Coaches Corner
I’m a certified mentor coach (and a PCC) on the International Coaching Federation Mentor Registry. If you are working towards your ICF Credential, or looking to improve your coaching skills, contact me for mentor coaching. All ICF candidates are required to obtain a minimum of three, 1:1 hours with a Mentor Coach. I can help you select the right recording/transcription for the ICF accreditation.
“It was such a pleasure partnering with Juliann to mentor me in structuring, reviewing, and finalizing my ICF Performance Evaluation Recording. I appreciated her asking me how I would like to structure each session at the beginning of each session because I like to give and receive information during sessions in a specific order that helps me make sense of the information being shared. She also provided me with feedback on some of the most minor mistakes I wasn't seeing that helped me achieve more significant improvements in my language, choice of words, and sentence structure. Plus, Juliann highlighted my potential that I wasn't recognizing in my recordings. The result of her mentoring led me to pass my ICF Performance Evaluation and now I am able to proceed with taking the ICF Coaching Knowledge Assessment. Even more, I gained more confidence as a coach, better structure for my coaching sessions, and reassurance of my skills and potential to serve my clients. I am grateful for Juliann and I am confident for those who decide to work with her will achieve quality results. “ Brian Luna
Juliann was both an instructor in my coach training program and my mentor coach; helping me to further develop my coaching skills and prepare for the ICF Professional Coach Certification. Her support has been invaluable. As a student, she offered me very actionable skills in ways that were both mentally sticky and very easy to apply to my practice immediately. In our 1:1 mentoring sessions, she observed my coaching practice and then again gave me simple and actionable feedback that improved my coaching immediately. She is kind and thoughtful and direct. I very quickly felt at ease with Juliann and safe to ask questions and be vulnerable. Her feedback was always explicit both in naming what I was doing well so that I could see my strengths, as well as clear and specific areas for growth with tips on how to shift into new ways of being. I am so grateful for all the support she provided me to grow and further develop my coaching practice. If you're ready to level up, Juliann is the one!” Jen Ammenti
Juliann is a great mentor coach! She provides helpful insights from deep experience in coaching, including concrete tools, resources, and frameworks that can be leveraged with clients. She does a great job distinguishing between when she's mentoring or coaching, and she always gives upfront, honest feedback and perspective to help you consider all aspects of a problem / challenge.

Juliann is a true mentor. She holds remarkable space, getting out of the way and allowing her mentees front and center stage. She is wealth of knowledge when called upon and with permission able to offer just the data one seeks. With years in the coaching space she can provide insight into what coaching in different spaces and places may look like, a valuable resource for someone getting into the coaching arena. She is a great representation of what happens when one upholds the highest professional ethics and dedicates themselves to the field of coaching. As her mentee I was able to not only pass my recording but given invaluable support in advancing on my own personal path as a coach. You know she is in your corner rooting for you every step of the way, something we all look for when considering who to trust in the sacred role of mentor. Even after passing my ICF recording and hiring Juliann to fulfil my mentor hours; I know she is someone I will circle back around to for mentor support time and time again. Karissa Kocjancic
“During my two months of receiving mentoring from Juliann, I went from feeling insecure about my coaching skills to feeling much more confident and empowered. Juliann gave me eye-opening, detailed feedback on my practice coaching, shifting my attention from things I thought were important to things that were actually more critical to great coaching. She provided plenty of positive feedback on the things that I was doing well, building my confidence in my work. She also coached me, providing valuable role-modeling of great coaching. I believe I'd be in a very different place without her mentoring. “
