FEEDBACK FROM A SAMPLING OF OUR CLIENTS

"I would recommend working with Kimberly for anyone at a career crossroads. When I first started working with her, I was unsure of my next steps, but her guidance helped me define my priorities and goals.

She provided invaluable insights on identifying my strengths and how to effectively showcase those skills in both my resume and interviews. Her advice on job search strategies, resume revisions, and navigating challenging conversations gave me the tools I needed to manage my career with confidence. Most importantly, she pushed me out of my comfort zone and I am deeply grateful for the support and direction she provided."

"I was fortunate enough to have Kim as a Leadership Coach during the Spring/Summer of 2024. Over the course of six sessions, Kim provided guidance and feedback which allowed me to successfully navigate several management and career challenges in an authentic manner that aligned with my long-term goals.

Kim is approachable, objective, and understands the nuance required to address complex issues in large organizations. I cannot recommend her enough to those looking to ensure they are able to capitalize on professional opportunities and seek an impactful coaching experience."

- Dan B, U.S. Government

"Kimberly has an exceptional ability to quickly synthesize information, extract key insights, and ask powerful questions that get to the heart of the matter. She then delivers her advice with incredible clarity and speed.

As Board President, we've faced some challenging situations requiring multiple pivots in strategy, all while needing to move quickly. Kimberly's insights throughout these changes created much-needed clarity, which I was then able to effectively communicate to the rest of the board. I've personally benefited from her guidance as an advisor and coach in the past year, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a strategic and impactful coach."

- Tina Dao, founder, Liberated Leaders

"I had Kimberly referred to me by another person who had used her. To say the least, she was extremely helpful and a true expert in her field.

I thought I had everything squared away in my job hunt process before engaging with her. After meeting with her, I can say that from meeting one, she changed my perspective and approach, and gave me actionable suggestions that improved my interviews and job hunt process tenfold. I could not be more grateful and I would recommend her to anyone."

She simultaneously slows you down (when warranted) and keeps moving you forward. I found her style fresh and motivating - when I was navigating a tricky situation Kimberly helped me cut through the noise to get going on what mattered."
