I've had two sessions with Lynne and it's already been a very productive experience for me. It's been wonderful to have an expert guide help me along a new path... read more of career discovery.
I've been working with Christine Brooks from Ignite your Potential for some time now and it has truly been transformative. For many years I'd been a teacher and the thought... read more of moving in a new direction was exciting, but also terrifying. I knew that I needed a sounding board to help me make this change successfully. I was so lucky to find Christine! Immediately, I felt comfortable and at ease in her capable hands. She guided me through some thoughtful exercises to get to know me so that she could offer the most helpful support. With this knowledge in hand as well as information I gave her about my goals, hopes, and dreams, Christine began to help me understand my goals and strengths and then carefully guided me toward embracing them. Each conversation was rich, thoughtful, and productive. After each session, I tried to capture both the gist of our work as well as all the little treasures she'd given me along the way. Our conversations empowered me to make big changes. As a result of my work with Christine, I found the courage to leave teaching to pursue graduate work as well as consulting work. I may have gotten to this place without her guidance, but it certainly would have taken longer and would have been fraught with self-doubt and a lack of tools to handle that doubt. Christine will be your advocate in every way possible. Not only does she know her stuff and have great resources to share, she's approachable, kind, and dedicated to the work you do together. I'm so grateful to Christine and to Ignite your Potential for helping me pursue my dreams. It's been life changing for me. If you are at a crossroads in your life or simply want to dig deeper into your hopes and dreams for your future, I can't recommend Christine and Ignite your Potential enough. We all need support as we tackle new challenges and goals. We're capable of so much more than we tell ourselves and having someone like Christine to support and cheer you on will make all the difference.
It always feels great to see things in a different light and to be reminded that life is not only about downfalls or frustrations. It's about getting to know yourself... read more better, making course corrections, and having a positive affect on the people around you. As a person focused on her career, I had a habit of defining my worth through my work. Self worth was not something even thought about until I came to meet career coach Dr. Colleen Campbell. She brought me through a process where I learned more about myself and what drives and motivates me. It began to see things in a new way. While the work was focused on career, she really is a talented life coach as well. I didn’t expect to develop more balance in my life but that’s what happened. Sometimes, we just need to help ourselves and reach out to the right people who know exactly how to help others through exercises and new strategies to try. The professional approach that Dr. Campbell showed me, are tricks and tips I will always look back on, if I find myself lost in the challenges of work again. Thank you Dr. Campbell for being such an inspiration!
I thought I would never escape the sadness that enveloped me when my best friend died. We were like sisters; best friends from the time we were little girls. I... read more talked to other therapists to no avail. Then a friend told me about Dr. Campbell's blog, which I resonated with and was glad to discover she did phone sessions - as I live in NJ. As I understand, Dr Campbell's focus at this point is predominantly career coaching and career counseling which I'm sure she is an excellent help to these clients. But as I found, she is also a skilled life coach and helps people with grief counseling. The fact that she has a PhD in Clinical Psychology and a background in psychotherapy also eased my mind when I first reached out to her. She was compassionate, empathetic, and very supportive. We connected immediately. I felt she understood what I was saying before I did. Her suggestions and guidance saved me. I can't praise her enough. The fact that Dr. Campbell also blends in coaching had me feel there was movement to our work - that it wasn't going to go on forever. When you find the best counselor you are fortunate. Dr. Campbell is the best. She listens with her heart and has a unique ability to hone in on the solution you need.
Being a new manager can be a challenge especially when you don’t have a mentor. The various things I was facing were new to me, as it was the first... read more time I was holding a position between upper management and new reports. I was handling some aspects of it well but was concerned about my blindspots and began feeling anxious that I might be making mistakes. I began working with Dr Campbell and very quickly we were able to create goals and an action plan for managing my reports and managing up. It was great knowing that I had someone to talk and collaborate with and soon I began to feel I had a grip. After six sessions I feel confident that I’m making good choices and look forward to a good review coming up. It’s also cool that I know I can come in for follow up sessions whenever I need a supportive, strategic perspective. If you’re thinking about something like this, don’t hesitate to connect with Dr Campbell, she’s great.
Just a year ago, I began to want to make myself a "someone" in the niche that I have learned to love: Marketing and Industrial Research Development. It's a good... read more fit for me and I believed I could be an asset, whatever company I went to. What I didn't understand at the time was that holding a leadership role in the company I was in would end up putting me through fire and ice. Eventually, I began doubting myself, my capacity, and my self-worth. After receiving a complaint from some of the staff under me, and having a boss who seemed to look at me, not as an ally, but as a competition... I began to feel powerless. The passion I once had, became a burden and I struggled to go to work each day. I began doubting my decisions, my actions, and the inner sense I usually have. I thought I was a goner until I was referred by a friend to Dr. Campbell. She was my saving grace. At first, I was hesitant, to even have a free phone consultation with her, as I had never worked with a career coach or an executive coach before. But looking back, that was the best decision I was able to make while I was in the middle of my struggling mind and heart. Every career coaching session with her brought me back to myself. Each day became bearable. Slowly, I saw where I shouldn't be blaming myself. Session by session, I regained the professional confidence I always had in myself. Together we created a strategic action plan for going forward. She made me see that vulnerability is not a weakness, instead, it' when you are honest with yourself about where you need to improve that you begin to change. High potential growing leaders also feel helplessness and overwhelm at times, but that should not stop me from becoming better. Thank you so much, Dr. Campbell, for getting me back on track.
I had an absolutely fantastic experience with ignite your potential. It started with a consultation in which the owner (I believe) of the company assessed the type of help I... read more was looking for and paired me with an expert coach. In the process I also found an amazing resume coach through this service (Leslie Ayres) who helped me produce a beautiful and engaging resume and I began to work with Lynne Bernstein, an extremely skilled coach. I hadn't interviewed for a job in 16 years, so was looking for assistance with interview prep. She asked great questions that guided me towards the thinking and confidence building I needed most. And I got the job! I plan to continue working with Lynne to tap into her expertise in leadership development.
After having gone through an abusive relationship which brought me to the point that I thought and I felt I was nothing. Nothing in my life felt okay. Nothing was... read more going right. Rather than bad thoughts leaving me, instead, they kept on living in me. It seems that the heaviness in my heart kept getting deeper and deeper. Waking up each day seemed like a burden. Every day felt like tons of rocks on my chest, and that no matter how I tried to shift my mind, I would always just see the past. The arguments, the tears, the physical pain, the struggle, and the loss. None of these were things I wanted to recall, but the thoughts kept chasing me. After a while, I began to just stay away from people because I could think of little else. I started to lose appetite. Food seemed too hard to swallow and I never felt hungry. I wanted to just always stay in my room, sulk, stare at the window, sleep, and eventually cry. Crying was a hobby and the tears never ran out. Then one day, my daughter found me crying and convinced me to have myself checked because I already losing weight and getting pale. My daughter cried when I told her I can't. I wanted to refuse and stay home but then she convinced me that seeing Dr. Campbell, a life coach, may help rebuild what remains in our family, or perhaps in my life. Seeing Dr. Campbell was like a ray of hope that seemed to unburden my heavy emotions. She spoke with me, allowed me to express the thoughts that only went through in my head and made me see that the rocks that I felt on my chest can be taken off, one by one. She taught me how to see things in a different way. She taught me how to forgive myself for having forgotten how to love myself. She made me realize that my life is not just me and my thoughts and what I wanted to be removed. My life is how I take care of myself, my children, and our future. She taught me to yearn to better my self each day. She ignited the sense of trust in me. To trust myself again, and to trust the people in my life that I was not alone. She ignited self-love in me so that the heaviness I felt would slowly heal. Now, I am back on my feet, I am no longer pale and the darkness in my room is now filled with laughter from my kids and myself. Thanks to Dr. Campbell and her life coaching, she gave me not only a ray of light but also the ray of hope for my life. She and her team are indeed people who can create change and make lives better. All you have to do is let them in. Thank you so much Dr. Colleen Campbell for igniting life in me.
I can highly recommend Christine Brooks as a coach! She is extremely qualified and her approach is very structured.
Shannon was so helpful in guiding me to discover insights about myself and my career journey that I would not have found on my own. I have more direction now... read more and realize what I need in a career moving forward and why other paths have left me feeling empty.
I am so thankful for connecting with Lynn Bernstein as my career coach. At first I requested her help in preparing to interview for an executive level position. I loved... read more working with her so much, I asked if we could continue our coaching even after the recruitment process. She has helped me to better balance my work and home life and to find the space to do activities now that give me joy and fulfillment, and not wait for someday in retirement. She has also helped me identify those areas that I can improve so that I am a better listener, mentor and leader within our organization. I never thought of hiring a career coach before, but I am so glad I did. I highly recommend Lynn.
