Power Shift

“As a direct result of my participation, I am a more confident and concise communicator at work, as an author, and even in my personal interactions. I can’t say enough about how impactful this experience has been for me!”

—Natalie Dunbar, principal content designer

“The supportive (and fun!) community and strong, empathetic guidance from Sara and Jen have inspired me to embrace my authentic leadership style. I feel much more clear about my values and how I will stay true to them.”

—Shani Jayant, principal designer and researcher

“This small but mighty team of coaches helped me move through burnout, coming out the other side with powerful tools for empowered leadership and self-actualization. If I could shout it from the rooftops, I’d encourage everyone to take a program or get some one-on-one coaching from Sara and Jen.” 

—Angie King, head of content

“I feel less anxious when I’m thinking about my work—especially in the context of what’s happening in my domain now. There are a lot of things that I internalized as my fault… thinking about my inner critic and my strengths in a more objective way has been really helpful in terms of figuring out what’s fiction and what’s not, and learning to be kinder to myself.”

—Asia Hoe, senior product designer

“The number one thing I got out of the program was the realization that I don’t need to prove my worth…I have inherent value, and all I need to do is be myself. This realization significantly reduced the burden of overthinking that is inherent to me. I feel like life is much lighter now and less stressful.” 

—Taís Lessa, senior product designer

“Power Shift transformed my approach to leadership. Thanks to Jen and Sara’s coaching, I pushed through my self-limiting beliefs as an immigrant to uncover the kind of leader I am. I now lead with a stronger sense of clarity and trust in my own values.”

—Tiffy Riel, product manager

“The most impactful thing from the program was figuring out my own point of view and that it’s okay to take up space, live louder, and be yourself. That’s hard for me—though I help others do it. How can I be more bold? That’s one of the prompting questions at the end of the program that I come back to.”

—Jonathan Stephens, fractional product leader

“As someone who never saw themselves as a ‘leader’ before, this program gave me the space, tools, and support to reflect on my strengths and values and really own them... Sara and Jen have developed an incredible program and community that I will continue to cherish and draw from for a very long time!”

—Julia Drizin, UX researcher

“In past org shifts I’ve felt passive, powerless, and stranded. But this time around, Jen, Sara, and the Power Shift community and resources are helping me find the places I do have power: to support and hold space for the people around me, to share my vision… and to influence the direction of our new way of working.”

—Allison Huang, product and service design lead

“This program is such an important introspective journey. Sara and Jen lead with confident vulnerability—and it creates an environment for deep, personal growth. It’s helped me own my style of leadership within and outside of the workplace.”

—Alison Burke, content design lead

“Power Shift helped me to embrace my strengths and values. The group coaching had a huge impact on me, both in seeing others unpack relatable issues and in exploring my own blocks in a safe, supportive space.”

—Heather Charles, senior content designer

“This was a wonderful community to learn from and grow with. Jen and Sara have put together something really special. They facilitate their program with empathy and grace, and I walked away with sound, actionable career insights.”

—Amanda Harr, content writer and strategist
