Within a short time, Martina helped me improve my situation at work and boost my energy and positivity.

“Martina is very intelligent and balanced. She is a great listener and the sessions were open and direct. I felt that within a short time, we were able to dive deep into topics in a very flowy and informal style. She has a holistic approach to coaching and I found her insights interesting and useful.

I couldn’t be happier with choosing Martina as a career coach and look forward to keeping working with her in the future.”

Martina helped us prep our academic resumes to fit industry, coached us through interviews, helped with our responses to emails from job offers, and negotiations through the pandemic.

“We met Martina through LinkedIn. We received multiple proposals and only Martina's response made me want to pick up the phone and make a call. We were not sure how we needed help and she was approachable to just have a conversation without having to commit. We both had jobs but were not too happy as we knew we could do more. Long story short after the first 15 minutes we were convinced we could use her guidance. Martina helped us prep our academic resumes to fit industry, coached us through interviews, helped with our responses to emails from job offers, and negotiations through the pandemic.

After talking with Martina and journaling about my choices, I'm recognizing my intuition again. I feel like I'm making better choices to put my energy where I want it to go.

"My threshold for frustration had been lowered, stress levels were skyrocketing, and I was feeling disoriented on my next steps in my career. In fact, I was worried I had made the wrong career move. When I took the ELI, I was expecting to learn where my energy was being drained and how I could manage my overwhelming stress. What I wasn't expecting was to learn how strong of a leader I am when I am operating in my zone! My energy profile reminded me of times when I was operating equally with my intuition and my logic. After talking with Martina and journaling about my choices, I'm recognizing my intuition again. I feel like I'm making better choices to put my energy where I want it to go. I catch myself sometimes making choices without checking into my intuition and realize I'm not as excited about them. Tuning in to how I feel has allowed me to keep my energy up and course-correct in my career to where I feel more aligned with where I want to take it."
