Ways We Work Together
The work takes different shapes depending on what you’re navigating.
It starts with a question no one has asked you in a while — even yourself.
What we work on
Executive & Leadership Coaching
For how you lead
The role you hold, the people you affect, the weight you carry. For leaders navigating complexity, ambiguity, or a scope that grow faster than the support around it.
We work on what makes leading feel steady — clarity, communication, alignment — both within you and across the people you lead.
What clients often leave with: language for the conversations you’ve been postponing, a clearer line between what’s yours to carry and what isn’t, and a way of leading you could sustain.
Career & Transition
Coaching
For what’s next
For when the current shape no longer fits — a role you’ve outgrown, a pivot you keep positioning, or rebuilding after a layoff or a workplace that cost you something.
We work on what you actually want from the next thing, separate from what you’re supposed to want, and what it would take to get there.
What clients often leave with: a specific direction rather than a general restlessness, criteria you can hold a real offer up against, and a first move small enough that you’ll make it.
Personal & Identity
Coaching
For the person underneath both
For when nothing is visibly wrong and something still doesn’t fit. When you’ve been the responsible one so long you’re not sure what you’d want otherwise.
We work on what’s true now — what’s working, what you have to work with, what no longer fits — and on decisions that reflect you rather than everyone’s expectation of you.
What clients often leave with: an answer to what you actually want that isn’t borrowed from anyone else, and boundaries that hold when tested.
The starting point doesn’t need to be fully defined. The work begins with what is present.
Where this work has particular depth
Four places where people often arrive already carrying something they haven’t had the room to look at. These are also where I’ve spent the most time, personally and professionally.
They aren’t the limits of the work. If your situation sits between them — or somewhere else entirely — that’s often the more interesting conversation.
What you’d do with any of it is yours to decide. That’s what the space is for.
I coach in English, Cantonese and Mandarin. Some of this material lives more naturally in a first language.
Women in Tech
For women in tech carrying more than the job. The double binds are real, and so is everything outside the office that doesn’t pause. All your identities and roles require your attention.
What counts as success is worth deciding for yourself rather than inheriting.
What the work often goes: bring read accurately more often, beginning with yourself.
Multiplexities™
For people holding several worlds at once — professional and caretaking, cultural and generational, relational and individual. Some overlaps, and some don’t.
The weight isn’t working within them. It’s knowing what you actually want when no one needs anything from you.
What the work often goes: what a coherent version of you looks like across all of them — not a better balance between the parts.
Leaders Who Feel Everything
For leaders of any gender who register what a room is doing before anyone says it — who read what sits under the update, sense where a team is about to fracture, and know which conversation actually needs having.
It’s a real instrument. Unaimed, it’s exhausting.
What the work often goes: what to act on, what to name, what to let pass — and what leading looks like when it runs on that perception rather than despite it.
Achievers at an Inflection Point
For people in a role that’s costing more than it’s giving, out of one and rebuilding, or somewhere in between and not yet sure which way it goes.
Often nothing is visibly wrong — still performing, still respected, still busy.
What the work often goes: what’s actually driving it, and what you want — separately from what you’re supposed to want, and separately from whether you stay or go.
One to one · Small groups and cohorts · Couples, by arrangement · Employer-sponsored
Sessions are 30 or 45 minutes, typically over Zoom or phone. Weekly to begin with, moving to every two weeks once the work is underway. Most engagements run 3 - 6 months, with some extending longer.
Some employers do fund coaching — more and more of them do, actually. It’s worth asking your manager or HR for more details. If they do, I can provide the paperwork they need.
I share specific pricing in our first conversation.
How we work
“I left with a new perspective and a sense of what to do with it."
You don’t need a fully formed starting point. Being able to describe what isn’t working, and not yet what you want instead, is where nearly everyone begins.
Free. 30 minutes. No pitch. If it isn’t a fit, I’ll say so and point you toward what I can.
