• "Karen has always been an amazing mentor to me, so her transition into career coaching not only made total sense, but ended up turning into exactly what I needed in my professional life. She has guided me through some major career transitions, but also helps me with the day to day things that I have a tough time navigating on my own. An hour with Karen is always therapeutic and leaves me with a sense of calm amongst whatever chaos is going on. I highly recommend working with her. "

  • "‘Karen has always had the ability to listen, outline the exact professional issue or opportunity and give clear guidance forward. With kindness. As a coach Karen brings all that plus a new toolbox of incredibly helpful tools. I couldn’t recommend her more’. "

  • "Coaching with Karen Crane is one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself. Her coaching has helped me have breakthroughs professionally and mentally in ways I never expected, but so needed. She's an incredible listener who takes the time to understand YOU and what YOU need. There's no one size fits all with Karen, which makes working with her so incredible. Do yourself a favor and book a session with her!"

    – Project Director, Advertising

  • "I have been working with Karen for the past year and the impact and gravity of her coaching prowess is unmatched. She isn't just committed to developing people as leaders, she is committed to providing a psychologically safe space to get to the root of challenges that impact you professionally, but also how your personal life intersects at every angle; the true meaning of creating work life balance. The revelations we have arrived at during our sessions have had a tremendous impact on how I think strategically, who and what I choose to show up for, my professional and personal relationships and creating a path that allows me to be more successful in accomplishing my goals each day. Karen's coaching is not for the faint of heart as some of the answers are emotionally tolling, but having the space to unpack some of the hardships, hurdles and challenges of my life has given me access to my greatest powers. Simply put, working with Karen has been one of the greatest assets to my progress and well-being. I look forward to continuing my work with her for years to come."

  • Karen has a unique mix of pragmatism, empathy and industry experience that makes her the perfect coach for an advertising professional or creative person of any kind. Over the course of our work together, Karen has helped me build a toolbox to handle a lot of the stress, perfectionism and anxiety that was draining my energy in both my personal and professional life. She stewarded me through advocating for a raise and promotion for the first time in my career and the eventual imposter syndrome that came along with getting that promotion. Her tactical, straightforward approach to coaching has trained me in new ways of thinking that have completely changed my self-esteem for the better. I’ve never had a coach before, and I was initially nervous about finding it meaningful. I shouldn't have worried, Karen is the perfect first-time coach, she’s extremely approachable, open to feedback and tailored the program specifically to my needs.
