Substantively, Joy has strong knowledge of a diverse set of tools for leadership development and is a highly skilled facilitator. Based on my expressed needs or needs that we identified together, Joy selected and facilitated various activities for me. Over the course of my five month coaching period, Joy had thoughtfully sequenced a set of activities that encouraged me to explore some of my more latent skills and interests and also provided me with opportunities for deeper introspection. Joy guided me through mindful meditation, physical movement, creative exploration, and nature activities. She listened actively and had a great sense of humor. She knew when to keep me focused and when to let me associate freely which was helpful during our phone conversations. She was present throughout our sessions, but also kept track of time which meant that the wrap up never felt rushed.

She is very organized, keeps tidy notes, and always has more than enough resources relevant for your needs.

On a personal level, Joy is an empathetic listener and has the natural ability to think of a person holistically. We talked about needs of the head, heart, body, etc. – all important factors when making a major life decision and I found this holistic perspective to be missing from other coaches.
