fully you show up.
You want to increase your influence, step into a bigger role or navigate an important career transition but you need more clarity on how to get there.
You know you bring significant value, but you’re working hard to prove it instead of communicating what sets you apart and ensuring others recognize it.
You’re tired of looking outside yourself for validation and ready to trust your own judgment and be more intentional about what comes next.

I help leaders stand out

I’m a Certified Executive Coach and Executive Positioning Advisor who helps accomplished women articulate, communicate and position their value so they can advance their careers and lead with greater influence, authority and impact.

Over a 30-year corporate career, including as a C-suite executive and senior communications strategist and a decade in executive search, I saw first hand that lack of capability is rarely what holds women back.

More often, it’s second-guessing themselves, underestimating their value or looking outside themselves for validation.

I help you get clear on the value you bring, trust your own judgment and become more intentional about how you position yourself — so you can lead with greater conviction and ensure others recognize what sets you apart.

Because the goal isn’t to become someone else. It’s to trust and fully own the leader you already are.

TESTIMONIALS

Testimonials

“Jacqueline slowed me down and created a safe supportive space where I could challenge my view of myself, others and what’s happening around me. Through our work together, I have been taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture while also clarifying my goals. She asks great questions which have pushed me to understand the deeper root causes of my mindset and how I can be more intentional about about my leadership.”

“As a new CEO, my goals for coaching were to strengthen my brand and my leadership skills. The 360 assessment Jacqueline conducted was a real eye-opener and our work together has helped me change my thinking and my approach. I have become a more thoughtful leader and people manager resulting in a team that feels more valued and invested. I am also more deliberate about spending time ‘on’ the business and how I engage my board in the strategy process. This has driven better performance and increased my credibility as a leader.”

“Jacqueline really understands the challenges leaders face during transition periods. Our work together helped me to stop being so hard on myself and to face my fears.

Jacqueline’s coaching provided the emotional support, tangible tools and accountability I needed to land an exciting new role in an environment where I am thriving.”

I became more aware of negative self-talk and behaviours that were not serving me well. Jacqueline asked powerful questions that helped me reflect and explore new directions without ever feeling overwhelmed. In just six months, I found my confidence as a leader, and learned to promote my value and drive the strategic conversations that have been key to my success.”

This gave me more confidence to ask for what I needed to be successful and led to an exciting new role in an organization that aligns with my values and career vision.”

“I was amazed at how quickly Jacqueline was able to help me get unstuck. She got right to the heart of what I was struggling with and helped me shift my thinking entirely. I am no longer letting my emotions hijack me throughout the day. I have so much more awareness of how I am showing up for myself and others. Setting intentions and letting go of self-doubt has been life-altering.”

“I recently took on a new VP role and was struggling with significant confidence issues. Jacqueline’s coaching helped me to reconnect with who I am and the value I bring.

As a result, I have strengthened my leadership presence and I am making daily decisions that align with what I want for my life and my career.”

“I highly recommend the Career Empowerment Program. It was a great confidence booster and showed us how changes in our internal thought patterns can have a big impact. It reminded me of my strengths and my leadership skills and got me focused on how I was looking from the outside and not just in my head. It helped me to up my game. Jacqueline is a skilled coach who took us out of our comfort zone and pushed us to look at our truth.”
