COACHING TESTIMONIALS
"My biggest struggle before working with Chelsea was clarity in my decision-making on what my next steps in my career plans were. Simply put, I was confused.
Coaching with Chelsea helped me find the answers and make the right decisions, importantly leading me to connect to the deeper "WHY". I also became aware of what I wanted or what was important to me, without guilt or shame.
The results from coaching are amazing! the truth is that I underestimated coaching at first. I am very glad I gave it a chance."
“Working with Chelsea has been foundational for my life. Chelsea helped me during a rocky transitional period in my life "life after graduation." Up until this point, I felt like I was navigating life without purpose and direction.
From here, Chelsea worked with me to get back to basics, understanding first and foremost what my values are and the things that bring me joy. Since working with Chelsea, I now have a clear sense of direction for my life. As I move forward in my future, I now identify problematic habits and tendencies that once hindered me and combat these tendencies with tools and positive self-talk that I learned during my sessions with Chelsea.
Overall, I believe that Chelsea is an incredible listener with an immense amount of wisdom and insight. I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a coach to help them take back their power and seek alignment as they go through transitional periods, figuring out their next move with confidence and peace of mind.
Thank you, Chelsea, for all that you’ve done and how you’ve helped me in my life!”
“When I met Chelsea, I was very confused about what I wanted to do professionally and academically as well. It was very stressful and frustrating, to say the least.
After my first session with her, I felt like I had found someone who not only understood what I was trying to say but also made me feel like it was not the end of the world. She let me know that we could work something out. I knew she would help me find my way.
After some sessions, I had a much clearer idea of what I wanted to do and felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I am now working with my leadership on the next step of my professional career. Also, I am about to start a master's program in something I had always wanted to do but had never been able to visualize.
I 100% recommend Chelsea if you are looking for a coach, or just needing to take the next step in figuring out what you want. You will not be disappointed."
“Before working with Chelsea I struggled with figuring out what I wanted to do with my life. Even though I was pursuing digital design, I didn't know what my next steps were going to be. I knew I wanted to do a lot of things, but I was a mess; I didn't know where or how to start.
The fact I had someone, whom I didn't know at first, support and believe in me meant a whole lot. Also, not only did I figure out the next steps for my future, I learned ways to identify future next steps while working through setbacks. While working with Chelsea, I prioritized the many things I wanted to accomplish. After my last coaching session, I finished building my website/portfolio and applied to opportunities I'm super excited for! I'm really happy I worked with Chelsea. I feel so much better about my future after coming out of the sessions.”
"I had the privilege of having Chelsea as my career coach. I was struggling with figuring out what I wanted to do next in my career. I also needed help prioritizing what I should focus on in order to get there. Chelsea helped me gain clarity into what I really wanted by asking insightful questions. The time spent with her greatly exceeded my expectations and helped progress my career forward. Chelsea exemplifies exactly what it means to be a great coach. She is supportive, compassionate, and is an active listener. I highly recommend Chelsea as a career coach!"
“My biggest struggle before working with Chelsea was confusion and limiting beliefs about what’s possible. Coaching has helped me uncover what I want to further explore. It has helped clarify what’s important to me in myself, my relationships, and my career, and brought awareness to my purpose.
And it has been fun!
I feel it was money well spent because it provided me with options I couldn’t see.”
“Thank you so much for your coaching that helped me get clear on the concept for my project Boa's Repair Shop. That was an amazing process!
I recently got a fellowship that will support me to bring the project into the world! It's a huge honor and it means that Boa's Repair Shop will be "opening its doors" in the virtual space soon.”
"Before working with Chelsea I felt the weight of indecision and uncertainty in my career path. I felt out of focus and unsure of my path. I felt stunted and unable to take a step towards a change that I felt pressured to make.
I feel more aware of and aligned with my core values, and I use them to steer me, rather than being influenced by external influences and pressures. I have found peace and contentment in my decisions, and confidence in my contributions, my value, my worth.
I got tremendous value in my work with Chelsea. Chelsea worked with me to help guide me through incremental and methodical steps towards self-understanding and self-discovery.She offered me an opportunity to narrow my focus, hone my perspective, and recognize my purpose. I fell more in tune with my ‘why’ and am confident in my path and decisions. I feel peaceful!"
“Chelsea’s expert coaching enabled me to change my perspective from unconfident and resigned living with a career situation that was unhealthy and uninspiring, to finding new confidence and a positive feeling of self-worth and wellbeing. Through asking open-ended, poignant questions and guiding me through targeted exercises, Chelsea encouraged and inspired me to take actionable steps to change my mindset and ultimately, my career situation to a positive, healthy outcome. She made me realize that I don’t have to settle – that I am worth the time, energy, and investment to find a career situation that brings me joy, meaning, and purpose. I cannot emphasize enough how impactful this experience has been to me and how grateful I am to Chelsea for guiding me through it. Thank you, Chelsea!”
“Before I started working with Chelsea I was struggling with how to stay motivated in my job search. The startup I had been working at just closed its doors and I was crestfallen and was feeling overwhelmed with how to move forward and find a new position. Chelsea helped me put the building blocks together to not only find the motivation to continue on my job search but also to put together a cohesive strategy to bring in freelance/consulting income so that I didn’t have to worry about where money was coming in while searching for a new position. Through her coaching, she taught me to stay motivated, confident, and focused and I honestly couldn’t have done it without her! I would recommend her to anyone struggling with career decisions!”
“I’m in the midst of a substantial professional reboot. And in the short, powerful 30 minutes I spent in a coaching session with Chelsea, she took me from a state of ambiguity and confusion to one of clarity and inspiration. Wow, I feel ready to move to a new level of career exploration!”
“I think you are wonderful and everyone who gets coached by you is lucky - including me!”
"I am beyond grateful for my time with Chelsea. When we started meeting, I felt frustrated with my current role. I was on my fourth manager in just over a year (for the same position) with no clearly defined roles or responsibilities. I wanted to leave the company I had been with for over a decade. I was D-O-N-E. I was looking for clarity on what to do next, permission from myself to exit my comfort zone and to walk away having more confidence in my abilities. After a couple of calls, those boxes were ticked! I made several connections outside of my current company, confidently interviewed with another, and advocated for myself (and my interests and abilities) in my current role. While there hasn't been an offer from the company I interviewed with, I'm much more content with where I currently stand. I'm not closing any doors, but I'm not rushing to get out of them either. Chelsea's conversational coaching style urges you to open up and look beneath the surface. There were several times I was surprised by what I was telling her, as I didn't realize I felt a certain way (or perhaps didn't want to let myself feel that way). She's not going to give you answers, rather she'll help you give yourself answers during your conversations. If you are looking at pivoting in your career, staring down a massive life change, or need an outside voice to help you dig deeper, connect with Chelsea."
"Before working with Chelsea I was struggling with applying for positions and securing interviews.
Through the coaching experience, I am rooted and connected to my values and strengths. I have secured multiple interviews and am consistently applying for direct full-time positions while continuing to work with recruiters.
Coaching is the bridge I needed (post job loss) to help me move towards my next career goal with confidence and ease.
The results I received are invaluable to me."

SPEAKING TESTIMONIALS
"My company hired Chelsea to facilitate a virtual Networking workshop for a group of about 40 solutions engineers. From the moment we engaged her with a vague idea of what we were hoping to accomplish, Chelsea was prescriptive and collaborative, helping us define the scope of the workshop, tailor it to the very specific needs and experience of our audience and develop a plan for follow-up that included several additional resources. As a speaker, Chelsea seamlessly combined original content with story-telling and authenticity to connect with her audience in a way that was personalized, professional, and very well-received. I cannot overstate how much value Chelsea’s approach brought to our event and our participants, who left the session not only with new knowledge but also, a clear plan of action to move them forward in their work and their careers."
"That was awesome and so interactive. People told me how incredible you are and how the talk was so relevant. I have never seen so many people interact as much as they did today. Amazing, you're a natural at this."
