WELCOME

I am a working mom of 2, career breaker & career pivoter, leadership professional, certified coach and hobby motherhood sociologist.

I want to bring more awareness to the lack of support for global working parents.

Those that work on making the world a better place – the social impact geniuses, humanitarian workers, diplomats, philantrophists and international civil servants – often work in the most challenging situations.

 

Yet, when it comes to self-care, family planning and allowing themselves to thrive as parents, these people are often left alone to face a myriad of unhelpful HR policy lingo, service gaps and estrangement from family and friends. 

As someone who had always identified with “job_title” or “insert_organization”, I felt like my world had turned upside down when I became a mom. I had to figure out what I wanted to focus on, how I could be a present mother yet keep career momentum going and what was going to be feasible with my vision of working motherhood.

I now want to give back and help other “global moms” navigate what can seem like a lonely and isolating journey with few positive role models. I want to equip you with the knowledge and confidence to navigate difficult conversations with managers, career exits, pivots and re-entry, going on and returning from parental leave, international relocation, and many other scenarios

Thank you for being a part of this incredible community. I’m honored to have you here, and I can’t wait to witness your journey. Because motherhood matters.

You can continue living by other people's rules. Or you can take radical responsibility for your choices and start living a life you truly desire.

Friendly Words From Clients

What clients have to say about working with me:

After only two appointments with Julia, I reached some interesting and important self-insights, that I need to take into account and apply daily to effectively achieve my objectives. I have overcome the cringe of doing something I didn’t want to do (especially when it means making my voice heard) and doing the actual work to achieve my goals. I have become more familiar with what I feel and I own what I want.
