“Layoffs will come for us all sooner or later, and you should be so lucky to have someone like Shawn at the ready to help you navigate the aftermath. I was at the same firm for 15 years and found myself out on the street, having not given much thought to marketing myself for years. Shawn is a highly skilled talent coach who was able to help me navigate it all. As a coach, Shawn's guidance has proven instrumental in fostering my professional development and marketability. I wholeheartedly recommend Shawn to anyone in need of his exceptional skillset, or organization looking for a people and talent expert and coach who can elevate their output.”

“Working with Shawn was a fantastic experience. He is passionate about helping others and is encouraging and uplifting during every interaction. I met Shawn at a time of uncertainty when I was laid off from my previous employer. I was skeptical about working with a coach at first, but I must say that working with Shawn was an invaluable experience! He recommended strategies that helped improve my LinkedIn profile which ultimately landed me a role with LinkedIn. Talk about a full circle! He prepared me for my interactions with recruiters and hiring managers, and we also discussed the art of salary negotiations. I encourage anyone who is looking to transition into a new role or career to set up some time to meet with Shawn. You will certainly apply with confidence after meeting with him.

“I had the pleasure of working with Shawn during one of the most difficult periods of my life when faced with transitioning jobs after an unexpected layoff. Prior to meeting with him, I was lost and dealing with all the emotions that occur in the aftermath of a layoff. Once I met Shawn, those hopeless feelings turned into true hope and excitement for future potential opportunities. I truly appreciated his guidance and genuine personable support during this time. Shawn took the time to listen to my concerns and followed up with direct feedback to help me maneuver through this challenging job search. I cannot thank him enough for his unwavering commitment to get me to the other side of this journey. I highly recommend Shawn if you need someone who will go above and beyond to ensure you are empowered with the tools you need to become successful. He exemplifies all of the characteristics of one of the best life coaches I have been blessed to work with.”

—JESSE, CLINICAL RESEARCH MANAGER | PHARMA

“I had a great experience working with Shawn. He did a great job answering my various questions and thoughts about how to navigate the job market after a layoff. To be honest, I initially wasn't quite sure what to expect from a career coach- I thought it would be going over my resume and perhaps mock interview questions or something like that. Shawn of course gave me some resume tips and such, but what I found the most valuable was the genuine conversations we had. He helped guide me through the various career search questions that I had, gave me an overview of the hiring process structure, and helped me navigate the job offer stages. I would highly recommend Shawn.”
