Teams overwhelmed by competing priorities




Decision fatigue at the leadership level

Before working with Sharilyn, I felt stuck. I had ambitions for my career and personal growth, but I couldn’t clearly articulate what I wanted or how to get there. I was juggling ideas, unsure how to prioritize them or present myself as the leader I aspired to be. I was stuck in a story of job titles, rather than realizing my narrative included so much more. Sharilyn helped me name the skill set I’ve developed throughout my career and my volunteer experience. 

Sharilyn helped me develop a new language around my work experience and what I want to do in my next role. . And, she did so with honesty, empathy, and sharp insight. She also helped me assess the energy levels that I operate at and how to identify when I need to make adjustments. We ended each session with clear tasks for me to accomplish and concepts for me to think about.

Now, I approach my work and leadership development with much more clarity and purpose. If you’re considering working with Sharilyn, do it. She will meet you where you are, help you name what’s been out of focus, and guide you toward what’s possible.

Our sessions were eye-opening and forced me to reflect in new ways. She gave me the terminology to speak confidently about areas in which I needed to grow, especially as a leader.

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.

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 had the opopportunity to be coached by Sharilyn during a season when a lot was converging at once. I was navigating the early stages of launching my own business, facing challenges in my nine-to-five role, and stepping into new motherhood. It was a full, intense chapter of life, and at times it felt overwhelming.

Working with Sharilyn was deeply transformative. There were many powerful “aha” moments, but what stood out most was how she helped me gain awareness and agency over the thoughts that had been spinning out of control internally. Through her coaching sessions I began to recognize the stories I had been unconsciously telling myself and the internal “gremlins” I had allowed to run roughshod over my decisions, confidence, and energy.

That awareness changed everything.

Since completing our coaching sessions, I’ve been newly promoted, and my business is growing. I genuinely don’t believe that would have been possible without the clarity, grounding, and inner shift I experienced through my work with Sharylin. She didn’t just help me cope she helped me take control, reframe my inner landscape, and move forward with intention.

-Talicia Tempro | Leadership Executive & Founder, Be the Bloom

Since completing our coaching sessions, I’ve been newly promoted, and my business is growing.

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.

She was able to help me explore areas in my life that needed attention in very natural and impactful ways. Sharilyn's coaching style is easy-going, yet powerful. I have no doubt many others would benefit from a coaching relationship with her.
