I retained Julie's services for my daughter with regards to helping her pick a college major that…read morewould fit her personality and long term objectives. My daughter enjoyed working with Julie very much.

So, I originally wrote this review almost four months ago. Julie LaCroix saw the review and…read moreresponded to it. However, did she do anything to make sure she answered the main element of the complaint (that she won't stop spamming me in spite of numerous requests over the years - including those apparently only decorative "unsubscribe" links in her emails?). No. Screen shot for proof. Draw what conclusions you will. Original Review and Comment on Response: I had two appointments with Julie LaCroix several years ago. I ultimately thought the sessions were a waste of time and (quite a lot of) money. She decided my skill set made me a particularly good fit for a specific type of job, and she disregarded my repeated protests that the job in question went against my moral values. She made up her mind and was incapable of hearing anything that didn't align with her first (somewhat arbitrary seeming) idea. She ended our last session by throwing together a ridiculous, typo-ridden resume in a couple minutes targeted at a position I had made clear I would not apply for. (Since that time I finished my graduate degree and am working in a suitable career.) After our second meeting, I was ready to move on and not give career therapists another thought. I have not had that luxury, however, since Julie LaCroix has spammed me and stalked me on social media ever since. Every couple years, I get re-added to her email list which I have never given her permission to put me on, and she has not responded to messages asking her to desist. She also periodically tries to connect with me on social media (she is undeterred by my refusal to connect with her, and, again, does not respond to messages asking her to desist in contacting me). I understand that she thinks networking will help grow her business. I don't understand why she thinks harassing people and ignoring them when they object would be beneficial to anyone. Given her systematic abuse of my personal information, however, I am no longer surprised that she could not process my objection to an unethical career. **Regarding Response** Notice the non-denial regarding the abusive email practices I describe. Also note the absence of a statement that she would address this matter and make sure I am not re-added to her list again in the future. The rest is a matter of he-said-she-said, but why, after 11 years, would I have reason to think of her--much less make random false claims in a review? I would encourage her to check her email (julie@julielacroix.com) to see that I have, in fact, contacted her multiple time over the past 11 years to ask that she stop re-adding me to her spam list. She has also found me years after using her (dis)services and tried to get me to engage with her professional profiles on Facebook and Instagram over the years. The dishonesty/lack of integrity in her response here is appalling.

Hi Juliet- I just…read morewanted to thank you again for all your hard work, understanding, and helpful advice that you have blessed me with during our time working together. I landed a position with one of the city government roles I was targeting here in Orange county! This role has been a great fit for me, and I enjoy and respect the other people I work with, and the people in the community that we serve. I had several offers after our work together and ultimately decided this one was the best fit for me. The work you did with my personality profile, career goals, and resume was extremely helpful and definitely had a lot to do with the number of offers I received. I also performed very well in my interviews not just because of my experience in this field but also because of practicing the questions and hypotheticals we went over together. You are a master of your craft and I will not hesitate to mention you if I have any other contacts who are looking for resume and or career coach professionals with your skill set. Thank you again for everything!

As a recent graduate in May, I found it difficult to ace interviews and navigate job searching,…read moreespecially when many opportunities required more experience than I had. That's when I decided to seek help and was soon recommended to Juliet. Juliet was incredibly helpful, working with me each week to ensure my resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letters were in top shape. She even pointed out things I hadn't considered including on my resume that turned out to be valuable. When it came to interviews, Juliet walked me through the most common questions, offering constructive critiques on what I should and shouldn't say for each one. Her advice was super informative and helped me feel far more confident than before heading into interviews. I really appreciated how she pushed me out of my comfort zone, and noticed how her help made me stand out more to employers. Many of them even complimented how well-written my resume was! I'm super happy to say that I accepted my first job out of college a couple of months ago, and can't thank Juliet enough for her guidance and great advice!

Working with Teresa was a real game-changer. I needed someone who could provide action-able…read moreresources and tools that could help me make a fairly major career pivot. I didn't know where to start, but I noticed that so many of Teresa's reviews had REAL results, like folks actually landing a new career after their time with her. Thankfully, I'm happy to report the same -- and wouldn't be able to say that without her. The Career Clarity Course is a great way to get your wheels turning on possible career changes, and it offers tons of great questions and quizzes to help open your mind to career paths you wouldn't have before. And when combined with in-person sessions with Teresa, it's an incredibly helpful set of tools, since she provides a ton of great, real-time feedback and support that's flexible to your situation. Basically, if you're on the fence like I was, just make the smart move and invest in Teresa's course. You definitely won't regret it!

Teresa is such a fantastic listener and is super empathic. I very much value the sessions I had with her so far.

Before coaching, I felt stuck--questioning whether to stay in my job, explore a new career, or find…read morea different role within my company. Leadership was unclear, constant change left me uncertain, and my confidence in myself and my decisions was at an all-time low. I struggled with self-worth, second-guessing my abilities, and feeling like I had no real direction. Then, I went through the 8-week Clarity Catalyst course, and everything shifted. Almost immediately, I started seeing wins. I experienced a complete mindset shift, gaining not only clarity about my career but also a renewed sense of confidence and trust in myself. For the first time in a long time, I felt empowered to take control of my path. By the end of the program, I had the clarity I was searching for about my career and started taking tangible steps toward my next chapter. My confidence grew, and I finally saw my own value in a way I hadn't before. The program helped me achieve exactly what I was hoping for--clarity, confidence, and the courage to move forward. This experience was truly life-changing. I no longer feel stuck--I feel empowered. Thank you, Amanda!

When I started working with Amanda, I was in the middle of one of the hardest seasons of my life --…read morenavigating a career transition, a divorce, and several personal challenges all at once. I felt mentally, emotionally, and spiritually drained. I wasn't just tired -- I was questioning my faith and wondering why God was allowing so much to happen at once. Amanda met me exactly where I was. Together, we unpacked what was weighing me down, and she gave me tools to approach uncertainty with more curiosity, openness, and resilience. Through our work, I began to see things differently. I realized much of my frustration came from my expectations -- from holding onto how I thought life should unfold. With Amanda's guidance, I'm learning to surrender and trust that new possibilities are unfolding in their own timing. Some of the biggest decisions I faced became a little lighter. Selling my home -- a step toward acceptance in the divorce -- and transitioning into a new firm that felt more in alignment both became acts of faith rather than fear. As I am beginning to release what isn't aligned, I'm starting to notice how life is quietly working in my favor. Through the tools I've learned with Amanda, I've come to the realization that reconnecting with my spirituality will be essential to moving forward. Daily practices like reading scripture, prayer, and reflection are going to be the anchors that help me stay grounded, navigate uncertainty with strength and faith, and return to self-trust and resilience when life feels uncertain." THANK YOU AMANDA!!!!!
