TESTIMONIALS

  • “Working with Jocelyn has been life changing. I've worked with her for three years, and within our first two sessions, she opened my eyes to how much I could grow as a business leader, and how much better I could feel day to day.

    I’m a co-founder of an early stage startup, and Jocelyn has helped me throughout the roller coaster of COVID, hiring, layoffs, and finally growing revenue. She helped me with the most important and difficult issues - like making time for non-urgent but high value tasks, having hard conversations, and overcoming my toxic self judgment and fear of failure. Thanks to her, I lead with integrity and focus on what really matters at work.

    Jocelyn also improved my personal life dramatically. Before working with her, I was often impatient with my young children and resentful that I couldn’t work more to make my startup succeed. I felt overwhelmed. After a lot of honesty, reflection and work with Jocelyn, I feel so much better now. I’m more present with my kids. I coach them with their own difficulties using the tools that I learned from Jocelyn. My spouse says that I’m a more supportive partner. And overall I’m enjoying life instead of feeling stressed out all the time.

    I highly recommend Jocelyn as a coach. She could change your life too.”

    Chris Lau, Founder & Chief Executive Officer

  • “Jocelyn has had a profound impact on my professional and personal growth in the 2 years I've worked with her. I have brought an incredible scope of challenges to Jocelyn from moving countries to changing careers to striving for a healthier lifestyle; in every single session she has brought me not only clarity and actionable strategy, but a rare combination of empathy, realness, and kindness that has created the perfect environment for my imperfect path of self-improvement.

    I've noticed my mindset shifting beyond our sessions in how I approach and respond to challenges within myself, at work, and in my personal relationships. It's impossible to quantify the golden ripple effect of working with Jocelyn. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to learn from her and recommend her coaching to anyone looking to improve how they engage with themselves and the world around them.”

    Stephanie DeFranzo, Product Designer

  • “Jocelyn helped me gain the clarity and confidence to start a new chapter of my life and career. When I met her, I felt stuck, uncertain and overwhelmed, unable to prioritize much-needed changes. She listened deeply and asked important questions, helping me feel understood so that I could better understand myself. She gave guidance that was thought provoking and actionable, so that I could own and track my progress. Her approach is compassionate, warm and professional, and I appreciated her neuroscience background as well as her consistent sharing of resources beyond our calls. I so value what I've learned from our time working together and would recommend Jocelyn to anyone looking to make real change.”

    Amalia Nelson, Product Designer

  • “Jocelyn doesn’t just scratch the surface of well-being, she really goes there. She is compassionate, bold and holds space with unwavering attention and power. I felt seen and empowered by Jocelyn’s coaching. I have insights and dreams I never before considered. She believed in me until I could believe in myself. Now I see a future beyond what I could ever imagine.”

    Libby Christenson, Life Coach

  • “When I started working with Jocelyn I wasn't sure of the career (or life) direction I wanted to go in. I felt aimless and unsure of how to activate on finding a more fulfilling path. Her positivity and encouragement pushed me to pursue something that lit me up and explore how that could be possible. She listened with care and worked with me to create actionable goals. We created tasks to hold me accountable to put in the time to work on areas I had always thought about exploring but never prioritized. My current career change and new habits are due in large part to her guidance, support, and positivity.”

    Rachel Downes, Director, Product Management
