I signed up for Jodi's Career Empowerment Package at a messy moment. I was starting a tenure-track faculty position, trying to grow my own perinatal education business on the side, and still holding on to two roles I'd outgrown but couldn't let go of. I figured three sessions would be a start.

Three sessions was not a start. Three sessions was the whole turn.

Jodi had me ask what each commitment was actually worth to me, emotionally, professionally, and financially, against where I want to be in five years. Before session two, I resigned from a consulting role I'd agonized over for months. By session three, I had a graceful exit plan for another program, a strategy for my business, and a documentation system for my faculty review. She never told me what to choose. She made it possible to finally choose.

I've signed on for more coaching with Jodi, but three sessions bought me clarity, two clean exits, and a plan, and that alone was worth it.
