Coach for Leaders, Creators, and Parents

I help you figure out who and where you want to be,

and how to get there

 

A partner to help you

uncover your own insights

Together we will…

…help you navigate that difficult conversation, that life transition, that change you want to bring, that feeling that there is something more out there for you, but you aren’t sure what it is, or how to do it. I will help you discover what lights the flame in your heart and makes you exclaim “Heck, Yes!”. I also help you piece together how you’d like to approach challenges in your outer world in a way that feels authentically you.

You’ll feel…

…lighter, and more grounded, with a clearer sense of who you are and where you’re heading. You’ll notice yourself moving through challenges with more courage and ease. The noise quiets, your own voice grows stronger, and what once felt heavy or confused starts to feel clear and possible. You’ll have a renewed energy and confidence, and a sense that your path is truly your own.

What I love about coaching…

…is being present with you. I listen, observe, reflect, and help you bring light to your path. I like to think of it as handing you a flashlight and then holding space while you explore your inner and outer worlds. After some time, we may start to see patterns and their impact, and we can explore what you want to do with this insight, and how.

  • I love my sessions with Gillian! Every time I leave, I feel so reflective, renewed, and ready to tackle my goals! She's such an amazing listener. Her thoughtful questions and responses really make me feel understood and appreciated. She encourages me to reflect deeply on what I truly want and need, and helps me figure out how to take the necessary steps to achieve them.

    Gillian brings such a wonderful energy of curiosity, understanding, and insight to our time together. Her questions prompt me to think in ways I never have before, and thanks to her, I've discovered a new level of self-awareness that I didn't even know was possible! I can’t recommend Gillian enough as a coach! If you’re seeking clarity and direction to achieve your goals in a supportive, non-judgmental setting, Gillian is definitely the right person to turn to!

  • I worked with Gillian after suffering a burn out and then subsequently while making a career transition. This being my first experience working with a coach, I wasn’t too sure what to expect, but through active listening, she helped me decipher what I was seeking in terms of a career, what values I wanted to look for in a new workplace, weigh job offers and prepare for salary conversations.

    Gillian has a keen ability of helping you connect the dots to reach a conclusion that felt unattainable at the start of the session; and her approach is extremely compassionate, supportive and pragmatic.
