I value great conversations, making a difference, and I want to help people heal, grow and to make an all-round better, healthier and gentler world.

Meet your coach

Joanne Ostler, PCC

Looking for a trusted sounding board and a safe space to explore hard things? You’re in the right place. Life and work get complex and lonely, and it is really hard to navigate it all on our own.

My clients often tell me that working together helps them feel seen, gain deeper insight, and find the courage to move forward. That’s because our brains aren’t wired to figure everything out alone: we go in circles. Coaching offers a way through.

Why Work With Me?

I am a professionally credentialed (PCC) executive and leadership coach. Since the mid-2000s I’ve supported leaders and professionals through career development, performance, and leadership dilemmas.

I take a whole-person approach, drawing on evidence-based frameworks such as vertical development, strengths-based leadership, and emotional agility. I am also a trauma-informed coach, skilled at creating safe, supportive spaces where clients can pause, reflect, and build clarity for decisions and actions.

I particularly enjoy working with thoughtful professionals facing change, stress, or conflict, helping them step back, see new perspectives, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Key Focus Areas:

✔ Navigating Transitions, Change & Uncertainty – Career shifts, divorce, starting a family, health challenges, relocation, grief, or any life disruption that rattles your sense of identity.

✔ Profiling: Strengths, Values & Personality, and Vertical Development – These assessments often provide a powerful shortcut to self-awareness, insight, and growth.

✔ Career Development – Over 20 years of supporting clients through career dilemmas, turning points, and strategies.

✔ Caring, Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) – If this trait resonates with you, I’ll support you in finding ways to thrive in a world that can feel overwhelming.
