About Jamie

My career journey has been a series of unexpected twists and turns. From navigating a sudden company reorganization during my honeymoon to leading the product team in a high-growth startup aiming to be acquired, I've faced challenges that tested my resilience and pushed me to my limits. One defining moment occurred when I found myself as the VP of Product Management in a meeting with the CEO, expressing concerns about a product idea. Despite the initial discomfort, I knew I had to speak my mind. I told him, "You hired me for my voice, even if you don't always like what I have to say." This experience reinforced the importance of authenticity, courage, and speaking one's truth, even when it's challenging. These experiences have instilled in me the importance of self-belief, reflection and the power of resilience. I've learned to navigate uncertainty, overcome self-doubt and prioritize my well-being amidst demanding circumstances. I've also learned the importance of leaning into gumption - that inner fire that drives us to take action, embrace challenges and become the leaders we are meant to be. And guess what? I'm passionate about partnering with you through your own transformational journey. Recognized as the Top Women's Empowerment Coach by Coach Foundation and among the Top 15 Coaches in Chicago by Influence Digest Media in 2023, I believe that by cultivating self-awareness, building strong foundations and embracing a growth mindset, YOU can overcome any obstacle and achieve your potential. By embracing your inner leader and cultivating tenacity as a way of life, you can navigate uncertainty with confidence and create a life (not just a career) of purpose and fulfillment.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I believe deeply that careers should be more than just a paycheck. They should be fulfilling, inspiring and aligned with our values. For too long, we've been told to prioritize stability and conformity. It's time to break free from those outdated narratives and redefine what success means for us. I'm passionate about empowering individuals to: - Build careers that ignite their passion and purpose. - Challenge the status quo and redefine leadership on your own terms. - Create a work life that is both fulfilling and sustainable (even as a leader).
