Misook Ji, Founder, Head of Design & Research at Misook & Co.

“I reached out to Alison for guidance on challenges I’m facing in my job, including time management, navigating difficult conversations with my manager, and fostering professional growth. She offered practical advice that I can implement, while also being incredibly encouraging and inspiring. My two sessions with her were very valuable.”

Elsa Lee

“Loved speaking with Alison - I really got a lot from the conversation that was affirming about my job search approach, and it was great to get her views on the current state of the job economy and how detailed our narratives should be around metrics, our brand and so much more. She was able to extend our time and it felt so wonderful to have a safe, honest discussion on challenging topics too.”
