PAST CLIENTS SAY:

"Jean is a wonderfully gifted coach. I can't say enough about how she took the time to really "see" who I am and what I am trying to do. As a Sales Coach and Leader is amazing to experience the level of care and attention to detail that I received working with Jean. If you have the opportunity to work with Jean, don't hesitate, jump in!”

"Thanks for the LinkedIn Intensive, I learned so much about myself and utilizing LinkedIn in a more focused manner. Would recommend your intensive to anyone!"

"In previous roles, I knew I undervalued myself in accepting offers and shied away from further negotiations; Jean not only helped me by coaching me through the negotiation process but also, as a consequence, gave me a new sense of confidence in the process"

"I gained so much clarity in one session working with Jean! She helped me go from a total LinkedIn novice to feeling clear and confident about how to optimize my profile, grow my audience, and increase engagement with my ideal clients. Jean gets straight to the point, is extremely knowledgeable, and easy to connect with. Even though I haven't implemented all of the strategies I learned, I already have more engagement. I feel like I am further ahead in leveraging the power of LinkedIn to grow my business."

Chief Executive Officer

I help Experts grow their Authority, Income, and Impact. 

We achieve this by:

✔ Leveraging the untapped power of LinkedIn.
✔ Clarifying your Unique Value Proposition, and getting clear on the problem you can solve better than anyone else. 
✔Effectively communicating your UVP so you can attract your ideal clients. 
✔ Clarifying your ideal client and company so you can share what’s important with them.
✔ Authentically share the work you are already doing, and leverage that strategically to grow your authority and become the go-to person.
✔Creating a simple system to show up with consistency to continue to build trust and expand relationships. 


This all sounds very simple.  But it’s not easy.  If it were easy everyone would do it.  

But almost 10/10 people I speak with lack clarity on what makes them unique, what they can do particularly well, and what their clients want to hear from them. 

So they follow 10 different people online and try 10 different ways of doing things, and soon, the business or work they started because they wanted freedom, becomes another thing locking them in.  

If you are ready to simplify and stop doing ALL the things and scale your business and career effectively by focusing on the RIGHT things, I can help.

I work remotely with clients located all over the US and other countries, so your location is not a limiting factor.

Forbes Leadership & Business Certified Coach

A career transition can look different depending on your situation, but the most common scenarios we help clients with include:
✔	moving to a new job in a different company-  same or new industry
✔	going after a promotion within their current company and successfully transitioning into that role
✔	reentering the workforce after a leave.
 
We customize our approach to our clients’ needs by listening to your goals and leveraging our knowledge and practical experience. We have collectively worked as recruiters, hiring managers, and leaders, understand the process from the inside out and have experience working with dozens of dynamic leaders. 
 
Most clients choose to participate in our proprietary 8-step system, which allows our clients to:
✔	learn to let go of past job failures and disappointments and get connected to their purpose
✔	get clarity once and for all about what’s important to them, so they stop chasing every job or promotion they see and instead focus their energy on opportunities that excite them
✔	stand out in the competitive application process by developing their brand based on the unique value they bring to the market
✔	develop the required professional image ideal for their target job and industry, including resume, LinkedIn profile, social media, networking, etc.
✔	effectively communicating the value they bring – in a job interview, networking event, or promotion conversation- without feeling slimy about it
✔	develop the mindset, boundaries, and habits needed to continue to lead into the next levels.

On a case-by-case basis, we also work with clients on short term projects, and a month-by-month basis.

Certified Career Coach helping Leaders & Executives Successfully Execute Career Transitions

Jean Muhlbauer

Certified coach helping Clients define and build their best lives and careers.  

Often we find ourselves chasing "happiness," but happiness, like other feelings, is fleeting.  

What most of us want is fulfillment.  We want to know that we are living in alignment with our values, that what we say matters matches what we spend our time on.  This is no easy feat. 

I help clients build intentionality into their lives- both personal and work lives. This can take many forms and its as individual as people are.  

Some clients work on relationships and others in their work. And regardless of where our work starts, all clients see their work in one area benefit every area of their lives.

At the root of this work is self-care. 

Self-care is not the definition given by the consumerism dictionary, centered around things or services we buy like massages and manicures.  

Self-care at its most basic is about getting curious about what WE want, about what would make US fulfilled (versus what we think SHOULD fulfill us because that's what we've heard or what we see online), and intentionally building a life that fuels that.  

It all sounds simple, but it isn't.  

Why? 

Because most of us have never been taught or even allowed to ask our selves what we want. And as a result, we don't have the skills to do this work on our own and to follow through without second-guessing and letting guilt and shame take over and sabotage our efforts. 

But some of us are brave and have decided that we've had enough of going in circles.  We are ready to do the work to get out of the cycle, even if we don't know where to start.  

If you are here, I can help.

.
.
.
And no, self-care is not selfish.  
If you are fulfilled it is a FACT that you can be of greater service to others.  
But if you have a "voice" telling you taking care of you is selfish, we can work on that too.

Stimulyst

At Stimulyst, our mission is to stimulate economic growth and catalyze social change by accelerating the success of B2B tech-enabled firms led by underrepresented founders.

***
The 12% Accelerator (powered by Stimulyst) is the world's only accelerator that's obsessively focused on empowering women-led tech-enabled consulting firms to build sales & business infrastructure that wins corporate deals.

Less than 12% of women-owned firms achieve 6-figures in revenue. We are the 12%.

The 12% Accelerator is the fastest and most effective path to building a foundation for revenue growth with corporate clients. Our unparalleled immersive program has been intentionally designed for women entrepreneurs who are done with being the "only" in the room, who lead busy lives and who are ready to create an impact that yields an increase in income. 

***
The 4% Fellowship (powered by Stimulyst) is a 12-month fellowship supporting women founders of high-growth B2B tech-enabled firms.

Less than 4% of women-owned firms achieve 7 figures in annual revenue. Less than 1% of women of color founders achieve 7 figures in annual revenue.

As a black-woman-owned 7-figure firm, we relate to the unique challenges and isolation that women experience upon reaching this level.

The 4% Fellowship supports these women who have achieved this rare feat (as well as women founders on track to reaching it) and normalizes their journey through masterminding, strategic planning, community and leadership development.

Digital has disrupted how your clients make purchasing decisions.

With unprecedented access, buyers are empowered to self-educate and make faster, more informed decisions.

To be successful in today’s market, you need to align with your buyer's behavior and be well-positioned where they’re looking to find you… 📲online.

DID YOU KNOW:
📌80% of B2B leads come from LinkedIn? (Forbes)
📌57% of the B2B purchase decision is complete before a buyer even calls a supplier? (CEB)
📌67% of the B2B buyer’s journey is now done digitally? (SiriusDecisions)
📌84% of C-suite executives use LinkedIn to make purchasing decisions?  (IDC Research)
 
Have you noticed that your traditional tactics no longer reap your expected business outcomes?

It’s time to modernize your sales & marketing efforts and embrace the digital age!

💡1. I work with organizations looking to modernize their business development efforts.

💡2. I help women experts & consultants land corporate clients in an effort to shatter the revenue disparity plaguing women entrepreneurs.

🥇As a speaker and trainer, organizations have rated my workshop as their #1 program based on attendee feedback. 

I pride myself on delivering inspiring, engaging, actionable and FUN training programs that produce revenue results.

In my corporate career, I cut my teeth in sales through cold calling and door-to-door prospecting. I then went on to manage retail territories, sell outpatient medical to pharmacists & physicians, produce as a field sales agent at a Fortune 50 company & more.

However, it was while leading sales & marketing as a Chief Growth Officer for a consulting firm that I saw the critical importance of aligning both sales and marketing to digital strategies for unprecedented revenue growth.

My firm's proprietary framework has helped clients close millions of dollars in new business.

As a digital enthusiast, my mind is blown by the capabilities that technology now provides us.

However, none of that means anything without emotional intelligence, business acumen, authority positioning & authentic relationship-building.

We are all in the business of PEOPLE.

As a student of the old-school who has been baptized by the new school, I deliver solutions that merge the best of both worlds.

Happy Women’s Entrepreneurship Day to my favorite kind of woman,
the woman who knows her brilliance has a price tag 🤭.

The woman who negotiates without apologizing.
The woman who gets in rooms she wasn’t “supposed” to be in.
The woman who is learning the skill of landing bigger clients, bigger contracts, and bigger checks.

Happy Women’s Entrepreneurship Day 
to every woman building something bigger than herself.

To the women who turn ideas into income.
Courage into companies.
And vision into vehicles that change families, communities, and industries.

This path is NOT easy.
But every invoice sent, every contract closed, every boundary held, every pivot made is a testament to your resilience, your skill, and your evolution. 

Here’s to the women who refuse to shrink.
Here’s to the women who build.
And here’s to the women who are just getting started.

Women are driving the fastest-growing segment of entrepreneurship.
And when women earn more, families stabilize, communities expand, and wealth shifts.

To every woman doing the internal work, the strategic work, and the revenue-generating work:
I see you.
And I’m cheering for your next move.

Keep going.
The world rises when we do.

Experts & Consultants: "The Shift Isn’t Strategy”

Most six-figure entrepreneurs think they need better strategy to scale.
But what they actually need is an identity shift.

That’s why I’m inviting you to attend the 7-Figure Shift Workshop 
with one of the most powerful women I know: 
Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon.

Over 3 transformational days, she’s going to walk you through why your strategy keeps stalling, and how to shift from striving and 
survival into overflow and ease.

This isn’t another funnel training.

It’s a full-body recalibration rooted in science, 
spiritual principles, and somatic practices. 

And it’s completely free.

If you’re stalled at six figures (especially in this economy) 
and ready for your next level… this is your invitation.
