Coaching at the intersection of career and being human.
An executive coach and life-long storyteller, I partner with leaders and aspiring leaders to identify their existing narratives and expand beyond them so that clarity, impact and inspiration can flourish.
The stories we tell have enormous power. Told well, ideas ripple through the world, altering people’s trajectories and actions. Great stories raise funds, elect leaders and spark movements.
The stories we live in are equally powerful. We tell ourselves about the soil we do or don’t come from, the talents that are and aren’t innate in us, and the people who are or aren’t like us. Our stories contain rich wisdom about who we are and what we value as well as limiting beliefs about who we’ll never be.
Together, we’ll use story as a tool for disrupting old patterns and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in work and life.
"Joanie was instrumental in helping me sharpen strategic clarity during a career pivot. She combined deep empathy with disciplined accountability: guiding me to define a clear career North Star, identify distractions, and translate intent into consistent, aligned action. I left our work with renewed confidence, stronger executive focus, and practical frameworks I continue to use - now I'm stepping into a Director role in biopharma as a result of that alignment.”
