A career and life coach on a mission to help you find the confidence and clarity and create a life that you are excited about.
You might be here because:
I've navigated three significant career pivots—from finance to entrepreneurship to HR—two of them during economic downturns. Each time, I found fulfilling career by getting clear on my strengths and what I was passionate about. That kind of clarity is learnable, and I want to help you gain the same.
I hold a Master of Education in Adult Learning from UBC and a Career Coaching Practitioner certificate, and I'm currently pursuing my ICF credential. Before coaching, I spent eight years as an entrepreneur building an award winning fitness business, followed by five years in talent development, where I coached employees through career transitions, leadership growth, and professional development.
If you're at a crossroads and ready to think it through with support and structure, I'd welcome a conversation.
Get StartedTailored coaching for your unique journey
Navigate career transitions, advance in your current role, negotiate better compensation, or discover your ideal career path. I'll help you identify your strengths, clarify your goals, and create a strategic plan to achieve the career success you deserve.
Create a life aligned with your values and purpose. Whether you're seeking work-life balance, personal growth, or a more fulfilling lifestyle, I'll guide you in breaking through limiting beliefs and designing a life that brings you joy and meaning.
Struggling with anxiety, burnout, or difficult relationships at work or home? We'll work together to build practical strategies that help you manage stress, set healthy boundaries, and regain a sense of calm and control in your life.
Grounded in Hope-Action Theory, I help clients find their own answers through thoughtful questions and structured exploration—so they leave with a clear direction and confidence to act on it.
"I had the opportunity to work with Julia over several career coaching sessions during a time when I felt very uncertain about my career direction. I was facing challenges in a fairly new role, while also considering other job opportunities, and I wasn't sure which path would be best for me. Julia was incredibly approachable and genuinely took the time to understand my situation, my concerns, and what I hoped to achieve. The exercises and conversations we had helped me gain clarity on my priorities and what truly matters to me at this stage of my life. With her guidance, I was able to make more confident and informed decisions about my career. I would highly recommend Julia to anyone who is seeking clarity or navigating a career transition."

"I've only just discovered the severity of my recently-diagnosed ADHD, and how it was impacting my performance at work/everyday life. Julia really helped me discover resources, tools, strategies, and communities to cope, manage, and work with it. I honestly never imagined myself to be as productive as I am today - and everyone I work with merrily agrees to such attestation. Thank you a MILLION TIMES over, Julia!!"
Associate, Wealth Management
"Working with Julia was truly transformative. She helped me cut through the overwhelm, gain clarity, and step into my confidence as a leader. Julia has a rare ability to ask the right questions, challenge you thoughtfully, and support you in creating real, lasting change. I'm deeply grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a business coach who genuinely cares and delivers results."

Coaching is a personalized experience. Together, we'll determine the commitment, number of sessions, and duration that's right for you. Depending on where you are in your journey and what you need support with, a single session might be enough—or we might work together over several months to help you reach your vision.
Sometimes you just need a thought partner. Whether you're preparing for a difficult conversation, weighing a decision, or working through a specific challenge, a one-off session can provide the clarity and confidence you need to move forward.
You have a clear objective—a career transition, a promotion, a raise, or finding work that actually fits your life. Over three to six months, we'll work together to define your path, overcome obstacles, and take meaningful action toward that goal. This package is ideal if you know what you want but aren't sure how to get there.
This is deep work. If you're ready to fundamentally shift how you approach your career—and your life—this longer engagement gives us the time and space to explore what's holding you back, reconnect with what matters most, and build lasting change. For those seeking more than a job change: a new way of thinking.
