Past Participant Testimonials
“Session 2 of this course made me realize that my value system has been forced to shift since getting Long COVID. It’s astounding to me that something so fundamental would change due to chronic illness. I wouldn’t have thought about any of this without Stephanie’s thoughtfully facilitated exercises.”
– Bobby, Course Participant
“The exercises in the course helped me identify projects that drain my energy and limit what I can provide to my work team. With this knowledge, I can now work with my supervisor to prioritize projects where my energy and expertise are best utilized for the benefit of both the company and my health.”
– Lynn, course participant
“This workshop is incredibly valuable and practical. Stephanie fosters a safe, validating, and encouraging space to explore your values and offers practical tools for communicating needs in the workplace. I highly recommend this workshop for anyone navigating life changes and looking to take their power back, especially while experiencing chronic illness.”
– Chrissy, course participant
About Stephanie
Diagnosed with Long Covid & ME/CFS in 2022, I eventually stepped away from my role as Director of Systems Integration and Operations in an institute within a major academic medical center in 2023. Finding the balance between professional engagement through coaching, parenting three children, and managing the many doctors appointments is a delicate art, a balancing act that requires discipline and focus on what really matters.
Coaching helps you sift through the noise and find your center of balance in the chaotic world of navigating new limitations. You are capable, strong, and resilient. Your voice matters, even if you only have the energy one hour a day or one hour a week to use it.
How are you finding your voice in the midst of new limitations?
