Annie Nogg

Booked an interview coaching session. Appreciate Annie's responsiveness so I could get in a session 1 week before I had a last-round interview. The pre-assessment homework was helpful for me to take ownership of my interview process and needs. Overall, her feedback and mock interview was definitely work the cost! I was able to pinpoint where I needed more practice and formulate a great "tell me about yourself" introduction.

Annie gave me the space to instantly feel comfortable being vulnerable, open, and honest during the entire coaching process. I entered our first session completely unmotivated and burnt out from my current job. She helped me navigate while at a crossroads, and leave feeling confident with next steps in my career path. I'm finally excited about the opportunities in front of me! You can tell Annie really cares about this work, and I'm grateful to have found her!

It's been a great pleasure working with Annie throughout the process. Her guidance and tools were helpful for me to figure out the possible options and next steps.

Annie used creative techniques to shift my perspective and allow me to be more comfortable and authentic during interviews. I landed a job and received an offer just three days after our coaching session.

Working with Annie was awesome! She's a great listener and was super receptive to what I wanted to focus on in our sessions. Annie comes at everything from such a positive and productive angle, and seamlessly transitions between specific advice and high-level guidance.

This was my first time ever working with a coach and Annie was fantastic. She was thoughtful, a good listener, and really helped me dig out of my "rut." I hope to take away several of the lessons Annie shared with me throughout my working (and personal!) life.

Overall, Annie was very nice, but I didn't think she used the time efficiently—which was frustrating given how much the session cost. There was a pretty slow pace, and a lot of time-consuming exercises (including a meditation, and an exercise that included reducing a list of 50 words to 5. I did that by myself while Annie sat on camera, waiting.) She also used part of the session time to schedule another session, and then she tried to end the session early. That was really disappointing and left me feeling pretty deflated about the whole experience; I canceled the follow-up session I'd scheduled. Also, I think it's worth noting that I shared this feedback with both The Muse (emailing with someone named Eloise who said she runs Coach Connect) and with Annie, and neither was willing to offer a refund. Eloise said it sounded like Annie simply wasn't a fit (but did not address Annie using session time for her own gain and then trying to end early), and Annie said she doesn't offer refunds for completed sessions. So just a heads-up to anyone booking with Annie/The Muse that the customer service seemed pretty poor. If you prefer to support companies that stand by the quality of their work, and also care about the customer experience, I would not recommend The Muse's Coach Connect.

Annie is a wonderful coach! I was in need of a new direction with my career and she absolutely delivered. Not only was she responsive and understanding, she gave me a much needed confidence boost. It was such a pleasure working with her, I would definitely recommend Annie for career coaching services.

I am so happy I made the decision to sign up with Annie. She is super approachable and has this warmth to her that makes you feel very comfortable right from the beginning. Annie asks the right questions which make you dig deep and really reflect on yourself. The homework she gives takes time, but you get out of it what you put into it. Annie was super flexible to work with; we started off on one path and I asked her to switch directions and she was more than accommodating. I would recommend Annie to anyone!

Annie was great to work with. She was easy to talk to and I liked the approach she took to help me identify some areas that I had not previously considered. She followed up with some action items based on our conversation, which were extremely helpful.

I have been stuck in a rut for a long time. Annie’s coaching was the thing I knew I needed but had a hard time finding. I needed a career coach to help me get to the next career move. Through the exercises we went through in the sessions, she opened my mind to possibilities I did not even know existed. I am grateful to Annie because I came out of our sessions with more confidence to stop thinking small and go after what I desire. Thank you Annie!

Annie was a pleasure to chat with, as she was very instrumental in helping me shape my career strategies and goals. She gave excellent advice, resume suggestions, and helped me verbalize my values as it relates to my career. Would absolutely recommend her.

Annie was great to work with and extremely helpful.

After ten years with the same organization, it was hard to picture myself in a different role. Working with Annie helped me reconnect with ambitions, interests, and priorities that I'd been neglecting for some time. She's a wonderful coach to work with--kind, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and organized. I would recommend this package to anyone who needs a nudge to start taking action towards finding a new career. I hope I get to work with her again!

Annie was great at efficiently identifying opportunities and crafting strategies to overcome them. Her personality quickly put me at ease and more confident in my interviewing abilities.

My experience with Annie was wonderful. She approached my issues in a completely different way than I had on my own for some time. I was unhappy in my career and had a desire to shift industries completely, but did not have a clear sense of what I wanted to do. Annie helped me identify career paths that align to my core values and map out tangible steps for how to make the shift a reality. She offered thoughtful prompts and observations that helped me come to my own conclusions. I highly recommend Annie for anyone who feels “stuck” in an unfulfilling career. Her methods are impactful and she was a pleasure to work with.

Annie made me feel comfortable with her and got settled in quickly. I seek out a coach to help me review on where I am in my career and what I should do next to progress in it. Her approach taught me how to revisit this based on my personal values and knowing how to dream again. I tend to take a pragmatic approach so this helps me to look at it from a different perspective. And being pragmatic, I also want to come up with concrete action plans to see myself through it and Annie was able to help me out with that. My next challenge is to stay disciplined and work towards the plan that was created. Thank you Annie!

I worked with Annie for 3 job search sessions, and the result was incredible. A month ago I was totally lost, no direction, and feeling completely hopeless about a possible career change. Now, I have a 3 part plan with concrete steps to get me to my ultimate goal, and the internal work I have to do along the way to get there. Thanks, Annie!

I found Annie very helpful and easy to talk to. Annie provided great suggestions and feedback.

Annie provided excellent feedback on my interviewing. She was thoughtful and thorough in her approach.

Annie is a great coach! Her approach and process were very helpful and she is very easy to talk to. She helped me get perspective on where I get stuck, identify what I truly enjoy, and gave me more confidence to go after what I want. Thanks Annie!

Annie was a great coach! I felt like I was stuck in a rut and she helped me unlock my next move. Thank you, Annie!

Talking to Annie was like talking to a friend. She’s so easy to talk to and makes you feel comfortable. I needed help to prepare for a graduate school interview so I wasn’t sure if I made the right choice just based on seeing a lot of reviews about her helping people going through career changes and I needed help prepping for a masters program interview. However, Annie customizes the session based on what you want to go over and is very flexible to all different interview types. The hour long session was very helpful and booking this interview coaching was the best decision I made for preparing for my interview. Just talking to a professional who gives unbiased advice and knows what she is talking about is everything. I won’t lie, I was skeptical about the whole coaching experience until the hour long session. I didn’t know what I needed to harness until Annie bought it to attention. Thanks so much Annie!! If you want to work on making your responses to interview questions concise, gain confidence that you already have within you, and rock your interview work with Annie!! 🙂

Annie provided some great exercises and homework to find my core values and explore different fields. I feel more confident in my job search. She is a great listener and very good at bringing me into the “space” of thinking about careers.

Annie was a great coach! Even when we dug in quickly to make the most of the time, she was great at introducing mindful exercises and taking the extra moment to pause and dig in whenever a new thread appeared. I came out of our sessions feeling more confidently able to articulate my professional needs and more in tune with my gut-reactions to the jobs, industries, and roles I had been exploring.

Annie was very helpful with the whole process. She gave me new strategies to work with and a new frame of mind for how to approach the process.

Annie has been awesome to work with. I worked with her from October 2020 to January 2021. She’s helped me to find what is actually important to me in my career as well as my life, and plan for a career and a life that works for me. After being laid off just before starting working with Annie, I knew I wanted to change careers - Annie helped me identify what my values were and what I wanted to get out of my career and my work, and from there we discussed which careers might be a good fit for me based on my skills, interests, and priorities, and actionable steps I could take to help me get there. We started with the “Stuck in a Career Rut” package and ended with Job Search Strategy sessions as I got more clear about what my goals were. I went from being frustrated about my career and confused about which path to take, to feeling relieved, excited to take action, and more intentional in the life I am creating for myself. I highly recommend Annie to anyone looking to make a change in their career (however big or small), as well as to anyone looking for help in setting new goals in their career, or practical steps to finding a new job.

Annie took everything I assumed about myself and my career and helped me reimagine the future in ways I never considered. She was great at pulling me out of my fixation on labels and professions and helping me really get to the heart of what matters most to me, and how to attract and work with people who share my values. We did a lot of guided exercises that surfaced novel ways of understanding myself and my work, but always felt authentic. Annie is easygoing and very creative in her coaching approach. I will carry what I learned with me forever!

Annie was really great. I booked multiple sessions with her to kind of build upon each other, and ultimately I feel so much better about where I am with pursuing jobs going forward. I had been in a frustrating period of not knowing exactly what I wanted job-wise, both short and long-term; I needed a job but didn't know how to narrow things down or how to market myself. Annie got me on track on 2-3 job goals, including one based on an exciting interest that I didn't know was in me. We got there by dipping into my personal values, and I really appreciate the at-times meditative approach that got me thinking in a new way. I'm excited to use my new tools, including a new resume, to move forward based on what I both offer and truly desire.

Annie did a wonderful job of preparing for our meeting. Annie's methodology incorporated a direct line of questions that helped her identify the areas of deficiency in my job search strategy and technique. A one session meeting with Annie resulted in a list of personal action items to give myself the best chance of meeting my job search goals. Thank you Annie.

Annie was GREAT! I learned a lot from her especially this thought "THINK WITH MY HEART, NOT MY HEAD." As a team, were came up this a plan to move forward towards leaving my present job as a Care Manager and working towards becoming a Self-Direction broker. This new direction will offers me a work-balance life. I can explore having the time to take a creative class like jewelry design. I would recommend Annie as a career coach to anyone seeking a change in their career path.

I highly recommend working with Annie. She's understanding and extremely helpful in determining where you see yourself in your career. She challenges you, in the best way! I found the times we worked together to be very insightful, and I now have a completely different, new outlook on my career goals.

I instantly felt very comfortable with Annie and knew she was the right coach for me. Annie helped me step out of my comfort zone and helped me reach the clarity I was craving. I definitely recommend Annie to anyone that feels lost in their career, is looking for a change, or a more clear defined path of purpose. With Annie, I was able to define my long term goals, my purpose, my values, and what I need to do now to get to where I want to be. Annie's style is to let you figure out for yourself with the tools she provides, what your experience will be. I really enjoyed working with Annie and I'm very excited to follow my next steps

Working with Annie was a great experience. She brought up some very interesting points that I had not originally thought through, each of which will play valuable as a further recruit. Would recommend if you have questions on how to position yourself in future recruiting.

Career coaching is not something I had previously considered, however after working with Annie, I can say that it has been a great investment! Annie's inquisitive style really prompted me to consider: a) The 'whys' of my career change goals b) The 'how' to execute and achieve those goals Now, I have a roadmap and a plan, together with a renewed sense of what I would like to achieve from my career. Thank you Annie!

What I appreciated about Annie was that she created a safe space to express some of my fears and celebrate my accomplishments so far. Our conversations were easy, productive and energizing and I walked away feeling like I had a plan of action moving forward. There is no crystal ball. There is no way to predict the future and I'm not sure what is ahead for me professionally but my sessions with Annie gave me the reassurance that I will navigate all of that in my own way.

I'm very glad to have had the opportunity to work with Annie on my career planning goals. Her approach works to get to the core of what you specifically value and seek in a career, and then builds outward into actionable steps to attain that goal. After working with Annie, I have a clearer idea of where to focus my efforts and feel better equipped to pursue the next steps down my career path.

I was very happy with what we were able to accomplish in just an hour. I liked that Annie reached out to me to explain her approach and to make sure it was a fit for me before proceeding. Her approach to coaching through practicing was exactly what I needed to learn how to build my confidence in negotiating. I feel that this coaching experience will benefit me in many ways!

Annie was really helpful in establishing the right approach for my job search strategy, allowing me to feel confident about acting on it right away! And all of this in a 1h session! Definitely worth it!

I highly recommend working with Annie and already mentioned her to a couple of my former co-workers. Working with Annie was exactly what I needed. Her style and approach is nothing like I've experienced before in a career coach, meaning, she guides you along your journey to reflect and honor what is the right for you. Annie helps you arrive at your own solutions and clarity with her thought-provoking guidance and gentle nudges where necessary. In addition, working with Annie will give you extra "tools in your toolbox" to continue staying on track and support yourself throughout your journey on your own that you can tap into in between sessions and after your work with her. The benefit of her style and approach was beyond what I could have imagined in a career coach -- the experience was much more than that -- I look forward to what's next for myself with the tools and groundwork we've laid out together.

Immediately Annie made me feel at ease! She was easy to talk to, approachable, and we got to the heart of where I needed the most support. Her initial assessment (of a handful of questions) helped me clarify what I wanted. It also allowed us to maximize the use of our hour. I left with a plan and I feel so much better about where I'm going next. I would recommend her to a friend or family member!

Annie was great to work with. What I most appreciated about her style was that she was flexible with the format, allowing me to change our path from week-to-week. Although the course is designed to lead one toward identifying and pursuing new opportunities, Annie had no problem with my calling an audible and ending with a pause on some of the recommended next steps in order to better understand why I'm unhappy in my current role and think of ways to adjust that first before committing to "moving on". I found her style to be more along the lines of asking probing questions and providing feedback on my answers rather than dictating exactly how I should be thinking or acting. I enjoyed this exploratory approach and I think I got more out of our time together because of it. If you're signing up for easy answers, you may be disappointed; however, if you're willing to dive deeper into understanding who you are as a person and a professional and how you can turn those qualities into future success, I have no doubt you will appreciate Annie's program.

I'm about a decade into my career and somewhere along the way, my work just lost its magic. I got stuck. It finally got to the point where I decided I probably need some help, some sort of outside perspective. Going into career coaching I didn't really know what to expect, but coming out I do feel much more clear and confident about my values and how to start going after them. There's still a lot of work to be done but this was definitely a step in the right direction. If you're stuck I definitely recommend working with Annie!

Annie was my sounding board. She listened to my concerns about my career path and helped me to talk through possible solutions. Annie provided a wealth of ideas and pointed me to resources that would enable me to push past my mental roadblock and take the necessary steps to achieve my objective of finding a career I love.

Annie was great. Based on a few questions, she was able to narrow down what I am truly passionate about and suggest industries I should target based on those results. She gave me a lot to think about and I'm excited to take all the information and start to formulate and execute a plan that will help me to change fields.

Working with Annie was a very good experience for me. I had been unable to nail down what I wanted to do with my career and where I wanted to live for over a year. After four sessions of speaking with Annie, I am actually confident in what my values are and what sort of career path I want to take. She was extremely easy to talk to, and was very good at pulling things out of me that I hadn't been able to access on my own. She made me feel very comfortable and was extremely positive while I struggled with my confidence. We finished out our sessions with concrete to-do's and a timeline, which is precisely what I needed to get going. I feel very hopeful for my job search now, and far more confident in my direction. Should I need career advice in the future, I will for sure be contacting Annie again!

For too long, my job search could be best described as a failure to launch. I was trying to decide whether to stay in my current industry or pivot with a career change, but I was going nowhere fast. Working with Annie turned that around. I was in a transitional time, and she helped me on a foundational level by first identifying my core values. Taking the time to do that work with her helped me get more clarity on how to move forward. Annie is very gifted at knowing how and when to ask the right questions. She gives you the tools you need to succeed. Before working with her, this process felt very daunting, but Annie helped me feel very empowered and comfortable on the best path forward. I'm thankful to have worked with her, and I'd happily work with her again.

Working with Annie was a treat. She is so helpful in guiding you through the process. She doesn't just tell you what you should do, but instead gives you the tools to figure it out for yourself. After all, you know yourself better than anyone else!

Working with Annie was terrific. I felt extremely comfortable opening up to her about where I am currently in my career, why I feel stuck and what's next for me. The questions that Annie asks really get you thinking to dig deeper for a better understanding of what you are truly looking for in your career. I would highly recommend Annie as a coach!

Annie's style was kind yet focused, allowing us to maximize the benefit of our time together. I found her creative but grounded solutions to be of enormous value - they helped me understand what I truly desired in a lateral career shift and clarified where I could best direct my next efforts!

I felt comfortable with Annie from the beginning, which allowed us to investigate bigger questions about my career. I also had a lot of practical concerns about my job search and with her methods, she helped me address some underlying themes that shed light on why I had those concerns in the first place. If I feel I need this type of coaching again, I would definitely reach out to Annie.

Annie was a great resource and support helping me figure out the first steps in what I want to do next with my career. She listened and had good insight with what I needed support with. I would highly recommend Annie as a coach!

Annie is lovely to work with as your coach. By the final session, I had a much clearer path to go on than when I first started out.

Annie was a very attentive listener and helped me realize through our conversations that my career goals are in line with the work I have been doing all along. Annie and I worked through several exercises to help me determine what goals I aspire to achieve and how best to do so. She was friendly, professional, and made my experience a highly productive one.

Annie is great! She was very helpful in getting me to really think about what I’m trying to accomplish in my job search. She challenged me to really think about what kind of career I’m after. She also suggested a whole new way to market myself, which once I saw it, made perfect sense. I’d definitely recommend Annie to anyone looking for help.

Annie is great. In just one hour, she was able to really help me narrow down what I need to focus on in my job search. And that is exactly what I needed!

Annie was attentive to the challenge I was facing and helped me immensely with training and working on my interviewing skills. I highly recommend working with her!

I felt comfortable with Annie from the start of our video chat. I truly appreciated how carefully she listened and how she summarized and reflected my words back to me, giving me a new perspective on my thoughts. Throughout our conversation, Annie took notes and created a list with the next steps I could and should take based on our conversations. Towards the end of our conversation, she emailed the list to me and we went through it together, editing it according to my wishes. I enjoyed Annie's coaching style of reflecting my thoughts and statements to me while sharing her expertise with me at the same time. I can absolutely recommend her as a coach and am looking forward to working with her again in the future.

Working with Annie was great. She's a helpful and inspiring partner, and frames reflective exercises and conversations in a way to ensure you get the most of your time together. After our sessions together, I felt I had a much better picture of my priorities in a job and how to find them.

I wasn't sure what to expect from a career coach, more yet, what to expect from someone who had not been personally referred to me. Annie exceeded my expectations. She made me comfortable, yet, was very professional. She was a good listener but kept my thoughts on track and covered a good deal in our session. I have now a list of items I need to think, re-think and a plan to take on my job search with renewed confidence.

Annie was so great to work with! She really created a positive and open environment. She helped me recognize my values which made considering career options so much easier. I would recommend Annie to anyone who is looking to better align their values with their career goals and create a clear game plan for their next steps.

Annie was great. From setting the goals and expectations before the first call, to really getting to the bottom of it. She made me feel very comfortable within five minutes of the first call. She is a very good listener. The questions and exercises were very specific and to the point. And after going through the steps, I got my clarity. She is very prompt with the emails in case you have a question between the sessions. And the coaching also worked with me being on another continent.

I was very overwhelmed when Annie and I had a call. She was very good to create space and provide tangible action items!

Right off the bat I felt comfortable with Annie. She was warm and inviting and curious and she came at me with really thought-provoking questions. Annie framed questions and assignments for me in ways that challenged me intellectually and that led me to uncover some of the falsities that had me so unhappy with my current professional situation. She took me from blind, directionless ambition to clarity and contentment through really thoughtful exercises that helped me establish short- and long-term goals, as well as a framework for attaining them.

Annie was great to work with. I was my first experience with interview coaching and she gave a very helpful framework. She also adjusted quickly to work on the specific reasons I had signed up instead of giving generic advice.

Annie was amazing! Highly recommend. The way she guides you through sessions helps you discover what you truly value and how you can move forward - either in your current role or a new role - with that information. Anyone who enters into this package with The Muse should be open to trusting the process. Ultimately, a career coach can't tell you what to do or what next steps to take, but they can guide you to figuring that out. The structure of these calls were extremely helpful in making the next steps feel manageable and exciting.

Working with Annie was great! Right away I felt comfortable talking with her. Whenever you’re broaching the topic of improving yourself and your career it can be daunting, but Annie made it simple and even fun. If you’re looking for a coach who provides help, but also pushes you to explore your own self and find your own answers, Annie is your go-to person!

Working with Annie was very easy. She pushed me through some stumbling blocks involving negative attitude, and this helped. It felt more like a therapy session than job counseling in the traditional sense.

Annie was an excellent coach. She made me feel comfortable right away and was able to pull things out of me that I hadn't been able to pull from myself. She helped me to identify the path(s) I wanted to explore and provided guidance on how to best navigate them.

Annie is warm, receptive, attentive, and challenging in all the best ways. Her attunement toward me—the questions she asked, the way she compassionately and receptively listened, and the feedback she offered me—set this experience apart for me. The insights I gained in my work with her and the support I felt I received from her have been invaluable in my career-change journey. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Annie!

It's a big step to admit that you need help. It's also a big investment. Annie excels at putting you at ease and leading you through the process. It's clear that you have someone dedicated to making certain that you leave with a clear direction and a plan to execute. In my case the outcome as to what I was aiming for was something I hadn't considered fully, but after a few sessions with Annie, felt very natural. I feel reinvigorated in the search for my next step and because of the work she facilitated, it will likely be the most purposeful move of my career so far. I can't recommend her enough.

I had never hired a coach before and wasn't sure what to expect; I just knew I needed an outside, professional perspective to get me out of my rut. I am so glad I chose Annie! She asked thought-provoking questions and identified the right vocabulary when I struggled with some answers. The visualization techniques she used highlighted my values and what’s important to me; the homework she assigned made me be proactive about making changes in my life. I developed a new mindset regarding my situation after recognizing the positives and brainstorming how to improve the negatives. Each of our conversations created light-bulb moments; I now have several helpful mantras to get me through the next stage of my career. She truly fits the definition of a “coach”: someone on the sidelines who motivates you to be your best self and offers instructive feedback on how to get there. Hire Annie – you won’t regret it!

Annie has been an outstanding coach! She is attentive to the needs of clients and works with us to develop the tools and skills that are going to help us rather than telling us what to do. She is empathetic and thoughtful and will support you every step of the way. I came to her for help planning out a job search strategy and walked away with a lot more tools to help me move forward in my career and in life. I not only feel ready to move forward with a career change and new job but also to take more chances and "stretch" more as I move to the next phase of my career. Although I was sad for coaching to end (for now), I am so much more confident about my future than I was when we first started working together.

Great experience...our rapport was very easy from the start. Always punctual and prepared. I very much appreciated her "visualization" approach in addressing challenges. I don't have all the answers (which was never the goal) but a strong set of tools to guide my professional development.

I really enjoyed working with Annie. I did the Stuck in a Rut program, and after moving through it with Annie, I feel much more aligned with my values and have a strong sense of what I want coming forth in my career and my life. I wanted a coach who could could hear my running themes over all the chatter and help me identify how I could incorporate them into my career, as well as how they were already incorporated into what I currently do. She has a calm, kind and open demeanor, and I felt very comfortable being honest and open with her. She wanted to know in the beginning and after each meeting what I wanted out of the experience, so I felt like we always knew what was expected of the other. At the end of each meeting you are left with homework, and you need to set aside time to do it. If/when I think coaching will help me in the future, I will not hesitate to work with Annie again.

For many of us, the first step is the hardest one. I felt stuck, confused, scared, wasn't sure what I wanted to do and what was important to me. Annie helped with that first step. She is a very positive, kind and supporting. She asked simple questions, that gently pushed me towards self-discovery. Now I'm more clear about my values and what's important to me. There are still a lot of steps to make in my long-term career discovery journey. I feel more confident and have a good plan that I will follow. Thanks to Annie.

Annie was patient, understanding, and a joy to work with. What I was seeking was clarity and confidence in my career decisions, and she provided extremely helpful frameworks to think about what was blocking me from the clarity and confidence, and tools to build it. She helped me to understand and admit to myself CLEARLY and DIRECTLY what I actually wanted, and to start navigating the path to owning it and achieving it.

Annie was very engaged in the process and made the most efficient use of our time together.

I really enjoyed working with Annie during our coaching sessions! During the process, she helped me keep my mind open and really pay attention to how my values line up with potential career paths. I would highly recommend Annie to anyone who has been feeling stuck in their career and looking for outside perspective to create an action plan of short term and long term goals that line up with their fundamental values.

I immediately felt comfortable with Annie, even only meeting via a phone call. She was very friendly, positive and professional and I felt she understood my issues and what I talked to her about. The exercises we did both together and for my homework seemed legitimate and I enjoyed most of them. I consulted Annie because I was having no success with job applications. After our discussions we discovered some key areas to help me focus my efforts and refine them. It was not an easy process but Annie was there for me every time I was struggling. I have finally left a toxic workplace/job and am ready to fully commit to my job search, especially now that I have the clarity and insight Annie helped me gain.

Simply put, Annie is a game changer. I felt like there was a wall between me and the clarity I needed to transform my worklife and Annie helped me figure out my values, how they might connect to my interests, and then craft a plan of action to get me where I want to be. She helps you figure out the questions to be asking yourself and then assists you in identifying what's needed to reach answers that are meaningful.

I had a great experience with Annie. She was thorough and tailored, taking the time to review my materials and work with me to narrow down what would be the best use of our time together. Over the phone, she's patient and easy to talk to; a big plus if your job search is something you'd rather not talk about. My goal was to come away with several concrete steps on how to move forward from here, which we accomplished in our session. She sent a prompt and tailored recap with some useful links shortly afterward. Annie's a great coach, especially for the person stuck in the search, and in need of a little sunshine to make the search feel new again.

This was my first experience with a career coach, and it has been truly valuable. Annie gave me a great framework for thinking about my work and the roles I want to pursue in the future. She is excellent at getting to the core of a question or problem and is completely non-judgmental. She also gave me advice for dealing with a difficult manager so I can keep my negative reactions from causing me to fall into despair and hold me back.

Annie was a pleasure to work with. She brought expertise and detailed insight into tips for the job search process while also giving reassurance about the difficulties and realities of it all. I felt comfortable sharing my goals and progress so far and felt like Annie was able to stitch together a vision going forward to work off of, while encouraging me to do the same on my own. Would definitely recommend Annie as a job coach!

I went in to the sessions with a bit of skepticism, but came away feeling reoriented in my career search and with tools to gauge whether an opportunity has the traits and challenges I am seeking. The working relationship between Annie and me started off nicely with an initial face to face discussion. We worked on shifting away from the slog of being in a role that is a bad fit, and refocused my attention on the values and must-haves that I would like to see in not just my next position, but future positions too. Between sessions she has homework and exercises that are incredibly useful in hitting the ground running to make the most of each phone call. After our sessions I have some techniques I can use to tread water in my current role, but also able take on a secondary mindset while in pursuit of a job that is aligned with where I want to end up later in my career. Most of all, I also want to emphasize that she's just friendly and a pleasure to talk to! It's not always easy to face what's holding you back, but I came away from each conversation feeling good and with new ideas to consider. Thanks!

Annie is an experienced coach and very calming to work with. I appreciated her sensitivity while providing feedback (that was needed!) and sharing tools to use while interviewing. I was nervous and felt vulnerable at first, and Annie did an excellent job helping squash those unhelpful thoughts and feelings.

Annie was great, especially at keeping us on track to our goals and reflecting back what I was saying to her. Given that we only had one hour together and had never spoken before, I feel like we made very good use of our time, and I have some concrete skills and actions to take as I move forward in my job search and interviewing process. I would work with her again in the future.

Working with Annie was a pleasure. Over the course of a few weeks, the work done with her made me a lot more confident in my choices and my decisions. Instead of just giving advice on a specific problem, she worked me through different ways to think of and approach a situation where a career choice is to be made, giving me tools and suggestions that will be useful in the future as well. I would definitely recommend working with her, and would consider working with her again in the future.

Working with Annie was great. We were able to dive in right away and narrow down what I was looking for from a general idea to something more concrete. Our time together and plan of action were exactly what I was looking for as first steps in my job search.

Annie was very kind and helpful. Given that I was looking to change my career path, I was a bit lost as to where to start my job search, but she gave me concrete first steps that made the process seem doable and much less scary. She was reassuring and her positive attitude was a great boost. I will definitely stay in touch as my job search progresses.

Annie was a please to work with, and in the end, I felt more aligned and motivated to get out of the "rut." She was very easy to talk with and provided me with some excellent insights. After our sessions were complete, I had a more distinct list of values and potential career paths to explore. She also provided me with a robust list of next steps which will ensure that I stay motivated. I would highly recommend working with Annie.

Annie was great. she listened and asked questions that drove me to develop an answer.

I reached out to Annie to help me with a job search strategy. The experience was AWESOME. Before our meeting she requested a history of my work experience and to answer a couple questions. From there we booked a phone conversation focused on what I was looking for in a job, how to strategically job search, and focusing on my wellness during the process. Annie took the time to talk about my career and was able to pull out what I was passionate about to put together a focused strategy going forward. It was super easy to work with Annie. It was evident that she truly cares about your success. She has a knack for leading you to conclusions without just telling you the answer. She had me looking at my experience in ways I hadn't before and realize where I truly wanted to take my career. My experience with Annie was really helpful. I came out feeling much more confident about what I wanted and how to achieve it. She followed up our conversation with a strategy email that clearly summarized our discussion. I no longer feel intimidated by the job search... I am actually excited about it.

On our 30 minute call I found Annie to be a perceptive and sympathetic listener who helped me to better understand my career goals even though she was not an expert in my field. She gave a lot of good advice on how to restructure my resume and tips to keep in mind during the job search. I would recommend Annie as a coach to anyone who is looking for guidance on how to effectively make a career change.

Annie is the best! It was so helpful talking to someone completely removed from my family and circle of friends. She brought a new perspective, asked the right questions, and did an excellent job of driving the conversation in a thoughtful way. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone that is looking for help at the beginning of a job search and wants to consider other options while searching. She was so friendly and well worth the money. After speaking to her, my job search became easier because I am finding and applying for jobs that align with my qualifications and experience. If you're on the fence about a coaching session, do it! You'll feel inspired and approach the job search differently.

I was not expecting my experience to be a successful one. To my surprise, Annie can with great advice for every concern or challenge that I threw at her. Annie provided great tools and a great framework for me to build on my career direction. I feel much more confident in how to handle my nerves and fair more confident in interviewing. I would recommend Annie to anyone looking for advice on their career.

Annie led very efficient conversations during the 1 60-minute and 2 30-minute phone calls. She is nonjudgmental and creates a comfortable environment to share ideas and brainstorm. Annie was also able to guide my thought processes and put meaning and structure to them. We closed our last call defining actionable steps, so I could continue moving forward. Annie has truly been a part of helping me feel less "stuck" lately, and I would recommend her to anyone who needs help defining next career steps.

Over the past 6 months, I've worked to overhaul my life from moving across the country to finding full time work. During this time, I've worked hard to consider my professional strengths and interests. Working with Annie allowed me to discover more productive approaches to finding fulfilling, purposeful work in my desired niche area. Additionally, she offered a rigorous approach to determining if I should pursue a dream side-gig. Even though I'd read advice articles, was active in networking, and doing career researching, Annie guided me to more time-effective approaches. I recommend working with Annie to streamline your current approaches and align your interests with your next career move.

Second time working with Annie, left the session feeling confident, and with the tools I need to move forward with the negotiations process.

Annie is very personable, warm, and easy to talk to. I purchased the "Stuck In A Rut" package through The Muse and got a lot out of my conversations with Annie. Having an impartial and insightful third party's point of view on some of the questions I was struggling with was invaluable to helping get me out of my rut! Annie encouraged me to dive deeper into the reasons I was unhappy in my career, helping me see that my career path was not a good fit for my core values. Working with Annie to crystallize these values was really helpful in seeing both what I don't want in a career and what types of work, working environments, and industries would be a better fit for me.

It was easy for me to make a connection to Annie. I appreciated that she gauged my abilities and drive appropriately which really pushed me to get results. She also held me to my true values and dream job aspirations which is what I needed. The outcome is exactly what I needed and she supported me in finding my own way.

Annie was great. With her help, I was able to narrow down the focus of what I wanted to pursue next, and gave me tools to help reframe my story. It was more like working with a therapist than a "job coach", which is what I needed! Thanks.

Bright, helpful and flexible in her approach!

Annie was so helpful and friendly. Not only did she do research before our conversation, but as we were going she was able to quickly and effectively come up with ideas, tag lines, and feedback all while writing notes that she was emailing me as we met! I am so excited to put her ideas into practice and continue on my journey of starting my business.

Annie is a wonderful, encouraging, intelligent and diligent career coach. I appreciated her kind demeanor, and her willingness to shift gears with me. She really helped put me on the path of figuring out what I want from my career, and how that connects with my personal values. I would recommend her to anyone!

Great experience working with Annie thus far - she is a great listener and asks the right questions to make sure I'm thinking about my career and next steps to align with my core values. We are currently working together to map out my 3-5 year career plan (not an easy task!), and she's employed some fun methods and tools to help me moved forward. It's been a pleasure.

With relocating to a new city, Annie helped me with ideas on how to look for jobs and networking in a new city. We came up with a step by step plan how to do this. Annie is very outgoing and easy to talk to!

Working with Annie gave me such clarity and a renewed sense of control and ownership in my job search strategy. It's common knowledge that a strong set of objective eyes and ears work wonders, Annie's straightforwardness coupled with her very high EQ are testaments to this. Her followup email most accurately mirrored our session and serves as a solid road map and powerful tool in my job search strategy. I recommend working with Annie most enthusiastically!

Annie took the reigns in our 30 minute conversation, turning it into a pretty impactful discussion. I felt enthusiastic after we spoke and was left with more ideas and tools in my belt to further my career search. I was shocked at what we accomplished in only half an hour.

Annie was great. She is a fantastic listener and pushes you to arrive at your own conclusions and solutions.

I felt very comfortable with Annie, she gave me great tips and was sure that from the beginning my objectives were clear so that we could work targeting the specifics things I was looking for. I had much more confidence after our first call which was what I was primarilly looking for.

Annie did a great job of guiding and pushing me to get specific around my interests and skills, while also encouraging me to think outside my usual box of what is possible. She was encouraging, helped me process and think through new ideas, and helped me create a new image in my mind of where I have been in my career so far, and how I can move forward towards a job that will be more fulfilling in the future. Would definitely recommend her for those who are feeling stuck in their current position, and are ready to engage in a creative process and think outside their career box!

This was my first experience with career coaching, but Annie put me at ease. She did a great job of listening to me and my somewhat scattered thoughts and she was then able to take what I was saying and articulate it in ways that made sense for me. I feel like we accomplished a lot in a short amount of time, and I feel like I have some direction and a plan to move forward with my search.

Annie really took the time to get to know me and cared about the situation I was in. Her style of coaching is to help you help yourself find the answers to your questions and hesitations about what step to take next. She does this through visualisation exercises, promoting self-care and encouraging different ways of information seeking. By the end of our session, Annie helped me to set hard goals for myself to keep on track with my job search. I walked away from the process with a much clearer picture of what I was looking for in my next career which ultimately helped to narrow down my job search and keep me focused.

Annie was awesome, made me feel really comfortable and confident going into my interview.

Annie was awesome! She helped me look at things from a different perspective and gave me the encouragement I needed to move forward with my career goals. I feel like I have more clarity now and booking a coach session was the best decision I made. It was really worth it!

After I worked with Annie, I felt more clear about where to go next with my life. A fog lifted. We examined a lot of options during my 3 sessions with her, and the way she led me each time was to simply clear away the overgrowth in my path so that I could find my own way. She didn't tell me what to do (a good coach doesn't), rather she helped me narrow down what makes me tick. I really don't know how she did it. I think she's just really good at what she does! If you're looking to have someone in your corner with you as you make a career transition, call Annie. If you're looking for a supportive voice that's levelheaded & compassionate, call Annie. If you feel stuck in your career, if you need advice on how to approach anything in your work environment, if you can't make sense of how exactly to get to your goals & dreams, call Annie. She knows how to listen, and she asks the right questions to help you figure out a plan for moving forward.

Annie helped me focus on what is most important to me and kept our conversations on track so that I could get the most of the coaching experience.

Before I met Annie, I was aimlessly looking on career sites, talking to colleagues in my network, however, not feeling fulfilled with any new opportunities. After my first call with her, I knew I had picked the right package and coach. Annie synthesized all my thoughts and her homework assignments provided me the guidance and clarity that I needed to move forward without imposing her own opinion. She listened intently, followed up on assignments timely and ultimately helped me reach that aha moment that I was looking for. I cannot express enough gratitude for her guidance and help over the last few weeks.

Annie did a great job distilling all of my chaotic thoughts into simple, easy-to-understand goals. I appreciated that she didn't gloss over any comment that I made. She explored each thought methodically and helped me to really expand on what I was thinking. She's super approachable over the phone. I felt like I could speak openly with her after only a few minutes. Annie is a great coach!

Annie was very instrumental in helping me map out what will be the path to my own personal and professional success. From our first phone call she was able to hear what I was saying and provide assignments that required both internal revamping as well as outward/professional revamping. While she didn't dive into the details that would secure me any job, she provided me the tools that I needed to believe I could acquire a job. These things really do begin with us as people and the unhealthy habits we unknowingly carry around with us. Annie is great at giving you mantras that help you acknowledge your own value and reapply it to your job search or current position. I look forward to working with her in the future as I make good on our map of key elements needed to help me further my career.

Annie listened well, took notes, and pointed out some things from my own comments I didn't realize that I had said. She gave me a confidence boost. She was creative and enthusiastic. Thank you.

I booked the 30 min Q&A with Annie. From her first email contact, she was attentive, supportive, and engaged. On our call, she was able to quickly challenge my thinking and provide an entirely new approach to my resume / cover letter writing. If you're in need of a quick career tune-up, Annie's a wonderful guide.

Annie struck a great balance between listening and leading. She gave me space to explain my objectives, responding in ways that made me heard. At the same time, she guided the conversation so that in our one hour we were able to create a comprehensive plan for my job search. Our conversation was wide-ranging and I found she was equally helpful in addressing my emotions and my searching tactics. Our session was everything I could have asked for!

Highly recommend!!!

Working with Annie was a great experience. She really helped me understand how I can improve my job search. She gave me some great advice on what I can do to be more successful during interviews.

The work with Annie was focused on interview skills to understand possible gaps and practicing some questions that were challenging for me, so I could deliver my message clearly and confidently in a real interview situation. The feedback pre- and post-practice were very helpful and as a result I felt more confident to answer any sort of behavioral and situational interview question.

Annie is a superstar! She can see the wood from the trees and really helped me find clarity and direction when I needed it most.

Annie is that first sip of cold water after a long run. Her ability to distill honest and helpful advice out of a messy and confusing situation is just one of the reasons she is an amazing coach.

I treasure her ability to be heartfelt and powerfully aware of what makes someone's voice sing uniquely to one beat and not the other.
