About Me…
Welcome, if you're new here! I'm Renee, and I officially left 10+ years of BigCo innovation consulting and market research to focus on coaching two years ago - here's a bit of the story.
A few years before leaving, I had been leading a practice area and developing a team of colleagues in market research competencies. I stumbled upon an adult development-backed principle: if I told my colleagues what to do, it was often met with defensiveness and resistance, but if I asked questions and gave them space to reflect on their own development, the 1:1s were much more productive. When reviewing their work product, I found that if I asked, "what would you improve?" they identified 90%+ of what I would have pointed out, had ideas for things I didn’t notice, and their dignity was intact. This approach seemed magical, and I wanted to pursue it with more focus.
As a coach, I believe that the brilliant people I get to work with are creative, resourceful and whole. My favorite part is tagging along for their journey and seeing new growth, progress and perspective shifts.
In my personal life, being coached has helped me make tremendous progress in my health, nervous system regulation, parenting, marriage and pursuing adventure. One outcome I was coached on a few years ago was dreaming of moving to Colorado, maybe after my daughter graduated from high school. Well, with lots of coaching and a bunch of things that were nothing less than miracles falling into place, we moved to Colorado in 2021, more than 8 years ahead of what I had dared to initially dream!
