Career & Professional Development

Becca Baier, BCC
Career & Life Coach

  • My purpose is to help you prioritize and care for yourself every day and make progress on your goals, whatever they may be. I believe in kindness and patience as you figure out what works for you, creativity and optimism as we identify solutions and roadmaps, challenge and support as you take little and big steps, and I’m there for you through it all. I'm there to help you work on your goals, creating clarity on what’s important to you, what needs to shift, and how to get going. Together, we can develop a plan for you to take bold action, learn how to pivot as life happens to stay on track, and receive the accountability and support you need to keep moving forward.

    “Before I started my coaching sessions with Becca, I couldn't figure out how to navigate my never-ending to do lists. I could see the big picture but I couldn't figure out the path to get there. She has helped me balance my work life, side-hustle life and my life in general. She has taught me to believe in myself, even on the hardest days. She has taught me how to recognize that my personal life goals are just as important, if not more important, than my career goals and how I CAN manage both successfully. ” – Alissa, Business Owner, Event Manager & Graphic Designer LinkedIn

    Fun Fact: I am an avid snail mailer and make a book out of all my birthday cards each year!

Denise Krumlian, ACC, PMP
Holistic Executive, Leadership, and Career Coach

  • Coaching is my purpose! I am passionate about partnering with companies, leaders, and teams to create purpose-driven outcomes and greater life fulfillment. As an ICF certified coach with over 25 years of corporate leadership experience, I help leaders and teams get clear on what matters most and why. This clarity aligns purpose and results creating better connections, more compassion, and elevated resilience, engagement, joy, and satisfaction.

    “Denise came at a time when I needed to make a career change. I knew my true calling but getting there seemed insurmountable as I’d be leaving a career that I spent nearly 20 years in. Denise helped me to get crystal clear on my life goals and then strategically guided and supported me every step of the way. It’s never too late to follow your heart and having Denise by my side helped to turn my vision into a reality. I am living a life I couldn’t conceive of a year ago and am happily growing my business.”

Caroline Lenher, ACC
Professional Development & Career Transition

  • I partner with individuals who are at a professional crossroads. Whether struggling with the decision to move forward in your current role or advance up, transition to a new company or on to a whole new career, it is never too late (or too early) to make a change. The key is taking the first steps to figure it out so you can move from feeling stuck to motivated, knowing your value, and ready to take on what comes next with increased clarity and confidence.
