Take the First Step Toward a Life and Career You Love
I see you…
Second-guessing every decision, thinking, “What if I fail? What if I’m not good enough?”
Overthinking every step, wondering, “Am I even capable of handling this? What if they find out I’m struggling?”
Pushing yourself to meet everyone’s expectations, silently screaming, “When will it ever feel like enough? I’m so tired.”
I know how it feels because I was you.

I’ve Been Where You Are, and I Know What It Feels Like.
We might not know each other yet, but I already know we have a lot in common. Like you, I’ve felt the relentless pressure to have it all together. I’ve spent sleepless nights second-guessing my decisions, wondering if I was truly cut out for the roles I was stepping into. And I’ve carried the weight of trying to prove my worth in spaces where I wasn’t always fully seen or heard.
As a Latina, woman of color, fiancee and mom, I know firsthand the challenges of balancing career ambitions with personal responsibilities. I’ve juggled the demands of work and family, felt the sting of self-doubt, and wrestled with the fear of not measuring up. I’ve asked myself, “How do I make it all work without losing myself in the process?”
There were moments when I felt stuck—unsure of my next step and overwhelmed by the thought of figuring it all out alone. But everything changed when I sought the guidance of a coach. For the first time, someone helped me see my potential in a new light, navigate the doubts holding me back, and align my career with the life I wanted to live.
Through that journey, I learned that creating balance and confidence isn’t about being perfect or doing more—it’s about shifting your mindset and focusing your energy where it matters most. I realized I could redefine success on my terms and create a life that felt authentic and fulfilling.
Today, as a Certified Professional Coach and Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner, I’m here to help others do the same. I’m passionate about supporting professionals who feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck in their careers, helping them create the breakthrough they need to thrive. Whether you’re struggling to make a big decision, questioning your abilities, navigating big transitions, or simply looking for a sense of balance, I bring empathy, authenticity, and a deep understanding of what it means to feel like you’re carrying the world on your shoulders. I’ve been there—and I’m here to help you uncover the path that works for you.

- Lon Wong | Leadership Consultant
Sharilyn Chavez is a wonderful and intuitive coach
I struggled with my voice and presence in sales, specifically as a woman in a male-dominated industry. I wanted to improve my business acumen, confidence, and ability to present effectively in a room with key players. Sharilyn helped me define my unique voice and develop the self-assurance to engage with different personas. Through mindset techniques, role-playing, and even teaching me the effectiveness of a power stance(!), Sharilyn gave me the tools to excel. I feel more confident and capable than ever in my sales career and as a business woman, now with my own company. I highly recommend Sharilyn to any woman looking to elevate her career, find her authentic voice, and become the professional she aspires to be.
- Caroline Morano | Sales Professional & Business Owner
Working with Sharilyn Chavez has been a game-changer for me.
One stand-out part of working with Sharilyn is her way of cutting to the heart of a challenge, with empathy. This really helped our sessions to be productive, enabling us to spend time on what really matters and is going to be a lasting impact, rather than a short-term adjustment. Her people leadership, experience across multiple industries and her outstanding sales acumen, were all so valuable as I navigated work related challenges. Sharilyn was just as adept helping me navigate life challenges when they arose and helped me get out of my head by helping me with visioning and goal setting.
Dawn McGoldrick | Executive Coach & Former Deloitte Partner
Sharilyn is an intuitive coach who creates a safe non-judgmental space for every session.
I felt lost, overwhelmed, and unsure of the direction I was heading. I had tried holding myself accountable on my own, but without outside support, I wasn't making the progress I needed.
During our work together, I felt completely empowered. Sharilyn helped me understand the deeper reasons behind my reactions and behavior, giving me invaluable tools to self-reflect and set personal boundaries. I learned how to center myself amidst the chaos, and that made a huge difference in my ability to stay grounded and focused in my personal and professional life.
Now, I have a much clearer sense of purpose. I’ve stopped giving so much power to things that no longer serve me, and everything seems much more manageable. Life doesn't feel as extreme anymore, and I have a renewed sense of clarity and direction.
If you're considering working with Sharilyn, I can't recommend her enough. She’s incredible. She will help you find your power, equip you with the tools you need, and set you on the path to achieving your goals and planning for a bright future. Working with Sharilyn has truly been a game-changer.
Tara Fdaee | Sales Professional
Before working with Sharilyn, I was struggling to find my purpose and regain my drive in my professional life.
I faced several challenges, including procrastination, lingering depression, mental exhaustion, brain fog, and, at times, confusion about what steps to take next.
In the past, I had relied solely on self-motivation, pushing myself to move forward without much outside guidance.
Working with Sharilyn wasn’t easy at first. The sessions were mentally draining, but by the end of each one, I could clearly see the benefits, insights, and opportunities she helped me uncover. I always left each session feeling lighter, more inspired, and equipped with a clear action plan for the next steps in my journey.
Sharilyn is incredibly patient, non-judgmental, and an excellent listener. She has a unique ability to help you find your own solutions, guiding you through your struggles and revealing answers that were often right in front of you, but not yet recognized.
