Strawberry.meReviews of strawberry.me

Three sessions later and my view of the workplace I’m in did a 180, there is so much more nuance than you’d expect when you’re not happy with your job. Turns out my outlook was hurting me equal to, if not more, than the job overall. My coach has been exceptional about extracting what is already good about who I am at work and then building on that. This has been way more insightful and helpful than I expected from an instagram ad.

I will admit, after seeing an ad for strawberry.me on Instagram I was a bit skeptical, but when I was suddenly forced into an unexpected career change, I thought what do I have to lose? It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. My coach is thoughtful and considerate. She challenges me and encourages me to explore who I am both as an employee and as a human. When they say it's therapy for your career, that's exactly what it is. This is so much more than a resume review or interviewing strategy. Strawberry.me encourages me to understand ME and to bring my best self into my next career opportunity. Now, I tell everyone I know about this service!

From the initial sign-up and intake, the process is straightforward. The questionnaire about your reasons for looking for a coach and your expectations is clear and avoids the typical pop-psychology type of questions. What Strawberry.me also does well is that you can define your preference for the kind of coach you are looking for, including those who are specialized or have experience with your character type, which is especially important if you are neurodivergent. You also always have the opportunity to switch your coach if you feel there is a mismatch. The entire system is built well, making it easy to follow the process. Notifications and reminders for your next session are sent at the right time and never feel excessive. My experience with Strawberry.me has been great. I was surprised that my coach had actually read and understood what I wrote during the initial intake, and then built the sessions and adjusted their communication style accordingly. What really makes Strawberry.me different from my other coaching and therapy experiences is that there are in-between check-ins, which makes you feel supported instead of being left waiting until your next session. Overall, if you are looking for a place to find your path, whether in your career or life in general, Strawberry.me is absolutely worth a try.

Career coaching is new to me and although I haven't had many sessions, the few that I have had have been profound. I'm learning more about who I am. I'm being challenged (in a good way). I feel a positive accountability from my coach and I want to become a better version of myself so I can be more fulfilled in my career. If you feel lost, burnout, or unfulfilled in your career, I recommend coaching. It can bring clarity and boost your confidence. Try it.

I lost track of how many sessions I have had with Paru, on this last session we had, she asked me how do I feel compared to when I started? That’s an easy answer! I am not 100% yet, but most definitely I am not at the bottom of the hole! I felt sad, confused, disappointed and knew that I needed help! I needed a guide, I needed to vent, I needed support, I wanted some clarity with my thoughts but doing it alone is difficult. I’m grateful I have the support of my beautiful family and friends and having someone outside of my inner circle giving me honest feedback and guiding me thru the hard time until I started to feel better. I am grateful for Paru and her wisdom and vision to help me navigate my feelings, emotions, and options that I now see that I have. There is always an option and there is always help available if you look for it!

Pretty self-opinionated, insensitive coach. Prepetually deflects responsibility to coach by stating 'don't rely on me for improvement.' Emotional health strugglers require concrete emotional support, including from a "personal coach." Not constant evasion of responsibilities, and petty finger pointing for being absent to a single session. Bedside manner rating for my coach is a Zero. It comes down to these personal coaches don't share empathy for their clients who simultaneously might be patients that are emotionally, spiritually, and/or mentally bleeding and hurting.

The coach I’m paired with is amazing, and she does an amazing job in helping bit my career and personal life! I’d recommend it for anyone who loves to self reflect but needs some sort of guided assistance to kickstart any goals you hope to achieve!

Strawberry.me matched me with the coach I needed to go further. I like the strong ethic, the quality of the service provided so far and I'm very happy to have a coach on my team. Garrett has a very great talent at listening, then analysing and asking THE question I needed to go further. Each session feel very valuable.
