Julie Santiago Coaching | We Are The WomenReviews of juliesantiago.com

I found We Are The Women when I googled “I hate my job”. I felt completely ridiculous putting that into a search engine. It was a desperate moment, but was not able to break out of a cycle of not putting myself, not only not first, but forgetting to consider myself at all. WATW came up, I rolled my eyes and then decided that the universe may actually be trying to talk to me and what I was doing wasn’t working. I had a discovery call and I felt weak saying I needed help. From the get go the team recognized my pattern and validated that I am not special, weird or alone. It has been some of the hardest work I have done in my life, but the rewards have been incredible. Getting to know myself is uncomfortable because being yourself is not a widely accepted way of being. I am finding that external validation is becoming less important. I have been able to use the techniques to center myself and there are times I can actually feel decades of emotional weight coming off me. For those of you out there who don’t need anyone and can do it all themselves… take a minute to listen to universe and then to Julie, it could actually change your life.

I discovered We are The Women at a time when I thought I was managing it all—working two executive level jobs, caring for aging parents and running our household. But my body was telling me a different story. I was exhausted and completely burned out. Joining Awaken truly changed my life. Through the program, I began to understand how chronic stress and burnout had taken hold and learned practical tools to realign with my core values and find my way back to what truly matters. I am so deeply grateful to the WATW team for their incredible support throughout my awaken journey.

After a few years of going through major life changes (motherhood, new job, cross country move, home ownership) I felt my life start to unravel from the stress I was carrying. Therapy was not helping and I found Julie’s Awaken program and it saved me honestly. It has taught me sustainable tools and also helped me learn and accept a lot more about myself. I’m so grateful for Julie and her teams teachings and how they’ve put together this program that is accessible regardless of location. It’s an investment for sure but I took a chance to improve my daily well being and show up better for my family and work at the time. My employer noticed too and offered to pay for some of it too :)

This program has truly been a game changer for me. It’s an investment in myself, and with the price tag comes real commitment and support. If you’re on the fence but know you’re someone who will put in the work, it really does work!

We Are The Women (WATW) has truly been life-changing for me. I came into Awaken completely burned out, ready to walk away from my job on the spot. WATW gave me the steadiness and hope I needed to pause, listen to myself, and chart my next steps with intention rather than reacting out of pain. Since then, I’ve progressed to Rise and Rise Mastery, and I haven’t regretted a single moment—or a single dollar. Yes, the investment is significant, but it has been worth every penny. My husband, who is very frugal, agrees, because he’s seen the difference firsthand: I’m no longer crying or angry every day, and I finally feel hopeful about building a future grounded in my own maturity and self-knowledge. Julie is a wonderful coach who brings wisdom from her own life, coupled with a gift for distilling big concepts into practical, actionable steps. The other coaches are equally excellent, and it's lovely to be part of a community of accomplished women who understand and support one another. If you’re wavering, take the leap. You won’t regret it.

I joined Awaken in 2022. At that time, I looked like I had it all. I had the money, the promotions, the titles, BUT I also had an empty soul. I thought there was something wrong with me. Why wasn't I happy? I was missing community, connection. What I had was a lot of anger and judgement rooted in the thought that I had to continually hustle for my worth or the world would pass me by. Through the program I learned how to regulate my nervous system. I learned how to give myself permission to take care of myself. I learned to set boundaries and the only thing I sacrificed was the anger and judgement. I show up, live, and lead differently. I show others what is possible. Most importantly I have the community and connection that was missing in my life.

Working with We Are the Women and Julie Santiago has been a transformative experience in various aspects of my life. Thank you Julie for creating and offering We Are the Women!

When I joined WATW, I was burned out, ready to back away from my job. This program was nothing short of life changing. I learned ways to beat burn out, manage my stress, and get back to my true self. I not only am managing by work, but I am now closer than ever to my family. I would recommend this program to any woman. It is worth every penny.
