Starting a career in a new field with zero experience is one of the most stressful experiences I've…read morehad. While, I was certain I had the skills, most employers overlook resumes of applicants such as myself who don't have "x years of experience" in a given position. I fancy myself a talented writer and have always thought myself a solid resume writerI started like most people do, revising my resume to the best of my ability using resource sites I found online with sample resumes. There are MANY suggestions, but I found there really is no definitive consensus for what is going to catch an employers eye. Ignoring the warnings, I pushed forward submitting the resume I wrote in hopes of landing a job that will get me the position I need to build a successful resume. The response to my self-written resume was dissappointing to say the least. With flexibility in my personal life, I submitted resumes to at least 15 different companies in 3 cities and received ZERO responses. Not even one. That's extraordinarily discouraging for someone who feels they just need to get into the room to land just a temp or contract position. I was brought close to tears at the thought of some of the reports I read of people finding introductory level positions in my field after 1-2 years. I was unable and unwilling to wait that long so I had to change something. I couldn't get my foot in the door so I needed a resume expert. I did quite a bit of research on which company wrote the best resumes. I considered top google results, but they had, almost universally, one complaint: the writing seemed outsourced. I almost pulled the trigger on a particular option that seemed "good enough" before, while yelping, I discovered Career Magic. I liked the idea of supporting someone local. There's an added measure of confidence seeing that Tracy is based in the United States, that she brings legitimate qualifications to the table and that she offers a personalized experience. I took the plunge, shot here [Tracy] an email to get suggestions on how to move forward with the resume I had already written. She suggested we give editing by email (the entry level job seeker level) a shot, so I purchased this package and we got to work. Yes, there is some small work required on your part such as sending her sample job postings and answering questions, but this is MINIMAL compared to the benefits her work provides. After 3 or so days, I received the first draft and was blown away by the changes she had already made. My resume had entirely new formatting complete with revised sections and a comprehensive list of my own qualifications which we worked through together. We emailed back and forth several times before the final draft was completed, making changes to various items until we had a satisfactory final product. I finally got my tears, in the form of sheer joy of looking at what she had produced and the potential it might bring. In addition to my resume, I also had her compose a cover letter for a particular position that interested me which was PERFECT and thoroughly researched by Tracy. Perhaps, most importantly, she attached a .pdf called "Filling the Pipeline" which I followed to a "T." The results were darn near miraculous. I applied for 8 jobs over a 7-day period and received responses from SEVEN of the eight employers including one that I thought was the perfect position for my career. The end result was, I turned down two positions based on red flags and landed what essentially amounts to a dream entry-level position with potential for advancement. The best part? It wasn't contract, it wasn't temp to hire, it was a full time position with a very thorough interview process. It was, the most amazing feeling after going through a job-hunt roller coaster before I found Tracy. I don't write many reviews because, quite frankly, my opinion of things don't get swayed severely enough one way or the other. But this is different. This is your career and your future. If you want THAT job. Even if you just need A job. If you are stuck in a rut in your current position. No matter what field you are in or are looking to get into, I suggest you use Tracy's services. Not for her benefit, but for your own. Best of luck with your job search!

I just completed Katie's "Delivering Fearless Feedback" course, a 3-day (spanned over three weeks)…read morevirtual course. Why didn't I take it sooner? From start to finish, the experience was five stars. Katie personally reached out to follow-up with me before starting the course (after hearing from my manager I had some interest... thank you! I needed that!), my materials arrived on time, the online portal clearly outlined our three week session; our group size was intimate enough for everyone to actively participate. Katie's methods are authentic and truly come from a place of compassion and professionalism. It speaks to my own values as a person and manager. She has so many great talking points and nuggets of information. (I wish Katie could live in my ear!) But alas, that's impossible, so I'll need to continue to refresh myself on the materials (so grateful for the recordings), and stay in touch with via her newsletter and LinkedIn posts.

I've better understood how to elevate my team and myself. The biggest takeaway for me as a strengths-based leader was that I can center my teams strengths while never sacrificing the ability to build an amazing feedback model. Beyond the class, Katie has helped me elevate myself and overcome my imposter syndrome by giving me real tools that I can use every day. She is a great coach, who cares deeply and she shows it every day. Feedback isn't just a gift, it's a foundation to building a psychologically safe environment that fuels highly effective teams. I highly recommend Katie's services. I wouldn't be the amazing professional I am today without her.

No matter where they come from, I help women bridge the gap between the dreams in the mind and the results they are creating in the world. ​ How? Through mindfulness.

Together, we work to loving look at and clear up subconscious limiting beliefs that are no longer serving you, upgrade your energy, refresh your habits and create new desired results. ​ This is about having your own back, trusting the desires placed on your heart and building the resiliency to bounce back from life's challenges, surprises and detours. ​ Ready for new results?
