Limited seats. This program is delivered one-on-one to a select number of founders each year.
Even the sharpest operators hit moments where the external playbook isn’t enough

Are ready for 1:1 depth and committed to the work.

“This program changed the way I see myself as a leader. I came in with doubt and left with clarity and conviction.”
“PJ helped me reconnect to why I started this company in the first place. That clarity reshaped how I lead my team.”
“I finally feel like I can lead without burning myself down in the process.”
“Perhaps you, like me, were once feeling stuck and overwhelmed, unsure of how to move forward from past traumas. That all changed when I met PJ. She has completely changed my outlook on life and helped me break free from the chains of self-doubt and rumination. She is a beacon of light in a world of darkness. PJ has a special gift for connecting with others and guiding them towards their true potential. She showed me how to harness my innate skills and personality traits to achieve success in both my personal and professional life. The biggest outcome of working with PJ is the CLARITY she brings to your life. With her guidance, I have gained a clear understanding of my strengths, weaknesses, and how to use them to my advantage. I now have a clear vision of where I want to go and how to get there.”
“Our journey began at World Congress where she led a session as the author of the book we had read for my leadership cohort. Her story both resonated and inspired me. I was feeling conflicted about work and life decisions. As I learned, I felt I had more questions than answers. So I hired PJ as my life coach. PJ guided me through self-discovery. I learned to love myself for exactly who I am as my true self. I loved our time together and will forever cherish my friendship with PJ”
“I had the pleasure of working with the kind, gentle heart that is PJ a couple of years ago. Like so many, I was struggling during the quiet and slowdown of the pandemic—both personally and professionally. Feeling a huge disconnect between my daily activities and my purpose, I contacted PJ and spent a number of weeks with her. By means of assessments, hours of deep discussion, beneficial homework assignments, PJ was immensely helpful in my understanding myself and leveraging my strengths to experience a more fulfilled, purpose-driven life. PJ is a compassionate, caring counselor, and she immediately fostered a safe space and motivating environment. Thanks to my time spent with PJ, I was inspired to remain in my ‘true center,’ and live my life authentically and with grace. I offer my highest recommendation of her services!”
“PJ’s coaching masterfully guided me through a process that allowed me to develop the compassion needed for expanded awareness. With PJ’s coaching, she helped me do the difficult personal work that helped me shift my insights. We covered important topics, what drives my creativity, my sense of purpose, how I communicate and use my voice, etc. With PJ’s coaching, I could start to balance my focus on who I am, and this caused a ripple effect of change.
PJ once told me during a coaching session that, ‘freedom is to know what you bring to the table and know you have nothing to fear,” and this is precisely what PJ’s coaching helped me to see and embrace. PJ is simply remarkable!”
“My coaching sessions with PJ mark a significant transformation in my life. PJ’s course was one of several self-help and healing projects I was integrating into my journey at the time, as I was determined to grow spiritually and ascend to higher levels of clarity and abundance. PJ is highly intuitive, and I was awe-struck by her consistent ability to live in the flow. Each session was tailored for me personally, while still following the course curriculum – not an easy feat to pull off. PJ was open, spontaneous, genuine, honest, and present. She kept notes and remembered details from our previous conversations, and even held me accountable for the weekly homework, which she diligently reviewed and provided feedback on! PJ’s course answered questions I didn’t even know I had.”
