Work With Me
You know you’re ready to work with me when:
If any of the above describe you, then I designed Tame the Inner Chaos specifically for YOU! Check out 3-Month Coaching Relationship—Tame the Inner Chaos.
If any of the above describe you, then I designed Defanging Perfectionism specifically for YOU! Check out 6-Month Coaching Relationship—Defanging Perfectionism.
My Role in Our One-on-One Coaching Relationship
Our coaching relationship rests on confidentially and trust. With that foundation you’re able to show me what you don’t want your colleagues, and even family and friends, to see. That’s powerful because once you get honest with a professional coach, who isn’t entangled in your life, you can get honest with yourself.
With that honesty, you can build the confidence and courage you need to tackle that challenge or go after that big dream that’s calling you.
Throughout our one-on-one coaching relationship, I will:
Work with you to uncover so many cool things about yourself. I’ll be there to reconnect you with all the important stuff you already know, but forgot you knew. And, best of all, you’ll gain new insights that create new possibilities.
“Janet’s penetrating, yet friendly, method of asking questions that gradually moved me to developing my own answers to questions and solutions to problems was critical to my development. She experimented until she found a question that could move me forward in my thinking.“

3-Month Coaching Relationship: Tame the Inner Chaos
Inner chaos (uncertainty, doubt, anxiety, confusion, resistance, and fear) is part of the human experience, especially when you long to bring about change in the world! And inner chaos thrives where challenge and potential are great. Eliminating chaos isn’t possible. Instead, you need life skills for taming that inner chaos!
For three months I’ll become your “personal trainer” for work and life, supporting you in identifying where inner chaos has become a barrier to your aspirations and developing your chaos-taming life skills so you can move past those limitations. Then you can get on with having fun as you make a valuable contribution in your corner of the world.
We’ll co-create a coaching structure for our time working together that fits your unique experiences and current aspirations. My only agenda, whether asking, guiding, supporting, challenging, or teaching, is your success at achieving the goals you set for yourself.
Practical Stuff:
This on-going 3-month coaching relationship will include the following:
Initial 90-minute consultation to craft your Chaos-Taming Map, designed to clarify where you are, identify where you want to be, and chart the next steps of your journey.
Regular coaching conversations—the length and frequency of the coaching conversations are structured to meet your needs, style, and schedule. [They vary from 2-6 conversations per month; 30-90 minutes in length; via phone or video.]
Follow-up feedback with action steps
Text and email support between conversations
Additional resources and support materials as needed
Discover your Path to Confidence, Clarity & Calm so you can . . .
- Quit fearing imperfection
- Trust yourself more
- Extend more compassion to yourself
- Laugh at the non-sense your inner critic whispers, or maybe shouts
- Risk experimenting with that long-neglected idea
- Create, Write, Call, Ask, Tell, Leave, or even Accept
6-Month Coaching Relationship: Defanging Perfectionism
For six-months I’ll become your “personal trainer” for work and life, essentially any area where perfectionism whispers it’s harsh messages to you about how “this isn’t good enough,” “you could never do that,” and “why bother when it can’t be A+ quality,” and so many other messages that evoke doubt, anxiety, exhaustion, and, I’ll say it—fear!
You will learn to identify and weaken the power of perfectionism in your life. As you build consistency with “perfectionism management,” you’ll lower your stress, expand your creativity, and generate energy to accomplish the goals you set. We’ll co-create a coaching structure for our time working together that fits your unique experiences with perfectionism and your current aspirations.
My only agenda in our coaching relationship, whether asking, guiding, supporting, challenging, or teaching, is your success—your freedom from the limiting power of perfectionism.

I am a better person because of Janet!
Janet is a wonderful coach! I’ve been working with her for over a year now.
Janet is a very good listener and provides honest and helpful feedback. She has been able to help with any issue that I’ve brought to coaching sessions. Janet makes it easy for me to discuss uncomfortable situations. I’ve been using the strategies that I’ve gained from Janet to improve my personal and professional life.
The information that I’ve received from her has increased my confidence in my abilities and has changed the way that I think about information. Janet send me motivational tips and strategies a few times a week. These spontaneous messages help me through the days and weeks. Janet really cares about me and the topics that I bring to coaching sessions, and wants me to be the best that I can be. I am a better person because of Janet!

Not sure you need a 6-month or even a 3-month coaching relationship to contend with your inner chaos?
(But you’d absolutely love a professional assessment?)
Let’s Craft Your Chaos-Taming Map
Schedule a 90-minute consultation to craft your Chaos-Taming Map to clarify where you are now with your inner chaos; identify what you want to accomplish with the inner chaos tamed; and what course of action is needed to tame your inner chaos and bridge the gap between where you are now and where “success” is for you.
I’m all about making the journey as rewarding as your eventual success. This 90-minute consultation serves as the stand-alone version of the Chaos-Taming Map consultation that both coaching relationships begin with.
If you decide one of the coaching relationships is the path for you, the stand-alone Chaos-Taming Map consultation cost of $99 will be deducted from your 6-month or 3-month coaching relationship invoice.
Groups
If your team members, organization, steering committee, or board of directors had greater confidence, resilience, and/or motivation, how might that effect the achievement of your mission or goals?
Imagine your team developed a shared vocabulary and common tools for taming inner chaos. Remember inner chaos (uncertainty, doubt, anxiety, confusion, frustration, and fear) is part of the human experience. Inner chaos creates obstacles for groups of people just as it does for individuals.
Whether your organization, team, or board members need a one-time awareness raising presentation, targeted workshop practice, or longer-term skill development through training with follow-up one-on-one or group coaching, I craft each of these specifically to meet your needs.
I bring a very dynamic and engaging coaching/teaching style honed from 25-years’ experience in higher education as a college professor and director of innovative teaching.
Below are titles of work I offer in these varied formats (presentations, workshops, and training and follow-up coaching programs):
Want to learn more? It’s easy. Answer a few questions and I’ll craft a specific description and far more details on your range of options.
Janet’s wisdom and communication approach are tremendous!! Her knowledge, resources, and strategies are wonderful.
