As a consultant myself for many years, I have a particularly warm spot in my heart for independent professionals like you. I’ve worked with consultants to help them achieve better work/life balance, to pump up flagging businesses, and to re-direct their businesses into more fulfilling and satisfying directions.
I also know that every consultant’s business is unique. So I’m offering a free, one-half-hour, telephone coaching session to help you find out if Focus First is right for you. To take advantage of this special offer simply E-mail me at ellengood@focusfirst.com.

"The changes in my lifestyle have been profound. Through the process of working with Ellen, I have successfully streamlined my business into a more profitable, less stressful, more energizing slice of my life. For the first time in my adult life, my career is not the largest slice of the pie and for that I (and my family and friends) will be forever grateful."

• Transitions — Career, Job, and Life Changes
What do you want from your career and personal life? You’ll begin by pinpointing your special values and skills. Then work in a supportive, structured and safe environment to achieve your dreams and goals.
"When I decided that I no longer wanted to continue operating my own marketing research business, it was the scariest time of my life. I knew I needed help to work through all my conflicting thoughts and emotions, and that’s why I turned to Ellen.
Ellen was a wonderful coach. She helped me express, solidify, and focus on my own personal vision. Then she helped me develop a concrete plan of action so I could turn my vision into reality. She was empathetic and supportive when I lost faith in my vision, but she was also tough with me and kept me moving in the right direction when I became paralyzed with fear and started
procrastinating.
As a result of my work with Ellen, I accepted not one, but two (!) new jobs working in my chosen field. I truly could not have come to this point without her help. I would thoroughly encourage anybody considering a major career change to work in a coaching relationship with Ellen. I found that her skills, knowledge, wisdom, style, and natural compassion combined in a powerful way to help me achieve my goals and head in a new direction."
