I retained Julie's services for my daughter with regards to helping her pick a college major that…read morewould fit her personality and long term objectives. My daughter enjoyed working with Julie very much.

So, I originally wrote this review almost four months ago. Julie LaCroix saw the review and…read moreresponded to it. However, did she do anything to make sure she answered the main element of the complaint (that she won't stop spamming me in spite of numerous requests over the years - including those apparently only decorative "unsubscribe" links in her emails?). No. Screen shot for proof. Draw what conclusions you will. Original Review and Comment on Response: I had two appointments with Julie LaCroix several years ago. I ultimately thought the sessions were a waste of time and (quite a lot of) money. She decided my skill set made me a particularly good fit for a specific type of job, and she disregarded my repeated protests that the job in question went against my moral values. She made up her mind and was incapable of hearing anything that didn't align with her first (somewhat arbitrary seeming) idea. She ended our last session by throwing together a ridiculous, typo-ridden resume in a couple minutes targeted at a position I had made clear I would not apply for. (Since that time I finished my graduate degree and am working in a suitable career.) After our second meeting, I was ready to move on and not give career therapists another thought. I have not had that luxury, however, since Julie LaCroix has spammed me and stalked me on social media ever since. Every couple years, I get re-added to her email list which I have never given her permission to put me on, and she has not responded to messages asking her to desist. She also periodically tries to connect with me on social media (she is undeterred by my refusal to connect with her, and, again, does not respond to messages asking her to desist in contacting me). I understand that she thinks networking will help grow her business. I don't understand why she thinks harassing people and ignoring them when they object would be beneficial to anyone. Given her systematic abuse of my personal information, however, I am no longer surprised that she could not process my objection to an unethical career. **Regarding Response** Notice the non-denial regarding the abusive email practices I describe. Also note the absence of a statement that she would address this matter and make sure I am not re-added to her list again in the future. The rest is a matter of he-said-she-said, but why, after 11 years, would I have reason to think of her--much less make random false claims in a review? I would encourage her to check her email (julie@julielacroix.com) to see that I have, in fact, contacted her multiple time over the past 11 years to ask that she stop re-adding me to her spam list. She has also found me years after using her (dis)services and tried to get me to engage with her professional profiles on Facebook and Instagram over the years. The dishonesty/lack of integrity in her response here is appalling.

I have been working with Mara at Ignite Your Potential for maybe 6 months now and I can't say…read moreenough good things about her. I went to her for career guidance as I was at a major turning point in my life and unsure of what direction to head. She helped me find that direction by helping me identify what I really wanted and valued, what my possible paths were and additionally how my strengths fit into that equation. Mara felt like a trusted friend who guided me through a process of self-discovery and reflected back to me the strengths she saw in me. I think most importantly, she helped me wade through the uncertainty and feelings of feeling lost in my career direction. Career paths just felt like a cloud of confusion and having no idea what I wanted to do. She made me feel like we could navigate it and find direction, and we did. Additionally, I was going through some major difficulties in my personal life and while I've never been to keen on the idea of a life coach, I found her additional expertise in that area extremely beneficial. She always made sure to make it clear that it was up to me how we used our sessions; we could solely focus on the career path but I often chose to use our sessions tapping into her life coach skills as they proved extremely helpful during a very difficult time in my life. I highly recommend her as both a career and life coach!

Very easily put, Mara is amazing. I sought out for her help…read morewhen I didn't know which path I wanted to go down. I was confused and struggled with how I was suppose to get from where I was (confused, college graduate, working retail, and no idea what I was doing or wanted to do) to having things figured out. I have worked with her for over a year now, and have never felt more professionally sure about my choices. We really started from the basics - finding out my likes, dislikes, and most importantly what I want most from my career, which personally was helping others. We made lists, pros and cons, spreadsheets, everything you can imagine to put into perspective the different career options and their roles. Mara helped me in so many ways than just finding my dream career. I will forever be thankful to her. She is so patient, kind, and just a wonderful person to know and work with. I'm very grateful.

Working with Teresa was a real game-changer. I needed someone who could provide action-able…read moreresources and tools that could help me make a fairly major career pivot. I didn't know where to start, but I noticed that so many of Teresa's reviews had REAL results, like folks actually landing a new career after their time with her. Thankfully, I'm happy to report the same -- and wouldn't be able to say that without her. The Career Clarity Course is a great way to get your wheels turning on possible career changes, and it offers tons of great questions and quizzes to help open your mind to career paths you wouldn't have before. And when combined with in-person sessions with Teresa, it's an incredibly helpful set of tools, since she provides a ton of great, real-time feedback and support that's flexible to your situation. Basically, if you're on the fence like I was, just make the smart move and invest in Teresa's course. You definitely won't regret it!

As I tried to navigate up-leveling my career at my current job, Meike's support helped me stay grounded, and ultimately, I earned a promotion. If you're looking to elevate your work, interviewing skills, and confidence, I can't recommend Shinebright Career Coaching enough. Working with Meike was truly a game-changer.

Hi Juliet- I just…read morewanted to thank you again for all your hard work, understanding, and helpful advice that you have blessed me with during our time working together. I landed a position with one of the city government roles I was targeting here in Orange county! This role has been a great fit for me, and I enjoy and respect the other people I work with, and the people in the community that we serve. I had several offers after our work together and ultimately decided this one was the best fit for me. The work you did with my personality profile, career goals, and resume was extremely helpful and definitely had a lot to do with the number of offers I received. I also performed very well in my interviews not just because of my experience in this field but also because of practicing the questions and hypotheticals we went over together. You are a master of your craft and I will not hesitate to mention you if I have any other contacts who are looking for resume and or career coach professionals with your skill set. Thank you again for everything!

That's when I decided to seek help and was soon recommended to Juliet. Juliet was incredibly helpful, working with me each week to ensure my resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letters were in top shape. She even pointed out things I hadn't considered including on my resume that turned out to be valuable. When it came to interviews, Juliet walked me through the most common questions, offering constructive critiques on what I should and shouldn't say for each one. Her advice was super informative and helped me feel far more confident than before heading into interviews. I really appreciated how she pushed me out of my comfort zone, and noticed how her help made me stand out more to employers. Many of them even complimented how well-written my resume was! I'm super happy to say that I accepted my first job out of college a couple of months ago, and can't thank Juliet enough for her guidance and great advice!

By far, her resume rewrite and overhaul helped springboard my job search. To anyone who has not looked for work since before the pandemic, job hunting has changed! As a former recruiter, Sara is on top of all trends and provides sound advice and suggestions, backed by current metrics. She is an expert in personal branding and helping you stand out from the crowd. This is achieved through her LinkedIn optimization and Total Interview Program (TIP). Sara showed me how to customize each resume for job applications, quickly and efficiently. The group TIP coaching calls were also beneficial, to network with other job seekers and provide support for one another. Having an expert I could reach out to with questions (and there were many) was key -- this gave me confidence and focus with many of the action steps I did (or didn't) take. Sara makes herself very available, by phone, email and text! Most importantly, Sara helped me regain trust and confidence in myself after an abrupt layoff, the first of my career.

As I never had a business coach before, I wasn't sure what to expect. Karin is very straightforward, caring & really lasers in on what is needed.
