Testimonials and results

Below are reflections from leaders I’ve worked with through periods of growth and transition.

  • Chief Executive Officer, quip

    What sets Pooja apart is her practical, real-world perspective. Having operated in senior leadership roles herself, she brings a level of credibility and relevance that makes her guidance immediately applicable. I also appreciate the clarity and structure she brings—from setting expectations at the outset to thoughtfully opening and closing each session—which makes the entire experience focused, efficient, and impactful.

  • Chief Accounting Officer, Guild Education

    Pooja has helped me quiet the self-doubt that can slow strong leaders down when they want to move forward with conviction. When I overthink or spiral, she reframes the issue in minutes and reconnects me to the bigger strategic picture. She’s pushed me to trust my instincts, take big bets, and lean into innovation in ways that feel bold - but right. I move faster now, decide more confidently, and lead more boldly.

    VP, Operations, Create Wellness

    Pooja is one of the most empathetic listeners I know. She combines that with her deep operating experience to be a rare coach who truly understands what I’m working through and helps me uncover real, usable solutions. I always walk away from our sessions feeling energized and equipped with a new approach to test. If you’re looking for a coach who can help you navigate the parts of your career you’re growing into, look no further.

    VP, Product, Sprinklr

    Pooja has been a fantastic coach as she has helped me in 3 key areas, 1) Helping me self reflect and identify where I need to focus my self development efforts, 2) Capturing 360 feedback from my peers & mentors and 3) Coaching me on different ways I can work through my self development. What I've really appreciated about Pooja is that she has been a fantastic sounding board and guided me in my own reflections vs directly asking me to work on improvement areas which has allowed me to move with my own volition.

    Head of Growth, Lume Deodorant

    Pooja has this rare ability to help you see yourself more clearly, not by changing who you are but by helping you use what is already working. Our coaching helped me fine-tune how I lead, where I lean in, and when to step back. She helped me recognize my strengths and use them more deliberately, which has made my work feel both more effective and more sustainable. I now hear her voice in my head during tough moments, asking the right questions or nudging me to trust what I already know. What I value most is how grounded her approach is. Every conversation left me with something tangible to try, and over time, those small shifts have added up to real growth. I feel sharper, steadier, and more confident in how I approach my role.
