Client Success
My clients land jobs.
Hear what they have to say.
The market is booming.
The investment you make in yourself pays off in spades for years to come.

I hired Chelle as a career coach, and she introduced me to the mental fitness change through Positive Intelligence (PQ). I had left a 30-year career to begin my second act in a human resources role but was lacking the needed tools to enter the challenging job market.
Chelle helped me with career clarity and build my confidence. Next week I will start my dream job with a 25% pay increase. I am grateful to Chelle for helping strengthen my PQ, her guidance, meeting some amazing people through her network, and reaching my career goals.

I was part of an 8 week Positive Intelligence program that Chelle led. She is great at facilitating conversations and asking the right questions. When I started the program, I was feeling anxious and unsure about my job search.
But over the weeks, with the help of Chelle and the entire group of women, I was able to make much progress and learn to tame negative thoughts. I found Chelle to be an excellent leader, a clear communicator and a community leader in the true sense.

Chelle is an energetic, friendly and matter-of-fact person who is dedicated to helping others see the potential in themselves.
Every exercise Chelle puts you through will have you being more thoughtful and introspective than you could imagine you were capable. Working with Chelle has brought me a newfound confidence in my work. If you're looking for a coach, look no further!

I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity of working with Chelle during a transformative time in my career. Our conversations as well as participation in her Positive Intelligence program allowed me to take meaningful action in the pursuit of a new role. She helped me get my confidence back.
Chelle is passionate about helping people achieve their goals. I highly recommend her Positive Intelligence program as well as her coaching. I have appreciated her immensely through my recent transition.

Chelle is a rare and special breed of human and coach. I found her to be especially skillful in the area of career coaching with the specialty of an executive job search. She is a grand connector, mentor, and cheerleader. Her knowledge of talent acquisition best practices is exceptional. This expertise gives her unique insight in how her clients can best succeed. This creates an organic framework based on the client’s goals infused with Chelle’s experience of what potential employers are seeking. The result is a strategy where both parties, (job seeker and employer), successfully meet for a win-win.
However, Chelle’s value exceeds that of an exceptional career coach. Chelle has a deep awareness of the metaphysical and the difficult-to-describe forces that guide our personal decisions about how to best succeed in life. This includes the ability to help her clients stay grounded, balanced, engaged, and committed without burning out.
I found Chelle to be one of my most influential teachers; someone who helped me stay centered, vibrant, and alive with the belief of future success. She helped me realize that success. She is a master of alignment between aspiration and realization; a connector of the inner self and the professional self. She also helped me realize they are one in the same.
I am truly grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Chelle during the most pivotal professional transition of my career.

After the roller coaster ride of 2020, I was ready for a 'reset' in 2021. Chelle was instrumental in making it happen. With Chelle I was able to come up with my 'reset' goals:
-
Increasing clarity and confidence
-
Focus on Mental Fitness and Positive Intelligence
-
Overcoming Burnout
-
Imposter Syndrome and tools to overcome it
It looks like a big overwhelming list, but Chelle helped me break it down to make small incremental changes with the Positive Intelligence (PQ) program and coaching.
Chelle has the special touch! With Chelle's coaching, I'm back to having a spring in my step and excited for each new day. I've dramatically decreased 2nd guessing myself, increased my positivity, and feel less stressed.

After using a national career counseling service that was ineffective, I switched to Chelle and found the right fit.
Chelle helped me understand the clear way to land a great job-- keep searching for a company's pain points and/or growth points. I was looking at jobs both in and out of my previous industry, and with Chelle's help I was able to identify several pain and growth points in two different industries. This is what landed me two offers in the same week! Chelle encouraged me to use all methods of communication- sometimes email works, but a good old-fashioned phone call works wonders. People crave connection. I'm thrilled in the new direction this next chapter in my life will take me.
Chelle provides a comprehensive and unique game plan just for you. No cookie-cutter-one-size-fits-all with Chelle. She listens intently to your goals, strengths, passions, and fears to help you understand yourself better, which also helps you find your ideal job. A constant encourager, she is prompt in returning calls and is incredibly accessible.
Her resume writing is truly amazing; I received many compliments on my resume while interviewing. From resume writing to job acceptance-- she is the whole package. My one regret is that I did not find her earlier in my search. It is absolutely money well spent.

"Know your worth, and add 10%." This is the advice from one of my very successful clients, Charles Sullivan, who just landed a new role with a collaborative, flexible, and entrepreneurial organization.
He almost DOUBLED his pay!
Margaret Ayers
I originally set out searching for someone to help me with my resume when I found Chelle. At the time, I wasn’t totally sure what I needed but I knew I was looking for a change. Upon meeting Chelle, I felt an instant connection. I signed up for a resume refresh as well as career coaching.
The honest truth is working with Chelle is one of the best investments I have made in myself, professionally. Chelle helped me develop a super clear vision of what I wanted in my career, which has given me so much confidence. She also helped me totally revamp my resume and it now actually reflects the work I did and my professional accomplishments.
It’s clear that Chelle genuinely cares about the people she works with and she was incredible at helping me find myself. I am sure that the skills I’ve gained in resume writing and the focus I have in what I want out of my career will serve me well for many years to come. Chelle is absolutely the kind of person you want in your corner.

I had the pleasure of working with Chelle Johnson for pre-interview preparation. She is an exceptional mentor and expert in her craft. Her unique coaching style and her honest, unbiased feedback.
If you’re seeking to hire a career coach who delivers personalized tips to master the art of interviewing, with the innate ability to connect seamlessly with her clients, Chelle is that person.
Ambarish Mehrotra
Before working with Chelle, I really needed to get clarity on my career, to contemplate and discover where my true self would flourish in. I fortunately met Chelle and discovered that we had worked at the same company although not at the same time. We respected a lot of the same people and we clicked immediately.
While working with Chelle, I found an unwavering ally, an unrelenting partner in my quest.
Chelle has an innate sense of the unity of the universe, she sees the bigger picture and is passionate about my career in a manner that brings energy to me and belief in my quest.
Chelle’s resume writing ability is great because she knows how to say a lot in a few words. She gets networking and the essentials of building a career, she also gets human fallibility and has the patience and humility to get into your shoes and help. She genuinely cares!
As a result of having Chelle as my career coach I am in a better place than I was and am distinctly better off because I found a friend.
