David A. Gerber
Janet's coaching has had a profound impact on my life, business, and results. She asks me the powerful questions that people don't typically ask and then listens to see how I respond and then helps me notice where I get stuck. I can point back to specific insights I have had while being coached by Janet. And further - she asks me how I can make new commitments based on that insight. Grateful for Janet's role in my world.

"I love working with Janet! She makes it easy by being approachable and an overall nice person. She's always very professional, courteous, and reliable. Her quality of work is always exceptional because of her passion and dedication to her work. She will go that extra step to help anyone that needs it. I believe she will be an excellent addition to any team."
Brian Carrillo
Joyful is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Janet. I've had the pleasure of knowing Janet for over a year, during which we worked at Hulu on the Customer Support team. Above all, I was impressed with Janet’s ability to dissect the issue at hand and find a solution that was best internally and externally. I was also very impressed with her go-getter attitude with everything she tackled. Janet would be a true asset for any position requiring problem solving and project development skills and comes with my heartfelt recommendation.
