Throw all of your traditional ideas about career coaching out the window when you have your first appointment with this vivacious, knowledgeable lady! Laila is a gem, and has found her calling! From our first conversation (which is free by the way), she made me feel listened to and cared about. I knew right away we'd be a good match. She spent over an hour on our free consultation getting to know me and my needs. During our first session she took copious, handwritten notes. Think of this as a career/life coaching combo, or 2 for 1! Well worth her fees, be prepared to spend several hours of your week soul searching and committing to a process that will be well worth it in the end. Please don't make a career coaching decision without calling Laila first. She is amazing!

The time I spent working with Laila as my guide was clarifying and inspiring! My main goals were assessing career options and getting my life priorities straight. In just a few short weeks she provided me with valuable tools to start implementing time saving strategies and enhance my quality of life. Everything was considered and discussed, from meal prepping, personal budget assessment, and continuous support via email and text for career exploration. This inspired me to look at career options I hadn't considered before! With Laila’s holistic insight and creativity I feel confident in honing in on my dream career and living a balanced, fulfilled life!
Laila is an old soul who is an ageless ninja when it comes to anything and everything about seeking fulfilling work. Hire her to help you deep dive to figure out your dream career. She also performs magic with resumes, LinkedIn profiles and networking. She truly sees you and intuitively supports you in being your best self.
I rarely write 5-star reviews, but in this case I'm going to. I was a client of Laila's for about a year, and had over 30 appointments with her during this time. Essentially, her process included in-depth reflection on what sort of work I might enjoy most, researching various type of jobs that involve those things, and interviewing people who actually hold those sorts of jobs. Throughout, she encouraged me to a high level of thoroughness. She often stressed that it was important to find a career that I could really enjoy because she genuinely didn't want me to get into a line of work I ultimately wasn't happy with and have to start over. A few points that highlight my experience: 1. Laila is an outstanding listener, one of the best that I've ever had sincere conversations with. Whenever I was hesitant about something she would hear my reservations, and discuss them in-depth until I either became comfortable or we adapted our strategy in a way that worked for me. 2. Laila is a powerful researcher. She was able to give me all sorts of information about careers that I was interested in in relatively short amounts of time. 3. Laila is brilliant at human interaction strategies. Sorry if this sounds nebulous. What I mean is, whenever I felt awkward about some interaction, say soliciting someone that I didn't know to talk to me about what they think of their job, Laila always had ideas about how to handle the conversation. Her thoughts helped me ask for what I wanted in a way that I wasn't imposing on the other person unduly, or putting them in an awkward position. 4. Finally, during our sessions together I sometimes brought up aspects of my life outside of my job search. Laila was always helpful in these conversations, and I appreciated her willingness to be a life coach as well as a career counsellor. I give Laila my highest recommendation!
Laila's career counseling services are comprehensive! Throughout my transition, Laila helped me with everything from big picture visioning, to resume writing, to interview preparation. She was instrumental to my success and sanity, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to find greater fulfillment in their lives or simply experiencing a transition. Laila is incredibly perceptive. I felt startled by how well Laila seemed to know me after only a few sessions together. She listened to what I said, and quickly understood my hopes, dreams, strengths, and weaknesses. With this awareness, she identified intersections of my strengths, skillsets, and values--and fitting career opportunities--that I hadn't even begun to fathom. Laila's kindness and curiosity created a safe space to explore my wildest dreams. Laila's incisive, strategic advice regarding resume and cover letter writing was invaluable. She made the tedious process of resume writing enjoyable. She helped me craft a strategic approach, refine my materials to highlight quantifiable wins I've had throughout my career and to articulate my accomplishments in a way that was both attention-grabbing and succinct. Perhaps most importantly, the space Laila held for me throughout my transition was supportive, optimistic, and nurturing. Laila was a beacon of light for me when my sky felt thick with fog. She truly helped me find my way, and illuminated my strengths and passions that I had been blind to. I am deeply grateful to have found Laila, and I will forever be thankful for her light!
