In those…read more11+ years I have gone back to school to get my degree, changed careers, gotten laid off twice (once during 2020), found work again in less than two months, and always found something higher-paying and with a better commute every time, as if the layoffs were a hidden gift. I have also nearly tripled my salary since I first saw Amanda and am much more satisfied with my line of work. I am also grateful to have found a new job in my field with a company that is hiring since I'm in a field in which the layoffs are higher right now. If I had never been a client of hers, I expect that I would be still be in a job that I didn't care about, making about half of what I make now, and working it only for the paycheck. Seeing Amanda was hands-down the best career decision that I ever made. My sanity, self-confidence, and bank account thank her. You will too, after a few sessions.

I have always struggled with cover letters/resumes but was skeptical that someone would be able to help me. I went to the website and booked a free 20 minute consult with Inayah to discuss more indept what I was seeking. When it was time for the consult, she was professional and asked me what my current status is. If I was unemployed or in between careers. I told her that I am currently employed full time but in order to grow within my organization, I need to have a revised email. I gave her a copy of my 3 year old resume which was close to 3 pages long. Within a week, she provided with a draft to look over and double check. She hightlighted areas where I did not provide to her such as dates etc. Truly recommend her and the resume looks clean and professional. The font and size is great. All on one page which is why Im raving about it.

To me, writing my own résumé was like cutting my own hair. You might think 'who knows your head…read morebetter than you?' but personally I find it comes out better if someone else with experience does it. Working with Madelyn and Nikki I encountered first-class people, top-drawer service, and a great outcome. My résumé got such a great makeover, I hardly recognized that it was me that it represented, it seemed like someone much more impressive. I was amazed that while the content was basically the same, the layout, and language was so much more eye-catching and compelling. Since I started using the revamped version, I've actually been getting more contacts, phone screens, and interviews. Coincidence? TBH I don't know but I'm glad I took the step to get help from Madelyn and Nikki. As others have said, there are lots of people offering to re-do your résumé and it's hard to know who to trust. I'm glad I went with these guys, however. They really get it, their creativity, professionalism, and enthusiasm are hard to top.

My first meeting with Coach Colleen Campbell felt like meeting with a long time friend, she is warm and encouraging. At first I thought I only required resume review assistance and interview coaching, but over the approx. 8 months that I met with Coach Colleen Campbell, she provided much more. We collaborated together to articulate my work-related values, strengths and overall career criteria. As we identified potential industries and roles that would be a fit, she provided valuable targeting and interviewing strategies to help stand out.

The interview process was where I was the most nervous but with all the tips and tricks Lucas provided I was extremely confident during each interview as the prepping really paid off. While going through interviews Lucas was extremely supportive and flexible with his schedule to ensure I was ready for every round.

I toyed with the idea of making a drastic career change but was paralyzed with indecision for a while. I figured I should probably find a professional career coach to help me get some clarity, and that is when I met Lucas. Lucas took the time to really try and understand my career situation, so that we could formulate a plan that was unique to me. We started with career aptitude tests which helped me learn more about myself. We defined and prioritized my career goals, and explored the many paths I could take to reach them. Also, Lucas is a resume magician, transforming my plain, wordy resume into a much more impressive, concise one. He also helped me with my LinkedIn profile which I appreciate since I am a total LinkedIn newbie. He basically did almost everything he could to set me up for success. I highly recommend Lucas whether you are starting out in your career or changing your current career path. He can provide the support, insight, and accountability to help you achieve your goals.

Honestly I was really…read moreparanoid about any career counseling because it feels like just anyone can advertise themselves as effective but Gretchen really knows the tech work intimately from experience and just has such good advice, not just on the job finding process but about company cultures and the way tech companies think.

I cannot say enough good things about Gretchen. I started working with her when I moved from…read moreCalifornia to a new state where I had no professional network. First, Gretchen helped me define what I was looking for in a new job and research organizations aligned with my goals. Next, she took the pain out of writing a resume and cover letter by helping me highlight and take credit for the important stuff and rolling accomplishments up into big measurable wins. Finally, she's an ace at interview prep. She can quickly assess what themes to focus on and which to leave out and how to answer those annoying 'tell me about yourself' questions. An hour spent with Gretchen will save you 5 hours of muddling through, iterating, and second-guessing yourself - a spectacular return on investment for a busy mom like me. I just nailed my first C-suite level interview and am on to the final round. Thanks Gretchen!

Eve has helped me understand myself, step back and look at the facts around me. From the very first session, I felt seen, heard, and held in a space that was both protected and compassionate. Her presence is calm and accepting, while remaining strong and focused. What sets Eve apart is her intuitive ability to understand what lies beneath the surface. She asks the right questions--not just to gain insight, but to gently guide me toward my own understanding and growth. She listens without judgment, offer reflections that resonate deeply, and creates an environment where honesty and vulnerability feel not only possible, but are welcomed. Throughout our work together, I've gained not only clarity and coping tools, but also a renewed sense of self--more whole, more connected, and more resilient. Eve doesn't offer quick fixes; she walks with you through the work, encouraging you to show up for yourself with patience, grace, and courage.
