What Our Clients Are Experiencing

"Laurie’s warmth, relatability, and guidance have empowered me to fully embrace my career pause as I balance being a proud stay-at-home mom and building my own woman-owned side business. Through Career Alchemy, I’ve connected with incredible women who bring strength, inspiration, and light, opening up limitless career possibilities"

KKB, CEO

“I definitely recommend to anyone foggy about where they are at in their career or completely floundering! I would preface my recommendation to those considering it by telling them they deserve to do something for themselves. It made all the difference for me.”

K.B.D.

"Laurie has done her homework-in research and through life experiences. She shares that knowledge with inspiration and motivation."

Coaching Client

“I so appreciate Laurie’s coaching. She’s really great at figuring out my root problems.”

Robin, Coaching Client, Tech Entrepreneur

"I feel so lucky to have met the wonderful people through Career Alchemy Academy. I am grateful that we can all help each other. You made this happen. Kudos to you, Laurie!"

YZ, VP IT, Retail

“I have been in a career that has served my life well in terms of providing income, benefits, and SECURITY for the family. However, for fear of losing that security, I tolerated more than necessary and didn’t take action in areas that might have served me better in terms of income, job satisfaction, and giving back. Laurie’s guidance and support have been invaluable as I am now taking my career in a new direction.”

Kellie D., Tech and Business Operations

“Your program focused my energy to reflect deeper on what I would love to do for the next phase of my career. It helped me take stock of my competencies, it helped structure my materials to match the current technology used by recruiters and talent acquisition software; and all this, as well as the coaching, helped build my confidence to represent me and my brand.”

Wendy T., Technology leader

“I so appreciate Laurie’s coaching. She’s really great at figuring out root problems.”

Robin S., Tech Entrepreneur

“I got the courage to apply for a job as a Python coder – and I got an interview! The old me would never have done this because I didn’t think I had enough qualifications. This changed the game for me. Learning about my inner compass and how to use it to accelerate my career will forever inform my career decisions.”

Evelyn, Software Engineer

“Thanks again for being here and whatever the outcome, I want to say I appreciate you so much Laurie. You’re a good person and a significant part of a crucial decision-making and a life-changing phase of my and my daughter’s life. We cannot emphasize how lucky we are to have you as part of our journey.”

AJ, Engineer, Renewable Energy

“The first week of Career Reset was amazing. The Connect the Dots exercise not only reminded me of what I love but also shined a spotlight on the fact that what I am doing now came from someone else’s idea of what I should be doing in my life. Amazing insight for me.”

Susan D. Career Reset Attendee

I’ve talked to several people about this issue and it wasn’t until coaching with you that I got what I needed! Thank you so much.

Harshini, Coaching Client, Cyber Security Analyst

"I appreciate the guidance and support at this stage in my career that is having a positive impact on me and the other women."

Career Alchemy Member

“This was AMAZING! My time invested in Career Reset gave me lifelong lessons, insight into what I really want to do with my career and actionable items I’ve set into motion. I now have a dedicated space for my fiction writing – no more putting it on the back burner. I’m clear on what I want to do in my career and even prioritized my full-time work to accommodate my book writing until I can do that 100% of the time. Career Reset clarified my career goal by connecting my real-life goals with my work.”

Michele K., CEO and Founder

“I have been in a career that has served my life well in terms of providing income, benefits and SECURITY for the family. However, for fear of losing that security, I tolerated more than necessary and didn’t take action in areas that might have served me better in terms of income, job satisfaction and giving back. Laurie’s guidance and support have been invaluable as I am now taking my career in a new direction.”
