A very successful executive who worked a minimum of 80 hours a week wondered, "Is this was all there is?" With one on one work he redefined his priorities, developed a roadmap with short and long term goals, and began making changes that were more conducive to his desired work life balance. This was a long process, but he was much happier in the end.

After four years at home with her children, a client wanted to transition back into the work force. She was not willing to go back to the lifestyle she had before her family. We evaluated what she liked about her previous job, explored new business fields, positioned her for a part-time position and began the search. With extensive networking, she was able to secure a position that met her top priorities.

In just one year, a client faced extensive losses: his mother to cancer, his business partner from their budding firm, and his support network of friends when he moved two hours away. With a highly individualized program, he found closure on his losses, which gave him the space and mindset to leave his despair behind. With newly-identified priorities, he set the path to reach them, and succeeded in setting up a fulfilling life.
