CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Shayna is a wonderful coach to work with. She was able to quickly assess my career goals, needs and aspirations and work with me to put a plan in place that included identifying the types of companies to target, interview preparation, negotiating strategies and focused my resume to highlight all my career accomplishments, skills and strengths. Within a few months, I was able to find a wonderful opportunity that fully aligns with my career goals, work-life balance I was hoping for and the personal growth and creativity I seek in my professional life.

I write very few recommendation, and yet I am thrilled to endorse Shayna, and I encourage virtually anyone to engage with her. Why? Because she is truly a force of nature and showed me that I could benefit from coaching when I was perhaps the most cynical person out there. I was convinced that, not only did I not need coaching, but that the whole premise was hogwash. Shayna proved me wrong. Not only is she a delight of a personality, but I was humbled by how much she genuinely cared about my cause. Seriously. She was dedicated to moving me forward more than anyone I have ever met (including my friends!). She never balked at spending some extra (free) time to help me, and she was NEVER on auto-pilot, instead thinking deeply and analytically about my individual, unique needs. I'm almost surprised to say this, but I very much plan to go back to her every time I make a career transition, as her input was so impactful. Have I made my point yet? Basically, if you're a cynic and think you can't benefit from career coaching, take advantage of LinkedIn's 15-minutes of free advice and reach out to her. 15 minutes with her will show you what I mean!

"I had the pleasure of working with ShaynaLee through her Interview Prep program. Working with her has been one of the most transformative and important career decisions I've ever made. I highly recommend her Interview Prep program if you are looking for guidance on how to land your next dream job. Being fairly young in the Market Research space, I knew I needed help to make a major step-up to my next position. After weeks of searching I know ShaynaLee would be the best for the job after my consult with her. She immediately demonstrated her ability to help you think deeper about your motivations for your next move. As uncomfortable as it was, it proved to be a pivotal component to my job search.
My first conversation with her immediately fueled me to aim high and apply to a position at LinkedIn. Shayna masterfully coached me through my interview process. I felt prepared for each and every interview and always walked away thankful that I had worked with ShaynaLee prior to them. She pushes you to market yourself beyond the cookie cutter approach, while also being the best version of your authentic self. Beyond being a career coach, ShaynaLee was also the best cheerleader I had through the process. Making this career move was a major leap for me and I was nervous and doubtful at the start. ShaynaLee was not shy about offering words of encouragement to keep you on track and focused on your next move.
Thanks to ShaynaLee, I've gained more than a new position, but also a renewed sense of confidence in my skills and talents. Highly recommended to anyone looking to upgrade their careers!"

" I hired Shayna as an interview coach, had the interview three days later and was offered the job the following week. I had been through numerous interviews for different roles but was unsuccessful at landing any of those jobs. Shayna prepared me for the interview by teaching me to:
- listen for the underlying intent of questions
- organize my thoughts
- prepare appropriate examples
- respond succinctly with appropriate detail
Before our first meeting, she thoroughly researched the role, the company and my background to maximize the benefit of every session. I highly recommend Shayna for anyone who needs help preparing for an interview."

"From the initial phone call to our face-to-face meetings, Shayna and I connected right off the bat. I screened several career coaches before making the investment, and I am so glad I went with Shayna. With other career coaches, I came across some very expensive packages that didn't even include one-on-one meetings in person. With Shayna, she makes you feel like her biggest priority right from the start. Everything, from our in-person meeting locations to the type of guidance I needed, was completely catered to my individual needs. I enrolled in the Career Transition Program, namely because I was completely lost as to what I wanted to do next in my career. From our down-to-earth conversations, I ended up exploring options I know I would never have thought up on my own. She is an absolute pleasure to work with, and I honestly feel I could meet with her indefinitely and get so much value every single session. Her sense of humor also had me cracking up (especially the times I was at my worst!)"

"I hired ShaynaLee when I was really in need of some help planning out my next career move. I wanted to clarify my long term ambitions as well as enhance my LinkedIn profile and resume. The decision to hire ShaynaLee was based on that one sample session, which was a complete value for the small fee. During that session, I gained a lot of insight into her approach and overall attitude towards her work. Shayna’s style is the right blend of motivation and assertiveness which is very good for professionals that want to reevaluate their career goals and require motivation and accountability to do so. I enrolled in ShaynaLee's 4 month program and during this she has provided me with much needed coaching as I pursue my dreams and career goals. She helped me discover and clarify both my long term professional ambitions and my current passions and hobbies. Getting coached by Shaynalee inspired me to get focused in my job search. Once I was clear about my direction and enhanced my professional profile, I was equipped to move forward in the direction of my goals. As a result of my consistent effort in the career development process, I have already materialized one of my goals and just recently accepted a job offer with a great company in LA. I am only ½ way through my coaching program but I am confident that the resources and best practice strategies I have gained from coaching with Shayna is a key factor in the growth I am experiencing. I recommend any professional that is stuck, looking to grow in their career or wanting to explore new career opportunities to hire ShaynaLee. Even if you just start with booking a sample session, you will definitely get what you need from that time"

"Shayna is incredible. She employs an empathetic yet no-nonsense approach to helping you face your own demons and barriers to infinite possibilities. She helps you dig deeper to confront negative self talk and is equipped just as well to show you the tactics you need to connect with the people and positions you seek. I did a lot of searching before landing on Shayna and I'm happy I did because there was no comparison. Shayna has found a career perfectly suited to her and her coaching style was perfectly suited to me. Even more than new possibilities I have taken away from my experience invaluable nuggets of wisdom I found myself sharing with my own circle of friends and family. Nuggets you could never put a price on. Engaging with Shayna was an investment into not only my future but myself as an individual."

You can tell that she is personally invested in your success. I've always left my meetings with Shayna feeling more optimistic and confident in my abilities, and I highly recommend Shayna to anyone who is working through a career transition!"

"I started working with Shayna about 6 weeks ago. After thinking about hiring a career coach for a while, I saw Shayna's intro video on a group from LinkedIn. I had a really great feeling about her from that video but what really sealed the deal for me was her sample coaching session. I met with Shayna in person and in that time (over an hour), I knew exactly what coaching with Shayna would be like and what she is like as a person. We connected immediately and I knew I wanted to work with her. It wasn't just an introduction or a sales pitch about what she could do for me. She really took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for in a coach and in my career. If you're not sure if a career coach is the right thing for you, I highly recommend taking a sample session with Shayna to see how she works and how she will work with you. She is straight-forward and doesn't pull any punches and she really cares about her clients. Working with Shayna is the best decision I've made in regards to my career and I look forward to continuing my journey."

ShaynaLee played an instrumental role in directing me towards the right career path. I scheduled a 2.5 hour strategy session with Shayna about 2 months ago and can say with certainty that she was effective in every manner. It is clear that Shayna is really passionate about what she does and is committed to helping people towards the right direction. During our session, ShaynaLee helped me identify the problems with my job search and suggested different strategies. We touched based on topics such as finding one’s niche, networking and communication strategies, utilizing all online resources and finding the right job that best suits my character. Since my session with ShaynaLee, I have shifted my strategies on finding the right career. I used Shayna's suggestions moving forward with my search and have now found full-time employment doing what I love! Thanks, ShaynaLee!

"Shayna's coaching services have been a valuable asset to me for what feels like forever. At this point I don't know where I would be without her coaching and guidance. She has a "down to earth/people centric" approach which goes above and beyond coaching, and career counseling. When I was seeking a career transition, Shayna coached me through the ins and outs of the process; from soup to nuts. With each weekly session, my confidence grew and that enabled me to be more successful at interviews. I was offered my dream job over a year ago and I continue to thrive in that role. I highly recommend Shayna for anyone looking for coaching that truly wants to advance their life's goals! "

#YESIAMINC
A couple of years ago I was a starry-eyed new grad who was ready to take the world by storm with an entrepreneurial spirit and a new business concept. Then reality hit me in the face and my day job became my main focus while my dreams of business success as an entrepreneur seemed out of reach. Finally I was reaching a point in my career where I was no longer satisfied. A change was needed - It was time to elevate my business dreams into reality and accepting Shayna's offer to help me reach my goals was a pivotal point in my life. Shayna''s coaching process helped me face perceived "challenges" that were a hindrance to my success. Her straightforward approach and keen intuition helped me to tap into my deeper self, overcome my fears and bring my ultimate business goals to fruition. With Shayna’s coaching support, I laid out my next steps which soon turned into big leaps. Her feedback provided insightful approaches that not only inspired me, but ultimately impacted the timeliness of my success. In such a short period of time, I have officially launched my business #YESIAMINC from a mere concept into an empowerment branding company and now I have stepped into a new arena of purpose and satisfaction. Needless to say, I have a deep appreciation and gratitude for Shayna's gift of coaching. Her smart and caring guidance led me to realize my goals and push past my self-imposed limits!

"Working with Shayna has been a blessing. Her dedication as a coach has made a world of difference in all aspects of my life. Shayna's Career and transformational coaching services have provided me with the know-how, skills and confidence to pursue all my career goals without all the self -doubt . Not having changed positions within my company for almost 10 years, it was time for a change but I couldn't seem to muster up the courage to apply or interview for another position. After my sample session and starting weekly sessions, I was able to recognize the things that were holding me back . I have since been put on the path to my future thanks to Shayna, I suggest you allow her to do the same ! Highly Recommended!"
