I cannot recommend this program strongly enough! Shannon helps you be what you want to be. I am the…read moresame person I was before her program - yet simultaneously completely different. I had been on an exhaustive 10-year career search, looking for a position that fit others' expectations of where I should be next . . . Not realizing that the career I was already making for myself, was most closely aligned with my values, beliefs, and desire to live a balanced, yet well-paid life that puts my happiness, and presence for my children first. (As Shannon put it, I am like Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz - in that I didn't need to "look any further than my own back yard.") I wanted clarity over the future direction of my career, and to get to where I want to be. This goal was met due to the expert advice of Shannon. My product and brand has been strengthened, and I am much more mindful and intentional about the career decisions I make. Shannon listens, then reminds you what you said is important to YOU, rather than fit you into a cookie-cutter program. I wholeheartedly recommend the Whole U. process.

Her capacity to hear what was needed in my business influenced my actions toward incredible results.

She is very knowledgeable in helping a business owner or team with organizational strategies, and ideas to help grow business. As I got more and more comfortable with speaking on the phone with her each week she even became like a therapist for me in particular, and would listen to my personal issues as well as my business issues and was always willing to offer advice. Please if you are on the fence about coaching, give Liz a chance. You will not be disappointed.

In a time of turmoil, in my personal life and in our country and the world in general, Julie Ann…read morehas been able to put into words what my heart has been feeling. The insight she offers helps me recognize and appreciate the power and wonder of action as well as inaction. I loved the Pleasure and Ease Retreat Julie Ann facilitated in December. I had been skeptical about an online retreat, but it was such a refreshing experience... at the end of it I felt more alive and in control of my Self than I had in months. The Creating a New World course has helped me give myself permission and power to get through this pandemic, while giving me a real community to experience it all with. Since collaborating with Julie Ann I have learned to listen to parts of myself that I hadn't really realized were speaking. I highly recommend embracing any opportunity to interact with Julie Ann, whether in her classes, retreats, or individual sessions. I am definitely looking forward to exploring more with her.

I did just one intake session with Julie Ann so far, and cannot wait for more. She held me with…read moresuch attention, care and understanding that I could feel it throughout my body. Julie Ann's presence is magical and created ease in my body in under an hour on the phone. Her way of understanding doubt and shame and judgment was a powerful balm. I'm still feeling the resonance of it and am really grateful. Thank you.
