“Laser Sharp; Expertly Walks The Line Between Person-Focused & Business-Focused”

Kate Bonnycastle ~ Writer

“Jac shows up as no-nonsense and powerful; her focus is laser sharp.  I don’t know how Jac can be so hard-ass and gentle at the same time but she does it. She expertly walks the line between person-focused and business focused - with Jac, it was always about my business, except when it wasn’t.  I like that she understands women, families, kids and husbands and  . . . business, clients, deadlines and money.  The fact that she can do, but didn’t start at, woo-woo was important to me. Jac helped me hone in on my niche and right client, pull together descriptive copy and a body of work, and launch a website that I am PROUD of.  My  business has always been there.  But now it feels like a thing I can grow, pay attention to, advocate for and describe.  Together we moved through the swamps, rock walls, shadows and cobwebs and voila — I’m right where I thought I’d never be.”    Kate Bonnycastle, Writer

Abby Kerr ~ Writer and Voice Ally

“Jac is a great friend to your desires as a woman solopreneur. She expands the meaning of the word ‘coach’ just by being who she is. She has a deep awareness of what sacred work is, the layering of personal transformation and business strategy. She approaches each client’s vision for her life and business with the tenderness and accountability she’d bring to her own. You work with Jac when you’re ready to dive deep, yet stay centered. When you can accept great compassion and are open to experiencing it from yourself. When you’re done with fragmenting your life, your work, your desires, and you’re ready to experience wholeness.

“Real Results That Changed Everything”

Rebecca Clarke ~ Emotive Photographer

“Jac is my not so guilty pleasure!  Not only is her coaching style positive and supportive, but she also helped me achieve real results in my business. She asked me questions that I had never thought of before, and got me thinking in new and more creative ways. This led to a better vision for where my business was going, and more clarity about who is my right client and which clients I should say no to. By the end of our sessions together I found my brand was strengthened and focused, I realized a niche that made my business unique, and I was able to develop special services and a new tagline.   The best part is that I now feel comfortable communicating what I do online and in person. This has changed everything.”  Rebecca Clarke, Emotive Photographer,

“Tangible Solutions, Meaty Opinions, No Airy-Fairy Nonsense”

Allison Smith ~ Voice Over and Narration

“Jac and I had an instant simpatico, I found her realness refreshing.  She helped me trim and redirect where I was headed in my business.  What I loved most about our sessions was that there was no airy fairy “well what does your *heart* tell you to do…?” or any vague, general, or ethereal nonsense that can’t actually be put into practice.  Jac gave tangible solutions.  She offered opinions that were meaty, and yet non-dominating… the choice and decisions were all mine.  But she provided strong tangible guideposts and clarity without telling me what to do or leading me.  That approach made these sessions worth their weight in gold.” Allison Smith, Voice Over and Narration

I love Jac!  Working with her has been a powerful experience.  She has helped me become more grounded and clear about who I am and what I know.   I’ve taken specific action as both a leader and entrepreneur.  My business is flourishing and growing as a result.   I appreciate her ‘no judgment’ approach and her ability to ask powerful questions that get right to the core of what matters.  She gets to the root of issues by getting curious and just when you expect she is going to say one thing— she throws out a curve ball.  She holds me accountable and each time we speak, it’s as if we’ve never skipped a beat from one session to the next.  She is authentic, caring and honest.  Jac has helped me to grow as a business owner and leader and as a wife and mother.   Helen Baxter, Clear Path Solutions

 “A Renewed Sense Of Being”

Beth Pye ~ Executive Director, Business Breakfast Club Atlantic

“There are no words that can do justice to the way I feel about Jac and the work that we’ve done together.  I have gained a renewed sense of being: stillness, confidence, empowerment and self assurance…these are the gifts that have been given, and they shine from the inside out.  Jac has helped me find direction, clarity, vision, and the ability to really dig deep and ask myself the hard questions, to not be afraid of the answers, but to welcome them for the lessons that will be learned.  Looking back over our time together, I can not imagine walking this life altering path with anyone else.  Jac is genuine, warm and honest and she gave me an instant sense of comfort and being at ease.  I feel incredibly grateful and so blessed to have had this wonderful opportunity.”  Beth Pye, Executive Director, Business Breakfast Club Atlantic        

Caroline Russell-King ~ Playwright, Dramaturge, Literary Manager

“Robert Heinlein said “In the absence of clearly defined goals we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it”. I can give a great deal of credit to Jac for my emancipation. She’d say it’s all me, but she was the catalyst for change.  Since working with her I have taken a different path. This path has led me to my true self, an artist and writer. I’m very grateful to have worked with Jac. She is a wise and wonderful woman. Dr. Mark Albion said “Don’t get really good at what you don’t want to do”. And I say “If your life isn’t what you know it can be, call her.”  Caroline Russell-King, Playwright/Dramaturge/Literary Manager
