In this episode, host and a)plan coaching founder, Michael Counts, talks with a)plan coach, Kirsten Romer, about her work in Silicon Valley and beyond as a coach and leader of Women’s Circles. The discussion explores the value, power, and importance of this kind of support for women in the worlds of Venture Capital and Silicon Valley tech companies. Kirsten shares how saboteurs, inner-critics, and imposter syndrome can stall progress - but more importantly, how these limitations are choices, not necessities. Through coaching, many of Kirsten’s clients have learned how to slow down, quiet the inner-critic, and chart a path forward towards what they really want in life and work.
