From Passed Over to $40K More – Ellie’s 5%er Story

Published 27 days ago • 2 min read

Hi Friend,

Shayla here. And I'm geeky excited to share this week's podcast with you. I'm starting to feature client spotlights and Ellie is up first. She is a true 5%er. Check out the episode detail below.

She said within six months she 4x'd her investment financially, and 10x'd it in happiness.

🎙️ This week on the podcast
Client Spotlight: Ellie – You Should Be Grateful (But You Want More)
She had global experience, serious skills, and still got passed up for a role she could’ve crushed. We worked together to define extraordinary on her terms—
and six months later? Dream job, dream team, +$40K base salary increase.

🎉 Client Testimonial

"My relationship with my husband improved through our coaching. He said I'm a completely different person. I have stopped coming home and dumping every detail of my bad work day to him and letting it affect our evening. It's not that I just figured out how to manage it on my own its that you taught me to experience it completely differently so I don't even have the overwhelm and frustrating feelings anymore!"

She's a German Shepherd and last week while we were...
