This is not the journey that I thought I would be on. When I graduated school and began my career in the media field nearly 7 years ago, I did not know what to expect. Quickly, I saw myself getting opportunities I never knew were possible, working for the likes of the Denver Broncos, CBS, and Google. These professional stops honed my skills in data visualization, crafting insights, and storytelling through data; but through these experiences, I developed my sense of self. I discovered my life purpose, empowering success for the people around me. This work is rewarding, and I found myself more energized than I was before. I started nurturing this passion by getting involved in various employee resource groups and took it a step further by creating one as well. For a long time, I thought getting a job at Google was my end goal, but once I made it, I realized I wasn’t being truly authentic. After years of volunteering part of my full time to these initiatives, I knew I was ready to make the transition into a new chapter of my story. 
I scoured the internet to find careers that would enable me to make an impact on the lives of the people around me. This led me down the path of becoming a coach. Fast forward to now, I am a certified coach and graduate from the iPEC Coaching School. In my time coaching, I’ve already seen success among my clients such as: improvements in their personal and professional relationships, developments within their careers and industries, and enhancements in their overall well-being.

Redefining What a Boss is:

In the traditional sense a boss is often thought of in a professional sense as a leader, manager or supervisor to who you accomplish defined tasks for a broader organizational goal. At FutureBoss, a Boss, is defined by the degree of autonomy that one has to create the desired results for themselves and those around them.

FutureBoss coaching helped me see different outlooks on situations which led me to new ways to approach them. I appreciated that Joe empowered me to think though things rather then just telling me what to do. We were able to have open conversations that led to creative problem solving because not every situation is linear. I found it so helpful!

In late 2023, I found myself shaken from a tough work experience and without employment. After my career intensive session with Joe, I knew I would be in for a serious transformation. Through his guidance, I gained clarity on my future direction and not only developed a game plan, but SUCCEEDED in my game plan getting a new job and successful salary negotiations. If you're feeling stuck, his career intensive program not only helps you create a plan to reach your goals but also ensures you stay accountable. Thank you Joe for all you do!

Last year I experienced major changes in both my personal and professional life. I lost sight of my goals and general direction, then I met Joe. Coaching has truly changed my life and revolutionized the way that I view success. Joe helps you understand yourself and works with you to develop detailed action plans that you can easily stick to. I received the promotion that I wanted and made huge strides in my personal goals surrounding finances and health thanks to Joe. He has truly changed my life for the better!

Coaching vs Other Offerings

Coaching, therapy, consulting and mentoring all share a common goal – To help client’s get to where they want to be. How this is done is where there are key differences. Therapy focuses on the past to help clients heal and bring them to a functional state in their present; While coaching, consulting, and mentoring may use past experiences, but the primary focus is on strategies in the present to improve the future. Coaching differs from mentoring and consulting because we recognize that the client has the ability and is the subject matter expert in their own experiences to improve their own future, yet may have something internal or external blocking it. Coaching helps create sustainable change within clients in order for them to self sufficiently improve areas of life that they define as needed.
